Hi @Former-Member,
I can hear that you are wanting to get back onto RO and chat with people there. I am not sure why a ban was put in place and I hear that you are feeling that this is unjust.
I just want to drop by to say that it is not up to any other members to speak to RO on your behalf and try to rectify this for you. I understand that waiting a week to get back on feels like something that you cannot do right now but perhaps you can chat here about what is going on for you rather than trying to get back onto RO right now

Tell me about your weekend @Former-Member I haven't caught up with you since your 'adventure'. How did it go?

Think about it like a landscaping job @Former-Member - sometimes products aren't available and you have to wait for them to arrive to complete a job. As frustrating as it is - when they finally arrive and you can complete the job - how much satisfaction is there at what you have achieved. You have already gotten through 2 weeks - one more week and it is over!
Oh @Former-Member you did really well on your adventure. I am scared of heights so I would have probably had a little accident (lol) if I had done it. Well done you

After you write the complaint just hold off until tomorrow until you do anything with it @Former-Member - these things are much better done with a little distance. Can you do that tonight buddy? When you are a little less emotional about it is the best time to actually act (or not if that is what you decide).
I am really proud of you that you did it too @Former-Member But did I see somewhere that you didn't go surfing?
btw how did the wax in the fridge turn out - did they think it was chicken?

If no one speaks on your behalf it doesnt mean that they arent on your side. I can see that @outlander, @Zoe7 and @Faith-and-Hope have been here talking to you and supporting you, which suggests to me that they are on your side and willing to support you. It is not up to anyone else to contact RO on your behalf and talk about a ban put in place and requests from you for others to do this are not appropriate.
I would suggest that your conversations here focus on what you need for tonight rather than your ban from RO, as continuing to ask for others to act on your behalf will continue to cause distress for you tonight.
