# Server Removal

If your server is caught violating [Discord’s](https://discord.com/terms) & arklynn’s [Terms of Service](https://arklynn.xyz/terms), it will be blacklisted, resulting in arklynn leaving your server. Make sure to review the rules and guidelines to ensure compliance.

A **global blacklist** targets a **single user**, not the whole server.

**If you are globally blacklisted:**

* Arklynn **ignores all your commands** – everywhere, on every server.
* You receive **no responses, no embeds, no feedback**. The bot acts as if you don't exist.
* You **cannot invite Arklynn** to any server – any attempt fails.
* You are **automatically banned** from every server that already has Arklynn (the bot kicks/removes you as a safety measure).
* This is **permanent** unless successfully appealed.

**How does a user get globally blacklisted?**

* **Only the Arklynn development team** can do this – it is **never automatic**.
* The devs manually blacklist a user **only after confirming serious, intentional violations** like:
  * Harassment or abuse via bot commands
  * Exploiting bugs or attempting to crash the bot
  * Spamming commands to disrupt service
  * Impersonating Arklynn staff or the bot itself
  * Violating Discord’s ToS in a way that involves the bot

> **Important:** A simple ban from a Discord server does **not** trigger a global blacklist. The devs investigate first.

### **Can I appeal?**

Yes. Contact support with your Discord User ID and a clear explanation. Appeals are reviewed within 7 business days. If accepted, the global blacklist is removed.
