Ban reason: "begone bigot"
Ban Issue:
I do not know why I was banned
Events leading to the ban
I’m not sure exactly why I was banned but I do have a good guess. In a discussion about Hopper closing someone asked if the word “new[f-slur]” was an acceptable way to refer to new players, which I responded to by saying no, it wasn’t. Others responded similarly and the topic was discussed a bit. I then made a lighthearted joke asking if it would be okay to say “[f-slur]” if we provided proof of being lgbt (I am Bisexual, not that it matters), and that got a timeout from the bot for containing a slur, which I understood & dropped the matter. Got hit with a ban a few hours later while discussing welding mechanics.
Reason the ban should be removed
Assuming this was the reason for the ban I think I should be clear and say that what I said was in no way done to be hateful, bigoted or offensive, and I apologize for using the word. It was being discussed at the time this happened and my intent was in no way malicious/bigoted, and I apologize for making a joke in poor taste.
