How long for an answer on a ban appeal? Who decides the lenght of the ban?

[SaMartok (NL)]

Hello,

I`m actually banned at the moment for a week (first ban), which is in my eyes an absurd amount of time considering the offence. (car + trailer)

I`ve been away from the game for quit some time because I was bored with it. (last time I played it was still ETS2MP, not truckers MP)

Last sunday evening I had a no jobs problem, so I went to buy a truck to do the sleep solution.

To my surprise I could by a car, so I did. Jeez, I wonder, does it actually accept a trailer?

Went to a company, picked the shortest route, and voila, you can. Wow.

Apperantly, it was actually against the rules. Oops.

But why ban someone for a week for this. I wasn`t trolling or anything.

Look, I understand the need to punish someone for breaking the rules and I accept that.

Believe me, if a was kicked, I would have gotten the message.

Now i`ve got a ban in my history for what....

And no answer in sight on the appeal.

How long does it normally take for an answer from the moderator?

And who decides the lenght on this kind of ban?

1. How long for answer? This can be up to a few days
2. Administrators choose ban lengths

You have to remember,only the admin that banned you can review your appeal, and in some cases, this period of time can vary depending on the activity of the admin. And on another point, it's admins that review ban appeals, not moderators. 

 

Just be patient

Examination of the appeal may take several days. About length ban admin decides, taking into account the nature of the offense and the number of your bans on the card if it is the fourth ban or more.
Admin also handles appeals.
If you think the ban was imposed not rightly have the right to appeal it to the e-mail [email protected].

Well, it is 4 days by now and still no reply from RayRay5 on my appeal.

I`m actually getting quit frustrated about this.

You`ve been away for years, your back in the game for less then 24 hours and you get banned for a week.

Never been banned before, maybe kicked for 3 or 4 times years ago.

I find this quit unfair, especcialy when it takes this long to get an answer.

4 days on a week ban, you would almost wonder if it has any use appeal in the first place.

Look I understand Admins have more to do than ETS2, but common.

 

So I will quote the 3 messages I send in the appeal publicly, in the hopes that this ban be resolved as quickly as possible.

I had never seen that I could buy a car in MP. Had a no jobs issue, bought the car to go to a hotel. Was curious on how it would look, a car with trailer. A specifficaly took the shortest job available. Ok, it is against the rules, but i didn`t know. It is my first offence. And really??? A WEEK???

May I ask why you actually banned me, instead of a kick?

You must remember that admins have lives also like yourself and once they can they will reply.  

 

There are also others with ban appeals so they need to go through them all.

 

And you should also read the rules.  Even though it was a small offence it is still a bannable offence and the website that the ban is at the discretion of the admins.
