How to Become Unbanned From a Site

Being banned on a website is a tough situation. Moderators often overreact to users who didn't mean to send the wrong message. The most commonly misinterpreted activity is spam. Reaching out to the right people to get unbanned is easy and it can even be profitable if you are banned from a business website. All of these activities should involve simple and direct communications with the website administrator. Normally you can get unbanned provided your postings didn't involve criminal or pornographic communications.

Things You'll Need

• Internet Access
• Computer

Instructions

1. Review the website to find an email address for the website administrator. Often these addresses are on the "Contact Us" website tab or the "About Us" tab. The most important of these addresses are those marked administrator or webmaster. These two specific addresses are those of a person who can renew your website membership.

2. Frame your email to the administrator in a respectful manner. Whenever possible try to use the real name of the person instead of "administrator" or webmaster. Create a full paragraph explaining the situation and asking to be let back on the website. Write with humility.

3. Proofread your message and ask for the opinions of others. Rework the message until you find it satisfactory. Often you only get one chance to make a good impression with a website administrator. It is important to provide the right feel and mood to your writing.

4. Send your message to the website administrator. Wait for a response. If none is received in three days, write a follow-up notice about your website status. This is crucial to letting the administrator know that you are serious and would like to be back on the website.

Tips & Warnings

• Never threaten website administrators.

• Never try to hack into a website to become unbanned.
