Ban Appeal - bigmanshack - 07-29-2022
Your Name: bigmanshack
Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): STEAM_0:0:536597591
Reason for ban: ARDM / NLR
Length of ban: Permanent
Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): apology
Why should you be unbanned? Initially I was banned for two days in a sit. I don't really remember what happened but don't think it was anything crazy. I'm looking for recordings on the date listed to see if I know what happened. I'm just not sure why I got a permanent ban, and if that's the case then I apologize for anything that may have happened and remember thinking the 2 day ban was fine? I had just started taking the server seriously and making a lot more money so I find it strange because I wasn't minging all that much anymore at the time.
Additional Information (images, videos, etc):
So what can happen is that some people have people in the same household that use the same PC. Sometimes it's lan parties, sometimes it's just shared PC's in a gaming basement. When a user gets a 2 day ban, it seems unfair that another user (who is on a totally different account) causes the original player to get a full ban. I know that most servers run a plugin that plants something in /userdata which acts as a family account share ban tool. That tool is great, but it perma bans players who dont deserve perma bans when other people on TOTALLY different accounts, also happen to join a server. Avoiding a 2 day ban is easy, and I should not be punished for a roomate playing on the same PC as I did to be banned forever.

RE: Ban Appeal - Verax - 07-30-2022
You state in your appeal that you do not remember what happened for the 2 day ban, but yet you claim to remember that your alleged friend played on your computer. Yet, you also claim that you had two different accounts? We are aware of what happens when people play on LAN parties, but you state that it was your friend getting on your PC with a different account. It doesn't make any sense for your friend to play the server right after you get banned, you have no evidence to prove this, and you make an appeal nearly a year later to explain that. If it was wrong at the time, why not let us know that? You don't take any accountability for the fact that you got caught using an alt account, and you take no responsibility for the origins of your 2 day ban.
