Events leading to the ban

I latejoined on lizard, took a sci role while I kept on trying to join levi, did my job for around 25~ minutes. Almost as soon as I managed to join levi, I joined a closet skelly raffle then cryo’d on lizard after winning it. Got bwoinked and banned after the round ended.

Reason the ban should be removed

Example of antag-rolling: Ghosting, suiciding, or leaving at the start of a round because you did not get an antagonist role. I believe that the ban should be removed as:
I made sure that observing for ghost roles is NOT against the rules with another admin, and the same admin in question (TurboTracker) told me that antag-rolling is "immediately abandoning your role upon not rolling antag, telling me it’s fine if I cryo after doing my job for a good amount of time. As far as I am aware, observing on one server while playing on the other isn’t listed anywhere in the rules. I also believe that the banning admin (Kayek) abused the golden rule to ban me. While at it, I’m confident that Kayek has been trying to get me banned and that he is the same one who banned me for ban evading with no proof, but that’s a different topic. Also, I was planning to cryo even if I didn’t win the raffle (it’s just that I won the raffle while trying to find cryo on lizard) and would’ve stayed to observe till the round on leviathan ended.

To clarify a few things: I was trying to connect to leviathan while playing on lizard (levi was full) cryo’ing after I got into leviathan but it just so happened that a closet skelly ghost role spawned RIGHT as I joined (I was observing as the round time was at 50 minutes), so I joined the raffle because I was gonna cryo on lizard anyways. I was NOT observing on multiple servers in order to get antag ghost roles.

One more thing, it doesn’t even look like I should be appeal banned according to the banning policy, at most I should’ve gotten a ban for 3 months.

This wording of my explination went on a clear and basic understanding that you would not be server hopping in an attempt to attain antagonist roles.

I’ll edit the post to clear a few things up.

I will once again be editing your post to reflect your in game username. If you make appeals in the future, please use the username you have in game.

The problem is, it doesn’t let me type in my username, just uses the one that my account has.

Hey, is there a reason for why my appeal is locked?

Nevermind this was placed manually, I have no idea why. If you wish to amend your appeal just post a reply.

Just want to touch briefly on the subject you mentioned of admins out for you for clarity of this ban and appeal.
Kayek had nothing to do with your previous ban.
I want to also mention that Kayek also contacted you last week via a game message rather than a ban(Which would have been warranted based on your previous bans, behavior trend) on antag rolling and multiple connections to servers, giving you another chance to modify your behavior before more action was taken.

If you wish to pursue the previous ban further I would suggest to continue that in the Staff complaints section

Yeah I do wish to be able to edit my appeal again.


Yeah I remember the message but my intent here was not to observe on one server waiting for an antag ghost role, I simply wanted to switch to levi as my ping there is lower (I joined lizard to do something while waiting for a slot on levi).

This has been put to an admin discussion and vote of which we have come to the consensus to issue a voucher requirement for further appeals.

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

  • History of repeated rule breaks after several warnings and bans.
  • Previous issues.

You may appeal your ban, but only at least 6 months after your last ban, and only with a voucher of good behavior from another SS13/SS14 server.

A voucher of good behavior should be obtained from a well-known or decently active SS13/SS14 server. If it is a mainstream server, we recommend using that server’s admin-help to ask for a voucher from one of the administrators explaining that you are trying to appeal a ban on SS14’s Wizard’s Den and want to show you have been a problem-free player during your playtime on the server. A voucher should be indicative of at least a few months of play. If the voucher is not from a mainstream server, let us know and we will figure out a way to verify it.

Appeal Denied - Voucher must be provided on any future re-appeal.

Added appeal-rejected and removed appeal-pending
