An information page describes the wiki's customs, technicalities or practices.
When a user is blocked or has an edit prevented by the Abuse Filter, they have the right to submit an appeal to be reviewed by the Administrators on the Wiki staff team. This page outlines how to submit an appeal, valid reasons to appeal a block, and some common questions users have about blocks.
How to Appeal[]
To appeal a block or an Abuse Filter interruption on the Hypixel SkyBlock Wiki, the preferred method is through the Wiki Discord by following the steps below. Alternatively, you can fill out this Google Form. All appeals made through these two methods are handled confidentially, meaning these appeals are only visible to you and the wiki admins.

Common Questions[]
- How do I appeal a ban or mute from Hypixel?
This is the wrong place to appeal a ban or mute from Hypixel. Instead, read the instructions at https://hypixel.net/appeal. The Hypixel SkyBlock Wiki is not affiliated with Hypixel, so admins on this wiki cannot remove any mutes or bans on Hypixel's servers or forums.
- Can I just create a new account?
No. Do not create new accounts if you are blocked. This is called Sockpuppetry, and it is a severe policy violation.
- I didn't break any rules, so why am I blocked?
There are a few reasons why you may be blocked without doing anything wrong. In these cases, the problem is almost always resolved quickly with an appeal. The most common reasons are false positives from the Abuse Filter and autoblocks.
- What is a block?
A block is a technical measure that prevents a User account or IP address from editing. This is done to prevent them from damaging the Wiki further.
Reasons to Appeal[]
- Abuse Filter False Positive
The Abuse Filter automatically checks every edit, and it has the power to block users that make disruptive edits. However, it sometimes has false positives. If you were blocked by the Abuse Filter and were editing in good faith, you can appeal your block. An administrator will review your edit, and if they agree that you weren't being disruptive, they will unblock you. Administrators can also publish any filtered changes at their discretion.
- Unfair Block
If a block was not made in response to a blockable offense, meaning it was not made in accordance with the Blocking Policy, you may appeal the block. If the administrator reviewing your appeal agrees that you shouldn't have been blocked, they will unblock you.
- Autoblock
Autoblocks are blocks applied to IP addresses that blocked editors have used. Any users, even when logged in, are not able to edit from these IP addresses. If you are inadvertently caught in an autoblock, simply explain this to the reviewing admin. They will review your contributions and remove the autoblock.
- Second Chance
If you understand why you were blocked and you will not do it again, you can appeal, and an administrator might remove your block. However, if you are disruptive again, you will receive a new block with a longer duration.
