revBenji - Racism, slurs

Username: revBenji

Ban reason: Racism, slurs.
Length of ban: Indefinite
Ban Issue:
The ban is fair, but I would like a second chance or reduction

Vote Opt-Out: false

Events leading to the ban

As medical doctor Ben Ji, called a lizard sec officer (forgot name) a l*****r after he confiscated a shiv.

Reason the ban should be removed

I assumed that IC racism was an IC issue. I read the rules before playing, but didn’t expand the “No hate speech” heading (thinking “I’m not a bigot so this doesn’t impact me”) and missed the part where IC speciesism is specifically prohibited. Even so that was uncalled for, I apologize.

I enjoy playing on the wizards den servers and have had, in my opinion, a positive impact on the other players I’ve interacted with in the (relative to ss13) short time that I’ve been playing (~20 hours). I would really appreciate if this indefinite ban could be dropped to a temp ban of whatever duration is deemed appropriate. I will obviously not call people slurs IC anymore.

EDIT: Although it wasn’t included in my ban, I thought I would mention that I probably used “retarded” at some point while playing and used “gay” as a negative in the following exchange:

Cargo tech: QM says no materials yet.
Me: Tell the QM that hes gay.

I won’t be using “retarded” or “gay” with negative implication while on the servers if unbanned.

Processing with trialmin

Trialmin started discussion

I forgot to mention that I was trying to be funny in these interactions, not hurt peoples feelings. I don’t know if that changes things. The lizard sec officer laughed IC but maybe that was only because he knew I was about to get the hammer.

The processing trialmin is closing this appeal with the following message:

You have been unbanned after a reduction to one week.
