I’ll look into it this weekend.

I had some time to look at this today. 

 

You sent a ticket which I took asking questions about our tolerance for modern use of slurs and racism, you even used a very clear example on it. After my explanation that it is not tolerated, you gave the impression that you were not a fan.

 

Based on this interaction I felt you were not the best fit for this server given how the interaction seemed to highlight how crucial the above element was to you based on our interaction. The rules state that they do not cover every case and we have discretion as staff. 

 

I’m not completely opposed to lifting the ban. But before I consider it; I need to know why racism and slurs was important to you in combination to it making you seek another server upon clarifying what is acceptable here and what isn’t.

I was looking around for a server to join, and my preference was one where harsh language is allowed. The rules didn't state anything about the extent of harsh language so I asked. I found your answer dissatisfactory and just continued looking through more servers.

I don't understand what caused the ban.

The way that interaction went gave me a lot of red flags to the degree that concerned me. Though your explanation here does explain your motives a bit better.

 

Appeal accepted and ban lifted.
