Ganondwarf

BYOND Key: Ganondwarf. Total Ban Length: 1440 minutes. Banning staff member's Key: SleepyWolf. Reason of Ban: Take into account your character's comfort. Wearing hardsuits or internals for a prolonged period of time would be very tiring or uncomfortable. Do not wear these items without good reason. Directly disobeying staff. Reason for Appeal: I was playing this round with my character Julian Caesar, while wearing a gas mask. Suddenly, I got PM'ed by the aforementioned staff asking me to take off the gas mask. I asked his motives and then he quoted to me this line in the rules "Take into account your character's comfort. Wearing hardsuits or internals for a prolonged period of time would be very tiring or uncomfortable. Do not wear these items without good reason." Until then, it was alright. I started arguing with him why my character was wearing the gas mask and tried to reason with him that, if the shift obeys real life time, it'd be barely 1 hour and a half since when the shift started and my character was wearing the gas mask. While I was trying to attend my obligations in-game, he kept PM'ing me constantly and I kept answering him that it was like the Engineer's hard-helmets. And hard-helmets are also likely uncomfortable to wear, but it's part of an Engineer's uniform so they HAVE to wear it. But even if gas mask isn't part of an officer's uniform, wearing it for 1:30 hours is not enough to make someone feel uncomfortable and I told the moderator that my character felt safer with the gas mask (as I told a few people in-character too[Azukah, for example]). It indeed WAS regarding comfort, since Julian feels safe with a gas mask while it prevents some hazards. Still, SleepyWolf kept PM'ing me and he managed to piss me off when he kicked me of the server while I was in the middle of processing. I got 30 seconds to get back online in the game and then he kept PM'ing me, lastly saying: [Moderator PM] Sleepy Wolf: You cannot directly disobey staff, or the rules. Take into account your character's comfort. Wearing hardsuits or internals for a prolonged period of time would be very tiring or uncomfortable. Do not wear these items without good reason. [Moderator PM] Sleepy Wolf: If you do not stop wearing it right now, there will be some sor tof punishment. And then, after I answered them I finally obeyed his appeal and: Okay, I know I've exceeded myself calling SleepyWolf an asshole. And I'm deeply sorry for that. But he'd already had kicked me from the server and kept PM'ing me in the middle of processing. We were having trouble that round handling a couple of antags, spiders and had no Warden. So I must appeal for you guys to be reasonable with me. Even though there was no reason for SleepyWolf to pick on me and I gave him reasons enough why my character was wearing the gas mask, I indeed took the gas mask off before he banned me for 1440 minutes and it was not even "right before", it was 2 or 3 minutes before the ban.

Like I said: I really like the server. I returned to SS13 a few days ago, after a couple of years away, and I met Aurorastation. Ever since, I've been played by your rules all the time. I roleplay by two characters: Ethan Caesar and Julian Caesar; good cop and bad cop, respectively. Ethan is a Cadet with a kind attitude and Julian has a bad temper. What saddened me here wasn't the ban. It was the reason. You guys are accusing me of logging off and I'm not a griefing coward. Never was, never will be. But then, a moderator decided to go trigger-happy on me and then, ban hammer. I'm really sad by this. lol

Here is the log from the point where I threw the pepper-grenades until I got banned. I didn't log off.

I did NOT logged off. I was logged in all the time. Until I got banned. I didn't receive any message from you guys. lol

As the message says: "to try to resolve this matter". I AM trying to resolve this matter. But you're accusing me of something I didn't do. I don't grief. I play by the rules. lol

I told you: I didn't logged off. That's just an excuse. I really like that server and I NEVER did anything out of Role-Play. I've been admin-pm'ed sometimes, but NEVER to be accused of griefing or something. I threw TWO pepper-grenades and then my characters has gone unconscious (it was not me, he was indeed getting continuously unconscious because of the brain damage, it's your own damn coding/system's fault!). I saw my character being dragged by someone wearing a clown-mask and everything. I'm telling you, I didn't log-off. And I'm not asking to be unbanned. I'm just trying to understand your reasons. Which are not reasonable. lol

So, the message I received was: "Reason: Detonating pepperspray grenades at the end of the round and then logging afterward.." Logging? Logging what? I didn't log-off. My character was suffering from brain damage ever since he got cloned. As a RP server, sometimes you receive the message: "The pain is excruciating!" As you may know, pain - specially in the brain - can drive people insane. My character had a bad temper, that's a fact. And the medbay simply "slacked off and denied treatment" to him, as he thought. (Actually it took the whole round and he didn't receive any treatment for his concussion.) So he started vandalizing medbay, breaking outside windows and such. Nothing harmful. At the end of the round, he just throwed pepper-nades inside the shuttle in an act of insanity. IT WAS NOT GRIEF ON PLAYERS. IT WAS NOT HARMFUL FOR CHARACTERS. IT WAS JUST AN ACT OF INSANITY. IT WAS PURELY ROLEPLAY. So I want to understand this ban, alright? It was handled by Scheveningen. Waiting for answers.
