Ban Appeal (How Can I Grief If I'm Not Even Connected To The Server)

Post by Arachnidnexus » 12 Dec 2016, 23:34

Your Byond ID: Arachnidnexus

Character Name: That round I was playing as Percival something, one of two researchers.

Type Of Ban (Job-ban, Timed Ban, Permaban): Timed Ban

Admin who banned you (if known): localizeddownpour

Total Ban Duration: 5 Hours (?)

Remaining Duration: 5 Hours

What other servers do you play on? Paradise Station historically but not much anymore

Are you now or have you been banned on any of them? Nope

Reason for ban (If you have a Permaban, it should be the EXACT MESSAGE YOU GET WHEN YOU LOGIN with the Error code that looks like this: X##XXX##. If you do not provide this EXACTLY you can't be unbanned): Image

Link to previous appeals for the same ban (if applicable): n/a

Your appeal, including evidence (screenshots, etc): I don't understand how I could have griefed because my internet connection was flaking out on me. I spent the round building cloners and making meds while the other researcher was tinkering around with chem nades. After my connection kept dying as I was autopsying aliens I just quit out of frustration. Made food, did boring things, and then came back to this confusing ban. Since I was not even playing I have no idea how I could have possibly griefed any other player; I believe that the admin who banned me made a mistake in identification. I would like this ban to be removed and to have any notes attached because of this ban removed as well.

It is possible that due to a Byond error this ban was placed on you by mistake (Not necessarily through the fault of Local). He's on right now, so I'll talk to him about it.
TLDR: Go back and read it. I spent time writing that, ya know.

Oh right, this has happened before with EORG bans, hasn't it? Thanks for the quick reply.

Looking into it now. I got a ahelp a researcher was griefing with nades, and blew themselves up in the lab.

An explosion was centered on you so I assumed. If I made a mistake I am very sorry and will fix it asap.

I don't know if the other researcher was griefing, but he did accidentally blow himself up with a chem nade and took out a cloning scanner. He apologized for it and I brushed it off since the scanner was pretty easy to rebuild. I have no idea what happened after I quit because of my iffy connection, but I guess it's possible another of his grenades got detonated.

So. After looking into this I've found that the other researcher took your nades and used them, killing you in the process.

I came into the scene seeing you dead with an explosion around you, with an ahelp saying you killed yourself.

I am very sorry and I'm removing the notes now.

Thanks LocalizedDownpour. Although to clarify the grenades were not even mine. I didn't even make any grenades that round because I was busy with cloners and chems and alien research.

Edit: Also thanks Ordukai for noticing this super quickly.

No worries, I figured you'd probably mistakenly identified me since there were two researchers that round.
