DISCORD: kumawebcomicartist: Rule 8 Gif Reaction
Posted: Mon Nov 06, 2023 3:07 am
Discord username:kumawebcomicartist
Commonly used names: Kuma
Banning admin: Gwyn (one of them, unsure if it's spicygwyn or the other one thats the mod)
Ban reason: Posted a Speech bubble reaction gif that broke rule 8
Time ban was placed: Friday, November 5th, 3am EST
Your side of the story: I posted a discord reaction gif that was in violation of rule eight. I don't feel there's really a certain "side of the story" to this sort of situation, other than the fact of it being three in the morning meaning it was fairly likely my judgement on "should I post this" probably wasn't that great.
Why you think you should be unbanned: Obviously "I was tired and didn't think things through" doesn't make my actions okay, but I do feel that I may as well provide some explanations for why the above post was made in the first place. As far as my memory serves, I don't think I had been in any situations with the server admins prior to this - bans, mutes or otherwise - so if I may, I'd basically like to give the reasoning of "I did something dumb during a moment of impaired judgement, and realize that it was, admittedly, something I shouldn't have posted." I understand and accept that this isn't far off from saying "sorry I was drunk when I did x", but I feel it's the closest thing to an explanation I have, and I also understand that I'll still have a temp ban in the case this appeal goes through.
However, if possible, I was wondering if there's any way I could access the coding channel during that time period, as there's a PR i've been working on for a month now and the code maintainers are helpful on that sort of thing. If discord doesnt allow specific channel access, thats fine, and I understand.
To put things simply: I've learned that, as usual, "if you think you shouldn't say something, you probably shouldn't" applies, and that I should go to bed instead of being on discord at 3 AM.
