Going forward, all Discord punishments can be appealed here. Depending on the severity of your offense, we reserve the right to deny your appeal (ex: posting porn or blatant death threats) however in most cases we will look over and review your appeal. Normally, bans aren't given out easily by our staff, but this thread is here for those who wish to come back or if you believe our staff have made an error in judgement.

Ban appeal replies are regularly removed some time after they have been reviewed and the end user has seen the result of their appeal.

My discord account was momentarily broken into by a link I clicked and a discord server invite was being spammed to all my direct messages and servers I was in, including HaloCustoms. I fixed the problem and it won't happen again. Please unban me so I can join back. My discord username is MildewyBacon632#6280.

My discord account also was broken into temporarily, sending everyone and every server to join a NSFW server. I changed passwords and already have 2-step authenticator. As of now, I have cleared everything and no damage was done. My discord is GreekDamian#0493. It will never happen again. Thanks.

To those this may concern,

I'm sorry about my behaviour of last year. Can I get one more chance? I promise to be nice.

Regards,
Ms. Dina Kitty Burger

was banned from halo customs server for trying to recruit people for halo infinite an mcc non completive clan, was just looking to get people together to have some fun but was banned for in his case "spamming" no verbal warning nothing just a bot that didn't explain anything it said mater chief was the bot but no explanation on what the reason was, how was I truly supposed to know. tried another channel an without a verbal warning from a real person I just get banned with this awful excuse, and with all do respect an answer/ reason like this is totally Un logical unprofessional. I do apologize for the inconvenience. but would it be okay to get unbanned, I have made a lot of friends on this discord over the years. I will not sent any halo recruitment messages anymore. but with all do respect, you should have an admin give a verbal warning instead of just relying on "taking the hint."

reason i was banned ---
"HaloCustoms: You have been Banned
Reason: Has been making spam posts about their clan for weeks across multiple channels. I've just been deleting the messages when I see them as they are a forum member but they just won't take the hint

If you would like to appeal your ban head over to our ban appeal mega-thread.

in the red above is the reasoning.

Hello, I had read that my account has been banned due to my age. I don't remember what I put down as my date of birth, but I intend on correcting it. May I get instructions on how to do that and can my ban be lifted?

You probably said your age in chat, underage user in a public discord can result in the discord being deleted. let me get your discord user name for verification.

1.) You did receive a warning. --Please review our ⁠rules , especially 5. "Refrain from advertising, self-promotion or posting spam. Spamming in this case involves pasting the same question in multiple channels. You were given an answer in ⁠modding-chat already. (which was the one proper place to ask)
2.) All discord ban for fishing members
3.) Your name was cancer to find in the logs
4.) We have a life btw, were not calling you to tell you to stop doing something.

In future the "I didn't do nothing" excuse doesn't work. Denied as of now.

My account was banned over a year ago. DampedCookie, known troll, had been over the top which led to inflammatory chats in Halo Game chat. Nothing was typed in the discord server itself. DampedCookie took screenshots of the Halo Game chats and posted them in the discord text channels as a means to troll me and intentionally get me banned.

My discord username is: mrgarboman

I'd like to start by saying I appreciate you taking the time to appeal through official channels, however, there is a glaring issue with this appeal that you need to address before we can consider unbanning you.

In your appeal, you place the majority of the blame on DampedCookie, but when it comes down to the issue this is regarding you and not him. The reason you were banned was not the occasional heated moment, you were banned for spamming racial slurs in chat which offended another user enough to report you for it. You seem to pass this off as a non-issue in the appeal which does not give me any confidence that you will not simply repeat this behavior the first time you get heated in a lobby. This is the issue that needs to be addressed and not some sort of trolling or bad blood between you and Cookie.

Something to note is that this event did not happen in the Halo Customs discord. I've never spammed racial slurs in the discord server, nor do I wish to do so. The event in which I was banned was done maliciously by known trolls in the server who took out of context screenshots from in-game chat. We weren't even in VC, the event was unrelated to the Halo Customs Discord server, save for the fact that I was being trolled by other members of the server.

If you still feel that my ban should continue to be in place despite this, then there isn't much more that can be done.

All I was requesting from you was to acknowledge that the reason you were banned was for posting racial slurs and for you to assure us that you will not repeat this behavior. I feel like that is not some sort of outrageous request.

I do admit that I did post slurs in-game, that's how the screenshots I referenced were grabbed in the first place. It was then spammed all over the server by those who wished to get me banned (which seemingly worked, the trolls won and I was banned).

I do not intend to do things in the server that would intentionally offend or upset anyone, I genuinely just want to play Halo Customs with a cool crowd again. I shouldn't have posted slurs in-game in the first place.

I take it that the non-response indicates a rejection to my appeal?
