Ban reason: Found bizarre messages of threatening to finger someone while log diving
Length of ban: Permanent I think? Says “banned from playing here”
Events leading to the ban: This was a pretty old thing that I vague remember, I don’t remember if it was looc or in-character, but it was meant to just be a silly in-game vague threat.
This was weeks ago, and the ban message literally calls out this was “log diving,” which sounds like they were just trying to find a reason.
I recall someone said that it could be misconstrued as ERP, which was not the intention, so I dropped it there.
I’ve admittedly done a few stupid things here since I’ve started playing, but I never have an intention of round removing people needlessly and I’ve consistently improved based on admin feedback.
Reason the ban should be removed: I’ve been a pretty consistent player always listening to admin intervention and overall trying to get a grasp of the rules and improve as a player. This was an older instance of my playing and one that I pretty quickly and immediately pivoted away from when someone said it could me misconstrued as ERP.
The intention was to be more of a vague threat as to what fingering was, wasn’t really thinking of anything in a sexual way, was just meant to be silly.
I feel I’ve been recently targeted by a few players who have been excessively ahelping me, with one specific admin that has been scrutinizing many smaller issues.
Most recently I crit a guy who started disassembling furniture at my chef station who refused to stop and tried to run away with the materials.
I had ahelped the admin asking about nukie evac being recalled, and instead they started drilling on me about critting a guy who stole my stuff.
I carried the guy to medbay immediately after critting him and by next round he apologized and I clarified I had no animosity, but the admin seemed very upset I didn’t call sec and simply let the guy steal my stuff and hope sec can track it back down.
I had even stopped attacking him hoping he would stop running, but he did not.
After getting the proper escalation clarified in Discord to confirm that I had followed the rules, I played a few more rounds without issue.
Suddenly finding out I’m banned from someone who log dived weeks into the past to find a single instance worthy of a permaban sounds excessive and like targeting.
I’ve questioned some admins judgements in the past, but always aim to learn from mistakes and improve how I play.
