Name of the Admin you were banned by: Robert
How long is the ban for?: 3 months
The reason you were banned?: "Excessive Chip Looping" and "Malicious Group Behavior"
Why do you wish to be unbanned?:

I will firstly be talking about the Malicious Group Behavior section of this ban.

As I was doing this thing to gain chips, I have never even considered about telling it to the staff members as I thought it wasn't a rulebreak as I have seen "Surgical Kit" and "First Aid Kit" was being sold with stacks, and "Disinfected Bandages" and "Blood Bags" were being sold per piece, which I clearly thought this was a game-intended feature which I believe everybody could think the same way as I did, if I was asked by any staff how I gained the chips I would immediately tell them with no remorse or thinking about it as I think it was a simple grinding way by getting ingredients and crafting blood bags, charging the smuggler for using my skills. I have done nothing to keep this a secret from the staff, as I was ready to tell about this idea if anybody asked me about it from the staff team, I would like to apologize without knowing this was bannable, as I was an active player I would like to apologize to all staff members this may have caused problems to them and willing to stop doing anything related to this ever again, as I stopped doing this I think a week ago before I got banned?

I have never redistributed the chips to the group members or to anybody, I have only used the chips to buy a gun, ammo ingredients and medical ingredients which are vital for RebelRP, I have did quite the grinding as this wasn't the only way to gain materials and I have just believed that this was a game intended feature as I was doing this "exploit", I would like to sincerely apologize to the Server Council, Staff team, Developers and anyone this may have caused confusion or anger to.

I will admit to buying ingredients from the smuggler to craft blood bags to sell them, but I would like to say that I have never given anyone chips other than me buying an "OSITR, 4 OTAR magazines and 6 High Explosive Materials" from Resonance/Rislov when I first discovered this, the rest of the chips were simply used on more blood bags or ammo ingredients (alcohol, refined chemicals, syringes, cloth rags, plastic garbage and more stuff I can't quite remember.)

I am an active player and I would like to state that I am actually saddened of this mistake I have done, as I didn't know prior this was a bannable offence, which I wouldn't ever think about doing this if I knew this was bannable, I created my Rebel character "David Pernekos" exactly on August 8, I had no idea that such stuff were bannable as I have found out I could gain profit from this, I just began doing it while grinding in the second hand, this didn't prevent any roleplay happening as I kept roleplaying while I did this grind 1/9 of the day's playtime.

I will like to request a second chance and apologize to everybody checking this ban appeal, thank you.

EDIT: As I have stated above, I would like to specifically highlight a specific section of the ban, I never break rules meaningfully and I am mostly aware of the ruleset and keep onto it, if I had a single idea that this could be bannable I would refrain from doing this and tell the other members to not do it if I have ever seen or heard them doing so. I know that I was supposed to report this to the staff team but how would I know as we all thought this was a game intended feature, and regular players don't report everything they do to the staff members in their playtime, I hope you understand.

Do you have any picture or video evidence to support your reason?: N/A

Were there any witnesses who can help in this appeal?: I don't really know, the people in the group that knew about me just keeping the chips to myself.

I would like to formally request more consideration, as my original ban was a 1 month ban too. This ban will destroy my chances within the factions I have applied to.

And I still believe that this ban was exaggerated, as this could be solved with a warning due to the stuff I have stated on the appeal message. I will be awaiting more replies, thank you.
 
Hello @Curbalas

I will be taking care of your Ban Appeal. First of all, the Staff Team has seen your Ban Appeal, and we have agreed to ACCEPT your Appeal. Your Ban is going to be turned into a Warning instead,
