Dear Codeforces Team,
I’m writing with deep respect and a sincere request. I will be graduating in six months, and I hope you can consider my appeal.
Two years ago, my Codeforces account was permanently disabled after I participated in 2–3 contests where I, admittedly, took help from a Telegram channel that shared hints, pseudocode, and algorithmic ideas. I now fully understand that this violated the platform’s rules, and I take full responsibility for that mistake. I want to sincerely apologize for my actions.
Before that incident, I had solved over 250 problems and participated in many contests honestly. After the ban, I reached out multiple times to the admin team but didn’t receive a response. I understand the platform must uphold fairness and integrity, and I respect that.
However, I kindly request a reconsideration—not to restore my ratings or contest history—but just to unban the account so it can remain visible. Having that account, even with a zero rating, would mean a lot to me as I compile my resume. It represents the genuine effort I put into learning and practicing problem-solving over the years.
Thank you for your time and understanding. I truly regret my past actions, and I assure you that I have learned from them.
