Standard Offer: Difference between revisions

When a CollabVM user gets hit with a site ban or an indefinite block, one of the things they usually wonder is where things go from there. Is there any way to return to good standing? Or are they on the outs forever?

The standard offer is not binding, but it is usually the first step before we will consider an unblockunban.

* After you have waited six months, contact the administrators, either through the [[CollabVM Discord]], the [https://computernewb.com/collab-vm/chat.html IRC Server] (#collabvm), or [http://mailto:[email protected] via email].

The standard offer applies to bans in situations where things just didn't work out: normal people, short fuses, etc. It doesn't extend to extremes, and it is ultimately up to the administrators (on a case-by-case basis) whether the blocked or banned editoruser is eligible at all. Generally speaking, if the police could have become involved, then this offer doesn't apply.

The six-month threshold can be adjustable under special circumstances. If ana editorbanned user shows an unusually good insight into the circumstances that led to the ban, and sets out a credible proposal for how they will deal with those issues in future, then a return might be considered sooner.
