Depending on the ban reason there are cases where members are not welcome back.

I will say staff has ignored my friends before. My friend went through steps and steps of verification and the staff that was helping her was acting very nice and understanding of her struggles with support beforehand and then out of nowhere they closed the ticket and left my friend with no help at all. They have more "important" requests to deal with like memberships. Simply a business thing as I assume the staff's priority is making the website money instead of letting members get unbanned.

exactly

believe it or not, ash never had a membership. if there's money they care, if there isnt its not their problem.

Are you sure about that??? From my observations it seems quite the opposite

If they weren't doing their jobs they would not have them long. Staff not doing what you think they should do is not the same thing as not doing their job.

I have no doubt most staff are doing their job, considering that they are paid. My question would be what their criteria is for banning accounts or not allowing them to return in this case. Also it would be good to know why support is so absurdly inconsistent. Seriously, there have been people who waited for OVER A MONTH for a support response. The argument of "tell them to contact support" is not valid when support doesn't respond half the time.

Chess support used to be better, since 2023 the site is going down

The support system does need some improvement, or maybe just more staff members in general. It is alarming how much support doesn’t respond, and just leave their members hanging without a solution, prompting them to keep trying. It wouldn’t be such a bad idea to add more staff members to the support section so that it’s more efficient and everyone gets a response back, no matter what the case may be. It’s not that the staff and support section is bad per sei, but it could be that the amount of people that can respond are limited, causing them to not respond to things they see as less important to the site, such as the banning and closing of accounts of members. These come second to problems with memberships and other purchases, which is understandable.

Money. They want to save money instead of helping their servers and community

Staffing is based on needs. During the holiday season, response times can be higher than normal but the site can't add more staff than it can support based on sustained workload and stay in business for long.
