Ban/note type (Server Ban/Discord Ban/Forum Ban/Note): Blacklist. Banned from all servers. Banned from discord. Banned from forums (recently lifted so I could appeal).
Ban/note duration: Indefinite
Ban/note reason: On the official TG discord, another user said MrStonedOne got doxxed. I replied "based" sarcastically. This was against the rules of the discord and I got axed for it.
Time ban was placed: 11/21?/23
Server you were playing on when banned: N/A
Round ID in which ban was placed: N/A
Why are you making this appeal? (Put an x in the boxes):
() - The ban/note is factually incorrect
() - The ban/note is not against the rules
() - The ban/note needs modification
(X) - The ban was unjustifiably harsh
(X) - I was permabanned and I want another chance
Why should this appeal be accepted?: It was ignorant and thoughtless of me to make light of someone else getting doxxed. I know now that doxxing is a very serious deal and not something you should make sarcastic remarks about. Previously I had been doxxed before and nothing came of it so I assumed it was harmless empty threats initiated by losers online with nothing better to do and the appropriate reaction was to laugh at people who dox. I'm not making excuses - I screwed up broke a rule and I've since apologized to MrStonedOne - I'm just explaining what mindset I was in.
I attempted to get the ban repealed several times over about a two month period - although other people have stated that while I did break a rule as written the punishment was unreasonably harsh and didn't fit - to no success before giving up and moving on. Over a year later I've looked into getting a repeal since and MrStonedOne - the ex-admin who placed the ban - messaged me on Discord saying "I support you being unbanned". Given that at the time of the ban there was significant disapproval from other people at the harshness of the ban and that the original person who placed the ban would repeal it now if they had the ability, there's no further reason to keep me on the blacklist.
I haven't done anything ingame to receive this punishment. This was entirely for an action done within the official TGstation discord.
(Included is a screenshot of the discord conversation with MSO who said I could share it for my case. Hopefully I didn't jack up the formatting for this at all, I don't usually use these kinds of forums and I don't always "get" html.)
