Unban Appeal for ScarsoLP_UNBAN
In-game Name: ScarsoLP
Server: Forums
Steam ID: 76561198092567307
The date you got banned: 01/01/20
Member of the team that banned you: I'd assume Wilco
Reason given for your ban: It's a little complicated so I am unsure what to put.
In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.: I originally appealed a ban on the Altis Life server, I can't remember the reason or original appeal, and Wilco found a mod on my ArmA 3 steam workshop that included textures that were previously used on RPUK. I had downloaded these textures from the official Altis Life forums back when Tonic hosted it and before it was taken down due to an admin account being accessed using stolen passwords. I have also since removed these from my workshop and deleted it from my computer. I was later forum restricted and after speaking to Wilco and was told it was because "the forum ban is because your current position elsewhere due to past problems we get from staff from various other UK servers" but this was lifted after I left the other server but a full forum ban was given to my account when I returned in the new year so I'd assume the forum ban is the same reason. (Sorry for the story but I wanted to include all the, summarised, events that lead to my ban.
Why should we unban you ?: Outside of the 1.6 bans, I am unaware of any other rules I have broken as I've never had a report against myself to my knowledge and have always tried my best to provide quality roleplay while on any Altis Life server. After the server, I did development on died my friends and I are looking for a new server to play on that aims to provide a similar level of roleplay our previous did and we believe RPUK is one of, if not, the last server in that area. I am willing to listen to feedback both on this appeal and through any other form to ensure I can be a better person both online and off. I believe I should be given another chance as I have taken actions in goodwill to remove the stolen content from any of my platforms after finding out it was stolen. I apologise for distributing it and should've thought twice about sharing the work of someone else online without checking who the original owner was and getting their permission. I believe this shows my willingness to do the right thing and that I have learnt from past mistakes to prevent anything like it happening again.
I also believe I have done a lot of good in my time as a developer for another server as I wrote scripts and systems to stop script kiddies and hackers alike. I was active in helping the server I was apart of to communicate known hackers to other servers via discords and private messages as well to ensure they'd only get caught on a single server before any further damage could be caused. I have worked to create features with the goal of providing an enjoyable experience for players within the ArmA 3 community and committed myself to share what I can via various different platforms to help aspiring developers learn and provide communities with the ability to provide high-quality development without the cost of time. I have tried to better the ArmA community, specifically Altis Life and strived to be a force for good within it. I'd also be willing to do tasks for RPUK as a sort of payment for distributing the stolen textures if that'd be something you'd want.
I am not here to harm RPUK or it's community. I want to be a positive part of that community and help in any way I can to make the community and server better. Be that through positive and constructive feedback through suggestions or by reporting issues I find on the forums. I want to leave he past behind me and look forward to having fun with friends on a community that cares. Something I saw when you did the community votes a year or more ago.
Just a note, would this unban include my original forum account and in-game? Or would another appeal be needed after? (Thought I should ask so I didn't have to later just in case)
