Unban Request
Steam Name: anonymous495
Name of which you were banned: Galloway
Date when you were banned: 10/15/14
Action leading to ban: I was a sapper on my favorite map, the one with the sandy buildings in the middle of an island, some of which have planks on them so you can climb around. I was enjoying a bit of peaceful building, making bridges to connect all the rooftops together. Throughout all this, I was shot at by a group of players. Clearly, that isn't a problem, but one of them was an admin. Well, when I finally completed my bridge to connect my rooftop to their rooftop, the admin slayed me. Yes, with admin powers. He then typed "hahahaha!" in chat. Well, I got angry at the abuse, and called him out for it. I typed, "asshole" in chat, followed by "badmin" and "abuse". I then typed in "will report". The admin responded by saying "Don't spam planks" and banned me. I was very clearly not spamming, I was careful to destroy any planks that were not actively being used as bridges. I was banned before I could take any screenshots, and I couldn't even take down the name of the admin that banned me.
Why should you be unbanned: I was banned for "spamming planks" which I clearly was not doing, and the admin was abusing his powers to an absurd degree.
PlayerID: I don't know
Where do I begin with this one..... I had a feeling you would do this.
1. I did not shoot you, I came on and saw 1000 sapper bridges floating in the sky so I slayed you as this is an obvious rule. I then said "Ah ah ah" in a scolding manner. This was in no way abuse and you continued to swear at me at which point I said "What was that you said" This should have been your que to stop talking and take the slay that you had earned. Instead you continued to swear at me and give lashback so I gave you a temporary ban. Sapper bridges and such are against the rules and if you have played sapper before you should know this. You will be unbanned in an hour. Your failure to calm down is what led to your temp ban. I'm even more appalled by the fact you stretched the truth to try and have my powers revoked. I have admin on sevral NW servers and not one have I abused my powers on. Take this as a warning, Goodnight.
1. That's how bridges are built. You build a bunch of large chevau-de-che(?)'s, put a plank over them, and then destroy them. I had been doing this for the entire time I was on the server, and I have done this dozens of times on the server before. It was only when I reached the rooftop with the other players on it that I was slayed.
2. If you said "ah ah ah" and not "ha ha ha" I apologize for making that mistake.
3. I apologize for my remarks if you really thought you were administering justice. But I swore at you once, and you didn't ban me afterwards. People had been swearing at each other all night on this server, and nobody got a reprimand. It was only when I declared my intent to report you that I was banned.
4. I've never heard of sapper bridges being forbidden. Could you give me a citation for that? I haven't read it in the forums or the in-game rules.
5. I was not trying to get your powers revoked, I just wanted to be able to play on my favorite server again. I didn't even mention your name, dude.
And to anyone else reading this, I think you can draw your own conclusions. Take into account, however, that somehow he knew that I would come to the forums to report this incident. Had he not abused his powers, he would have no reason to think that, and even less reason to leave the server to respond to my request to be unbanned.
