Ban reason: "Ate and threw away all of Chef's supply of food. Bad attitude to situation in AHelp. Core Rule 2." This ban is for 1,440 minutes and will expireuch as creating a new account will be logged.
Length of ban: march 26, 2025 12:40 AM UTC
Ban Issue:
I did what I was banned for, but the ban is unreasonably harsh
Events leading to the ban
I walked into the food area and started messing around. There was little to no food on the table. I started throwing it around and eating it. I was just messing around a shouldn’t have been banned for this. If you decide I am okay to come back but don’t reach this in time i would like this stricken from my record.
Reason the ban should be removed
Because it is entirely unreasonable to be banned for this long without gibbing or performing self antag, he didn’t even tell me if a report was filed.

Hi. Going go ahead and process this appeal because it’s one of those situations where a lesson can be learned. Going to share the full ahelp for relevance:
Starting off, responding to what would amount to be some basic investigative questions (“Why did you just throw away all of the Chef’s food?”,“Why you eating all the food?”) with a smartass question of your own of “How is this an admin issue” does not bode well for pretty much any interaction. Despite this, the admin in the ahelp more or less ignores the remark and continues on with the investigation in the ahelp, and simply asks you “Could you not”, in regards to rule 2 of “Don’t be a dick”, specifically in regards to fucking with the Chef to the degree that you did.
Most people would take the neutral or affirmative route of saying they’ll cut it out or at least dial it back, but you decided to double down and offer the rebuttal of “im pretty sure the chef has already forgotten about it”, once again demonstrating that you had no interest in trying to resolve the issue the admin was inquiring about, thus prompting the escalation to a ban versus a warning.
To further emphasize that point, you seem to think that the admin is beholden to telling you whether or not a report was received about an issue (Spoilers: The chef literally reported you for doing the shit the admin asked about in the ahelp) when the fact of the matter is, if an admin comes across an issue that appears to be in violation of server rules, they are empowered to look into that issue and take action if necessary - with or without an ahelp being filed by another member of the server at the time of the incident. I’m going to be completely honest here and agree that the core issue you got ahelped for initially is astonishingly minor and in 99% of cases would likely be a verbal warning. But you chose to be the 1% and argue about it in the ahelp and as such, I have no sympathy for your situation.
tl;dr you quite literally talked yourself into a 24h ban by being a dick in the ahelp, appeal is denied.
