Your side of the story:

Here we go.

As a medical doctor, I was patrolling around looking for any wounded individuals. I see a clown, whose name escapes me but started with an Ma I believe, being beaten by the captain. Unfortunately this captain was very bad at robust, so he tried to push the clown down before cuffing him. I tried to help by pushing the clown down myself. When the clown was down, I saw the captain turn into a monkey and incorrectly assumed that the clown was a changeling. I stunned the clown with the captain's own gun, cuffed him, and started to drag him to the incinerator. In short, he got away, and I still hung onto the belief that he was a changeling and tried to warn people.

(additional info below not pertaining to my defense)

Spoiler:

Later on, and I don't fault him for this because I think it was awesome, the clown tracked me down and wanted to fight me in an epic duel. Story short, I won because I still had the cap's e-gun. Then he tried to attack me but slipped on his own banana peel. He stormed off and I never saw him again after that.

Why you think you should be unbanned: It was a misunderstanding, but I believe I was justified in thinking that the clown was a changeling. It does suck that he was permabrigged for it, and I apologize to him if he ever reads this.

You saw the captain turn into a monkey, so that means the clown is a ling? Or was that a typo?

[Neonwarrior]

I thought that lings had the ability to turn others into monkeys at will?

[elyina]

They don't.

Clown here. You know, you apologized and it seems like you honestly thought I was a changeling - I forgive you, yeah. I wouldn't be against him getting unbanned.

The reason for the ban being a perma one was that I wanted you to come to the forums and explain your side of the story as you had logged off by the time I had messaged you in game. In the end now you know changelings can't turn people into monkeys and you apologized, 10/10 appeal. Logging on to lift it now.
