In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.
1.6 - I was banned as I was in a room called "Banning Room" in the private OG discord server after a couple of OG members had just been banned for attempting to mass RDM. I knew this was going to happen though.
What have you been upto in the last 6 months+ ?
In the last 6 months I've dedicated most of my time to trying to become a pro FIFA player while doing A-Levels on the side. I am doing Psychology, Politics and Economics in 6th form. On Wednesday I went to Bournemouth to compete in the FIFA ePremier League to become Bournemouth's representative at the ePL Live Finals in London next month. I got to the final and was unfortunately beaten by a better player than me. This is still one of my main focuses as I believe this is still possible (becoming a pro) while at the same time, I know I need to start working more on my A-Levels. I've also been enjoying watching my beloved Leeds do well in the Championship
Why do you want to return ?
I joined the server in roughly April 2017 I believe and up until may 2018 I only had 1 warning for commenting on a report which didn’t involve me (it did but I was a cop, playing as rebel at the time so I accepted the warning to not get kicked out of cops). In may, I stupidly got a warning for commenting “free someone” and I can’t remember who it was but it was very unnecessary and pointless. When all the 183 kids came along and I joined them, I now realise that was the biggest mistake of my time here on rpuk. I was brainwashed due to my naivety into thinking I didn’t care about the server and if i got banned I would just join another community. This changed my attitude completely as I trusted my own want for joining another community. Little did I know, all these communities were a pile of shit where staff abuse their powers, people are too gung-ho, people can do what they want, little to no roleplay takes place. This is literally the opposite of rpuk. None of this actually appealed to me hence why I’ve not touched arma since my ban. The whole point of what I’m trying to get across is that it was only when 183 came along that my attitude and behaviour on the server changed, in the previous 18 months I’d not broken any major rules. I was here to roleplay and have fun with other people but that was changed by a certain group of individuals who have now been ridiculed by yourself and with good reason. I no longer communicate with any of them and I have realised they are idiots. I will never see the appeal in mass rdming, coming on the server on a free account, chatting shit on other forums. By no means am I attempting to justify my ban, but it has made me realise how desperate I am to return so I thank you for that in a weird sort of way. During my time here I have had many good roleplay experiences. I’ve done rp HMs, RBAs and too many gas stations to count. I’ve attended in game roleplay events and had fun but as I’ve already said a million times (I’m sure this is getting repetitive and boring now) this all changed when 183 came along and if I was unbanned I know to stay away from people like that at all costs. It will ruin my time on the server and everyone else around me.
Why should we unban you ?
I really don't know what else I can say, everything I've previously said has been genuine yet clearly not taken seriously. I get it, though. You've heard all this before only for people to blow it, something which I did last time. I've already explained why I think this happened. Obviously, I am here once again because of a lack of trust. I know for a fact that the only way I'll get unbanned is if there is a way of finding that trust. Okay, so you've been proven right before when you've given people more chances than maybe they warrant, and then within the month they're banned again. I don't know how to prove that won't happen with me but all I can do is promise I suppose. I've literally stated time and time again I don't want a gun, and I want to return to roleplay, something which I was able to competently do for 16 months before 183. In my last appeal I said I wanted to set up my own Lawyer Firm thus being a roleplay gang which doesn't involve any shooty shooty rubbish. I still stand by that.
As I've mentioned, there is a lack of trust, a lack of trust because of my 2 bans in quick succession. Fine. I get it. That said I put both of these bans down to the same error of judgement I made by joining 183. However, there are people on the server today, such as Jordan Naylor, and UKJC who have been banned time and time again for multiple different reasons and are still here. Obviously it's your decision but how can you trust someone again after being banned so many times? This is what I am failing to grasp, why I am not being given a final chance, any tiny rulebreak and I'm gone forever yet they're roaming around the server after collectively, probably tens of bans.
There's a part of me that thinks that the denial of both of my bans was an attempt to push me to breaking point, push me to write something stupid and disgusting on the forums to prove to you that I am one of those "immature kids" you often refer to. I've told you before and I'll say it again, this won't happen, that is not me. I feel as though because of what I was banned for I've been received by staff and management in the complete wrong way.
The whole point in me writing yet another ban appeal is because I am so desperate to return. Strauss and Pr0xity I'm sure will both tell you I've been in almost every minute of their streams the last few days. If you see me join an edgy gang with "the wrong crowd", ban me even if I've not broken rules. It simply will not happen. The only way for me to prove this is obviously to be unbanned and if you feel you need to "which I'm gathering you would" put me under strict restrictions fine, I'm more than happy to follow them, I just want 1 last chance, you've given it before and it's paid dividends and there are other times where you were shown that you should have never unbanned that person in the first place. I have changed and I want to be able to show that.
EDIT: "This is what I am failing to grasp, why I am not being given a final chance, any tiny rulebreak and I'm gone forever yet they're roaming around the server after collectively, probably tens of bans." Read this back and I don't mean to say what I did was a tiny rule break. I meant that if I was to be unbanned, any tiny rulebreak and I'd happily be banned forever after being given that 1 chance. Read it back and sounded wrong.
