Ban reason:"Refuses to read rules. Appeal at forum.ss14.io" Length of ban:Indefinite Ban Issue: I do not know why I was banned
Events leading to the ban
I had one antag game where I wanted to fill the distro with sleeping gas to disrupt people and steal while people slept (Only via a manual valve, i was not trying to soft lock the station) but i was found out by the CE and surrounding engineers and I went guns blazing as they tried to arrest me. I presume it was because i was trying to “poison” distro, but otherwise I have no clue why I was banned.
Reason the ban should be removed
Whatever rule I ended up breaking was unintentional, and I had asked prior to the attempt in ahelp if I was allowed to. I was not responded to, so I figured that if I had done something wrong I would be able to smooth it over. The rule that I ended up breaking was not broken in bad faith, and I may have just pushed sillyness a little too far.
I’m sorry if I had ruined someone’s experience or otherwise caused someone strife prior to disciplinary action being taken, and upon finding out the specifics of what I did, I will ensure I do not cross that line again.
This is really odd. You’re not actually showing as banned on my end, and the ban reason you’ve listed doesn’t make sense with the distro stuff / not having been ahelped about it. Can you login and double check for me?
I am still banned yes. The full message when I try to connect to Leviathan is:
Failed to connect to server:
Connection denied: you, or another user of this computer or connection, are banned from playing here.
The ban reason is: “refuses to read rules. Appeal at forum.ss14.io”
This ban will only be removed via appeal, you can appeal at appeal.ss14.io
Attempts to circumvent this ban such as creating a new account will be logged.
I should clarify again that this is my first account and my only account I’ve ever used, and this computer is only used by myself. No one else in my household even knows what ss14 is so I can assure I’m not account hopping lol.
I’ve tried to log into Salamander as well as well as Lizard, and I am allowed into none of them.
Another thing is that the last time I was ever warned about anything had to have been around a year ago at this point, and I doubt there is anything logged that would have me suspected of intentional repeated offenses? I try to be very respectful when handling things like this as well so… Yeah I’m unsure.
No yeah, we’ve been looking into this, you’re not banned - what’s happening is that your IP has cycled and shares the address with someone who was banned, like, forever ago by sheer chance.
I’m hopping on now to lift this; for obvious reasons it won’t count against you in the slightest. Sorry this happened to you!
