Don't allow "everything I said was a joke" as a excuse

Much like we don't accept "my brother did it" for ban appeals, if someone is appealing a ban and they get caught posting about how shitty the server is in places repeatedly while banned, and then appeal and claim "it was all just a joke!", it shouldn't be accepted.

Picture for reference:

In the defence if he who shall not be named I do recall a discussion in which multiple admins agreed that things said on singulo were not worth considering in ban appeals and such

Unless you got a source for that, I'm gonna have to say it wasn't actually written into policy, as it's been referenced in You-Know-Who's ban appeal and the admins didn't seem to buy it.

I support this. If you don't like it, suggest change without causing drama by shitposting or going hard on with ban requests. If you think it's that bad to the point where you shit on it constantly, get out. That's what I did years ago and it worked. Things might change in time and you can freely come back later on.

Not saying it was brought into policy, nor am i saying that it should be the way things are. I am merely pointing out that it did at one point happen. I don't give enough of a fuck to go forum diving but i think it was a paprka appeal maybe?

I'm fairly sure the reason for it came back to the fact that it's piss easy to impersonate people on singulo.

Yeah, but in the event they say they posted it (like in You-Know-Who's appeal) that becomes an invalid point
