I also do not appreciate you attempting to blame some things on Tictac, who as far as I know has nothing to do with this ban.
Tictac kicked the beastiality/underage sprayer.
I'd also like to request you to not lie in your ban appeal thread; While I understand you may be stating a week is harsh, lying will just make it look worse on you. You have been warned previous, there is a post that even states that you have been warned, kicked, and muted, before this incident.
Thorax, Otterfiend, Raunky, Christovski, and I, have all stated we have warned you in the past. And not only do I say that Admin Chat warnings were given, I believe vocal warnings over microphone were given as well.
Edit: If you'd like to take up an admin abuse thread, please provide evidence as well. As far as I can tell, Tictac/Thorax has not kicked anyone at random, nor has he been verbally abusing players. It's possible he was making joking comments torwards me, though. That is common.
Hi Death. Thanks for the prompt reply. I can honestly state that I have not lied once in this entire exchange. As I say, to my knowledge I have not been kicked or gagged from ConjointGaming Zombie Master servers. I suppose it is possible that this is not the case (as you say there is some information which states otherwise), but if that is so I really am at a loss to explain that as I cannot honestly recall any such incidents. I'm no fool and I realize how fruitless it would be to lie to administrators!
Raunky claims that a warning was given in this particular case (i.e. right before I was banned), which I hope you will agree is 100% false. A warning may have been given more than three days prior to my banning, as you state (which I dispute), but no warnings were given in this case. I think you'll agree that Raunky is mistaken about this, no?
I also think Christovski and perhaps other administrators are mistaken about my identity. Many seem to be claiming that it was I that sprayed something pornographic, which is simply not the case.
So everyone reading and responding to this is clear: I was banned for jokingly suggesting that spraying pornography in an online game isn't such a big deal. I have created this ban appeal thread simply because I do not feel, given the context that I and others have provided in this thread, that an instantaneous ban for an entire week is proportional. Let me know what you think, and have a nice day.
Just want to say, I was there, Fratricide was given warnings, ignored them, and was banned.
He was also warned using the admin chat functions, which don't show up in console logs.
Hi Raunky. I don't remember seeing you ingame at the time that I was banned. I also will say that your claims are a complete fabrication, and even Death will agree (I would hope) that admin chat functions were not used to warn me in this instance. Have a nice day.
I hop between a lot of different names in ZM.
I'm not lying to try to get you banned because I don't like you, I don't have anything personal against you. I'm just telling everyone what I recalled happened.
Hi Raunky. So, you maintain that at around 3:10 PM EST on 6/17, you witnessed an admin give some sort of warning (be it through mic or admin text, etc.) towards a user named "Fratricide" concerning his "attitude"? I just want to make sure we're on the same page here.
It was my understanding that you sprayed the spray in question, if you were still giving the admins a hard time I think you deserve a time out, but I don't know what the appropriate duration would be, at least a day or three because this has happened before.
In the past you have been muted for spamming sound clips through voice chat (HLSS, HLDJ, or whatever) and you responded by berating the admin for muting you, another time you were arguing against the rules/admin for punishing someone (may have been you or another I forget the full details) but you have been anti-rules in my experience
You have also said some things in your ban appeal here, in your first few posts, that I believe are either lies or ignorance (for example that you got no warnings)
So you have not exactly been on your best behavior, and you have been punished for it. I believe you deserve a ban, however I am not 100% sure you deserve a full week since I wasn't there when you were banned, so I can't make that judgement. I also do not appreciate you attempting to blame some things on Tictac, who as far as I know has nothing to do with this ban.
Hi Christovski. Thanks for the prompt reply. I think you may have my identity confused with another player(s). For example, I have never sprayed anything pornographic. My one week ban was ostensibly for jokingly suggesting that the spraying of something pornographic isn't such a huge deal. Of course at the time I did not realize that the spray in question was of beastiality!
As for the claims that I have lied in this thread: my overarching point here is that to my knowledge I was not given any warnings concerning my "attitude" towards the admins. Moreover, even if I were given such a warning, as Death claims, that warning would have been given over three days prior to my ban. Ostensibly, I was banned instantaneously for making two innocuous comments that rubbed Death the wrong way. As I've said before, I personally apologize to Death for any offense he may have taken at these statements; I certainly did not intend for them to incite trouble or cause problems for any members of the staff at ConjointGaming.
As I have said before, I will be the first to admit that I can be abrasive at times (but who can't, really?)! However, I think given the context that I and others have provided in this thread concerning my ban, a week is not really proportionate to what (if anything) I "did". Let me know what you think, and have a nice day.
Thanks,
Fratricide
