First off scripting to unscramble words in a gmod server is wild asf and you're lucky for the short ban tbh. Second what is this post its general discussions so was this a suggestion more or less? And third this would completely ruin the whole thing as then next rounds that those words are used mfs just sniping because they saw it pop up already before the system works and isn't broken so why change it?

UNDER REVIEW Thank you for your appeal. Please allow up to 24-48 hours for a response from a member of the Operator Division. As well as allowing a reasonable timeframe to gather the facts pertaining to your ban. Please note, bans will only be appealed if they are of a false nature, incorrect reasoning, and in some cases mishandling of sit/report/ban. DENIED After careful review of your appeal and the events pertaining/leading up to your ban. We regretfully inform you that your request for an appeal of your ban has been denied at this time. This is mostly but may not be limited to the following reasons: People have been banned for the exact same reason and got a longer sentence. Using common sense you could’ve figured it out that it wouldn’t be allowed you are using a system meant to be a fun way to earn money, as a way to grind allowing no other players to have a chance to type the word out which ruins the whole point of having it. Thank you for attempting an appeal, as well as the effort you have put into your appeal. -

I must admit that I misrepresented my intentions behind my reasons for wanting the solutions list, as it would be the perfect dictionary list, but there truly are some word scrambles that I have no idea what they are and manual anagram solvers have no clue what they are. -

In-game name: GeorgeologistSteamID (https://steamid.io/): STEAM_0:0:80230016Staff members in-game name: MrMurkasaurus1Staff members SteamID (https://garnetgaming.net/darkrp/bans) (/id (name): STEAM_0:0:189735324Date & Time of incident: 06/26/2026 @ ~1530Timezone: CDTBan Reason: Scripting (auto word) | MurkHow long were you banned for?: 1 yearWhat happened? (include any proof): Hello, Let me preface this, I was banned for scripting and the punishment on the D3A for scripting is a permanent ban. I appreciate the fact that I was only given 1 year, I am being shown leniency based on the D3A that I am grateful for. I understand the gravitas of this situation and how my appeal provides evidence against me which could lead to a permanent ban. However, it is my objective to show you that what I did does not qualify as scripting based on previous cases of scripting bans. Prior to embarking on creating a tool that solves the word unscramble, I read all the rules to confirm an automation tool like a game bot or solver bot was not explicitly prohibited like in games such as Runescape or WoW. The only place I found relevance to my situation was the D3A mentioning scripting. The google definition of scripting essentially includes the process of writing tasks to automate repetitive tasks, but based on my research and experience, I felt like Garnet Gaming intended a more specific and relevant definition, client-sided lua script execution. Link to a picture of a previous scripting ban appeal verdict. Client-sided lua script execution is disabled by the server because game cheats or "hacks" use internal lua scripts to unfairly access data like player location to allow aimbot or ESP/wallhack. My tool is completely external written in python and does not inject anything into the game process such as a DLL and only "accesses" optical game data that is available to everyone. My tool also has a similar sized dictionary of 50,000 words compared to typical adults which have 42,000 words based on this study. The main unfair advantage that my tool provides compared to an intelligent adult would be typing speed. Once case of a permitted automation tool or "script" that also provides the advantage of typing speed is Checkered Pangolin's Casino Kit, it is an external program written in C# that allowed players to automatically run a casino with some player input, the dealer would press a hotkey to show whether the player hit or stood and the program automatically typed the result into the game chat. I understand my argument is highly pedantic and is highly dependent on opinion, but the DarkRP Server Rules and GarnetGaming Community Guidelines make no mention of player run bots or automation tools and the previous bans for scripting were typically for people injecting client-side lua scripts which is bypassing essentially an anti-cheat and is expressly disallowed by the server config. There may be a conventional wisdom known to staff that what I did was obviously against the rules but I am ignorant to this. It was my intention to create an automation tool or player bot that automatically solved and entered in the word unscramble. However, it was not my intention to break the server rules. I understand that my bot was unfair to other players due to the speed of answering, but my intention was to create more of a "cheeky" advantage that was not technically against the rules unlike RDM between friends which is expressly against the rules yet often overlooked. Lastly, I am willing to accept my ban if my punishment deemed as just, I would also like rules to be added to the DarkRP Server Rules that explicitly states what is not permitted around scripting. I will be able to play again another day and I will see you all again in a year. I am willing to show the staff the source code and explain how my automation tool works in as much detail as I can, in private, to prevent the proliferation of this bot considering that I was banned for this. -

I mean, if you're just going to use a script to unscramble the word, then it kinda defeats the purpose of this post, no?
