not a ban appeal but it does relate to my ban. I do want to explain myself (not excuse myself just elaborate) and ask a few questions. I dont have any other way of contacting joee other than maybe the forums. 

If you put your questions here, then someone can answer your questions.

alright first question: If the original server burnt down than how come it still has my first ban recorded from like 3 years ago (this is just my general curiosity)

Logs are kept of all banned players, so when the server was burnt down, bans were re-applied.

Just to add to this, we kept database backups from the server which included all player bans. Therefore when we had to set the new machine up after the fire we were able to set the database up using th most recent backup we had

ahhh yeah that makes sense
