Steelshanks Banned, Im banned Options

[Steelshanks]

So can i get a little more insight into -why- exactly i got slapped with a perma ban.
I am sat bored in my office, catching up on all things SM, firing on chiv.

And find out i have been discord and server banned.

An -unnamed- SM member has told me someone was gunning for me for some time and that a couple people have been trash talking on me, I paid it no notice.
I have been told "there were several complaints against you for harassing players and admins". you can file an appeal on the server"

Exactly what was i banned for though?
Nobody i have asked seems to know.
I am certainly confused

Sorry if i upset someone feelings but i cant remember any moment for the life of me i have ever done anything to anyone, I haven't spoken to anyone except Aneki And Bucket for about a year anyway, I have been too busy buying my house and working my arse off during the Covid-fuckshow that is,
I have always spoken highly of SM community and have enjoyed being a part of it, I treat gaming and server communities just like i do a bar, If anyone has ever been upset by me in any way that would NEVER of been my intention.

Give a dog a bone

If nobody will, ill just see myself out and wont be back
If thats the case, it was fucking fine playing with SM and i wish you all the best in anything you do in the future.

So we received numerous complaints from independent people regarding Steelshanks' behaviour. Not some deep seated conspiracy from the clan as a whole, for example I don't know you nor really care whether you're banned or not, however given some of the discussions, screenshots in the internal clan forums it's right that you are banned.

If those involved directly wish to post evidence or screenshots publicly, I'll leave that up to them. However requests for such are typical to try and drag embarrassing things out in the open then nit-pick every sentence "oh but asking for nudes was obviously a joke- what an over reaction!" etc.,

Firstly: Hassling of people online is not acceptable in this day or age or any other irrespective of gender.

So that's that dealt with.

The other things that really strike me in this thread are the people who have no first hand knowledge of incidents vehemently jumping in on the defence. You muppets are like Lisa Bloom defending the character of Harvey Weinstein.
So instead you start calling the administration corrupt or essentially calling those people that have reported harassment liars. (always easy to shout that, but very rarely does anyone post about it without being prompted and let alone provide any form of proof other than shitposting)

So a handful of people like or are friends with a player and jump to their defence, with no actual knowledge of anything that's gone on. Bravo. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Regarding the bait of "perhaps I'll be banned next" - airplane you left following a wider ban of AofA clan. That temporary ban was put in place after your people trying to recruit on the SM server (after several warnings) and more importantly having members who were using hacks, while your "clan" persistently defended those players as being just good. Yes, your clan may have kicked them eventually (and we lifted the ban at that point) but is probably a moot point since the players in question got VAC or game banned anyway. Either way no, I'll not ban you.

@Airplane, Feanorfyndel, Fightdrug: Nice that you stand up for Steelshanks, appreciate he's popular and friendly in the server, but unfortunately you've put your allegiance in the wrong person there. While I am disappointed in the way you've thoughtlessly posted I'd not ban you in SM Chivalry or on the SM Chivalry2 servers when they come out (unless you break the rules of course).

But understand while you probably won't want to join our servers as you say, I don't really want people like you on them either.
Not banned, but also not welcome. Your posts here are just disappointing to be honest.

Finally I've leave this thread here, but closed. I'd like to think someone reading it would not think the clan has acted hastily or inappropriately. The end of the day we're here to play games and for our members to ensure they feel safe online in our servers, website, discord. In this respect I think we've provided our duty of care and if you disagree.. tough.
