Kexxy 0 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 In-game name: KexxySteamID (https://steamid.io/): STEAM_0:1:3543204Staff members in-game name: x12Staff members SteamID (https://garnetgaming.net/darkrp/bans) (/id (name): STEAM_0:0:53371658Date & Time of incident: February 23rd around 3:20 ASTTimezone: Atlantic Standard TimeBan Reason: DDOS ThretsHow long were you banned for?: 50 yearsProof of Ban: I got a clip of it What happened? (include any proof): I was looking for a raid target as Sat asked me if I wanted to go thief and look around for bases to raid and then I was thrown to the ban screenWhy should your ban be removed?: I know why I was banned. However it wasn't for DDOS threats. I'm aware I did something wrong and broke the rules (I think at least I'm a bit foggy on what the rules are as of right now.) About an hour before I was banned I made a joke, not a clever or funny one to most but to me it was. I said to someone in game "i know where you live in game and irl" under the assumption that they knew it was a joke. Apparently not. About 3 other people joined in on the conversation and claimed I was looking at people's personal information along with their Twitter. Two things I don't care about as they are a minor and it's Garry's Mod DarkRP. If I were to get a ban it would be for dox threat but I don't believe a ban was in order. I know that people are strict about internet safety but I think they were pushing it to the extreme. I do deserve a punishment for what was said but not a 50 year ban. I'd personally rather have a permanent warning on my account that can't be appealed. That and/or a 2 day ban. I would be perfectly fine with that, and to make it better I will personally apologize to them whenever I am able to log back onto the server. Link to comment

Yes you're right it is a messed up thing to say to a minor or to anyone I'm aware but I was under the impression that the person I said it to and others would recognize that it was a joke not an actual threat which is why I don't think a permanent ban is in order. Rather a temporary ban to show I learned my lesson. Which is not to make dumb jokes like that again Link to comment
X12_ 49 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 I just put the ban thru so I'll let Luke continue handling it. It seems like he already provided his evidence too. Link to comment
Luke124 3 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 I recognize that you were "making a joke" however that doesn't change the fact that the substance in which you were joking is taken very serious. There are other topics that aren't to be discussed such as racism, homophobia, DDoS, and personal information. There is other instances in which a joke was being made- here was a recent case of this: https://forums.garnetgaming.net/index.php?/topic/22437-my-ban-appeal/ In this post, the user made a joke about "having someones IP" and he was permanently banned. Why should your report be treated any different? The fact that it was said to a minor in this case doesn't really help. I'll let higher ups decide, however this is how I feel. Link to comment
DarkRP Management Team Merk 328 Posted February 23, 2023 DarkRP Management Team Share Posted February 23, 2023 DENIED After reviewing the provided evidence, it is evident that you alluded to knowing another player's physical location, regardless of intent; Any risk to player safety is not acceptable in our community. You are given the opportunity to read through all of the server rules upon joining the server, and every subsequent time you log on via the in game popup. Unfortunately, your ban will remain until the next ban reset or the passage of 50 years' time, whichever comes first. Feel free to rejoin the server then. @stretchyPlease lock & move. 3 Link to comment
