Shorten my ban?

[Durper]

Byond ID:Centive

Character name:Bob Sunday

Admin who banned you:SpeedyBlast

Initial duration:3 days

Duration remaining:3 days

Reason for ban:I c4'd myself becuase I learned that round you can put c4 on yourself.(I'm fairly new to SS13)

Your appeal, including evidence (an http://www.imgur.com album is recommended for multiple screenshots): Plus Admin lied to me.

Dude... Really? I honestly think the ban is completely fair. First off, there were hardly any marines in the first place. Then, during briefing we had one guy - I think he was a specialist- Hugo Clark C4 himself and blow himself up and also nearly injure a few other players because he did so right in the middle of everyone. Pretty sure Admins took care of them.

Then, YOU do the same.

No, I personally don't think you should get a shortened ban. Also, if I was hearing the comms right, you did this on the shuttle. So I'm pretty sure there's a chance of spacing other people, depressurizing the shuttle and all that lovely BS that could've killed other marines.

In my opinion, what you should have done after learning that you could put C4 on yourself is say to yourself "Wow, I didn't know you could do that!" and then NOT do it because it'd kill you.

The actual ban is 24 hours only, your next infraction will be three days. Honestly, i could have been harsher, but you had only been banned for 6 hours previously. You can wait it out, its not that long.

[Durper]

Cool then? experimentation is bad

[apophis775]

Ima step in and set it to 3 days.

You deserve the 3 days for being so fucking stupid.

Honestly, your VERY LUCKY I wasn't online, I'd have permabanned you. This is NOT 4chan. If you pull that stupid shit, expect a LENGTHY ban, cause I'm putting a note on your ckey that next time you do something on what I call the "shitstain" level of stupid, your getting a 10 day ban.

Fucking seriously.

Edit/Disclaimer: If you do something EVEN MORE moronic, and get a perma for it, you can't use this as evidence to try and bring it down to a 10-day ban. I feel like that's something you'd do.


Additional Edit: Since your not responsible enough to even look at explosives, I'm also throwing a job-ban on you for each job that has access to C4. Enjoy.

I even angered the mighty Apop, sad times

[apophis775]

Suicide bombing, strikes a VERY specific cord with me, and the way you went about it, was such a high level of stupidity, it makes me want to say very bad things.

[Wickedtemp]

The fact you did so after the first suicide bomb incident makes it worse.

100% this.

I honestly can't fathom the stupid that must be going through your head, to have at ALL thought this would have been a good idea and that you wouldn't have gotten punished.

I should probably go to sleep, before it gives me an aneurysm.

[Durper]

Well I'm guessing I should say I'm sorry then, seems like it bothered you a lot, hope you don't hold this against me forever. I can change and stuff

[Wickedtemp]

Yeah, just learn from this mistake... In my opinion, if you get infected and dragged into a nest in the Hive, and you've got C4, and you know what being infected actually means (this is the REALLY IMPORTANT PART) then I think you can blow yourself up to suicide. But don't to the "ALLAHU SPACE AKBAR" shit... I mean, c'mon, man... I don't want to shit on anyone's 'lulz' but have some decency when trying to make a joke. In my opinion, it's not really the time to joke about that shit, especially given recent events that I'm SURE you've heard of. Also it may/may not fall under the "No insane marines." ruling, I suppose that's completely up to Staff.

[apophis775]

The more I think about this situation (and talk with other hosts/staff members), the more I think I don't want someone who would do this on my server...

[Ordukai]

The obvious solution is to create an IC Shame Vidscreen for people who we've banned throughout the round in order to discourage people from doing the exact same thing minutes later.

As amusing as I think that would be to see, I don't think that would be the ideal way of going about it... If I was staff and I saw a guy blow themselves up like that.. Marked for a ban, and then I'd make an announcement in big, easily seen font.

"If you suicide bomb for no reason, expect an immediate ban."

It's rather difficult to miss announcements like that, and people who do this SHOULD know it's kinda against the rules to begin with.

That said, if a shame thingy is what you guys decide on, go for it. I'm kinda on the fence between "Okay, they were a little shit, but they shouldn't be strung up and shown to everyone like that." and "Yeah, they deserve it at that point for being a stupid shit."

[Ordukai]

The shame thingy was a joke :P
Also if admins made an announcement for every time someone did something they obviously weren't supposed to do... "OOC: If you shoot other marines for no reason, that's griefing and you'll be banned for it"

[Wickedtemp]

Also a valid point... So it's either Staff makes the announcement or does SOMETHING that lets everyone know that "If you do X, you'll get banned SO hard."

Or they make no announcement and trust the players at the very least glanced at the rules and know better. Which may end up being the better option.

[apophis775]

You know
we could have a loud "BANNED" sound played, and it announce the player and the reason.

[Wickedtemp]

That would work! Hard to miss that. I'd even be in favor of a more harsh ban for people doing that SAME bad thing after the first guy was banned for doing that thing. Because at that point not only are they breaking the rules and doing something bannable, they are also being a complete asshole about it.

[Durper]

Am I still being roasted here? Am I not allowed to show myself in the sever anymore? that's kinda too bad I really wanted to play this game some more, especially with the map updates and stuff. by the way what is a "ckey"? and will apop ever forgive the banned people?

[apophis775]

Ckey is your Byond name. It's how your tracked. And your ban expires like tomorrow I think.

[Durper]

What about the job-ban how long will that last? Does it last forever? I kind of liked being spec. is there a way to appeal for that in some form?

As far as I know, job-bans are permanent until an admin removes said ban. I could be wrong though.

[apophis775]

You will have to prove yourself for the job ban. I mean, you literally did the stupidest possible thing, in the poorest possible taste, right after a large terrorist attack in paris.

[Durper]

How do I prove myself? just play as a good marine for forever then ask again for a job-unban in a later date?

[apophis775]

basically.
