In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.
I was banned as I accidentally crashed my blue and white hummingbird into the side of a Blackfish which was landing at the laundry redzone.
I was flying my Hummingbird to Laundry to get in on the action and have some fun with PVP. While flying over to laundry where the incident occurred I was receiving a call on discord so I tabbed out of the game to accept the call. When I tabbed back into the game I had lost a fair amount of attitude and that a blackfish had appeared directly in front of me which wasn't there when I tabbed out.
I then tried to take evasive manoeuvres but I was travelling too fast and ended up ramming into the side of it exploding both my Heli and the blackfish. After the collision I immediately closed the game (rage quit) as due to the mistake I lost 600k worth in military gear and weapons as well as having no Heli until the next restart which I was pissed off about.
After taking a second to cool down I loaded back into arma where I changed my in game name to try and avoid the situation and carry on playing the game like normal. I know that was the wrong thing to do but I wasn't really thinking properly about it as if I recall this incident occurred around 01:00am GMT.
When I spawned back in and got picked up by an admin I talked with him about the situation and admitted that I was in the wrong and was willing to provide comp to anyone that may of lost gear. I didn't know who I killed during the incident as I rage quitted immediately.
I fully understand that the way I went about the aftermath of the incident was not handled correctly and that I should not have rage quitted out of impulse in the first place and for that I am truly sorry.
Why should we unban you ?
I am a long serving member of this community and have been around for a fair few years of the island. I regularly try and help new players where I can by helping them get set up and teach them how to do first runs etc. I understand that I have a ban history that has been spread out over my career on the server but I always learn from my mistakes and take them as experience in how I can better myself in the community.
I understand that the action taking against me was just for the incident but that I would be truly saddened if I was not able to return back to the island in the future.
Thank you for your time.
