My friend bigbrianman (who I know in real life), was using a vpn and got banned for “sharing his account” is that a perma ban? He submitted a apeal but how long will that take to be read?

The Scratch Team gets a lot of appeals, so it may take several weeks to receive a response.

This is my forum signature! On a forum post, it is okay for Scratchers to advertise in their forum signature. The signature is the stuff that shows up below the horizontal line on the post. It will show up on every post I make.

I was a Scratch Team member from May 10th 2019 to October 29th 2021.

It is quite odd how you ban people immediately without question (even for something not harmful, like “suspected sharing of an account” and then the best you can offer for a appeal is multiple weeks.) I understand that the scratch team is small and a nonprofit, but I still think that it does not make much sense. Best regards.
