BYOND account: UrgBlurg

Ban/note type (Server Ban/Discord Ban/Forum Ban/Note): Server Ban

Ban/note duration: Permanent
Ban/note reason: Banned by host: You, or another user of this computer or connection (UrgBlurg) is banned from playing here. The ban reason is: Started randomly attacking people until killed whereafter they spammed sequences of the N word into dead chat. I guess you're going for the ban run so you win. This ban (BanID #71700) was applied by Iain0 on 2024-07-23 18:28:56 during round ID 232533. This is a permanent ban.


Time ban was placed: 2024-07-23 18:28:56
Server you were playing on when banned: Terry I think, maybe sybil
Round ID in which ban was placed: 232533

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
() - The ban was unjustifiably harsh
(x) - I was permabanned and I want another chance

Why should this appeal be accepted?:
At the time of the ban, I was dealing with a heavy addiction to SS13 and, rather than taking a break like any normal person with self control, I made the stupid decision to cut ties with all servers I enjoyed by intentionally getting myself banned from them — including this one.
My behavior was completely inappropriate, including griefing and using offensive language, and I deeply regret doing such things and wish I never had in the first place.

It’s now been about 9 months. During that time, I’ve had space to reflect and improve my relationship with the game and with myself. I no longer see SS13 as something to obsess over, and I’m approaching it now with a far healthier mindset. I miss the /tg/station community and server and would like the opportunity to return as a better, respectful player.

If the appeal isn’t accepted, I completely understand and respect the decision — my past actions have consequences, and I can see why some lines are hard to uncross.

Thank you for your time,
UrgBlurg

Hey, no problem, glad you can reflect on the experience and that you're in a better place. I can kinda read my own tone of confusion in the comment about "I guess you're going for the ban run", I nailed it but you had no real problematic history here so the sudden diversion into "ban me please!" behaviour was a bit unexpected and notably out of character at the time.

So, no issues here, will unban you, if you feel you need a break in future please just request a perma, i appreciate it's perhaps not that simple at the time when you feel like properly burning bridges but if nothing else lesson here that if it doesn't cost you anything then best to leave doors open just in case.

Thanks for the appeal, hope you enjoy your return and good luck with it all.
