BYOND Key: CarsonEagle Total Ban Length: PERM Banning staff member's Key: pratepresidenten Reason of Ban: "Poor antag play and OOC misconduct." Reason for Appeal: It has been over a year since my banning from the server. As I've said before, I'm deeply sorry for what happened over the incident and how poorly I conducted myself. It was immature and I paid for it. If the admins would please show a bit of trust and mercy in me, they would not be disapointed. Many don't understand that I do enjoy RP, that the experience of building stories, characters and these overarching plots is so thrilling to me. Its the reason why I play this game and can't get past LRP servers. If the admins would be so kind and please unban me, I'll be very grateful. Its been a year and I've learned lots. This particular server, this one tiny server changed how I viewed character development and the emotional ties we form with the players around us. I realize this is more than just a server but a strong tight-nit community that I disrespected.

Hello! It's been nearly a week since I made this appeal, and was just wondering if anything is being done, I don't expect an immediate response as I understand these things take time, but I'd like to know if anything is being done at all. Thank you so much!

Hello again! I'm sure none of you are pleased to hear from me again. But, I'll be brief. Let's get the business stuff out of the way before the official thing, yeah? BYOND Key: CarsonEagle Total Ban Length: PERM Banning staff member's Key: pratepresidenten Reason of Ban: "Poor antag play and OOC misconduct." Reason for Appeal: Alright, here we are. Listen, I want to come out and say that I am sorry for what I said and did during the player complaint post. It was immature and I should of taken it more seriously. I saw the complaint (at the time) as a joke, and had no intention of taking it seriously as, in the end it is just a game. It was my mistake, and I paid for that. It's now apparent, when it comes to personal misconduct that I should take it on the chin, and look at the complaints people have given and use their complaints to further myself forward. The antag play, was entirely my fault as well. I believe there is an image of me, stating in deadchat after being killed "I had no plan, or story. I just wanted to blow things up." Which, is entirely true. What separates Aurora from other servers, and honestly had me absolutely fascinated in the first place, was the ability to make your OWN goals as an antag. Of course there were cults, and other antags that did indeed have a set goal by the design of the gamemode. But the base traitor? Oh man, now that's legendary. The possibilities are endless. Now, in the beginning I did indeed struggle with the "don't kill people until the round 15-20 minute mark" or whatever it was, however this was rectified and explained to me by one of your staff members and I fixed it. What happened later down the line wasn't that I was blowing things up or robbing the station, was that I had no in universe, character motivation, or reason for doing it. I didn't think, I needed to so long as I made the act of doing it interesting or fun. This was not true, and I realize that now. Aurora in my brief time in SS13 was some of the, and I mean it; hands down best RP and gameplay experiences I've had since the early days of Gmod and my xbox live Halo days, where I'd make machinimas with my friends (that honestly were really bad) I've made actual friends with the people I've met here, real relationships that I do indeed cherish. And all I can ask for, from you the Admins is to allow me to come back to the server and play with them again and resume the fantastic stories that we were ONLY able to build and make with the tools that your coders and admins allowed us to have. I spoken with the individual who had me banned from the server, and had a nice pleasant time with them. All I am asking is for the staff at Aurora is to forgive me and allow me to continue on playing and having a fantastic time on your server. If you have any questions, please message me either on my discord or reply to this post. Thank you for reading and have a lovely day! -CarsonEagle

I rarely ever touch forums, as I rarely open up my web browser as I can do most of my work and job from my phone, so I do not get notified of such happenings. The handle was given so I could actually get in contact with individuals who saught to complain, if they were complaining in the first place then they obviously knew or had some semblance of having an idea of what was wrong with my playstyle. By giving them my handle, then we could open up a dialogue about said playstyles causing me to improve. I do not see the issue here, and would like to understand why it is such a bad thing.

I will preface that I do indeed agree with the ban, however. After discussing it a while ago in a VC call with an anonymous friend on the team, it was rather unsual for the post to be closed after one comment from me on the complaint topic. There was no warning or discussing furthermore after my comment, telling people to directly DM me their complaints.

I did take them seriously, after finally being messaged and linked the forum list. As I've said, many times; I gave my discord to the people in the complaint post for they could DM me and allow not just a direct form of criticism but a conversation about said situation.

I want to state that the reason why I did not take the player complaint seriously, was because of the individuals acting on it were doing so in bad faith according to members of the community I have spoken to. Most of the complaints were indeed well founded, however they lacked a greater context to the situations they described. I'd like to note in the complaint, I gave my discord handle and asked everyone to contact me directly so that they could criticize me and I could take it in account.

This is absurd, and completely unjustified in the first place. The context behind those bans do not relfect on the individual I have become. Locking me out of any hope of unappealing will only reinforce the idea of never improving. I respectfully ask you to reconsider this otherwise nuclear option.

BYOND Key: CarsonEagle Staff BYOND Key: pratepresidenten Reason for complaint: I believe that I deserved punishment for what I did and said, However, complete and utter lockout on appeal is not right. I understand the reasoning behind the ban, but not the punoshment. because what I did was wrong and I agree. I have spoken, members of the community and select staff about this issue, there was more than just "you did a bad thing" that went into the reasoning of my ban. I would love to discuss this in detail with members of staff, and how we can come to a conclusion.

Awesome, thank you.

It's been a week...

It's been updating!

Can this be moved to complaints? I simply just want a lowered punishment.

BYOND Key: CarsonEagle Staff BYOND Key: pratepresidenten Game ID: N/A Reason for complaint: Listen, just hear me out. I believe that I deserved punishment for what I did and said, I do. However, a perma ban, not only a perma but the ability to not appeal it in six months is down right unjust in it's truest form. I would of taken any punishment and understood why, because what I did was wrong and did not fit the server. However, after speaking with select members of the community and select staff about this issue, it is clear to me that this was way beyond any simple ban. I'm not requesting a return and lift on a ban, but an easement of the punishment. Evidence/logs/etc: N/A Additional remarks: N/A

If you guys have a complain against me, just DM me on discord CarsonEagle#9618. There we can discuss it directly and cut off the head of the snake. I don't look at the forums at all, so just do it there for the best result.
