[TechnoAlchemist] Dilithium - Syndicate permaban.
Posted: Thu Feb 04, 2016 8:01 am
Byond account and character name: Dilithium // Nan Donovan
Banning admin: TechnoAlchemist
Ban type (What are you banned from?): Syndicate Antag Ban
Ban reason and length:
Time ban was placed (including time zone): 7:00 am, 4/2/16, UK time.
Your side of the story: Okay, this might be quite long, it's pretty much a story of how the entire round went to shit. It started off pretty well, we all donated our points, we brought Cayenne to life to be our mascot, and then one of our ops has to go, so we get a new guy (Marz). He takes around about 50 points, runs into the drop pod solo, and launches it into the Captain's office. Our commander (Adan) wasn't too happy about that, so he started screaming down the headset at the guy who dropped the pod, then he starts ranting about how we're not going to attack the station and we're going to do something else instead. At this point, me and the other two operatives (Lennox, Quinton) are totally down for attacking the station, Lennox is trying to sort out our remaining points, we're thinking of plans, I was going to bomb armoury and telecomms with the big red button, the other three were meant to try and get the disk, ect. The commander, not wanting this to happen, stands in front of the console and refuses to let us launch. We try and persuade him to do so, so he turns around after sending the shuttle back from wherever it was (I think someone managed to launch it), and shoots the console with his pistol. At this point, I've left the bridge, and I hear copious amounts of gunfire, then everything goes silent.
At this point, I'm pretty much certain that I'm the only op left, because pod guy was dead, commander was dead, and prior to the gunfight Lennox and Quinton were contemplating suicide anyway, so I had thought if they hadn't died in the gunfight, they would probably kill themselves. I set up two Syndicate bombs, and intended to blow myself up and end the round since we can't exactly get back onto the station, and an one-man ops team would be suicide even if I managed to rebuild the console, when out come Lennox and Quinton from the bridge. I try to explain myself and diffuse the bombs, but they shoot me to death and leave before the ship blows up. Then they start fighting in the launch bay, and soon enough there's only one guy left. The captain is raging in deadchat at the lizardguy, the admins are getting involved, everyone starts saying that the shuttle exploding was sick (Multiple syndicate bombs at once have a ridiculous blast radius, apparently), that they'd probably do the same thing in my boots, and that this was a mess of a round, and I ended up permabanned from Syndicate.
Why you think you should be unbanned: I can totally understand the ban from Syndicate, I did even say to the admin involved that I wouldn't dispute a ban. However, I do enjoy Syndicate rounds, when they go well for the team. I'm not the most robust these days, but I still have a good amount of fun with them. I'd like to request that my ban is shortened, to perhaps 2 weeks, a month, a month and a half, rather than a permanent ban. I'm not going to say that the ban was uncalled for or unjust as I fully agree that me bombing the shuttle was, in hindsight, a bit of a shitty thing to do without making sure that the rest of the team were not alive, and I've already apologized to all two living members of the squad, but I'd like to see it shortened from a permaban. It'd be nice to be able to play Syndi again.
