    Congratulations--you are only the second person I know in Y!A to successfully appeal a violation accusation.

    I'm guessing the false complainant is not notified. However, the reporting site says that the false reporter loses credibility in the community, implying that person's future reports will not be taken seriously. It is the cyber version of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf."

    Cheers,

    Bruce

    Yep. If they do not be given your first attraction, preserve attractive. It relies on what your alleged violation honestly used to be. Explain to them why you replied such as you did (if it might had been interpreted as offensive). If you spoke back to an offensive query aggressively, or the questioner used to be trolling, factor out that the query used to be in violation and ask for his or her justification in issuing you with a VN however now not the asker. If the violation is for a query you requested, provide an explanation for to them precisely why it wasn't a contravention. Be well mannered, state your arguments naturally and as in short as feasible. Bullet elements can aid make your argument clearer.
