[Dr. Aura] The unloved Rock - Possibly biased but Clearly malicious ban

Post by confused rock » #568219

When and where this incident occured (Game Server, forums, Discord): Manuel
Byond account and character name OR Discord name:The unloved rock, Is-A-Lizard
Admin: Dr. Aura
Round ID: 140134
Detailed Summary:
Complaint has been written after the appeal, which can far more likely give more context to the situation. https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=26942
Logs: https://tgstation13.org/parsed-logs/man ... /game.html & https://tgstation13.org/parsed-logs/man ... attack.txt

While I have reasons to believe Aura may be biased against me for them disliking me before they were an admin, there's no way to prove that, and it doesn't really matter if it was bias or just Aura deciding to be cruel one day. I don't understand why they would have any reason to be so harsh even disregarding that I was the only living member of security- they cite my note history but I'll get into that later. I believe Aura intended to ban me with the intent of making it as hard for me to deal with as possible, for almost everything about the ban as well as them dealing with the appeal.

First off, the reason is factually incorrect as far as I am concerned, and the most optimistic way I could describe it is grossly exaggerated and uninformed. However, As Dr. Aura had talked with both me and the chaplain, they had information that they went against entirely.
Ban reason being:
Banned from Roles: Head of Security, Warden, Security Officer permanently - Banned for murder - As a security officer, improperly escalated an event with three crusaders leading to all three of them being killed by him. Ignoring the fact that he precipitated the events by telling them he was going to do so, going to security to get armed and then using this escalation as justification to kill them, he ignored CentComm direction to not harm them and admitted to acting with incomplete information when dealing with them. Given lengthy note history pertaining to similar circumstances, I don't believe this player has any reason to play security for some time.


Most of this is false by some metric. The first being "Banned for murder". The tone of this absurd and describing any of what I did is murder for reasons listed in the appeal. You could call it excessive force, which would still be wrong, you could call it validhunting, which would still be wrong, but murder implies I ran up to some completely innocent person and killed them, and so the only reason to use such language is for the admin to express their distaste for my actions further. Except this is saying I murdered three people, not one, which is also wrong (I actually only killed one of the crusaders- and by killed, I mean me and the chaplain TOGETHER brought the crusader to around -40 health, at which point he succumbed. Thus I am one of the three people who together lead to the death of ONE crusader, not one person who killed three crusaders. They also say I "precipitated the events by telling them he was going to do so" which is to say, I told the crusaders that I would kill them if they did not leave the chapel, and then gave them several minutes to leave. When I got back, the chaplain was already fighting them. The "centcomm direction to not harm them" was a message so much early in the round, and so vague, that when I met the crusaders after so much other chaos had happened I wasn't even entirely sure this was related to that centcomm message, and because that centcomm message warned of possibly increased aggression ("wrath" the announcement says) if we fight the holy people, and that it had been so long and the crusaders were forcing the chaplain out of their chapel, I had reasonably assumed we had ALREADY incurred their wrath. And "admitted to acting with incomplete information" Is absurd. This is like writing a negative note saying that I wet the floors as a janitor. Acting on incomplete information is part of the game and it's impossible to avoid doing so. Acting with incomplete information is something to justify my actions. I was in a chaotic situation with the captain missing (dead) and me completely alone after recovering from severe injury and with a missing third pirate being a possible threat. Lastly, they bring up my note history. I do have many notes (which isn't reason to ban me when I did nothing wrong in the first place) but the vast majority are before 2016, when notes became public. Past that point, There are two security related bans in the past FOUR YEARS, and neither of those were on manuel or even added at a time when manuel existed. The first is in 2018, A temporary ban which I think is slightly strict, about me harming a prisoner too much and ultimately gibbing them after they attempted to murder me by using the AI. I don't think this qualifies as a lengthy note history, unless by lengthy you mean all my notes are very old. My second security note is from 2019, for when a hulk, a person who can only be stopped with lethal force, Started breaking things in brig, so I brought them to negative one HP, still conscious, and went to the brig medbay to heal them. When I got back, they had already succumbed (which is to say they succumbed in seconds) so I assumed they didn't want to play the round and I threw their body out of brig. This note is entirely absurd and especially goes against the idea that succumbing will result in stricter punishment for your attacker, so I don't think that this note is relevant in any way. If both notes were relevant to this situation, that's.. two notes. Unless the notes from 2016 are Damning?

