Rules Enforcement
At Pyrewing, we believe in transparency. Below you'll find exactly what happens when rules are broken. Every offense has a clear escalation path — staff apply these consistently. No surprises.
Punishments reset after 90 days of clean behavior unless otherwise noted. Offenses marked with ⚠ are zero-tolerance and may skip escalation entirely.

Important Notes
- Offenses marked with ⚠ are zero-tolerance and may skip escalation.
- Repeated offenses within 24 hours of the last punishment may result in doubled duration.
- Punishment history resets after 90 days of clean behavior (except permanent bans).
- Staff reserve the right to adjust punishments based on severity and context.
- All punishments are logged and auditable. We believe in accountability.
Appeals
If you believe a punishment was issued unfairly, you may submit a ban appeal from the Hall of Shame page. The appeal form is available under the "Ban Appeal" tab when your account is banned.
- All bans at Pyrewing are issued with proof. If staff are unable to provide proof within 48 hours of your appeal, you will be unbanned.
- Appeals are reviewed by senior staff and require a mandatory written decision (approval or rejection with reason).
- After a decision, a cooldown period (default 30 days) applies before you may submit another appeal.
- You may only appeal bans on your own account.
- Any proof provided during the appeal process may be used as evidence in the event of a payment dispute.
- Initiating a chargeback or payment dispute constitutes a permanent ban with no possibility of appeal or reversal.
For general questions about punishments, you can reach out via the Hall of Shame page or our Discord server.
Public Blacklist
Accounts that commit severe or repeated violations may be placed on the Public Blacklist. Blacklisted accounts are permanently removed from Pyrewing with no possibility of appeal or reinstatement. The blacklist is maintained by staff and is separate from the regular ban system.
