[Cdb] Deraekan - Permaban Appeal
Byond account and character name: Deraekan, Lucas Brindle
Banning Admin: Cdb
Ban Reason and Length: "Aided/took part in raping/sexually abusing another player with Robx1q." Permanent
Time ban was placed: 2013-04-01 22:26:57 EST
My side of the story: This may not be entirely accurate as it's been over a year since the incident occurred, but: Me and Robx1q ran into eachother on a random name/appearance round. We found a person we believed to be braindead, dragged them to the escape shuttle, and pumped them full of sleeptoxin. The round ended, and I emoted "whips his 5 dolla foot long out Lucas Brindle (as Landon Marshall) poons dat poon". The next round http://pastebin.com/qkXyAVyV occurred and I was perma-banned.
Why you think you should be unbanned: Honestly, I'm glad I was banned. I was becoming a belligerent player and I needed a long break from the game. If I wasn't banned for the rape incident I would have eventually been banned for something else, it was only a matter of time. While I am grateful for the break from the game, I believe that I am sufficiently changed from the person that was banned that if I were to rejoin the SS13 community, I would be a positive contributor. In addition to this, I believe that Robx1q, who got permanently banned for the same reason is now unbanned. So if whoever handles this ban appeal finds that I am genuine in remorse and character, then I would appreciate a chance to show that I have changed.

An0n3 is the one who unbanned Robx1q. I'm not sure who banned you however, this should probably be left up to elyina (who's in charge of bans currently) or a headmin.

Cdb's the one who banned me. I don't believe he's an admin any more but don't quote me on that.

Re: [Cdb] Deraekan - Permaban Appeal
After talking it over with everyone (and I mean everyone) the consensus was to leave the ban in place for now.
Rob's conduct since being unbanned was brought up as a positive reason why this might be worth reconsidering. Since this event and his unbanning/probation he's played on and off without any incident. Kind of a model player, proof that sometimes you can make a mistake and be involved with something like this and then never do anything like it again.
Conversely though he was kind of an accessory to the whole thing, so his ban was taken a little more lightly. To be blunt, these kinds of bans are looked on the harshest of all and everyone seemed to favor upholding it on principal.
I would recommend waiting a bit, and if you could make another appeal with same reasoning and tone as this one when people are feeling a little more forgiving or generous (maybe towards the Holiday season?) you might have better luck then. For what it's worth I do have some sympathy for your situation given that you made a very genuine appeal and especially considering Rob's excellent behavior.

As firm as I am on banning shitlers who toe near the "don't force erp on people" rule, I still think the whole 'poons that poon' thing doesn't come anywhere near permaban territory for the same policy.

I don't mean to question the admins' judgement, but I don't understand why I am being treated as the primary offender when me and Rob1xq received the same ban for the same reason.
However, I do appreciate the time and energy of the admins involved in this appeal, and I also appreciate your counsel, An0n3. I may appeal again as the holidays near. Until then, I wish you all the best.
