I’m excited to share updates on the NexTech Ban Appeal Center, evolving since Nov 10, 2024. We’ve focused on creating a robust, transparent, and user-friendly appeal system with in-game NPC guidance and real-time board display.

4.0 (2025 Major Overhaul)

4.0 – Major overhaul for improved appeal system usability and transparency:

  • Added logging of canceled attempts for monitoring players who exit before starting an appeal.
  • All NPC messages, including greetings, group checks, and questions, now appear on the board in real time.
  • Historical appeal questions are scrollable on the board for reference during the session.
  • New warnings for repeated spammers; multiple failed attempts trigger clear guidance before kicking.
  • Dynamic board text scaling for long questions or answers; ensures neat, readable display.
  • Improved session handling: board clears automatically after completion or cancellation.
  • Enhanced anti-spam and seat-spam timers for fair detection while allowing normal interaction.
  • Group check messages show before the appeal starts to ensure players meet requirements.
  • Canceling before appeal now exits safely without kicking.
  • Minor UI/UX improvements for a smoother visual experience and a readable board display.
  • When Staff Join the Center, the Owner & Developers get the Hammer by their name only, not admins & other staff, and also.

You receive a Welcome Badge from the center upon joining. We are working on more within our center. When you are ranked in the game, you’ll be placed on a team, and also if you’re still in game and your group rank is updated, you’ll be put on a new team based on that role/rank in the group :slightly_smiling_face:

:light_bulb: Notes:

  • This system runs in Roblox and integrates Discord notifications for moderators.
  • The board display provides real-time visual guidance for users during their appeal session.
  • Anti-spam and seat-spam checks protect the system from repeated abuse while allowing normal usage.
  • Members in our development servers were genuinely impressed with the 4.0 overhaul!
