Ban reason: "Appeal banned; Self-Antag, inappropriate chat conduct across several rounds"
Date of ban: 1/12/23
Length of ban: Forever
Events leading to the ban: I immediately jumped into the game thinking this was some roleplay spaceship game and got attacked randomly by several people. I killed a dude who attacked me with a mop because I accidentally turned off stun on the baton. I shot a prisoner as he was trying to escape (he had a knife on his body) and also beat a chemist who had gunfruit or whatever it's called. I wasn't just attacking people randomly but several people were assaulting me and claimed I started it when I did not. I accidentally hit a chef because I didn't realize I hit 1 on my keyboard. A guy threw a pie in my face and I punched him once. I accidentally set off a flash grenade and blinded myself only. I was trying to play the game before I learned the controls so that's my bad and I have since watched a full video explaining everything to me. There was no malicious reason for me attacking people as most of the events were in self defense or role-play reasons. I apologize to whoever I offended and wish for this ban to be rescinded from indefinite as I made a mistake due to me playing this game for the first time.
Reason the ban should be removed: I was trying to roleplay and people kept attacking me. Only when I fought back was it an issue. I was confused about what to do but the more I played the more I figured it out. I should've learned more about the controls or read a manual or something but I did read the rules extensively before playing and I don't believe I broke any of them intentionally. Accidentally hitting a chef because I'm new and didn't realize I was on combat mode? That's excusable. Killing someone who was attacking me because I didn't realize my baton wasn't on stun? That's excusable. Killing someone who was shooting me first? That's excusable. A prisoner forcing me at gunpoint to commit malicious acts? Roleplay. I understand why I was banned and I can promise it won't happen again, but the maliciousness behind it wasn't there. That's why I'm on the forums trying to explain that I shouldn't just be banned forever. I liked the game and had a lot of fun playing it. It was nice to try to learn and figure stuff out but it sucks I was banned because a couple of people are crying wolf. If I had a recording of me playing the entire game you would understand the circumstances I was put under and I'm not trying to say this community is filled with assholes or anything but I certainly was fucked with and whenever I retaliated they'd pitch a fit. I got randomly shot several times, I got punched randomly several times, so on. I apologize but any mistakes I made were out of not knowing the controls mainly and secondly being confused about the combat system. I would try to stun people and accidentally beat them to death. I was just messing around on my first game and I was beat to death in the first minute. Second game was where I again was attacked and fought back. Third round was where I accidentally killed like 2 people for again, not being aware of the unconscious/stun system in the game. I figured a majority of this stuff out now and realize I was inadvertently killing people so again I apologize. I'd prefer if I was banned for a shorter time than forever because I was simply new and made mistakes while trying to figure out the game. I wasn't trying to troll or break rules, I was just confused how stuff worked. I had a couple people explain stuff to me so that was helpful but I don't understand what the "inappropriate chat conduct" was. I didn't really harass anyone and I can only think of the first things I said when trying to figure out how the /looc/ooc stuff worked. Again, I'm sorry. I can't remember everything I said but I know I wasn't saying rude stuff to anyone or anything malicious. I also saw like two people fighting and accidentally broke a thing of glass trying to get to them. I did a lot of stupid stuff because I hadn't realized how stuff worked. I know better now. Sorry.
