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
() - I was permabanned and I want another chance

Why should this appeal be accepted?: usually when i ahelp something and i don't include information, i am ASKED about it and give answers. Because an ahelp doesn't include additional information a player didn't know was important, and an admin does, in the INITIAL AHELP, doesn't mean its banbaiting. That's what the whole ahelp system is there for. I lied to the crew yes, because they seemed INCREDIBLY harsh judging about breaking plates, of which shards i had thought at the time were HARMLESS. Usually I interact with revenants and nobody really has ever told me that was a problem. it's very interesting to parlay with revenant players and has resulted in an interesting round on more than one occasion. Yes i told the revenant the plates were a gift, but i was asked that in the ahelp, but was banned for banbaiting anyway after the information was given after being asked? I didn't want them banned i just wanted to be revived so i could at least explain why i revived the clown to Lico, the medical doctor, who murdered me. The first ahelp was made because i thought i was being put in perma and was panicking after the sec told me i was charged with littering.

Oh, sorry, I thought I replied to this before going to sleep.

First off, going to start out by saying I got there a little before the shuttle left for CentCom, so it's entirely possible that I missed relevant details. Let me know if there's anything that you think would exonerate you and I can try digging through logs for it. Enough time had passed and damage undone that I didn't feel comfortable speedrunning to act on the rest, but what I saw as banbaiting felt egregious enough that I had to do something about it.

Relevant ticket logs When I first started to look into this I immediately saw complaints about you having mass produced plates to give to a revenant, so I was already aware of that being something people were taking issue with. Looking over logs quickly showed that you had explicitly done this.
You were attacked for doing this and saw fit to conceal why you had done it. You were also explicitly told that it had been causing harm.
And here's where you were arrested for it and blatantly told that it was for giving the revenant ammunition.
So, you gave the revenant haunt ammunition. You tried to deny this, acting as if it was purely a coincidence when it was the explicit reason why you had decided to make a ton of plates. You were told that this is exactly why you were facing aggression. You then made two separate ahelps about how you were facing unjustified action just for breaking some plates. You knew exactly why you made those plates. Those involved in the conflict with you knew exactly why you made those plates. There was absolutely no reason for you to conveniently not mention that you gave them to the revenant in your ahelps. There is a massive difference between saying "I was just breaking plates and making a mess" and "I gave plates to a revenant to be haunted and thrown around despite being told not to and being made aware of the effects it was having". The involvement of the revenant is such important context that I don't see a world where you decided to leave it out as irrelevant information. From what I can see, this is just blatantly misrepresenting what happened to get someone else in trouble with admins.

Now that I've had time to look further into the logs, the only regret I have with how I handled this is that I didn't deal with what seems to be pretty blatant feigned ignorance with giving a revenant haunt ammunition and not making this harsher.

The ban has since expired (Actually seems like it may have already expired when I initially responded?) so you may continue this as a note appeal if you wish. If you don’t have anything else to add I suppose this is denied.
