DU Community Help

But not always immediately. If your appeal is approved, you will be notified, but if it is denied, you will not. I don't respond to appeals, I only approve or deny them, so when appealing, you should review the rule that your post was removed for and explain why you think it doesn't break the rule, and why it should be restored.

When considering why your post might have been removed, make sure to review the entire rule, including the "Why we have this rule" section, and not just the title of the rule. You can find the rules at the Terms of Service link at the bottom of every page.

With that said, I generally do not discuss post removals or appeals publicly or privately, so I'm going to lock this thread now.

EDITED TO ADD: When I review appeals, I judge removed posts against ALL the rules, not just the one it was removed for. So if, for example, you posted something that was meant to be sarcastic, and a Jury removed it because they incorrectly thought it broke a particular rule, I might restore it. But I won't restore the post if it also breaks one of the other rules.
