Just so everyone knows, the proper procedure for appealing a ban is to send a private message to one of the moderators or administrators. A private message can be sent by clicking on a member's profile picture and pressing the link that says, "Start a Conversation".
Also, only the player in question needs to send a message. We don't need other people appealing on their behalf. Be aware that an appeal is more than simply asking nicely for the ban to be lifted. You must make a sound argument with reasonable explanations and evidence where applicable.
