So I've been on a break from my ironman, tried to log in on it today after about 2 years, found out my password was not working, recovered it only to find out it was banned in November of last year for rwt.
Seeing as that is apparently a non appealable offense, is there anything I can do, or do I just have to start over?
I am very sorry to read your post.
Unfortunately your account is gone from the game for good as RWT bans cannot be appealed.
There is one point that really stands out here and that is:
your account was inactive for a long time yet someone discovered it and changed the password.
The hijacker must have got access to your email meaning your email is insecure.
Change its password right away and set up a 2-step verification on it to prevent any more unauthorised access.