Imagine if I had appealed this ban a long time from now. (which Aura seems to have wanted me to do in saying that I had no reason to play security "for some time" and that it was a permanent ban when month job bans happen as well) They would see it as me murdering 3 innocent people, ruining an event, while centcomm was actively making announcements not to hurt them, That "acting with incomplete information" is a negative in this instance so I must have done something heinous like played the game blindfolded, and that it tells admins that no, you don't need to check to see that he only has two negative sec notes in the past four years. I assure you, he's got a LENGTHY note history.

Another point of Aura acting maliciously is that they basically came into the situation thinking in advance that they were going to ban me, and they just wanted to see what evidence they could get to support this conclusion. This isn't a matter of Aura being completely confused and making stuff up for my ban, not that that'd be good, it's of them lying to make sure I was the one who suffered. I didn't realise this at first until I saw their logs with tanachi, the chaplain, however.
This is how they talked to me, basically just asking me if I had any last words before they banned me. I don't have too much to say about this, not that I think it was good admin conduct. I'll talk about how it contrasts with Tanachi though.
Spoiler:
[2020-06-22 03:12:07.805] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS)->The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard): You already know what it is so lets cut to the chance, why did you valid the crusaders
[2020-06-22 03:12:45.156] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard)->Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS): actually it was the chaplain. I did say I was going to kill them but I took a leisurely stroll to the brig to get actually equipped. when I Got back the chaplain was fighting them
[2020-06-22 03:13:13.350] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard)->Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS): I did help them finish them off. it didn't help that the crusaders were implying they just needed to maintain the chapel for five minutes though, made it sound like some cult ritual that had to be stopped.
[2020-06-22 03:14:28.822] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS)->The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard): Well, that is the nature of events, and you do see the jump between chaplin and crusaders calling one another heretics and then how telling them you're going to kill them and then walking off is escalating things a bit, right?
[2020-06-22 03:15:18.102] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard)->Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS): as far as I could tell they had already driven the chaplain out of the chapel. I didn't have a good grasp of what was going on as I was dealing with pirates at the same time and was the only member of security.
[2020-06-22 03:16:43.711] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS)->The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard): So you went off half cocked but somehow had enough information to formulate the plan to just kill them in spite of CentComm messages, leisurely stroll to gear up and take care of it, then do so all the while there was a present and pressing threat? Color me shocked.
[2020-06-22 03:17:28.541] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard)->Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS): what are you accusing me of now?
[2020-06-22 03:18:24.266] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS)->The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard): Accusation implies statement of wrongdoing by one party: I have evidence in furtherence of the wrongdoing as corroberated by multiple parties. I just want to know what you were thinking when you did it.
[2020-06-22 03:19:42.304] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard)->Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS): thinking when I said I was going to kill them was to get them to back down, thinking when they were fighting the chaplain was obviously to kill them. It sounded like hey were pulling off some cult ritual but that round was all over the place so I really just walked into the cult situation. I was just a regular officer so I had to slip into the bridge to see the command reports long after they were reported, I wasn't up to date on the actions.
[2020-06-22 03:21:00.903] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS)->The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard): So again, you operated on incomplete information, but still surmised you had enough to justify killing them all, even after CentComm said not to and you were the one to initiate the conflict by telling them you were going to kill them? Is there something here I'm misunderstanding, or is that an accurate summation?
[2020-06-22 03:22:10.493] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard)->Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS): What, are you saying I need to know exactly what's going on to come to the conclusion that I should defend the chaplain instead of letting them kill the chaplain? I had incomplete information because I Can't be fucking everywhere at once. Centcomms reports were at seemingly random times and the report "maybe don't mess with the angel guys" was so long ago that i had assumed the reason there were aggressors in the chapel was BECAUSE we pissed off the angel guys.
