Sch1zoH Ban Appeal - 76561199052998528

[Sch1zoH]

I couldn't find the ban appeal format, so it'll be a little freeform.

Steam User: ShambolicalG0at
Steam ID: 76561199052998528
Banned For: Metagaming in discord group (Willard Underground Server)
Banned Amount: 3 Days
Banned By: Rabbithunter

I just wanna know what I was banned for specifically. I know it was metagaming between my group members in our Slums Server channels but I don't know what exact post caused a no warning 3 Day ban. This is also my first offense over all in Willard, so it'd be nice to know what specifically was metagaming so I can avoid it.

+ I did ask Rabit what specifically was so metagaming of me but he said to make a appeal to find out

While I'm not the banning admin, here's the evidence the team used to determine your behaviour on Discord warranted a ban.

All I can tell you now is that in the future, please keep any and all IC information purely to IC channels. I believe there were some instances of metagame via in-game PM's as well but I don't have those logs available to me right now, and they will probably be posted later.

Spoiler: Evidence

That 4th screenshot is invalid, no? It's literally a what if (just saying)
3rd screenshot I'm not even involved
2nd screenshot is me stating what you told me
1st screenshot is me stating that i am making a notice on the notice board forum (You might think the notice board thing is metagaming aka me doing a action that we haven't worked towards ICly... It's not, I posted the notice board post based on the sole fact our family has been helping slummers and rebels out this whole time and actually trying to help those in need way before this screenshot. We've thoroughly RPed supplying people with resources, weapons, etc. Whatever they need as long as they could pay us in return of what we have done for them. Or we generally just helped those in need out around. So that noticeboard post had well enough IC development in it for it to be made by me.

I can understand my involvement in the 1st screenshot but the rest?

And, a 3 day ban for my first offense is a little harsh too, no? I could've at least gotten a warning to not do it no more so I can actually learn from mistakes and make sure it is not done by me or my associates again and then if I continued it after the already given warning, then bans could be issued.

I'll also add one more thing, this isn't that big of a "metagaming" either. Not really the most of serious cases made before by players. So the punishment given is a little strange too. A simple warning could've resolved the situation much better than straight to a ban.

Hello! Sorry for the wait.

There was some minor meta gaming within your groups discord channels on the underground. We take meta gaming seriously, this being due to many RP events being ruined and people getting wrongfully PK'd in the past through metamaged information and the like. This being the case, and your ban only being three days in length, I will be denying this appeal. At the time of writing this, you don't have much more time to sit out and wait for the unban to occur.
