MattAtlas Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 So, you've been very hostile in the discord the last few times you were there, which is why we banned you. Do you have anything to say about this? Do you think this behaviour was well warranted? Link to comment
Scheveningen Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 In no particular order. You were a little more than just 'very hostile.' . . . . . . . . . . . Honestly, if you were unable to be civil and got banned for repeatedly crossing the line of decency over and over and over again, I don't think you should have the privilege of being able to chat with other users on the discord again.

Bauser Posted April 24, 2018 Author Share Posted April 24, 2018 Schev's had it out for me ever since the first time I disagreed with him on game mechanic suggestions. My first interaction with him was his explicitly stating how dumb I am. I concede that my defenses haven't always been strictly constructive, but they're no more vitriolic than anyone would be if they were similarly vilified over similarly nothing. I'm not a punching bag. I do apologize that other people were exposed to that vitriol, but he blocked me when I spoke with him in private (as others suggested I do). So yeah, when somebody tells me that feeding the homeless "isn't really helping them," I'm going to call them a fucking idiot. It's a service I provide free of charge for the moral character of Aurora. Of course, now I know better than to even engage with those discussions, so I can provide some reasonable expectation of better civility (since apparently that's held in higher regard than good). My purpose in making this appeal is not mainly to apologize but simply to furnish the administration a fresh chance to do the right thing. Link to comment

Understand your mistake. Agree with the punishment. Want another chance? Then this is the place to be. It seems like you're in the wrong place. Link to comment
Bauser Posted April 24, 2018 Author Share Posted April 24, 2018 If you think so, maybe it bears mentioning that I was banned long after this drama subsided. Perfectly quiet, didn't see it coming, wasn't informed as to the particular onus. There was no reason save for the sour taste in people's mouth and their desire to have some scapegoat for it. I didn't do anything another dozen members wouldn't have done if they were in the same position, and that's not a bad thing. It's just a learning experience for everyone involved. Link to comment
Faris Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I didn't do anything another dozen members wouldn't have done if they were in the same position. They'd also be banned. Constantly insulting other members of the community in arguments for no reason despite several warnings. Ban applied on behalf of MattAtlas. It's just a learning experience for everyone involved. The idea is that this would hopefully be a learning experience for you, as this is a ban applied to you. This does not appear to be the case. I'm going to deny your appeal after a brief discussion with [mention]Datamatt[/mention]. You cannot appeal this ban again before the 24th of May, alternatively you can contest this with a staff complaint against both myself and [mention]Datamatt[/mention] Leaving this open for another 24 hours.

Faris Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Go fuck yourselves Point proven. Extending appeal limitation to 24th of July and applying a 3 day forum ban. Locking and archiving. Link to comment
