What is an Appeal?
An appeal asks a server or department to take another look at an infraction or suspension you received.
You can appeal anything that hasn't been voided or expired, as long as the server or department is accepting appeals. If it isn't, the appeal page tells you.
Submitting an Appeal
- Find it
Open Infractions, pick the server or department and click the scales icon on the row. See Infractions Table.
- Check the details
The top of the page shows who issued it, when, the reason and the points.
- Answer the questions
Fill in the Appeal Form. Questions with an asterisk are required.
- Send it
Click Submit appeal.
After You Submit
Your appeal stays pending until staff review it, and you can only have one pending for each infraction or suspension. To check on it, click the scales icon on the same row.
Melonly DMs you when it's reviewed if Receive DMs for Infractions is on in your Notification Preferences.
| Result | What it means |
|---|---|
| Approved | The infraction or suspension is voided, so its points no longer count. An active suspension also ends |
| Denied | It stays in place. You may be able to appeal again |
| Discarded | Staff closed the appeal without a decision |
If your appeal was denied or discarded, the scales icon opens a page showing who reviewed it and their response.
Appealing Again
If your appeal was denied and the server or department accepts re-appeals, that page shows Appeal again.
Some also set a cooldown, counted from when your last appeal was reviewed. The button stays locked until it's over, and a notice shows when you can appeal again.