[2020-06-22 03:22:48.553] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS)->The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard): Generally speaking, you should know what you are doing before you do it, yes. That's the MO of security, and you have a record a mile long of having ignored this in the past.
[2020-06-22 03:22:51.942] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard)->Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS): If I'm the one who initiated the conflict by threatening them when they had already taken over the entire chapel, I have no idea what else I was supposed to do in that situation. I don't know who actually ATTACKED first but it certainly wasn't me. Is threatening someone the same as acting on that threat now?
[2020-06-22 03:23:13.282] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS)->The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard): If that is the case, I think I have a suitable resolution.
[2020-06-22 03:23:27.898] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: The unloved rock/(Is-A-Lizard)->Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS): Believe it or not ss13 is a game designed around having incomplete information and being the lone member of security does not help matters
[2020-06-22 03:27:07.471] ADMINPRIVATE: Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS) has created a permanent role ban from 3 roles for The unloved rock. Roles: Head of Security, Warden, Security Officer Reason: Banned for murder - As a security officer, improperly escalated an event with three crusaders leading to all three of them being killed by him. Ignoring the fact that he precipitated the events by telling them he was going to do so, going to security to get armed and then using this escalation as justification to kill them, he ignored CentComm direction to not harm them and admitted to acting with incomplete information when dealing with them. Given lengthy note history pertaining to similar circumstances, I don't believe this player has any reason to play security for some time.
And this is how they talked to tanachi, the chaplain, which contrasts so much with how they talked to me that it's clear they just wanted to ban me and only me.
Spoiler:
[2020-06-22 02:58:05.473] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS)->Tanachi/(Constanze Morschaff): Alright, so a bunch of shit went down, so can you explain what happened to you about the crusaders?
[2020-06-22 02:58:21.416] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS)->Tanachi/(Constanze Morschaff): You aren't in trouble, this is just for my understanding of events
[2020-06-22 03:00:22.737] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Tanachi/(Constanze Morschaff)->Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS): I was just trying to talk to them, they attacked me and Bobby first, so I left the chapel and told the HoS what happened, and overheard the pastor say they needed to hold my chapel. I went to robotics, got some flashes, and decided to do things myself because, well, it's my chapel, and what sort of chaplain would let people kick them out of their own chapel. Naturally, since I had flashes, I won, especially with help from the HoS halfway through
[2020-06-22 03:03:30.993] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS)->Tanachi/(Constanze Morschaff): So you were taking care of things and the HoS more or less just included themselves into it, right?
[2020-06-22 03:03:59.103] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Tanachi/(Constanze Morschaff)->Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS): Yeah. I had asked them for help because it was 3v1 otherwise. I asked them to help me
[2020-06-22 03:04:44.526] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS)->Tanachi/(Constanze Morschaff): But you went in with the express purpose of subduing them, not killing them? You said flashed, there were centcomm messages about it.
[2020-06-22 03:05:33.371] ADMINPRIVATE: PM: Tanachi/(Constanze Morschaff)->Dr. Aura/(Tickles-The-INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS): I thought those were for stopping people just outright killing them to begin with. I didn't think it mattered if I killed them or not after they attacked me and the geneticist with swords
The chaplain was even more responsible for the fight than I was, and Aura knew this from this conversation. Aura says shortly into their conversation with me:
Accusation implies statement of wrongdoing by one party: I have evidence in furtherence of the wrongdoing as corroberated by multiple parties. I just want to know what you were thinking when you did it.
This is mostly illegible but it clearly contrasts Aura telling the chaplain shortly into the conversation that they aren't in trouble, despite them being even more involved than me. Even with this said, Tanachi seems to feel like they might still be in trouble so they're careful with their words when replying to Aura, but still clearly denies Aura's accusations. Aura, on the other hand, is effectively asking tanachi how they can incriminate me.
After that point in the conversation is where Aura is clearly just trying to convince Tanachi that I did something wrong so they'll say I did, though.

