Gluttony Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 SS14 account: Gluttony Character name: Sir Israel Thurton the 7th When was the ban: 3/12/2022 8-9pm(ish) by Moony Wizard's Den Lizard (USWEST) Your side of the story: As HoP, I said the phrase, "Fucking women" in response to killing an intruder in my office. The character killed was a female bartender. I spoke to Moony through in-game chat, and was then killed and banned. I was informed I broke Rule 7, listed below; Hate speech, slurs and bigotry are not allowed. Intentionally seeking to demean others due to their actual or perceived race, sex, gender, orientation or the like is not tolerated. Words that are closely tied to real life slurs are not allowed. Why you think you should be unbanned: I believe I should be unbanned due to this being my first offense in 67+ hours. I have never received a previous temp/perm ban in my time, as well as engage in pretty good roleplay (IMO) in my positions, excluding the reason I was banned above, which was not acceptable for me to do. It was wrong for me to make the above comment, and I shall strive to ensure it does not happen, or any other rule-breaking in the future. I do not claim that the ban was unjust, or unreasonable, and I do not condone my past behavior. Honestly, I did something wrong that broke the listed rules, as well as the rules followed in society, by exclaiming the above phrase. Anything else we should know: I understand the reasoning behind the ban, and do not contest it. I would understand if my ban would stand for a few days to ensure a point is made regarding my behavior. Of course, I enjoy playing SS14 and would love to be unbanned as soon as possible. I can state that the phrase was a reflection of my beliefs, but I can understand why this would not be believed at this time. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Project Manager moony Posted March 13, 2022 Project Manager Share Posted March 13, 2022 So something important to understand is that rule 7 applies always, even to your character, and even in made up scenarios (i.e. speciesism is not permitted under any circumstances) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have apologized and not tried to justify my behavior. I don't know what else you can see, but I have not committed/been banned for any other discriminatory acts/language or rule-breaking. I understand that this was a a severe warning, and I strongly believe that I will have no other issues if unbanned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
