"What to do if you've been banned" sticky - Discussion thread

Thank you very much, citanul, for the sticky, above.

I am certain a few ATFers will want to chat about it for a while, so here's the place to do it.

There really should be a way to get in touch with a mod when you are banned

Like mods should have to have a public discord or an email address or something


A way to contact mods through Email or Discord. I'm sure that channel would receive lots of coherent, mature and relevant messages (NOT)

If you get banned or tempbanned, you are not aupposed to make or use a gimmick, not supposed to make others make an atf thread, but feel free to reach out to the mod who banned you even though you have no way to reach out to him or her as the case may be

I believe you can't pm on a new account

The sticky clearly says we should not make a new account but instead to contact the mod that banned you

So it is impossible to contact the mod that banned you without breaking that rule and even then I'm not sure you can pm him

So maybe a general mod email address to email to try to plead your



So as i said, an email address, something, whatever but there should be a way to get a message to the mod
