Ooooooh you just had to rub it in that you passed me by like 100 on /mctop didn't ya? XD
Anyways, I don't think this is the case. On another server that I used to play on, a member was banned for griefing. But one year later appealed and wanted to come back. Their appeal was accepted of course, the mods thinking they had a change of heart.
So there's proabably a 1/50 chance of someone appealing after a month of being banned. Maybe we can vault their mctop stats, much like their house/items? Then again, that's a lot of work for #lazyrich.
