SmileyDemon Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Smileydemon/BygoneHero/Wisewill: Perma Don't remember Dodging a Synth Ban: Reason for Appeal:I will not try to dodge bans again, and really liked this server. I recently started playing again and would like to once more. I will not breach that trust that admins place in their players again.
Garnascus Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 It would help if you could tell us your original ban reason as well as why you tried dodging it rather than appealing it in the first place.
SmileyDemon Posted January 19, 2016 Author Posted January 19, 2016 It was a long time ago but it was a Synth ban because I think I law lawyered and someone reported me for it. I thought it was an unfair ban so I dodged it with an alternate account. As for the specific issue I will look in the forums for it and link in this post. Here it is I think, what led to the perma ban http://aurorastation.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=2455&p=24393#p24393
Garnascus Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 You where given a synth ban after a consistent history of gank, law lawyering, and powergaming as AI and borgs. The complaint you linked was apparently the last straw. You where given a perma server ban after ban dodging on alts and living to staff about it. My problems are a few. You straight up admitted to metagrudging someone and then when you where synth banned for it you felt the ban was unfair...? I don't really understand the thought process.
SmileyDemon Posted January 24, 2016 Author Posted January 24, 2016 I don't remember exactly what I argued about or why I thought it was unfair, but I know I ranted on the forums about it. I'm not going to do that again, and I will not evade any further bans in the future. edit: I think it was that I was banned for talking lewdly and I argued that people then on the server did it all the time. Also I have talked with some of the admins prior but this ban was removed on server but still on forums, I'm not sure what exactly was put as my ban reason, because my ban does not exist outside of the forums.
Garnascus Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 Sorry, its just taken a bit to track down exactly what you got banned for and why. some stuff happened IRL and this got forgotten i guess >.>. anyway i need some other opinions also this http://aurorastation.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=2455&hilit=smileydemon is what i was talking about. im legit not going to accept "i dont remember this". theeen you did it again a few days later here http://aurorastation.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=2518&p=28494&hilit=smileydemon#p28494 ring some bells?
SmileyDemon Posted February 3, 2016 Author Posted February 3, 2016 theeen you did it again a few days later here http://aurorastation.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=2518&p=28494&hilit=smileydemon#p28494 ring some bells? Â I don't remember the context of that issue, but it says very plainly in the report that the laws were altered to make that behavior ok. In fact the report was never really addressed as it ends just with the ckeying. The first report is the first ban that started all of this, reading the report it has alot of useless information in it where everyone seems to have forgotten the forum rules. I think it happened only because that particular player was cussing me out or something for no reason and to retaliate I annoyed them with something equally stupid. The entire report is back and forth like this. The point is, I'm not going to act like that anymore I enjoyed playing here and I hope that I am given the opportunity to prove that my behavior in the past is exactly that, in the past.
Witt Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 I know i am not involved directly in this unban or any of his previous bans, however; I am one of the few players who was around for wisewill's pre-smiley days and have a fair bit of incite into his behavior past and present. Smiley/will/ whatever he goes by has a long history as a troublesome AI player in ways such as rule lawering, self antagging through ion laws and general dickish behavior as synthetics. that being said from the small bit I have seen him as a non synthetic he was a decent player. examples of his questionable AI antics: - Using the singulo is taffy ion law to release it towards the station killing everyone (multiple times) -metagaming various vox/nuke/ninja/wiard rounds by door chrushing and killing any RP before rounds take off -going malf without ever interacting with crew -door chrushing and plasma releasing so often that memes were created in his honor (il post them when i get out of class and back to my primary PC) -and other behaviour I am not in any way stating to unban him or not to, I think that there is a middle ground that we should try. I personally feel that he should be given a chance on an extreme final warning (similar to the plahunter fiasco). meaning let him come back on an extreme probation, take away any whitelists( head and spiecies) he has and impose a ban on all synthetic units, after X amount of time (assuming he hasn't) been banned again or left the server allow him to begin applying for whitelists and synth unbans. To me this sounds fairly reasonable and we haven't seen him ban evade or cause us any other sort of grief since the last ban request on his alt account. but again Im just a lowly mapper trying to bring a close to an issue
Garnascus Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Alright, after a looot of talking with other staff im going to accept your unban-appeal. consider yourself on probation for the time being. I mean it, one miss step can send you right back to perma-ban land. your synth ban is going to stay for the time being. you can appeal it after a bit. sound fair?
SmileyDemon Posted February 4, 2016 Author Posted February 4, 2016 It sounds good! Thanks for this chance!
Garnascus Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Ok, in theory you should be unbanned now. if you have any other ckeys that also got admin bot banned you will need to tell me them.
SmileyDemon Posted February 6, 2016 Author Posted February 6, 2016 I've been able to, thats what made getting the reason so hard. None of my previous bans existed on server, I only found out because on a whim I tried to connect to the server and my permaban was gone. I ahelped about it and thats when I made this to get the previous bans resolved.
Garnascus Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 excellent. well you only had a single permaban applied to you and i removed it. sooo if you can log on now all is well. locking and archiving.
