HazyClover48608 - Perm role ban & 21 day game ban for handing botany weapons

Ban reason : “Using command privilege to supply botany with guns and stolen recharger from bridge when security was trying to raid them. Gunning down a sec during an arrest. This is accompanied by an appeal only role ban for command.”  

Events leading to the ban : I was playing Quarter Master normally, supplying the crew, until Atmos came and handed us two canisters worth around 230k in total. After receiving such a sum, I did the most logical thing any Quarter Master could think of - GAMBLING! With an unnecessarily new found wealth of useless garbage, I decided the crew was more in need of it than me. After making a run of the station I saw botany was about to be raided by security and threw them a ‘Retro Laser Pistol’ which to me is an insignificant weapon and is not enough to stop security but add a funny sense of roleplay (Botany some how has a laser gun and attacks security as they raid), I for some reason decided to give botany the charger as well for it from bridge. At no point was I attempted to be arrested but I did see a botanist get arrest and his buddy shoot the officer with the retro pistol.

I do not believe that I deserved to be banned for this amount of time considering I had no real action in what the botanists did with their new toy and would prefer if it was shortened to 3-7 days. Yet again a ban for all command roles is ridiculous to me, I’ve never experienced them before and I’m willing to compromise at a role ban for QM but preferably would like to keep that role too, so I can learn from this ordeal and improve

Length of ban : 21 Days -  30,240 minutes


Role(s): All of command (Aside QM)

Length of ban : Permanent

Events leading to the ban : (Same as above but I’ll copy and paste anyways) I was playing Quarter Master normally, supplying the crew, until Atmos came and handed us two canisters worth around 230k in total. After receiving such a sum, I did the most logical thing any Quarter Master could think of - GAMBLING! With an unnecessarily new found wealth of useless garbage, I decided the crew was more in need of it than me.

At no point was I attempted to be arrested but I did see a botanist get arrest and his buddy shoot the officer with the retro pistol.

Reason the ban should be removed : (Same as above but ill copy paste as well) I do not believe that I deserved to be banned for this amount of time considering I had no real action in what the botanists did with their new toy and would prefer if it was shortened to 3-7 days. Yet again a ban for all command roles is ridiculous to me, I’ve never experienced them before and I’m willing to compromise at a role ban for QM but preferably would like to keep that role too, so I can learn from this ordeal and improve

This has been put to an admin discussion and vote of which we have come to the consensus to reduce the ban from indefinite to 2 weeks.

With regards to the role ban as it has been combine in here, this has also been put to a separate vote and the consensus was to deny the role ban until after the ban has been served, you can appeal the role ban post the end of this ban.

The reasons provided in the discussion for this decision were the following:

  • Long time for the issue.
  • Command is held to high standard.
  • Role ban should not be considered until ban has completed.

Appeal Accepted - Reduced ban ending Tomorrow.
