Server ban appeal - Steme

Your SS14 Username: Steme

Your Discord Username (only needed for Discord ban appeals): Steme

Banning Admin's Username: amethystowo

Server ban: permanent

Round ID (if applicable): 16121

Reason for Ban: irresponsible antag gameplay x4

What lead up to the ban: It was a survivor gamemode. Sec killed a dragon, then I decided to start a war for killing him (also made an announcement) with Sec, killed most of them, and sadly caught 3 crew members in collateral damage with a fireball. Never executed anyone, I belive 2-3 guys got gibbed because of fireball.

Why you should be unbanned: First of all, I'm sorry for my antag gameplay. I clearly did not interpreted the rules as they were meant to be interpreted. All 4 of my bans were caused because of my bad escalation as antag.

I will be taking an oath that I will not be playing any antags for a month straight (I will leave only blob and nukies turned on, if it's ok), and in this time I will learn more about how to play antags responsibly on Funky. I hope I can say that there will not be a fifth irresponsible antag gameplay ban EVER!

The only reason I'm asking for an unban is because I really love the player base on this server and how people roleplay here. I have never been banned for anything besides irresponsible antag gameplay. I have never been toxic or I have never insulted anyone, and I always try to be respectful to everyone. Out of my 730 hours in SS14, 270 of them have been spent on Funky, so yeah... I think I love this server.

P.S. "* sights", thanks for reading all of that. I would love to hear any response. In short, I beg for forgiveness :( and one last chance to cleanse myself, and I give an oath that I will not be playing any antags for 30 days straight, to learn.

Edit 8 jun---
I would also like to add that I never got banned for the same thing twice. First time, was traitor I killed most of med (trying to search for CMO hypospray, no gib/roundremoves was involved). Second time, in the space combat threw secoff in the space as traitor (He wasn't my target, just needed him to remain dead to reach my target). And now the third time is killing most of sec as wizard for killing dragon. Don't remember what I got a warning for, but I think it was bombing sec for being rude as skelly, not sure (I was very new back then).
Yeah... As you can see I am never repeated same mistake twice. I just need a bit of mentoring (And I will be searching for it!).

The porblem for me was that there was none examples for escalation written in rules, example "Evil wizard decided to start trial by combat with stantion. When he sohuld stop? How many casualties is enought? First time wizard will never know when to stop it without outside help", it just one example out of dozen.

(About my traitor bans)
"Chill escalation for antags" I interpred as objective < rules (you can do whatever you want if it gets you closer to the objective) and I already learned that I was thinking wrong, thanks to the Gostir. I never been doing it for racking up kills or for breaking rules or to make someone day worse, I just... Didn't understanded the rules, BUT NOW I DO! I would like to prove it, I hope I still can...

P.S. Thanks for reading all of that too! Damn... The edit bigger then first message itself, funny.

Only five admins voted on this appeal, with 5 for deny.

Part of the reason why this was voted as such was because:

  • It's the fourth offense. You have had many chances and have had long conversations about escalation. While you could argue killing your dragon would give reason for causing chaos, it should be centralized on the offender and not going on a murderboning spree. As the only ones in the rules are Nukies and Dragons. Blob would also follow that.

  • We can't reasonably be expected to explain every possible antag scenario to you.
  • Argumentative, which is a big reason why we feel less willing to allow a try-again situation.
