Topic: How to appeal a deleted post?

Posted under General

My recent post was banned for reason "Irrelevant to site (Screencap)" featuring G-Man holding Neco-Arc on his hands, it was made in GMod, and reposted from steam artworks.
At first: it is not directly screencap, because I used a little bit different method, which is rendering pictures in PNG. And if even this is creenshot, then how do I suppose to port something from GMod?
Second: I also did some tweaking to the poster in Photoshop. Not too much, but noticeable, So technically this is an art from PSh.

I completely disagree with the ban on my post and would like to have it back. I think it has a right to be on this site.

Refer to the pinned topic #23578. You would have to contact the janitor who deleted it, @Rainbow_Shoebill, and ask them politely to reverse the deletion if it was done in error.

According to our Uploading Guidelines, the "screen captures" clause prohibit uploading anything taken straight from games, especially from sandboxes.
Garry's Mod is literally advertised as 'a physics based sandbox game'.

You don't. It doesn't matter how you exported it or cleaned it up.
You are not allowed to post content that was taken from a game.

The only exception is Source Filmmaker which is technically not a game, but it is already pushing the boundaries of what is accepted.

You don't have the right to upload whatever you want like it is your own personal art gallery.

Uploading is a privilege given to you with the expectation that you post things in adherence with the rules.
Failure to adhere to the rules or the Uploading Guidelines would result in your upload limit being negatively impacted, and in severe cases, being completely blocked from uploading.

To answer the post's question: you appeal by DMing the janitor/admin that deleted your post.
