Due to its decentralized nature, this forum provides a fair environment for all individuals. I anticipate that everyone will receive a second chance, including myself. Despite making several appeals, my account has remained banned for over 4 years.
You are appealing to get your account banned as 4 years have passed since you did plagiarism, but i would not be surprise if you remain banned for another 100 years with your account remains to be banned. With plagiarism, don't expect that you will be unbanned after certain number of years. You ban was permanent so it will remain permanent.
If theymos started to unban people based upon the time period, then you know every other banned account would appeal to give them the second chance and it would not serve any good purpose to the forum.
