In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.
1.6 community ban. I was banned for a group of situations that I was involved with in one way or another that were harmful to this community and so I was removed to prevent this from repeating. I will explain the scenarios in detail below:
Generally being a part of Bikini Bottom: I joined bikini bottom at the same time that they had all left the police, I already knew a couple of them, so I decided to play with the gang for an evening. I enjoyed playing in the gang and I was asked if I wanted to join by the leaders, and I agreed although I had no intention to join them before. After about a week I began to notice certain members being toxic and giving poor rp with a poor in-game attitude. I still held myself to a good standard of RP however I failed to report any toxicity. Towards the end of Bikini Bottom, I talked to staff a few times when asking for me and another member to help try and keep the gang from getting worse, I was also told a few of us would be better off making our own gang without some of the more toxic players (the bikini bottom leaders mainly). I didn’t listen to staff’s advice and now realise that if I had, maybe I wouldn’t need to be writing this appeal. About a week after my chat with staff Bikini Bottom received its blanket ban warning, unfortunately in response to this the leaders decided to disband the gang to avoid punishment, and this led to warnings for poor rp being given out to all current members.
Being a part of a new toxic racist community: Shortly after Bikini Bottom disbanded, I was asked to take a position in the medics of a new community by a friend I had known from my old gang exposure quite a while ago. I accepted but very quickly realised it was jus the same group of people. The server and teamspeak both contained large amounts of stolen RPUK stuff. I never stole or copied anything from RPUK and I never would do that. Members of bikini bottom and now this new server begun making racist videos that i was not involved in 1 bit and find the videos disgusting and childish. Soon after this I left the community as i do not wish to be associated with any of the racist trolls there.
Teamspeak Trolling/Impersonation: On the 23rd or 24th December. Mell0 went on the RPUK teamspeak posing as Seth and began jumping around channels and messaging people to get given seth’s teamspeak tags. Me and LewisG were in a channel with him on another teamspeak server and he told us both to come into the RPUK teamspeak and troll with him. We both joined the lobby and I chose to not troll and stayed in the lobby. I did however change my name to S E T H, this was very immature of me and I want to apologise to Seth, and the staff team that had to waste time banning me (I also want to add that although I understand how bad this looked I considered Seth a friend at the time, I played with him a few days before the incident for a few hours convincing the officers that I was james bond and it got to the point that I was patrolling around with them, so I had zero malicious intentions). After this situation I completely removed myself from everyone I used to play with and played other games and gamemodes mainly with IRL mates.
That is why I believe I have been banned, if there are any other reasons I have not left them out intentionally and will explain fully.
What have you been upto in the last 6 months+ ?
It has not yet been six months, Since I was banned I have slowly stopped playing pc games as much and am focusing on my real life a bit more. I have only really been playing pc games with IRL friends. I did try to play on another server but after a few days I realised it was not for me. I still have friends on rpuk and honestly, I am missing the community.
Why do you want to return ?
I have been a member of the community from over a year and have loved almost every second of it, it beats all of the other servers out there easily simply because of how great the community is and I was proud to feel like I was a part of that. I have some friends still on rpuk and would love to be able to play with them again, for some people rpuk was the only way I would communicate with them and I would love to be able to do this again. I want to be able to have a fresh start in the community, I would like to maybe join a faction and work my way up the ranks, proving to the community, staff team and myself that I do belong in this community.
Why should we unban you ?
Firstly, I truly believe that before I got involved with the group of toxic banned members I was an asset to the community. I always made sure my roleplay was of the highest quality no matter the situation or how I was feeling and was very happy with the way I conducted myself in-game. I also believe that I surrounded myself with other people that were good for the community, unfortunately I slowly began to get more and more involved with people who wouldn’t be considered anywhere close to ‘good’ and I am extremely disappointed for allowing myself to do this. I want to give a huge apology to anyone who I have affected with my stupid actions, the staff team for wasting their own personal time having to watch what I was doing and ban me, and now having to deal with my appeal and I am grateful that you are doing this. If I were to be unbanned I would keep my reputation squeaky clean and not even consider any action that would cause any amount of harm to the community, or anyone in it.
I believe that my history on rpuk would be considered good up until the end, I was not involved with any toxicity until the end. I began playing in late 2017 and joined the original IB, a few people in that gang have now chosen the wrong path but I believe at the time the gang was good at keeping RP quality high and rulebreaking to a minimum. After IB disbanded I quickly joined Strix’s new gang called The lost brotherhood. This gang was extremely RP focused but unfortunately didn’t last very long due to a lot of us taking breaks from arma. After I came back from my break, me and some friends made a new gang called Exposure, we roleplayed as British operatives who turned to help the Russians after capture. I kept a high quality of members in the gang and with a good balance of roleplay and gunfights I would say that Exposure was probably my favourite time I ever had on rpuk. After Exposure When strix came back to Arma, me strix and a few others remade IB, I was second in command for most of this and was very happy with how things were going, unfortunately many members began leaving and eventually I did too. I joined Aconitum, which could have been the start of my downward-spiral. It was not a toxic gang but leaned towards gunfights over RP, it didn’t last long so I joined vanity. Vanity was a good gang to be a part of, with some long-standing members of the community that kept their standards high at the time and I enjoyed the RP much more than the constant gunfights of aconitum. After this I had a short run in the Poseidon cartel which ended up in a blacklist for playing rebel multiple times, the first was the initial evening with bikini bottom, and that leads me to now.
To avoid ever getting myself in a similar situation again I will be much more careful with who I play and associate myself with. And if I ever sense any sort of toxicity from anyone I will immediately fully report it to the staff team. This is my first ban on rpuk (apart from a mistaken ban a while ago, but I was quickly unbanned) and I hope it will be my only one. It has acted as a wakeup call, that I should choose my friends more carefully and act more maturely myself.
I am asking for a final chance to show that I belong in this community as I truly believe I do have a place here and I want to make a final apology to anyone affected by my stupid actions in any way: I am sorry that I have harmed you experience, and I assure you that it wont happen again.
And also the staff team for wasting time on me, and giving me valuable advice that I ignored for the sake of some toxic individuals. If given the chance, you will never have to waste a second on me, and any help you give me I will follow fully.
