Accepted Jumbi's Ban Appeal

[Jumbi-sama]

Steam Name: Jumbi-sama
SteamID: STEAM_0:1:123018325

Name of the Admin you were banned by: boots
How long is the ban for?: Perma
The reason you were banned?: Racism
Why do you wish to be unbanned?: I've been roleplaying on the server for a while and played characters of different backgrounds, but most prominently I've been playing with a character that is a Black Jamaican, I've enjoyed immersing myself into that role. In no way shape of form I am a racist, I do not have prejucide hate against Black Africans or of any race. I understand words hold weight to them and that they can be a hurtful means of tool, but it was not my intention to use them to hurt someone else. Let me say this again my character is a BLACK JAMAICAN, while it might be argued it wasn't okay for saying the n-word it was well in reason to bring out an immersive character as the one I am playing. Of course I understand if it is against the rules of TOS but I believe a perma ban is REALLY harsh sentence. If I have known sooner that I can't say that word even on a Black Jamaican character then I would not have said it in any circumstances, of course that does not make me immidietly not liable. So I would like to kindly ask to be given the opportunity to countinue playing on Willard as I have enjoyed it these past months.
Do you have any picture or video evidence to support your reason?:
I do not rememer which time it happend so no.
Were there any witnesses who can help in this appeal?: (List the steam and/or character names of them or tag them)
As I said, I do not know which time this occured so I do not know who would have been a witness.
