RainbowSuplex' Unban Request

[Sbeve]

BYOND Key: rainbowsuplex

Total Ban Length: Permanent

Banning staff member's Key: yonnimer

Reason of Ban: "Joined as a maintenance drone and went into the supermatter engine core, bumping into the crystal. Logged afterward.

 
Reason for Appeal: Before I go into this, I would like to say that yes, I am aware that I have already appealed a permaban before. And yes, I am aware that the deal was for my next ban after that to not be able to be appealed. I know. But let me try and explain myself.

So after I log on, I wonder what's in the opposite direction of where I usually go: out to engineering. I see this hunk of a crystal in this immense room. I examine it, and it says supermatter. Hm. I read the extended descriptions, and it says that if it reaches over 7000 Kelvin, it'll cause a huge explosion and the entire station will be affected with radiation and hallucinations and whatnot. It also says that if you touch it, you die instantly and disappear. So I think to myself "Well... what if I just... walk into it? I wanna see the death animation! :o"

So I enter the chamber where it is in. And I don't even consider it, I just walk right into it. Bam. I die instantly, as the flavor text mentioned. However, and I have no clue if the flavor text actually mentioned this or not, if it did I missed it :(( but after I died, it started glowing and ringing. And I was thinking "Oh, well that's probably just the post-touch effect or something." I click on it as a ghost and I see...

THE TEMPERATURE IS RISING THE TEMPERATURE IS RISING OH GOSH

I panick, and instead of ahelping (like a reasonable human being) I disconnect in a panic, because in the heat of the moment I couldn't think straight. So yeah, I just... logged off.

Now, mods, admins, I know what you're thinking. Since I left almost right after I did it, it made it seem intentional. And I can agree with that 100%. If I were in your position, I would've banned myself as well. However, I wasn't aware of the fact that the supermatter would heat up after I had touched it. Also, after a history of admin encounters, I was a bit... scared? Scared and reluctant to use ahelp. I was scared the admins would've been mad at me :(( I was scared I'd be scolded and then banned. So that nonsensical part of me though "I'd rather get just banned than get scolded and banned". 

Now that I have gotten the time to recollect my thoughts however, I realize that I didn't want to get banned at all. I should've ahelped in the end, I really should have. If I ruined the round for anyone (I honestly don't know if the explosion or whatever was cancelled by admins or not, I am assuming it was not) I am genuinely sorry. I know what it's like to have a round ruined like that, it is NOT fun. I am really sorry to the mods and admins as well, for what I did. I didn't want to get banned again. But here I am.

So in conclusion: I didn't know that the supermatter would heat up after I had touched it. If the flavor text mentioned this, I missed it I should've ahelped, but I was afraid I would've been scolded by the staff and then banned, so my nonsensical in-panic brain told me to disconnect, and so I did. I am terribly sorry for anyone who's round I ruined, if I did. So in the end, I didn't intend for the core to heat up, I had no idea that was going to happen, and I feel that it is an honest mistake. That's what I have to say, really. If I do get unbanned, thank you in advance for giving a dumbass like me yet another chance ? I won't redo it, and I will 100% make sure to thoroughly think about any and all possible situations before I do something like that.

I am willing to have an open discussion with Yonnimer so that I can explain more in detail and make it make a bit more sense

For the record, this ban was applied on behalf of @WickedCybs, a trial. So they'll be the one handling this.

I see, it just said your name so I got confused

[WickedCybs]

I am pretty sympathetic here, that was one of two thoughts I had when I was determining what to do. That you either logged out in a panic or did this maliciously. A problem was, like you noted. You didn't ahelp and It's hard to give the benefit of the doubt in that case.

Another issue is that you tried dying to the crystal to begin with. You shouldn't be doing these things just because on the live server. You already have a prior history and that warning. If you really want to test stuff like that out, you can download the code and run the server locally to mess around in without harming anything.

I wouldn't call this the end of the line thankfully, but take some time, appeal again in at least a month from now. I do think you'll get another chance. Take this time to reflect on what happened, please.

If there's anything else you'd like to ask, feel free to do so before the thread closes.
