Please read the following before posting your appeal. If you do not post your appeal in the correct place or using the correct format, your appeal may be delayed or denied! The required format and template are located below.
All Unturned appeals should be posted under the appeals section. Users can only see appeals that they have submitted, so this page may appear blank if you don't have an active ban or warn appeal.
YOU SHOULD INDICATE IF YOU ARE APPEALING A BAN OR WARNING IN THE TITLE OF YOUR APPEAL
Guidelines and Requirements
When posting an appeal do not be disrespectful towards the staff that warned or banned you. This will result in your appeal being denied. Depending on the severity, violators may lose their ability to appeal future bans or warns on the network.
Be as honest and sincere as you can. Try to include as much relevant information as possible.
Don't be afraid to own up to your mistakes. A much stronger appeal acknowledges the actions that led up to a ban or warning and demonstrates remorse.
Do not post a warn appeal if you were banned due to warnings. You should post a ban appeal instead.
Server, Global, or Network Bans
Most bans are the result of a server ban. These bans can be appealed immediately following a ban being issued.
If you are unsure of what type of ban you have, if your ban reason says "Network Banned" you must submit your appeal in the Global & Network Ban Appeals section. If you see a reason behind your ban, you can submit an appeal here.

Network Rules The Smithtainment Gaming Network consists of several game servers. While each server has its own rules and staff members, the entire network also has its own independent rules.
You are expected to read and understand these rules. Ignorance of the rules is not an acceptable excuse.
PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT YOU NEED TO USE COMMON SENSE WHILE PLAYING ON OUR SERVER (unless you’re fooling around then tell the Administrators/Moderators). If there are very few people online we don’t care if you mess around as long as the people online agree.

Racism offenses WILL result in a PERMANENT ban.
Building inside marked locations is allowed, however, cutting off an entire location is NOT allowed. Ex: Blocking off every entrance to a city, military base, airport, etc. Your build WILL be demolished by staff.
Toxicity is partially tolerated, but harrassment is NOT. Be respectful to all players – either in the server – or in our Discord. You will only receive ONE warning.
Group size is set to (5) members only. Anything larger is NOT allowed.
Falsely reporting individuals on the server in order to receive an advantage on the server is STRICTLY forbidden. Depending on the severity of the reported offense, punishment may vary from a server ban to a network ban.
You MUST speak ENGLISH in server-wide chats, however, speaking your preferred language is permitted in proximity chat or party chats, as long as you are easily understood by those around you.
Chat spamming is NOT allowed. If you’re curious as to what counts as chat spam please ask a staff member.
You WILL be alerted when a server is wiped. PLEASE do NOT ask staff members or the Owner when the next wipe is as we don’t have a set schedule.
