Your SteamID : STEAM_0:0:17361042
Your Nickname : 0chena, formerly: your black papa #PRO-SLAVERY, black man
Reason why you should be unbanned :
I was first kicked without warning and without given reason (admin may have said something, but I didn't hear it because its a gungame server and people are always shooting), so I rejoined the server asking for the reason why I got kicked. He then told me to change my name, and I changed it to black man, and 3 seconds later I was permanently banned. I'm still not sure what the reason behind my ban was, except for ignoring an admin's wishes, even though through I followed his instructions as clear as I could. I just recently checked your server's motd and I saw no racism. I am now aware that my ban was for racism, but I meant no racist intent, and wouldn't have used those aliases if I had known that it was against the rules. I'm sorry for my misunderstood humor to be accounted for as racism. I've changed my name username now to 0chena, I really enjoy playing on your servers and I hope you consider appeaing my ban. |

I can't remember the last time racism of any form was considered humorous. I'm sure the ban itself can be lightened by someone, but a for next time, show a little maturity, hmm? We're adults, leave that sorta "humour" to high schoolers.
Pro Tip: If somewhere in your head it clicks that your name/spray MIGHT be offensive to someone... don't use it.

I wasn't aware that the username "black man" could be considered anymore offensive than "white man". I didn't even receive a warning prior or after my ban.
Also, I reviewed the source bans. Anything other than hacking does not usually warrant a permanent ban, so why was mine justified?

You must have misread my post, my username was not intended to be racist. It was misunderstood humour, and if it had offended anyone, I am sorry. I just believe this whole situation was miscommunication between the admin and I. |

I take offense to that batty >.> lol anyawys, as batty has informed you no racism of any kind is really tolerated on this server and not in many places so o.O even if unintended the interpretations are different per person so they had to judge for the over-all public. |

Ok, for the last time. Non members, please refrain from commenting on open ban appeals. Unless you are directly involved, there is no need. Please keep this in mind in the future. THank you!
*ban length changed to 5 days. This is your first, and only warning. Any further infactions of server rules will result in a perma ban**
