Can't believe I'm agreeing with Sad, but how bored were you to do an appeal for someone else.
If they cared enough, they'd do it themselves.

Yeah, I was waiting for a game to install/update.

Technically, appealing through gbans (Global bans) has always counted as a legitimate unban request. The issue is that there is no admin for PH to my knowledge so no one would have seen the appeal. The admin panel generally has been used to handout bans by the admins without requiring them to be on the server to administer the ban. If you go through Global bans you should be able to appeal the bans. The person probably found this by googling their steam ID or something similar. Unless there was a ban request, it would not have directed them to the forums but to ban on the gbans page. I figured this was the best course of action unless people want someone, after they resigned, approving or unapproving of ban appeals.
