Ban Appeals / Re: free me
« on: Monday, September 30, 2024, 23:10:20 PM »You seem to only be referencing your initial 1 week ban for using a racial slur. Your permanent ban was for doxxing another player by using their real name as your in-game name. You also did this while circumventing your 1 week ban.
That's a pretty big series of dumb mistakes.
We can only punish for offense we're aware of. You claim to have reported these incidents, but to who? All I ever saw was a single screenshot and the player was warned.
You also told me you could just circumvent this ban, but I guess that hasn't really worked out.
I'm curious what others have to say about it.
Here is my response to you, to address some concerns regarding my recent ban and the perceived bias in your handling of the situation.
Perceived Bias: It appears that the player in question is considered a "valued member" of the community, which raises concerns about fairness in enforcement. My contributions over the last six months have significantly boosted player engagement, yet this seems to be overlooked in favor of someone who has not demonstrated the same level of commitment.
Questionable Claims: The assertion that the other player is an armed service member lacks substantiation, as there are numerous indications—both in-game and online—that contradict this claim. Misrepresentation of such credentials undermines the integrity of our community.
Public Information: As previously mentioned, the name I used is publicly available. Context matters, and using it in a game setting does not equate to doxing or harassment.
Desire for Fairness: I believe every member, regardless of their perceived status, should be held to the same standards. A fair review of my case would take into account my contributions and the inconsistencies in how rules are enforced.
I hope we can engage in a constructive dialogue about this matter and work toward a more equitable environment for all players; in an environment where supposedly an armed services member is being 'trolled' makes you wonder if they are truly a true representation of an armed service member or if they are a fraud.
Thank you for your attention.
