But since I use EST and not PST, instead of waiting until 11pm, I have to wait until 2am. Yet people still say that timezone differences don't effect anything. They do.. :/

ROBLOX HQ is located in California, they use Pacific Standard Time

I live in Pennsylvania, I use Eastern Standard Time

If there IS no timezone difference when it comes to the time for accounts to be unbanned, then how come I am affected?

I thought it was x hours after the ban was put in place, being 24, 72, 168, and 336 hours each.

the bans expire after 1, 3, 7 or 14 days. or never
it states that.
oddly enough this site doesn't use unique timezones for each person yet so it doesnt work at all tho

Bans go by CST

And why can't you just remember when you were banned? Why is that so difficult?
Timezones do not affect it. Whenever you were banned, that's when you're unbanned. It's exactly 24 hours, seconds included.

@Saus

You're right, but let me elaborate..

Let say your ban note said that your account will be able to reactivate after 3:00pm. So that would be 3:00pm Pacific.

Lets also say that where you live, you don't use Pacific Standard Time, instead lets say you use Eastern Standard Time.

3:00pm PST is 6:00pm EST. So you'd have to wait 3 extra hours after the time given on the moderator note. This is what happens to me.

op that's not how it works at all
when you are banned it has a time until expiration
it begins at the time you are banned
and ends when the time is over
all times on roblox are in some other timezone that i have no idea about
stop making issues over stuff that dosent exist

^ No, my logic is that there is timezone difference. I never said anything about bans being 24 hours. People don't believe me when I say that timezones come into play with ban expirations.

1 day ban is our example
you are banned
at the time you are banned a 24 hour countdown begins
when it is over you are given back access
simple
timezones have no part of it, except for the times shown on the ban page

You dont wait 3 hours... If you got banned at 6 PM EST it would say you got banned at 3PM which is in PST. Then you get unbanned again at 6 PM est or 3 pm PST...

Bans are NOT PST.

"Let say your ban note said that your account will be able to reactivate after 3:00pm. So that would be 3:00pm Pacific.

Okay, no. Here's how it goes:

You are banned at 4 PM EST. So your ban says 3 PM, meaning 3 PM CST. That's one hour behind you. It is still 24 hours. When it is 4 PM EST the next day, you are unbanned. It is 3 PM CST.
