What is a Ban ID?

A Ban ID is a unique identifier linked to your ban. It usually consists of two words followed by a few numbers (for example: HonorableBee123).

If you would like to appeal an in-game ban, you will need to include the Ban ID associated with your punishment.

⚠️
Your Ban ID is unique to you and your account. If someone else gains access to it, they could submit an appeal on your behalf. This may delay or even prevent your own appeal from being accepted.

How to Find Your Ban ID

  1. Open Minecraft and try to join The Hive on the account that has been banned.
  2. You’ll see a message explaining why you were banned and how long the ban will last.
  3. Your Ban ID will appear on this screen, as shown in the image below.

ℹ️
If you were online when you were banned, you will need to try to rejoin the server to view your Ban ID, as it doesn't appear when you are first kicked.

Once you have your Ban ID, you can submit your appeal. For more information about how to submit an appeal, please click here.
