What does rule lawyering mean?

[Coldstrike34]

Ok so i made a discord ban appeal some weeks back which was denied and the mod reviewing it said something about “rule-lawyering”, yeah what is that? that’s my first time hearing it.

And also does the 6 month rule still apply for discord bans if you were denied and think the mod you and the reviewer may not have understood each other?

rule lawyering is arguing with mods about what is or is not against the rules.

depends on the context of why you were banned and why you were denied

Yes, the rule is pretty much for this exactly. You can try again in 6 months.
