Please Please, I beg you. Stop writing fucking 6 paragraphs for your takes in FNR. No one cares past the first 2 lines.

But it's funny when someone writes a 5 page grimoire of why they get to be unbanned from a space man server 5 days early. The length of the document always brings me back to my uni days.

Idk the thread you’re talking about is pretty nuanced, I slowly worked my way up to long posting as I got a better feel on the different aspects. Most of the stuff isn’t word salad too so it could be worse.

Also we know you’re the headmin with the least to say lmao.

Taking pot shots is poor form, you're better than that. I haven't seen Lepi ever hesitate to say the writing on the wall and I have yet in my opinion to see a bad take from them. Honestly I spend possibly too much time trying to word out a "proper" response(this post took me about 15 minutes) and I look to them plenty to remind myself that less is more.

Edit: Whoops, thinking it was policy and not fnr my bad but anyways I do think peoples paragraphs could be summarized but you get the gist of their argument pretty quick anyways.

Yeah sorry I shouldn't have, but posting memes when the community tries to have a genuine discussion is too. It should be encouraged by headmins, not made fun of.

it isnt a dig at anyone in the thread. its just reading it feels like reading the same comments over and over because people are just re treading the same ground going in circles to write more. writing shorter better points is better than 4 paragraphs that could be condensed into 2 lines. Also in alot of ban appeals people do the exact same thing.

Anyone can write paragraph after paragraph, but it takes a good writer to communicate succinctly.

Unfortunately, most people are not good writers.

Ban Appeal from John John the Marxist Circus Performer

CKey: Plebius
Character Name: Zack Mieth
Banning Admin: Something about lasagna or gay whales or something, I don't remember
Ban Date and Round ID: About ten minutes ago last sunday, cunt
Ban Reason: Let's be real here, I got banned for playing security in the most efficient manner. There's a really fucking obvious reason why no one plays security... Because when you play with an ounce of self-preservation and treat the crew as they should be treated, like the violent, dangerous criminals they are, you make some grey tiding little nigger wah-wah about how unfair it is that someone was guarding armory and was better armed than them, and how if only no one was in the armory, they could just walk in and grey tide to their heart's content. It's absolute fucking bullshit. I've seen antags kill entire stations before, yet I can't gun down a man who waltz'd into security with access he shouldn't have? What was he there for? Was he there for the donuts? Was he there to get some non-lethal means of detainment? Cuffs? No, he was there so he could get some fucking guns and have a means to kill someone. I just so happened to kill him first, is all. The server is the god damned wild west, you dumb shit fucking morons. You act like everyone isn't fucking devouring each other. You're acting like non-antags aren't kidnapping and ruining other non-antags rounds. You're acting like security isn't constantly dying because their guns are absolute shit and a man with a toolbox and a sprayer full of lube dooesn't regularly kill sec. Bullshit.

I used the shotgun. You know why? Cause the shot gun doesn't miss, and unlike the shitty hybrid taser it stops a criminal in their tracks in two hits. Bang, bang, and they're fucking done. I use four shots just to make damn sure. Because, once again, I'm not there to coddle a buncha criminal scum sucking faggots, I'm there to 1) Survive the fucking round. 2) Guard the armory. So you can absolutely get fucked. If I get unbanned, which I won't, you can guarantee I will continue to use the shotgun to apprehend criminals. Because it's quick, clean and effective as fuck. Why in the seven hells would I fuck around with the disabler shots, which take half a clip just to bring someone down, or with the tazer bolts which are slow as balls, impossible to aim and do about next to jack shit, fuck all. The shotgun is the superior law enforcement weapon. Because it stops crime. And it stops crime by reducing the number of criminals roaming the fucking halls.

As it stands now, antags are allowed to prance around doing whatever the fuck demented, sick shit they feel like, yet security has to toe the line and be the 'good guy' while getting fucking murdered in the process. Fuck that. Fuck that right in the god damned eyes and squish 'em into a paste, that's garbage. That's a sack of shit.

LOOK AT THE SOCIAL CLIMATE OF YOUR SHITTY FUCKING SERVER. LOOK AT THE DERANGEMENT, THE FUCKING SICKENING DISREGARD FOR OTHER PEOPLE'S WELLBEINGS. THE ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING TACTICS EMPLOYED BY ANTAGS AND GREYTIDERS. Look at all that shit and you tell me that excessive force is crossing the line. Taking one grey tiding scum sucker out of the genepool just makes the station a little bit more safe for people who actually want to work in their departments and do their jobs... Which is almost no one.
Ban Type: Gayness personified in the form of a hairdresser/interior designer from LA.
Ban Length: Blah blah blah Jews did 9/11.
Why should I be unbanned: Ah, fuck off. You think I honestly give a fuck? The only reason I'm taking this even semi-seriously, and believe me this is me appealing a ban in a semi-serious manner, is because I literally have no other SS13 servers to play on. I can play on CM... which is... absolutely fucking horrifyingly dull. I can play on, like, a Spanish speaking server... or two Russian servers... and then nothing. I mean, wowee, I guess I could go play on a server with fucking 4 people on it. Wow that sounds fun.

The problem is that the autistic fucking admins on these SS13 servers, so drunk with power, so intoxicated on the scent of their sweaty ballsacks as they drown in 'decision making' and 'responsibility', things they've never had before, hand out permabans for next to nothing. Why not a 3 month ban? Why not a 6 month ban? No. A fucking perma ban. Nevermind that people change, nevermind that people have shitty days or good days, nevermind that FOREVER IS A FUCKING LONG TIME, no... Permabans. And then they expect you to appeal on the forums so they can have MORE POWER, MORE DECISION MAKING. "HOO HOO, LOOKIT ME MOMMY, I GET TO DECIDE THE FATE OF THIS MAN HOOOO HOOOOOO WOWEEE SO EXCITE, MY LITTLE WINKY WILLY IS GETTING CHUB-CHUB, MOMMY." And let's be fucking absolutely real here, the only reason admins want people to sign up for the fucking forums to fucking ban appeal is so they can sell the members e-mails to, like, Chinese realtors or some shit.

I mean, obviously that's what's happening. What else could it be?

In conclusion, let it be known that I am the biggest man with the largest cock.

Spoiler:
The views expressed in this ban appeal are not my own. In conclusion, let it be known, sometimes you just can't write enough.

I mean, the shotgun is objectively the most effective law enforcement weapons for exactly that reason.

THE SHOTGUN
DON'T
MISS

except when we all miss the shotgun cuz we're removing it lol

Ideally I'd like to keep the shotgun because it's a unique weapon and rather remove slugs as they remove the interesting part of it

If we remove shotgun we are going to remove Mosin next because it is the most powerful weapon. Next choices after that in order:

Auto rifle
Egun
Lasergun
Disabler
Sec grenade launcher
Krav maga
Cqc
Fire axe
Spear
Toolbox damage
Extinguisher damage
All damage because we like hugbox

You'd have to be point blank. You know what else works at point blank? Stuns

Are you saying a Mosin is a better melee weapon than a stun baton
