-1. Why do we need to further promote toxicity on the forums? Sure some of the appeals are hackers and deserve the ban but how does the toxicity help the community look? It's bad enough that one user continues to have responses deleted in ban appeals yet this is posted in the heading:
If you are not the person that was banned/muted, you are only allowed to post evidence. Trash talk is unnecessary
I'll mention that there have been times when the assumption from this user was wrong and the ban was actually lifted.
Looking at another TF2 community, ban appeals have much less drama. A banned user appeals and admins reply. No public bashing from responses to the post to status posts. As an outsider, that looks more appealing then what regularly goes down here.
Besides, what's wrong with the box?
