Northwest LARPers Ban Appeal Process v. 2010419.8
A person who has been banned form Shadow Accord may ask for an appeal after a minimum of one year from when the ban was placed. Once the person has told the Executive Officers officially and in writing that they are asking for an appeal, there will be a post created in the General Game Information forum asking current players for any input on this person to be sent privately to the Executive Officers via private message (PM). No information will be considered via any other electronic means including Dear Abbot. The person in question who is applying may also, if they so choose, gather character witnesses and heads of other local LARPs to give input on their behalf. All this information may be released privately to the rest of staff to verify it, when it is is reasonable to do so, and will be released directly to the person who submitted the appeal. At no time will names go on a record. Only the Executive Officers will know who provided what information. If it is deemed relevant who submitted what then the Executive officers will ask that individual if they are ok with sharing their name.
After at least a month of gathering information, the Executive Officers will bring the information to the next regularly scheduled Heads of Staff meeting. (These meetings occur within two weeks of event dates, both before and after.) They will review and discuss the information and then vote whether or not to allow the person a second chance. Each Executive Officer and Head of Staff gets one vote. (8 votes) A vote in favor must have 3/4 super majority to allow the person to return to Shadow Accord. (6 votes: Abstaining from voting or missing the meeting is considered a no vote)
If the vote does not pass, the person may reapply in one year but if their appeals are rejected one more time the ban becomes final. In the case of a ban in place for breaking state or Federal law, or in a case where the BSA does not allow the person on their property, an appeal will not be considered.
