Sanction Issue

Summary

I have a sanction applied on my account due to a bug (linked below), but the portal will not let me submit an appeal since I already had a request, since the ruling was wrong as this is a bug and is not my fault. I need a way to reach out to the sanction team to have the review that is is not my fault and lift the sanction.

There is a background bug that adds a Fortnite background with text to be applied to your map. It is not my background and I did not add it, but I got a sanction saying I broke the rules. I know multiple other rocket racing creators who had theirs lifted. My first one was lifted but the second one was not and the option to reach out is grey. So I need help reaching the sanction team since this is happening to all rocket maps updated in the last week and should be able to be verified that it is a bug and not me breaking rules. Thank you!

So I did start there and they send me to the help forum and that moderator sent me to this bug request forum so If i were to go back to there I think I would just repeat the loop again.

@Jimbohalo10 is actually correct. So sorry for the misdirection @JohnnyBluePrint!