Aura tells Tanachi that I just "more or less included themselves into it" (Despite this literally being my job) and Tanachi responds by clarifying twice that they had asked me for help and once that we are outnumbered. Aura tries to put more words into tanachi's mouth, that they "went in with the express purpose of subduing them, not killing them" To which Tanachi is nervous but basically says that no, they weren't worried about subduing them. They had no issue killing the crusaders- Which is what actually happened, as the Chaplain had fought the crusaders with lethal force.

The ban reason being grossly inaccurate isn't just a matter of Aura being uninformed on the situation and making bad assumptions, which isn't right. The ban reason is grossly inaccurate because not only did Aura come into the situation with as negative a mindset about me as possible and tried to put words into the chaplain's mouth who was even more involved in the conflict than I was, but because even when my and Tanachi's replies were against what they were saying, Aura spun me being stuck in a confusing situation as a bad thing when that's part of the nature of the game, and more egregiously outright ignored Tanachi specifying that I was just there helping them and that they had no intention of non lethally subduing the crusaders as it didn't fit their narrative.

Next there's the duration of the ban, which is just absurd. There is no reason for the ban to be permanent, except if Aura wanted this to be as difficult a situation for me as possible. By the time headmins were able to remove the ban it had been in place for ten days, and it could've been in place longer had I not appealed it immediately. If it were a week ban or something it would've expired by that time, but Aura made sure that this absolutely ridiculous ban would give me trouble for as long as possible.

The appeal showed further issues with Aura. 11 minutes after the ban is their only real reply to me. I see from this that it's clear Aura had no intention of unbanning me or even making me understand the situation better so I would improve. They just wanted to rub salt in the wound. Keeping the ban permanent and refusing to give the slightest implication of considering otherwise as well as having it be a permanent ban were all to make this as harsh as they could make a ban. I don't think it's fair that Aura be able to make such ridiculous bans over basically nothing, wasting 10 days of any players time because they know that it only takes one admin to make a ban but it takes 2/3 headmins to get rid of one, and that is why I appealed, because I don't think this should ever happen again.
The culmination of circumstances speak for themselves, as does the magnitude of the response in relation to the nature of the offences. If you put a modicum of the effort you spent trying to defend your actions into deciding which actions are proper for the roles you have spent 5 years playing, you wouldn't be in this situation to begin with.
This is incredibly vague and I think mostly exists for them to say they replied to it and to insult me. I find the part about them telling me I should've put more effort into my actions than into my appeal to be awful for a variety of reasons, but especially because later they ban me from detective as well to mirror the prior sec ban. They tell me I didn't put enough effort into my decisions while putting in so little effort that they forgot to ban me from an entire job. (Did they forget captain as well? They're in charge of executions. Maybe they didn't think it was important since my most played character is a lizard so it wouldn't hurt as much to be unable to play captain.) Unless, of course, Aura DIDN'T forget detective and instead banned me in response to the appeal. It's very unlikely I would've been banned from detective by aura had I not appealed. I hadn't even played detective between being banned by aura and receiving the detective ban, nor have I played it since. I don't think Aura was doing it in response to the appeal as much as I believe they intended to make this ban as terrible as possible, but if they were, and that is a possibility, then it's completely unjustifiable. Players being able to appeal a ban or write a complaint without fear of punishment is one of the strengths of TG's administration. I was banned by Aura because I have an open complaint against RaveRadbury and they couldn't punish me. I truly hope that the reason for me being banned from detective isn't because I appealed a ban that I received because I made a complaint.

Whether Aura has let their personal grudges get the better of them when they tried to ban me or they keep this guilty-even-if-proven-innocent mindset with every ban they make, I don't think that it's fair Aura be able to get away with such an utterly ridiculous ban and learn from it that they can ban any player they like for ten days and force them to appeal, so long as the headmins are currently in a situation which makes it harder for them to respond to appeals.

Just to add a some precedents any admin should be familiar with ignored that I noticed.
Except this is saying I murdered three people, not one, which is also wrong (I actually only killed one of the crusaders- and by killed, I mean me and the chaplain TOGETHER brought the crusader to around -40 health, at which point he succumbed.
It's long-standing common practice to not treat succumbing as murder. There is no way to know if the attacker would have killed them or got them medical attention after subduing them, so succumbing invalidates your right to complain about being killed. It's effectively suiciding in that case. So this particular admin antag shouldn't have even registered in the ban.

