Posted: Mon Jan 11, 2021 9:51 am
BYOND account: YuiY1997
Character name:Weiss Iams
Ban type: Server
Ban length: Permanent
Ban reason: "Metacomms. Also some Ick Ock on a community discord. Was Forthcoming and honest when asked about it."
Time ban was placed: 2020-07-06 01:27:43
Server you were playing on when banned: Manuel
Round ID in which ban was placed: #141246
Your side of the story: The ban was not for the round I was banned on, but after a round where I had attempted to contact a player (Kether Mavet) to break me out of a bluespace bodybag when I was suffocating. I had also been ICK OCKing most of the round when I was salting over a Captain. I knew at the time the behavior was unacceptable but did it anyways.
Why you think you should be unbanned: To start out with I'd like to apologize to the community of Manuel, who I wronged despite them always being supportive. Metacomming is arguably the worst offense you can commit solely because it damages the integrity of the game for everyone on a fundamental level. I regret having damaged the community in the way I have. Not just through this one act, but with the sizable pile of notes I had amassed over the months. The truth is, I saw ss13 as a game about winning, I bent the rules to make things go my way all the time and at the end of the day, that isn't fair. Continually I would get notes and blame the admin giving them without taking a moment of self reflection. After being banned, I realized how much the Manuel community came to resent me for my behavior, and then I realized it was me that was the problem. I mostly went to HRP servers after, I learned to contribute to a community through roleplaying, actually do something constructive, I started seeing ss13 as more collaborative theater than I did a game to win or lose. I've really been trying to work on myself before I made the appeal. I originally didn't intend to appeal until a year after the ban was placed, but after a good friend of mine (Rhials Duffy) said I should now I thought it would be best. I know my behavior at the time was inexcusable, which is why I'm not trying to make excuses, but instead I want to make a promise that if I am unbanned I'll do something for the community that I miss desperately, because they always cared for me when I was too much of a jerk to appreciate it or give anything back to the community. I understand the nature of the offense I committed makes it difficult to believe I'm going to be honest, but I really hope that I'm able to show that I'm able to add to the community with what I've been doing in the 6 months since I've been banned.
References of good conduct: I have a reference from Vesta of Orion (Hestia Reboot), a Senior Admin there Avignis ♡#9999 on discord said they would vouch for me, the quality of my roleplaying, and my growth as a player the past few months. Sojourn’s Headmin, Kaz said he would vouch for me as well.
