DISREGARD THIS then, old news I suppose.

Please do not send personal or identifying information to anyone, admin or otherwise.

We really no longer ask this of players because it's dangerous to ask a player to self-dox even to a minor extent to prove something over a video game ban.

as mentioned before, theres no real way to verify when your birthday is since its a matter of (well-justified) policy to avoid asking for personal information

given this is the second time you've made this appeal in such a short period of time and how the prior conversaions went, it's really hard to take your word that you're just now turning 18, since you said the same thing in the last appeal

i'd be willing to lower the ban duration to 6 months if headmins are okay with that since there's at least a 50% chance you actually would be 18 by then (assuming you actually are 17 now) but for now i don't see this ban being lifted

all that said there are plenty of other servers out there and id highly recommend you search around for some, im sure you'll find a good tg alternative

so its denied? i know theres no real way to prove im 18. i really just wanna play today nothing else to do. if its a no its fine. but it would be cool

As Nianjiilical has suggested I would like to step in and endorse to split the difference. Please appeal again in 6 months instead of the regular 12 months. Proving age is tricky while still respecting everybody's anonymity and puts us in an odd position. While I know it is no solace to the current ban but I hope it makes waiting a little easier.

Godspeed for now space cowboy.
