BYOND account: Nibor62
Character name: N/A
Ban type: Banned by host
Ban length: Permanent
Ban reason: sticky ban
Time ban was placed: Dunno
Server you were playing on when banned: N/A
Round ID in which ban was placed: N/A
Your side of the story: Sorry for yet another unusual ban appeal. I am a linux user and after having desperately trying to find a decent non-lagging way to play the game, I finaly found that vmware workstation and its 3d acceleration is the holy grail. Sadly it seem that some other dude used this kind of VM for ban evasion and the sticky ban somehow also apply to my VM too (kinda weird since it is a fresh install)
Why you think you should be unbanned: Since I found a working setup I would love (and maybe other linux people) to see it work, but I do understand that with ban escapers it might not be that easy.
References of good conduct: A humble beginner that have not blown the station yet (kinda scared of the "how to start the reactor" wiki page though, will probably keep growing tomatoes for a while)
Anything else we should know: N/A

The admin handed this off to me as a subject expert on this kind of thing.

This is an odd one! Sticky bans are a BYOND thing, though we definitely have the power to remove this. I'm touching base with MSO as someone who I trust to be knowledgeable on how sticky bans work so we can confirm you're not an evader before lifting this. Will give you information as I receive it.
