summerwinters Posted October 18, 2016 Posted October 18, 2016 BYOND Key: SummerWinters Total Ban Length: 3 days Banning staff member's Key: youjustgotowened Reason of Ban: Breaking Doors on Odin after the round had ended. Admin announced multiple times that the attack logs needed to stop multiple times. Continued to hit the door with pickaxe after being pm'd. needed to be winded to stop Reason for Appeal: Okay, so before i start i dont mind if you guys dont unban because i admit i did break the rules but first let me explain from my point of view. So i had been waiting for a while on the Odin for the round to end and i got bored and decided to see what's in the thunderdome so i smash a window in and look around. Nothing. So after a bit i go wandering around and see that the people in the security checkpoint are trapped inside, given how i had smashed in the window earlier without any complaints or pm's from the admins i figured this was a time they didnt really care so i started smashing the door to break them out, one of the sec guards and a couple other people if i remember correctly joined in (and they never were punished as far as i know and i dont think they should be but that's just my opinion) and we break the door down, then i get a pm asking why i'm hitting the door and i tell them "because someone's trapped in there i'm trying to free them" (or something to that effect) and i wait a bit i think i honestly dont remember but if i didnt im sorry, and i figure that the reason was good enough and i go back to hitting the door, seconds later i get a PM saying that doesnt matter its still against the rules, and asking if i have read the rules, and that the admin had said multiple times now that the attack logs need to stop or something to that effect and then a message saying i need to stop that and i get winded, im being fully cooperative and explain that yes i knew it was against the rules but i was trying to break them out, and explain that i honestly never saw them, which i was told they were large announcements that took up the whole text box so if you dont believe me when i say i never saw them, i dont blame you. But i swear it's the truth, i honestly never saw them. so a few minutes go by and im banned. The reason i'm making this is because at the very least i dont want this on my record looking like i was being a defiant little shit with the admins continuing to break the rules on purpose after being told to stop, i've always been cooperative and apologetic in admin PM's because i honestly want to just play the game and have a good time not break the rules.

Owen Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 Alright hi, banning staff member here. You were given a ban due to the fact that you were breaking the door. Normally, you stop what you're doing once PM'd by a staff member questioning your behavior. It is true that you were continuing to hit the door up to the point where we needed to wind you for you to stop. Based purely on the fact that this was End of Round grief, you were banned. I asked if you read the rules because it is directly stated there. ◦Attacking people on Central Command, the escape shuttle, the escape pods, or the escape pod ship, without legitimate roleplay and IC reason is not allowed. If you have questions about this clause, please contact a member of staff via adminhelp! ◦Security is allowed to conduct legitimate arrests during End of Round procedures. This includes performing arrests on the escape shuttle. ◦Conflict is permitted to continue elsewhere on the station, and in the escape-arm/shuttle if there's prior roleplay involved. ◦If at the end of round a member of staff requests that all attacks be stopped, please do so. Our goal at the end of each round is to tidy up any staff business as soon as possible, so the round may restart, and being flooded with attack-logs will make this more difficult, thus creating longer delays. But since this is your first time and I can see where there was slight miscommunication looking over the PMs, I'll unban you. I don't want to see you doing this again or there will be a more severe punishment now that you are aware of what you've done wrong. Also, So i had been waiting for a while on the Odin for the round to end and i got bored and decided to see what's in the thunderdome so i smash a window in and look around. This is a no. At the end of round just ghost if you want to explore somewhere. The staff are trying to get the round finished up and onto the next one. Random attack logs don't help the situation.
summerwinters Posted October 19, 2016 Author Posted October 19, 2016 Alirght i wont do it again, and thank you, but it seems im still banned when i try to join the server.
