Hi @zinc sequoia. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

Hello! If you received a warning or were muted by a moderator on OpenAI’s services, it’s typically because your activity was flagged as potentially violating OpenAI’s Usage Policies or Terms of Service. Warnings are issued to help users understand and correct behavior before more serious actions, like suspension, are taken. Common reasons include generating harmful content, attempting to bypass safety systems, or misuse of the platform. A warning is not an immediate suspension, but continued violations may lead to further restrictions or permanent account deactivation.

If you believe the warning or moderation action was a mistake, you can appeal. Usually, you should reply to the original notification email or contact OpenAI Support via the Help Center. Include your user or organization ID and any relevant context to help the team review your case. OpenAI will review your appeal and respond as soon as possible. For more details, see the guidance on why you might receive a warning and how to appeal.

If your issue is related to a GPT you created being restricted, you can use the in-product “Appeal” button, provide your reasoning, and await a review. You’ll be notified by email of the outcome, and if denied, you can edit your GPT and try again or submit another appeal How to appeal a GPT restricted from sharing.

If you need further clarification or support, reaching out through the official channels is the best way to resolve your concern.

Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon:
