title: About losing access to a community
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
You can lose your Status Community membership for different reasons. For example, a [token-gated community](./about-status-communities.md) can change the token requirements to join, or your behaviour breaks the community rules.
|
|
|
|
The community owner can permanently ban your account if you break the community rules. Respect the community rules and members, and don't spam people or promote scams or deceptive practices.
|
|
|
|
## The basics
|
|
|
|
- If you lose access to a community, you must request to [join the community](./join-a-status-community.md) again.
|
|
- For token-gated communities, you should hold the token requirements at all times.
|
|
- When you lose access to a community, it does show up under the Joined tab on your [Communities page](./how-to-use-communities-your-quick-start-guide.md).
|
|
- In the [notifications centre](../your-profile-and-preferences/view-notifications-and-updates.md), your Membership notifications show when you have lost access to a community. You don't receive a notification when you're banned from a community.
|
|

Community owners control who has access to their communities. Status can't kick you out or ban you from a community. Likewise, Status can't grant you access to a community or override the community owner's actions.

## Reasons you can lose access to a community
|
|
|
|
There are four reasons:
|
|
|
|
| Reason | Description | Scope |
|
|
| :------------------------ | :---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | :------------------------------- |
|
|
| Kick | The community owner has kicked you out of the community. | Open and token-gated communities |
|
|
| Ban | The community owner has permanently banned you from the community. You can't request to join the community again. | Open and token-gated communities |
|
|
| Token requirements change | The token requirements to access the community have changed and your tokens do not longer satisfy these requirements. Open the community page to review the new token requirements. | Token-gated communities |
|
|
| Your tokens change | Your tokens or token amounts have changed and you don't longer satisfy the community requirements. Open the community page to verify your eligibility. | Token-gated communities |
|

Community owners can lose access to their community if they have to restore the profile on a different device and don't [back up the community key](../backup-your-community-key.md).
