I got a question, I was posting in a fairly old sticky topic. So that is considered gravedigging too huh? I assumed it was just reviving old topics. I didn't know sticky topics were included in that group.
I want to appeal a warning I got, but no admin every replies to PMs. Warlord still hasn't read my PMs from two years ago or something, neither has the other ones in power.
you cant appeal a warning. it's a fucking warning.
Even if you could, War Lord is not the person you should appeal to. Try appealing directly to the person that gave you the warning, or an active senior moderator.
Read the rules, because you can.Quote:

DO NOT request an appeal by creating topics in the public forums. Any such topic will be closed and the member's ban extended
As for the matter at hand: the warning stands. There, your appeal has been heard by an Administrator and rejected. Have a nice day.
LOL there's no point in appealling a warning because as long as you don't do anything else wrong than it's not a problem. Appeal when.. er if you get banned...
The chain of command is there to help you. This may be hard to swallow so allow me to loosen your gag reflex. 90% of the time a moderator will be more understanding-possibly even lenient-than the higher staff. You have to understand that when an administrator looks at you, he or she does not see a beautiful misunderstood soul, they see a piece of meat that in all probability tastes better marinated in barbeque sauce and grilled.
But that is just my advice.
(so the topics out of date, I have trouble with paying attention. I never see anything interesting in announcements anyway.)
Warnings are an official recommendation that you shape up; they're not punitive by nature, so what's the point of appealing them?
Besides, about the only people who get banned these days are advertisers and members who go out of their way to antagonize the rest of the forums. If by some strange twist of events you accumulate enough warnings for a ban, that would be the time to file an appeal.
