PIK Captain Olimar Ban Appeal #3

[Olimar 1]

In-game name: PIK Captain Olimar
SteamID (https://steamid.io/): STEAM_0:0:167060087
Staff members in-game name: Unknown, Banned by console?
Staff members SteamID (https://garnetgaming.net/darkrp/bans) (/id (name): Banned by console
Date & Time of incident: ~1030h AEST, was AFK at time of ban.
Timezone: AEST
Ban Reason:Exceeding warn limit?
How long were you banned for?:3 Days
Proof of Ban: Check logs, banned by console
What happened? (include any proof): Was sitting AFK in a base, came back to see "Banned for ____ minutes (3 days) for exceeding warn limit by console". I wasn't aware you could be banned for exceeding warn limit? Especially since I was AFK and was not given a chance to fix anything that might have been wrong? Only thing I can think of is that I might have forgotten keypads on my doors by accident, it was late at night and I just copied my base from my duper. Obviously I would've fixed this had I not been banned by console.
Why should your ban be removed?: Out of all of my bans I genuinely think this one is unfair, I don't even know what I did wrong and the ban hence has no purpose. If the staff member who banned me wants to explain what I did wrong (which they didn't do preventing me from actually fixing it) that would be great so I can not do it in future but I don't think the ban is fair. I only play this server certain times during the year and this ban duration is for the length of time I have left to play for a while so It's not very fair that I'm left in the dark.

 

What I am suggesting should have happened is that I be left in an admin sit room or something similar so that when I come back from being AFK I am able to fix what was wrong, or I just get kicked and NOT banned for exceeding the warn limit, as I believed to be usually commonplace?

Thanks.

Hi Olimar. I warned you for fail base while you were 'afk.' There's a clip of your base with no keypads or attached fading doors (https://streamable.com/dkr21n). There's a clip of me having frozen you and warning you after you came back and started collecting the printers without acknowledging us (https://streamable.com/6hb94n).  I felt a warn was justified, given your level, playtime, and the fact that you ignored two moderators in your base to collect your printers when there was clearly a sit going on.

I understand now, thank you for clarifying it.

I see now that there has been a huge misunderstanding, I recall what would have happened. As you can see in the clips, I didn't actually look up to see you guys because I had just come back from being AFK and was literally using my touchpad to collect my prints, I kept my view angle constant so I was able to just use my arrow keys and not have to have a mouse plugged in (I use a laptop). Also, I had my sound muted because when I'm AFK I have all my stuff unplugged and muted.

 

I agree that a warn is justified because it was a failbase, as I mentioned I had forgot to put keypads down, my bad.

 

But due to the unfortunate circumstances I don't know if the ban is justified, I just got unlucky with the timing.

Denied

After hearing from both sides, I am going to deny your appeal. This was essentially just a warn appeal because all the staff member did was give you a warn for failbase which is proven in the clips above. It is not the staff member's fault that you were one warn away from a ban. I recommend you try breaking less rules if you don't want to get banned. So the ban length will stay.

Your call man. I would've fixed the failbase had I not been in unfortunate circumstances.
