Admin who issued the ban : Darth
Additional information: no vids or screenshots.
Situation: I am not here to apologise, as I believe this ban was simply a misunderstanding. TLDR is I was not trying to antagonise an admin or being racist, and I will refrain from repeating the word negro but I would like to explain.

I am not racist, I don't intend to make anyone feel uncomfortable. Admin told me to not say anything racist, I told him that I hadn't unless you count that (before he had joined) I had used the word negro, but that it was Portuguese for black.
In Portuguese, negro means dark or black, and is the correct way to describe someone who is black or brown, without any negative or derogatory implications. In English you say black, but in Portuguese to say "preto" is generally considered
wrong and even rude. I was not "testing the admins", because I like the SM server (although recently they have been laggy) and don't want to be banned.

From what I understand about admins and bans, it is Darths decision so this is to you: It is important to know that culture and language vary a lot. There is no word in Portuguese for "nigger". Negro is nothing to do with that hateful word.

I understand the misunderstanding and will not say negro again on your wonderful server smile.gif

--Thank you brother, Rico

PS. I was banned another time quite a few years ago, I was being a dumb kid, have since grown up.

Some information about the ban:

You were banned for 55 hours and 30 minutes and your ban will expire on 2021-04-07 at 18:48 GMT.

I checked the ban history and I found one earlier automatic (and permanent) ban from 2018-04-25. It was removed a day or 2 later. I didn't find a previous ban appeal so I can only guess what happened.

P.S. I didn't see your "P.S." initially. I need new glasses... smile.gif
