Events leading to the ban
I rolled librarian at round start and because there is no real job with that role and no real reason for someone to visit I would declare my “department” independent and painted revolution around. Some people wished to join and roleplay, I had no intention of actually starting a revolution or causing actual trouble so when asked what the people who wanted to join could do I drew the line at actual issues like murder. More people joined (around 5 roughly) and a secoff walked in trying to arrest a mime, I attacked without weapon and told him to leave because to my knowledge he was just arresting the mime for no reason. then he pulled out his batton, slipped on a banana peel and lost it, then started shooting when we (I actually missed this part) chased him out then he started shooting and got beat. I knew after that we accidentilly self antagged but I wished to go no further. Security’s hands were not tied by any big problems to my knowledge and rarely did secoffs actually come by. Most came by peacefully too. I was getting arrested for I assume what happened when I got the ban. Some time had passed between the main incident and the ban where nothing much happened.
Reason the ban should be removed
We did not actually cause harm to the station, impede anyone’s jobs or roleplay and only responded in self defense. The revolution was only a poor choice of wording and did not intend for me to actually cause revolution. I also did not know that would count as self antag as I did not wish or intend to harm or impede anyones job. Security was mostly unbothered by this besides the incident. All I wished was to roleplay a fun thing with some people and I would have been perfectly okay with in game punishments which were going to happen without the ban. A week long ban is a bit extreme since nothing was actually done to the station or the round and a “department revolt” was the library which is non critical and run by 1 person (me).
