The player took what I said out of context. If he was recording the entire thing, why didn't he upload the part of our first encounter? Earlier in that round, I had been faced hugged, placed in a nest, rescued, then been evacuated out to get the alien embryos removed. Right after that, I take the next dropship down to be ambushed and face hugged AGAIN by aliens. I already saw what would happen if they weren't removed and it would result in my death. I was rescued by the player and his company but I informed them I was infected and would die only to put their lives in danger. So I did my best as a squad medic to make sure they were healthy enough to fight before I parted ways.

I didn't think I could have had the embryos removed if there was no doctors or equipment available and considering the ship was being overrun with aliens. I've seen other players throw grenades or overdose themselves on drugs in order to kill themselves or escape nesting situations. I didn't kill myself in an attempt to rage quit but to damage the embryo inside of me. I've seen people do it before and was told that it's a mercy killing which was different from suicide. I might've been misinformed or lied too but I should've asked if it was okay before doing it which in the end was my fault. I thought I was a really good squad medic because I helped a lot of people. And I thought I performed my duties at an optimal speed, considering you've to target certain body parts to be treated with different kits including administering different pills afterward. I've roleplayed on plenty of different games and I know the difference between in-character and out of character. The reporting party took what I said out of context and assumed it as metagame when it wasn't. I was saying "Bye, I've to go" as in I had to do this to protect them. Not as in, I got to log off cya later.

I would like to be given another chance as a squad medic because I could perform their duties very well and I thought I was roleplaying them correctly. I do not play any other support roles such as engineering because being a medic is something I enjoyed playing the most. I wasn't roleplaying in an unrealistic manner or had an unrealistic name. I made a mistake of suiciding while playing a very important role but thought would've been acceptable given my circumstances but it's never allowed. Yes, I am new but being lenient would mean everyone that broke the rule would be able to break it without any consequences. I ask that I wouldn't be permanently banned from the role but at least be banned for a period of time and have the chance of playing the role again in the future, if any unban should happen at all.

Just so you know, all jobbans are permanent until appealed. This is partially because of how we store data, or something.

It's entirely possible that they missed you saying "I got crabbed" and only saw your final speech, which didn't do much to explain that you were infected. It's very understandable that your actions there would be mistaken for improper suicide, but it seems like that's just due to a communication error. I think it should be fine to unjobban you from medic, and perhaps even have the note removed.
TLDR: Go back and read it. I spent time writing that, ya know.

I pulled the logs for this yesterday, but while searching the logs I did find the point where he was attacked did scream for help, and did say something about "I GOT CRABBED." However the thread was deleted when I tried to post all the logs, and I've lost them.

This is being lifted as your story does indeed check out after further investigation. Apologies for the inconvenience. However next time, try and give more of a reason to your peers rather than "I've got to go" which easily could've been interpreted as "I have to leave and can't cryo and so am going to waste this slot."

Resolved - Jobban lifted and respective note removed.
