NikThaGod Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 BYOND Key: nikthagod Total Ban Length: 4320 minutes Banning staff member's Key: alberyk Reason of Ban: Metagaming the cult, by yelling, pointing out and rushing officers to act over the runes he saw on cameras, you were spoken about this already, on the top of a lot of notes/Warning about this. Reason for Appeal: I was called out once for metagaming, even after that i checked the rules and didn't got anything about not knowing the antags, i pointed out because was kinda obvious of people writing runes in a locked place, for what i'm know of, metagaming is when you talk about the game outside the game (like revealing info for a friend in a chat for example), after a long talk with the admin he decided to ban me, i would like to be unbanned because i admit i was anxious over the time i got my first antag and what i did was a bad mistake, but after i did that i took the pictures of what was going on to the chaplain to have a in rp reason to keep an eye on them, after that was when i got banned. I really like the server and i admit my mistake, but i would like to be forgiven for it, since the antag knowledge wasn't know to me, even on before warnings i didn't got what it exactly mean, this time i got that it was about the antag knowledge and how i can avoid it by making up a new situation on roleplay where my character doesn't know what antag things are before seeing them at first and analysing them.
Scheveningen Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 Metagaming is using any form of OOC knowledge that only a player or other character would know about, and applying it to your character's knowledge in IC and taking actions as a result of it. Basically, this is a character exploiting knowledge they do not reasonably have in-character in order to gain an advantage in the round, kill/shut down an antagonist, or generally just being a very serious round-breaking nuisance, et cetera. You did admit where you did wrong, so you get a bit of merit there. What you are referring to is IC in OOC, in which you talk about IC events in an OOC format in an effort to spoil the round, although this can either be intentional or unintentional, sometimes people do it on purpose. IC in OOC is different. Anyway, Alberyk should be on later today to look at your appeal.
sonicgotnuked Posted July 31, 2017 Posted July 31, 2017 Was this yesterday? I almost got shutdown when someone saw me on cameras inside the engineering substation, but good thing ECOM decided to be a gem and tell me I had a warrant, giving me enough time to hide my cult shit inside a toilet.
Alberyk Posted July 31, 2017 Posted July 31, 2017 The main issue is just that I told you that characters don't have knowledge of antags, runes cults in this case, and their tools works just a day before this. On the top of other notes and warnings you got in less than a month of being here. I don't see enough reason to lift this temporary ban when you were told already to read the server rules before.
NikThaGod Posted July 31, 2017 Author Posted July 31, 2017 I actually didn't got when you said that, since what i understood was that we only didn't know about what runes do or how they work, not at all that we didn't know that runes weren't bad, i did read them but i didn't got anything saying that we don't know anything, beside in rp i even tried fixing my mistake.
