Ban reason: "Indef ban for Bigotry/Discrimination - was called a Honkey, replied "I prefer Herr Honkler". This seems to be an allusion to Hitler. "
Length of ban: Indefinite
Ban Issue:
The ban is fair, but I would like a second chance or reduction
Events leading to the ban
End of round at on Evac , someone said “I don’t like Honkies” and I said the joke as stated in the ban message. It was not out of anger or aimed at anyone, just a dumb joke as the many jokes I tell when playing clown. (not to split hairs, but I don’t think I spelt it Herr, I think I spelt Heir but that’s not important)
Reason the ban should be removed
I understand the reasoning, however I have never been admin remarked for anything remotely related to bigotry or discrimination, really isn’t my character to do that. Again I was not being angry or aiming to make any one person upset. I have seen that same joke used before by others and I will admit its not my first time using that joke as a Clown. Never got boinked or admin remarked for it so I use it (normally when called Honky). If I had been told by an admin that’s not ok I would never say it again and understand why its not allowed. Obviously if my ban appeal is approved that joke is exiting my joke repertoire and I will Ahelp if I see other people using it.
