Unban Appeal - Jay Small - GTA RP

[Jay Small]

Server: GTA RP
Character Name: Jay Small
Steam ID: 76561199011756624
Ban ID (just the numbers): 190442
Ban Reason: C1.2 Do not express discriminatory or otherwise offensive views. This is no place for racism, religious hatred, ageism, sexism, homophobia, gender or disability discrimination.
Why do you think you were banned: i was banned for using a word that sounds similar to another word
Why should we unban you: Hi Staff

Hope you are all well


As the 6 month mark of my banning has approached, it has allowed me plenty of time to reflect upon what led to me being in this situation.

I never ever meant to say anything in a derogatory manner, but I can of course absolutely see why it could be perceived this way, and i fully understand why i have been given the punishment and cooldown that i have received, but i can sit here and confidently say that this would not happen again.

i had went through 2 years in this community not even receiving a warning, and i must admit my attitude did start to slip towards this ban and picked up a few warnings before this and should have really brushed up back to standards so again i also apologise for that.

As Drex said before i have always maintained respectful towards staff, i do appreciate all the efforts of every staff member for making this community what it is, if i could be honest i do feel this was very idiotic and out of character for me and can only stress my apologies once again

If you could please review my case and understand that I am truly sorry for how my words caused offence, I have learnt a lot from this situation and do not ever wish to be in the same one again. I have the utmost respect for the position you have to uphold and the standards you have to maintain, and I am so massively apologetic for causing you any problems in doing this.


thank you for taking your time in reading my appeal.
Please confirm that you have read the unban appeal process and rules: Yes

Hello @Jay Small .

and i must admit my attitude did start to slip towards this ban and picked up a few warnings

Why is this? I can see that you did have a good span of time on the server with no issues, then in late 2024 you began to draw some significant attention from the staff team with respect to your behaviour. How do we know you will not return to this behaviour should you return?

I never ever meant to say anything in a derogatory manner, but I can of course absolutely see why it could be perceived this way,

What did you mean then? From what I can read - what you were doing was essentially trying to say the N-word without actually saying it. How could you say this in any way that isn't derogatory?

Hi Bonzi

Thank you for your response

How do we know you will not return to this behaviour should you return

Because although I made a seriously stupid mistake I really enjoy what the whole staff team have created with this server and continue to do making sure it’s a safe community for everyone to have fun and create immersive story lines, I will admit my attitude slipped and even my roleplay slipped but having 6 months away has really opened my eyes and to why i would really appreciate another chance in this community.

From what I can read - what you were doing was essentially trying to say the N-word without actually saying it. How could you say this in any way that isn't derogatory?

I’m not saying it’s not derogatory it very much is, but it was never said with malicious intent or in anger towards anyone in particular it was a very idiotic and stupid thing of me to do so all I can do is ask for forgiveness and extend my apologies once again and I can assure you this will never happen again.

Thank you for taking your time over this bank holiday weekend in replying to me.

It's not the first time you've exerted this behaviour is it?

You've had plenty of warning to which you ended up with this ban.
8 Warnings in 2024 and this ban.

What are your plans if you return?
Tell me about what your long term goals are for your characters.

Hi Psiana


Hope you are well and thank you for your response

I agree i had plenty of warnings in 2024 and i should have learnt from them like previously i had 1 ban when i first joined the server but then had a 2 year stint with nothing at all, being away for 6 - 7 months has really opened my eyes towards my behaviours and actions.

like i mentioned i feel my roleplay even slipped but i love being apart of this community and being involved in serious roleplay, there isn't another server that compares in my opinion.

What are your plans if you return?

if im given another chance i will prove to you and the staff team im here for the right reasons to roleplay and create immersive story lines for all people i come into contact with.

Tell me about what your long term goals are for your characters.

My long term goals for my character is to rebuild connections i had with my main character as i could imagine a lot has probably changed since I've been gone

i would maybe even like to explore a legal route possibly NHS/Hunter or G6 but id have to look into them a little bit more.

i would like to take this chance to apologise one more time for my actions and can fully assure you that something like this will never happen again it was a really big mistake on my part and not a true reflection of myself.


Thank you for your time

Hello @Jay Small .

if im given another chance i will prove to you and the staff team im here for the right reasons to roleplay and create immersive story lines for all people i come into contact with.

I'm happy to provide you with another chance today.

However, due to your extensive list of warnings - you will not be granted the same leniency you once had with respect to skirting the rules. It is your responsibility to know and understand these rules fully, and abide by them during gameplay. If you are banned for whatever reason within the next two months, you will be placed back on a permanent ban.
