You may suggest recusal. It is up to the arbitrator to recuse themselves. We have never forced an arbitrator to recuse, even when there was reasonable grounds.

Can I insist that certain Arbitrator recuse themselves on the grounds of conflict of interest?
You can see that I might not feel fairly treated by an Arbitrator who has already condoned the use of incivility with Ad hominems against me.

Ah. It appears quite a lot of it is explained here:

Probation, repeated violations, apparent inability to work with others. Appeal to the arbitration committee is the way back.
Yes, that's where I was found guilty of having an "orientation", and an Arbitrator condoned the use of incivility with Ad hominems against me. Again, no examples of improper editing.
But if you have an indefinite ban, you are not allowed to appeal for a year. In other words, IF you are banned improperly, but indefinitely, there is no way back for at least a year.
