If you are banned from the server creating a punishment appeal is the only way to be unbanned. Here you will find a list of common issues that can occur when creating an appeal and how to resolve them.
To find out how to create an appeal, read How to Appeal a Hypixel Punishment.
Your Minecraft account is currently linked to a different forum account.
Receiving this error message when creating an appeal indicates that your Minecraft account was already linked to another forums account.
Reasons for this issue:
- You created a forums account in the past and linked your Minecraft account, but forgot about it.
- Your Minecraft account was hacked and someone else linked it.
- The Minecraft account does not, or didn't, belong to you.
All you have to do is link your account in-game to be able to fix this problem. It is possible to do this even if you are banned: Linking Your Minecraft Account to Hypixel.net
Ban not found
This error indicates that the ban id you entered does not find any ban for your account.
Reasons for this issue:
- The Ban ID you entered is incorrect.
- Your name is ambiguous. You entered a name that also belongs to another account on Hypixel.
Check if you have entered your ban id correctly. Make sure to not include the "#" and that all letters are right.
Enter your UUID instead of your name. You can find your UUID on sites like namemc.com (enter your current name and copy your UUID).

If you have already received a response, that decision is final and will not change. You can only appeal once.
