Hypixel SkyBlock Wiki:Block Appeal Guidelines

Hello! This is the guide to appealing blocks.

You may be blocked because

 * You may be an innocent victim of collateral damage, where you are accidentally affected by a block of some other user.
 * Alternatively, your account or IP may have been blocked because it appears to have been responsible for (or connected to) a serious breach of policies.

Core information
To appeal a block, you, as the blocked editor, is responsible to convince the administrator that:
 * The block was not necessary, meaning that the block violates our blocking policy, or that you were mistakenly blocked, or
 * The block was no longer necessary because you understood why you were blocked, and would not do it again, or
 * That your conduct, in the case of an IP block, was not responsible for the block. (Accidentally got caught in an IP block)

FAQ

 * What is a block?
 * A block is a technical measure, that makes an account, or an IP unable to edit. This is done to prevent that user, or IP from damaging the wiki even further.
 * Does an "indefinite" block mean forever?
 * No, an indefinite block does not mean forever, it simply means however long the editor takes to address the issue.
 * I have done nothing wrong! Why am I blocked?
 * VPNs and proxies are disabled due to frequent abuse, and you may be using an IP of a blocked editor. Don't worry, if you appeal, this will be resolved very quickly.
 * It says I've been "autoblocked" because of another person whom I don't even know!
 * Autoblocks are blocks that are placed on IPs that a blocked editor used. In most cases, it is usually collateral damage.

How to appeal
To appeal a block, you need to join our discord (faster), or appeal on our [Http://hsw-otrs.site OTRS] (slower). On the discord, you should go to  and click/press the pushpin on the top left corner, and read the messages that pop up. You may need to scroll down. On the OTRS, press "open a new ticket", then fill out the forms, with the department as "unblock", if asked.

Arbitration Enforcement Blocks
Arbitration Enforcement Blocks, frequently abbreviated as AEB, is a block that is placed by the Arbitration Committee, to enforce a decision. To appeal an AEB, you must directly contact the arbitration committee, either on the discord, at, while pinging  , with your username and your block ID.

Bans
There are two types of bans. If it is an ArbCom ban, it needs to be appealed to ArbCom, in the same process as arbitration enforcement blocks. If it is a community ban, please contact an administrator, who will start a discussion, regarding your ban.
