Banning admin: KangTut
Ban type (What are you banned from?): 1 Day Ban
Ban reason and length:
Time ban was placed (including time zone): Just nowYou have been banned by KangTut.
Reason: Overloaded an antimatter engine in the main hall during an extended round, and claimed he had no idea what it was. He appeared to be the only casualty. Don't play with things you don't know anything about.
This is a temporary ban, it will be removed in 1440 minutes. The round ID is 95322.
Server you were playing when banned (Sybil or Bagil): Bagil
Your side of the story: Well I spawned in to the round and was informed that we were on code green so I couldn't have weapons displayed. I changed into a casual security uniform and went on patrol. I was walking around the halls when I found some kind of poorly drawn, giant machine sitting in the middle of the hallway. I had never seen this before and thought it might be some kind of unique event, or cool toy that has been provided for the crew to play with. I examine it and see this:
I clicked on it to see what I could do with it, and saw a few options which I don't remember, none of them very explanatory. There was an option to increase or decrease the amount of something (I do not remember exactly what it was as I have never used this machine ever and had no idea what it was), so I started pressing the plus button to see if anything would happen. Suddenly an explosion slowly radiated out, killing me and making a hole in the floor.That's an antimatter reactor section
This device was built using a plasma life-form that seems to increase plasma's natural ability to react with neutrinos while reducing the combustibility.
Why you think you should be unbanned: It was genuinely an accident, and according to the ban reason I was the only one who died. I had no idea what this thing was, and I figured that if it is sitting in the main hall for any crew to touch it must not be very dangerous. I have literally never seen someone build a singularity or supermatter in the middle of a busy hallway, I had no idea this thing was an engine. The panel was open to the public so I figured I'd experiment with it, as I would with any new machine I find in game.
After clicking a couple of buttons I exploded and had no chance to fix things as my body no longer existed. I immediately ahelped to apologize and explain what was going on. I understand why KangTut banned me, but I do not think that someone accidentally blowing themselves up is a valid ban reason. This is like a scientist blowing a hole in toxins while experimenting with bombs, except even more benign as I had literally 0 idea what I was touching and just wanted to participate in whatever was going on that led to people constructing this giant machine in the middle of a busy hallway.
Even people in deadchat were saying "why would you build this in the middle of the halls if you don't want people who don't know what they're doing to come see what it is". I had no way of knowing it would cause an explosion, and if I did I would not have done it. This game is full of ways you can accidentally kill yourself if you don't know what you're doing, I have not seen a lot of other people getting banned for killing themselves through honest mistakes.
