Banning admin: NecromancerAnne
Ban type (What are you banned from?): All antagonist roles.
Ban reason and length: Banned from Roles: Abductor, Xenomorph, Blob, Blood Brother, Changeling, Cultist, Devil, Internal Affairs Agent, Malf AI, Monkey, Space Ninja, Operative, Syndicate Mutineer, Revolutionary, Revenant, Head Revolutionary, Servant of Ratvar, Syndicate, Traitor, Wizard, Hivemind Host permanently - This ban is a temporary measure. Killed a freshly spawned player as a changeling and then DC'd. Also worth discussing is going absolutely loud as hell as a team antag (changelings with a team objective are a team) without much consideration for your team or contacting them until rather late into the round already, which is also worth addressing here. Please come to the forums to discuss the matter further. This is your first noted offense for this, but we do need to discuss this over a medium with some level of transparency and not over discord, which is how you contacted me about this matter.
Time ban was placed (including time zone): 2019-08-26 05:55:18 , PST
Server you were playing when banned (Sybil or Bagil): Sybil
Your side of the story: At the beggining of the round I rolled mime, and then found out I was a changeling, and quickly looked at my objectives. After finding, at the time, that I had a team antag objective, which was to impersonate and kill the engineering department, I decided to talk over the changeling hivemind in order to see who everyone was, and affirm if we had the same objectives - but I got no response. I waited a bit, and still, found that I wasnt getting any response from the other changelings, so I believed they must have been new / AFK at the time. I began killing members of engineering, and security as well to make my job easier, and take their DNA. This led to me killing more people, all the while I was attempting to contact the others on the changeling hivemind. After killing another member of the engineering department in the maintenance rage cage on pubby, I finally got a response. I found out who they were, but was very quick as security was nearby. I couldnt fully explain the situation. Also, now would be a good time to mention that at the end of the round, the other changelings did not have the same team antag objective that I had, which was to impersonate the engineering team. As I continued killing people, I didn't use any of my changeling abilities often either, save for once in central hallway with adrenals, and once in maint with fleshmend, which didn't compromise my status as a changeling. After running out of maintenance, I saw the chaplain entering the tube to the chapel on pubby, and promptly killed him, knowing that the person with access to a cremator would be a good target to take out. This is where I failed to recognize he had just spawned, and I understand this is the part I fucked up on for not being observant of my surroundings and the round. Afterwards, I ran down central hallway, and got the message from NecromancerAnne that he had just joined, and as I sent a reply stating something along the lines of "Shit, fuck, sorry, I'm going to get to a more secure place and talk" my internet abruptly died for the next two hours. As I couldn't contact NecromancerAnne any other way, I opened the discord app on my phone to simply state that my internet was dead, and asked if this would require me to post on the forums.
Why you think you should be unbanned: I am not saying that me killing the chaplain who was a late join should be appealed or anything, that was entirely my fault. I failed to recognize he was a late join, and am willing to accept punishment for that action. What I however believe, is that I should not be punished for the uncontrollable event that was my internet cutting out directly after getting an admin message. I had no control over this, and I merely asked over discord what the next actions to occur should be, and inform them that my internet, at the time, was dead. Also, the other changelings who spawned during the shift with me did not have the same team antag objective that I had, and failed to communicate with me very well either, and the killings I was performing were done to ensure a victory for my team.
