  1. Ban reason: Participated in a server-wide coup. Length of ban: Indefinite Events leading to the ban: It was a quiet round, and stuff happened unbeknownst to me and suddenly all the heads declared a coup against HOS and security. I did not orginally join as I was the paramedic, so I focused on rescuing and healing. It was first in security when I noticed a lot of guys getting murdered by warden I joined in and hit him a few times with a crowbar. I did not kill him. Then there was the QM in medbay, he was being attacked and cuffed by a security cadet a dozen minutes later, and since CMO was on the same team as QM, I had to step in. I shot the cadet, but accidentally killed him. No worries, I healed him immediately, after cuffing him, but he had already SSD'd. Later, I was in medbay healing, when I noticed my chemist being attacked by a guy in HoS clothing. When he tried to cuff the chemist, I shot him uncoscious, cuffed him, and patched him up. He was angry and complained it was self-defence because the chemist had injected him with.... medicine, thinking it was toxins, and assaulted my fellow chemist... in a coup. That's when he ragequit and I got banned out of nowhere. Reason the ban should be removed: The admin, mushroom something, did not even bother hearing me out. He said, "did you participate" "yes" *banned*. If the captain, HOP, QM, and RD, all initiated a coup, why am I to be blamed? Is it not the admins responsibility to inform the players that this is not Admin approved? They literally said kill security, and I only killed 1 secoff on accident but patched them up immediately (in cuffs), and I get punished for the actions of others. If the admin actually took time to listen, I would tell him what I did, but he stigmatised me and banned me indefinitely in seconds. I did not leave them dead, I literally healed them, as is in accordance with my IC character. I think it was poor judgement and unfair to ban me for this.
  2. That is all well reasoned, I fail to understand why the admins could not communicate this with me instead of immediately swinging the ban hammer indefinitely, no discussion at all. I can only presume they assumed their common sense is everyone's common sense, which is a fallacy. Experienced people often fail to appreciate what is normal to them is not always normal to those less experienced. I know that as a nukie, if that happened to me, I would be guffawing and singing praises to the brilliant madman who pulled it off, whereas someone with loads of hours into the game would likely be grumpy about that. At least that's what I understand now based on your feedback.
  3. I did not know that. I always thought nukies' goal was just to kill the crew, which the nuke did. Not destroy the station specifically. This is what I mean by some stuff that's obvious to long-term players is not so obvious to relatively new players.
  4. SS14 account username: BetterForget Role(s): Engineering Date of ban: 26/01/2023 Length of ban: Indefinite Events leading to the ban: I was playing as chef until I heard on the announcement that there were no atmos, and I noticed that the heating was bad. As I got plenty of hours into engineering, as both Atation Engineer, Atmospheric Technician, and Chief Officer, I thought I could help cool down the station. As I arrived to the locker room and just got changed, there was suddenly nukies in atmos who murdered the CE and a couple other blokes. I ran out as the sole survivor, and noticed the singulo was on. I got this idea to try what a few other lads had done in the past and kill the nukies with singuloose, and let it free. It didn't work, as the singuloose went away from the station. No damage to the station was done, and the nukies survived. Reason the ban should be removed: Did the plan fail? Yes. Was it risky? Yes. But I've seen others do it before, so I am a little baffled why I am punished. If it had succeeded, I am fairly sure I would not be writing this appeal. It was not released for no reason, I might add, as that would be self-antagging. I am much aware. However, if making a singuloose is a guaranteed offense, no matter the reason, it would help future players to actually make this clear in the rules. I am a reasonable player, I do not grief, and if I do, those cases are mistakes at most. Like the time I released frezon in a shuttle. I did not know frezon was that harmful in small doses. I am still relatively new to the space station genre, and finding things out and trying new things is part of the fun. If it's taboo, I will avoid it. The issue is that I need to be aware of the taboo in the first place, which is a learning process. I am sorry for the singuloose, but I think an indefinite ban from the engineering role, which is arguably the most fun role, is a little extreme when a verbal warning would suffice. Not everyone is a hardcore griefer trying to ruin others' fun. I will not do it again.
