[bmon] T3hSurge - Belittled/punished while acting in good faith

Post by t3hSurge » #703297

When and where this incident occured (Game Server, forums, Discord): Manuel
Byond account and character name OR Discord name: T3hSurge (Aaron Noton)
Admin: bmon
ROUND ID HERE IF APPLICABLE: 214116

I found this interaction extremely frustrating, and wanted to complain about it as it's not usually how my admin interactions go. Throughout the whole situation I felt treated as guilty and a malicious actor, although I did not and do not act in bad faith. In other situations with ahelps when I make a mistake it's usually made clear what went wrong. Instead of an impartial inquery I was hit with comments like "HoS isn't for you" and a ban reason that made it sound like I harmbattoned someone to death. In reality I made a mistake with an arrested plasmaman's tank, and after removing it during search and replacing it/toggling it on, I falsely assumed they would recover.

Short series of events as I understand them after the fact:
  • Make valid arrest
  • Plasmaman engineer comes up, slips me and releases the arrestee in cuffs.
  • I stun and cuff the plasmaman.
  • I accidentally harmbaton, and do it again on purpose because two hits ain't so bad and I'm mad IC and OOC about it anyway.
  • Brought to a cell and given 3 minutes. I believe after searching, removing a pocket plasma tank, and putting it back and toggling it back on, THIS is where they were accidentally crit.
  • I forget to uncuff.
  • They die, I get bwoinked. Head to cells to recover.
  • I check cells, all doors are open and they appear gone. (As ghost I could see they were still in the cell dead, hidden by darkness.)
  • Bwoinkening continues, at this point I am upset, confused, and a lot of stuff is happening in the round.
  • I go into my office and suicide as I am very frustrated, useless to security, and busy trying to deal with the bwoink.

Ban reason: As HoS harmbatoned an engineer who had slipped them while preforming an arrest. Left the engineer critted in a cell until they died. Refused to make the situation right when asked to, instead committed suicide.

2023-09-07 05:01:00: Ticket Opened by bmon: Hey, why did you harmbaton Titanium into a crit and leave him buckle cuffed in his cell?
2023-09-07 05:01:37: Reply from t3hsurge: I didn't crit them, nor did I leave them untimed. I might have forgotten the cuffs though.
2023-09-07 05:02:02: Reply from bmon: they are very much so critted in their cell and the last attack logs are from you
2023-09-07 05:05:15: Reply from t3hsurge: My baton died, I have no idea why the second hit put them in crit. It was two hits. How about you ask them why they interfered in an arrest they had no business in?
2023-09-07 05:05:46: Reply from bmon: They're a plasmaman, they take like 100% more damage or something like that
2023-09-07 05:06:05: Reply from bmon: How about we not leave them crit in their cell for starters
2023-09-07 05:06:32: Reply from t3hsurge: I didn't know they were crit, why did they interfere with an arrest anyway??
2023-09-07 05:07:09: Reply from bmon: That's an IC issue that you're more than willing to solve icly, however, critting them and leaving them buckle cuffed in a cell is not.
2023-09-07 05:07:46: Reply from t3hsurge: Ok well neither were intentional. There's too much going on and everyone is being a shitter.
2023-09-07 05:08:55: Reply from t3hsurge: How the fuck does anyone handle this job when all the shitters and antags get all the protections, and I make one fucking mistake and it's bwoink hell.
2023-09-07 05:10:00: Reply from bmon: You've basically round remove him. I asked you to make it right and you've committed suicide now great
2023-09-07 05:10:24: Reply from bmon: I really wasn't planning on noting you for this but you've forced my hand
2023-09-07 05:10:43: Reply from t3hsurge: He wasn't in the cell!! I can't do 8 things at one time and all you've done is make this more stressful.
2023-09-07 05:11:21: Reply from bmon: It'd take you less than a minute to uncuff him and epi pen him
2023-09-07 05:11:48: Reply from t3hsurge: I couldn't see them in the fucking dark, whatever. Fuck this job. One mistake and I get shit on, but everyone else can self-antag and shit all over me.
2023-09-07 05:13:19: Reply from bmon: Hold on let me get this right, they slipped you once with a peel. That's what prompted you to do all of this?
2023-09-07 05:13:44: Reply from t3hsurge: So they interfere in an unrelated arrest, shoved me and let the criminal go.
2023-09-07 05:14:35: Reply from bmon: I see them passive grabbing you and you getting slipped, I do not see a shove
2023-09-07 05:15:51: Reply from t3hsurge: I was mistake, but what's the difference? They get to fucking interfere with arrests and shit with impunity, but two hits from me in accident then leaning into the RP of the accident and I get fucked over?
2023-09-07 05:16:44: Reply from t3hsurge: Seriously, how does anyone do this job, if a single mistake puts me in this accusatory hell. WHY DID THEY INTERFERE WITH AN ARREST, the death was a mistake. Who dies from two hits??
2023-09-07 05:17:58: Reply from bmon: Because you managed to kill them over slipping you and when I asked you to make it right you committed suicide. If you can't take the pressure maybe HoS ins't for you.
2023-09-07 05:18:38: Reply from t3hsurge: I looked for them, I didn't see them and the door was open. You've treated this whole ticket in a very biased way.
2023-09-07 05:20:09: Reply from bmon: I do not believe I am being bias to anyone here, I don't know the engineer and don't really know you.
2023-09-07 05:20:39: Reply from bmon: Regardless you really need to re-evaluate how you play security, you can't beat someone into crit and leave them buckle cuffed in their cell critted until they die.

2023-09-07 05:24:23: Reply from bmon: They're a plasmaman, plus you removing their internals messed with them a fair amount.
2023-09-07 05:24:37: Reply from bmon: Just so you are aware I am upping this to a day sec ban
2023-09-07 05:25:23: <a>Bmon</a>/(June Creighton) has created a temporary 1 day role ban from 5 roles for T3hSurge.
2023-09-07 05:26:02: Reply from t3hsurge: Ah sure punish me for innocent mistakes. Very impartial and judicious of you. Thank you for easing my frustration and understanding my mistakes.
2023-09-07 05:26:35: Reply from bmon: I asked you to make it right and you in response killed yourself. I gave you the benefit of the doubt
2023-09-07 05:26:49: Reply from t3hsurge: I tried, they appeared GONE I said that
2023-09-07 05:26:51: Reply from bmon: I need to restart the server, feel free to ahelp next round if you want to keep talking.

While you may not be making a complaint directly about the ban itself:

Admin's banning conduct can not be the subject of an admin complaint. That is what appeals are for, and the appeal leading to the ban being overturn is the minimum bar required before a complaint can be filed that references the ban conduct.

Banning conduct can factor into the actual ban itself as and as a result appeals need to happen. Please recreate this thread as an appeal, as linked above.
