Events leading to the ban

The power was out and I took a peak into engineering for the spare insulative gloves that they have lying around, no damage or invasive wirecutting, opened the door went in. I grabbed a couple of pairs to give out to others. Takes-The-Bit was there too since we were walking towards the same place(I figured he was going in too) I went by sought Takes-The-Bit to give them a pair of insulative gloves because he was a fellow passenger but before I could say or do anything he took great schadenfreude in reporting me to security right away, which seems to me to be an act of pure spitefulness. Although I am aware of the legality, I don’t think I was harming anything or anyones play by walking into an empty engineering room and picking them up.

In OOC I proceeded to call Takes-The-Bit a “bootlicker” and a “bitch”. I do agree that I should have been more choice with my words but the intent was not to be explicitly sexual rather as immediate shorthand. Ultimately my impression is that they were acting in pure indiscriminate spite which I found to be so surprising that I took it personally which reflected in my language.

Reason the ban should be removed

I don’t go out of my way to be toxic or mean to people and I live-and-let-live. In this instance I was flabberghasted to the point of losing my cool. I still don’t get what makes a person be like that for no reason, to basically a stranger.

I don’t think it would be difficult for me to be more mindful with the language I choose to use.

This has been put to an admin discussion of which we have come to the consensus to remove the ban.

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

  • Genuine appeal.
  • Zero tolerance rule.

​​​​​​​Appeal Accepted - Ban Removed.

Added appeal-accepted and removed appeal-pending

Thank you to the admins involved, I know it must be a bit of a drag to file through the appeals. I apologise too if the language was a bit indignant the appeal was quite hot off the press.

Cheers!

Would it be possible to have my whitelist access be reinvoked?

Being dewhitelisted(and for who knows how long) may as well be an extension to my ban if I do say so myself. I simply have no interest in playing on the LRP servers.
