Your side of the story:
I was an engineering cyborg. The clown (Grandmaster Honk) rode me and asked for a couple things. After that, I remained in the hallway whilst setting up something else on my computer, I hear the telltale sounds of module changing and I see the clown has hacked me right in public. The captain sees the hacking so we rush to get to the robotics console before he does. I quickly stun-arm the captain and a few others who run in to the RD office and and they all get slaughtered by myself and the clown. Wanting to destroy the computer/board and cause some collateral damage I prepare a plasma tank which I have retrieved by RCD deconstructing the adjacent toxins wall. The clown sees the cannister and rides me. I release it and move away before using the APC to overload circuits and ignite the fire. The fire expands quickly and the shutters and fire doors come down trapping the clown and myself in the toxins area, the other toxins canisters break and the pressure from those, the fire door and the security shutters are making it difficult for me to escape with the clown. Eventually I do but the clown has been set alight and inhaled a cocktail of gases, I am struggling to get him out into maintenance to take him to medbay when a roboticist comes along and flashes me and deconstructs me. I then disconnect.

Why you think you should be unbanned:
I didn't intentionally get emagged, I assumed I was safe to leave SS13 for a minute since I was just in the main hallway and didn't think anybody would try anything there. I admit I made some pretty silly mistakes, the clown didn't directly tell me to set fire to the RD's room and although I don't remember him ever asking me not to or telling me to stop if he did then I am sorry. I screwed up from an execution perspective but I had every intention of setting science ablaze and riding out of there with the clown. I did not mean to kill the clown, it was simply because of my poor plan and execution that he died. After that, I did intend to save the clown however I did not expect the roboticist to flash me. I disconnected out of combination of shame and not wanting them to waste time rebuilding me since I was not planning on sticking around. I would not have disconnected had I known an admin wanted to talk to me about the events. I apologise for leaving so quickly and in future will give a grace period after these kind of scenarios for admins to contact me.

I understand that the permaban is in place so we can have a discussion about it, I appreciate there are some grey areas here that leave me open to some punishment but hope you can understand most of the fuckups were done from a place of stupidity not malicious intent. I'd also like to apologise to the clown for ending his antag round so quickly.

I was in this round and the clown was using the engiborg to actually protect himself from me by riding it. He'd stabbed me in the eyes and I was trying to beat him, so he stuck his clown ass on the borg and was riding around on him.

I believe there is a message system in place if you want to tell someone who's logged off to show up for questioning now?

[Gouty]

Yeah, I've lifted this. I can understand if it was an accident. I had multiple people telling me that you had done it on purpose, and the logs seemed to point that way, coupled with the fact that you logged out immediately.

In future if you are part of a complex situation where you think an admin might want to talk to you maybe stick around, or tell the admin you need to go. Sorry for not just making it a message.

Edit: And I spoke with the clown, they have seen the thread and are cool with it, maybe apologise in deadchat if something similar happens again.

Clown here,
well the thing I was mad about was the whole releasing toxins thingy without me telling you to do so which really fucked up the situation, but I guess it was pretty shitty to begin with so accidents do indeed happen, I forgive you wink wink
