I did not "straight up lie" about what my ban was about - I genuinely thought that the detective thing was the reason. I'm certainly not denying anything from the past but I was unclear about why this permanent ban was put into effect. Now I understand after seeing the logs.

My apologies for assuming the worst of your character. But that still indicates at the least some negligence in writing your appeal, whether intended or not.
Frankly it sounds like you may want to leave the server but keep the door open for a return later. I can +1 an eventual reduction (months, not weeks) so that you can make a return someday. +0 a reduction that is any shorter than say 2 months.