This isn't kosher. For someone who drops an embarrassing amount of legal roleplaying in their ahelps they don't seem to be aware that punishing someone for appealling is not only not acceptable in this community but would clearly discourage any legitimate complaints. Anyone can say "Oh well I meant to ban him from X" as a way to disguise an additional punishment to the player.

Last point, any reasonable admin would have spoken to me, or a headmin, to dispute my application of a well-known policy. Instead they doubled down. Admins should be neutral and not so emotionally invested in removing players from the servers at any cost.

EDIT: Removed some speculation and additional comments on the advice of Arianya

Lemme just preface this by saying I'm not here to come to bat for either side, but this stands out as entirely speculative.

Anyone can say "Oh well I meant to ban him from X" as a way to disguise an additional punishment to the player. The two options here are incompetence in the original application of the ban (not unlikely given how they've handled the information gathering in the rest of this ban) or maliciousness (also not unlikely given how drasticaly different their approach was to rock and how over the top a permanent security ban is with few recent prior instances of rule-breaking).
The ban was a security ban. Detectives are members of security and are empowered in the same way by most rules, especially in the case of a lack of security membership being called upon to act as another member of the security enforcement team. I don't know why Aura didn't just click the tag labelled 'Security' in the banning panel, or whether that will ban from detective or not, but if this was a security ban it should be included in the ban. This isn't adding an entirely new element to the ban, this is amending a mistake. Don't spin this as punishing rock for appealing, though there is a degree of potential maliciousness behind him amending it in an ahelp, this is speculative at best and can't be proven either way. I'm pretty sure rock was even discussing the fact that he wasn't banned from detective in his peanut thread before he was banned from detective.

And before you argue for whether detective is or isn't security, it is security adjacent and current play tends to see detectives empowered with the same responsibilities and protections as security officers, and most of the arguments against detective being security members being hold over from older policies and perspectives on the role. The only defining aspect that sets a detective apart from normal officers right now is the fact they have a lethally chambered weapon and a different set of tools, and extended responsibilities and more limited access.

If rock did actually play detective, he would have been effectively ban evading, since detective IS played so closely to security as it is, and we already consider attempting to emulate the play of another role you are role banned from as a form of evasion. It is probably safer to include detective than not.
It's telling that dr aura effectively ignored everything rock had to say, except when it came to finding a way to additionally punishing him for appealling with the detective ban. He repeatedly misrepresented the situation to admins in adminbus during discussions as well. I can't post any

Last point, any reasonable admin would have spoken to me, or a headmin, to dispute my application of a well-known policy. Instead they doubled down. Admins should be neutral and not so emotionally invested in removing players from the servers at any cost.
You can't just say there exists evidence to your point and not either get permission to show it or carry on making an argument like we should be taking your word for it. Go ask the headmins to present this evidence if you think it is important enough, or wait for a headmin to do so themselves.

Aside from being peanut posting, speculating on the motives of a third-party admin who is (more or less) posting within peanut policy seems like a random derail.

If you have concerns about an admins neutrality that is for you to either bring to the headmins or to open a separate admin complaint about, not snipe shots in a unrelated thread.

Something that should be touched on first,
Dr. Aura received a narrative of events from the individual running the event in ASAY, which turned out to be inaccurate.
Spoiler:
[2020-06-22 03:01:01.465] ADMINPRIVATE: ASAY: Genessee/(Welds-The-Vents) "Essentially, three crusaders are spawned in with the objective 'take over the [area] in the name of your god' and were explicitly told not to murderbone, but they were allowed to attack anyone in self-defense or if they refused to leave the chapel" (Departure Lounge (98, 67, 2))

Administrators often ask questions of other involved parties in order to in effect "back up" a series of events, while also confirming these things with logs. Dr. Aura failed to properly investigate the situation in this capacity which led to an innacurate and undeserved ban.
That being said, we don't believe there was anything malicious in this ban. Dr. Aura has been asked to be more thorough in their investigations for the future.
