'''Lemuria v. Concerned Parties''', or '''d9 v. lemuria''', the name of the private thread, was an ''ad hoc'' arbitration case between [[Lemuria]] and multiple parties opposed to him, represented by [[d9eoead]]. [[Fern]] began the arbitration at 01:43 AM UTC, on July 10, 2025, giving both parties 24 hours to write a document explaining their case. On July 17, 2025, the case ended, with Fern choosing to ban Lemuria for 75 days with a 30-day reconsideration period.

This was the first arbitration case of its kind on the site, due to the complexity of the Lemuria-OWOT conflict and the lack of clear formal administrative rulings from earlier points in the conflict.

In the evening of July 17, 2025, Fern made her final ruling on the case; Lemuria was to be banned for 75 days.

Because Lemuria is in over 150+ Discord servers, Lemuria requested that this be implemented by assigning him the "verify-yourself" role. Lemuria justified this method of the ban by arguing that since he would have to leave over 50 servers to rejoin the server after the end of his ban, the ban would effectively cascade to fifty other servers, far beyond its intended scope.
