Ban reason: Metacommunication with RamadanSteve
Length of ban: unsure, says “ban will only be removed with ban appeal”
Events leading to the ban: Me and ramadan steve were walking around talking to some people around the ship, we were not schemeing or planning to do anything wrong, just chatting and roleplaying with some of the server members when we were locked in the freezer together, i then got a message from an admin asking how we got trapped there and told him we were left in there when the chef accidently closed the door behind us, admin asked if i knew ramadan steve in real life and i explained that i did, but i wasnt trying to metagame or anything, and i was willing to shut off communication to continue playing, but this was followed with a ban.
Reason the ban should be removed: i was simply helping him with learning the controlls of the game and wasnt trying to spoil the experiance of other players, we werent attempting to gain an advantage on other players.

also if possible see if this appeal can extend to Ramadan Steve as well
Your friend will have to appeal separately if they wish to be unbanned.
I’ve reviewed the round in question, from the look of it the replay matches up with your description of events, It can be difficult to learn with a friend as it can give you an unfair advantage as you do. But I did see you both communicating with others, there were just points where you both would run off and not talk at all like when you supplied your friend with the medical gear.
Like the banning admin mentioned in the aHelp we can not tell your intent of the metacommunications so we assume bad intentions when identified. I would recommend turning off comms and try use the in game one when you next join with a friend. I can sympathize with challenge to learn the many mechanics in this game, most people in game are more than happy to help out and teach if you ask, also one of our project managers does a really good job with explanation videos here that I would recommend: https://www.youtube.com/@Liltenhead
