Ban Appeal Options

[MrSpooks]

Hi,

I was banned a few days ago from your 64 player server. I think I, and a few others TKd an admin. I was just goofing around at the end of a losing match. Never had a problem on the server before, never intentionally TKed an admin before. In fact this is the first time I've been banned on Chivalry and I've been playing for years.

I apologise if I pissed the guy off, and I won't do it again. But a warning would be have been nice before the insta-ban. Either way, I'm sorry and I'd like to play with you guys again.

Hope there isn't any hard feelings.

It doesn't make difference to your situation whether Darwin has seen it and/or ignores you. He has spoken his mind about the ban, and in case he chooses not to return to the topic, you know his decision was not to unban. And if he does return and responds by saying the ban will stay, that wont make any difference either. The only way the situation changes for you is when Darwin says the ban will be lifted, and you will know it because he will post it here.

I only ask because I'd like to know if he is active on the forums or not, if he is inactive then it explains the lack of response from him. Frankly, if he is active and is just ignoring the appeal then I'm worried that my appeal is not being fairly considered. Darwin gave no reason why he will not lift the ban, even Bucket said he didn't know what happened. There are people in this appeal forum that have committed much worse offences than I like abhorrent racism, and have even abused staff, and they have been given much more fleshed out and well worded responses, with screenshots and reasoning for their bans.

I've been given 'the ban stays' 'kthxbye', without any address to my sincere apology, or my pledge to make amends and try to rebuild trust. I've been polite, well-mannered and patient (This thread has been open for nearly a week now). I'd just like my appeal to be considered fairly with what I have said in mind. What is the point of punishment if not to reform people? If the ban isn't considered and lifted then I can't show that I am actually a nice person who can be trusted to play on SM servers without breaking the rules.
