Unban Appeal for William Antrim
In-game Name: william antrim
Server: GTA RP
Steam ID: 76561198058539262
Ban ID: g2.9
Reason given for your ban: item transfer
In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.: i was banned for transferring money from one player to another. The transfer initially was legal as i was giving money to someone for a legitimate purpose but the individual decided against completing the transaction and returned the money to me. However in my naivety i received the money back on the wrong character, not the person who sent the money in the first place. I should not have done this I realise it was wrong and naturally regret doing it. the other person did nothing wrong. i accept full responsibility for the actions.
Why should we unban you ?: I would like to be unbanned because i would like to attempt to repair my reputation within the community. I am an arsehole at times and i am incredibly blunt, to the point I am basically marmite. However I have found that in the 2 years or so I have been involved in this community in one form or another I have come to really enjoy my time here. Obviously I can say "honestly guys i am really sorry and i wont do it again" but lets be fair here, literally everyone says that and I imagine some even go as far as to believe themselves when they say it. I would rather skip over that part and just be brutally honest. I miss playing here. I have had a pretty stressful month or so recently with RL things going on in the world and it gave me a chance to pause and time to reflect. I was invited to help with some stuff behind the scenes a few nights ago and it made me realise how much i have missed some members of the community here (who shall also remain nameless for fear of ego inflation). i was able to help out in a small way, i wont go into details but basically it was nice to be involved in stuff again and be able to give some time back to the community. I hope to be able to continue to do this in the future but it would be kind of nice to also have some skin in the game I guess too. ive made a few mistakes in my time and ive broken some rules inadvertently i wont lie. I dont have a perfect record but I also dont intentionally set out to sabotage the community or any of its players. i am a bit blunt with people at times but thats a part of my personality and isnt something i can change easily.
I had a previous unban appeal turned down, i would like to take this opportunity to apologise to that person individually as well, i think we got our wires crossed a little bit and there were some words expressed and maybe taken the wrong way. i am not going to mention names but i would just like to say sorry for any offence caused, it was certainly not intended.
I am annoyed at myself that something like this got out of hand so quickly, its not normal for me and i pride myself on my integrity normally. i realise i could have easily rectified the mistake originally but i didnt do it and so i hold my hands up to the punishment i have received.
I am a firm believe that actions speak louder than words, Macbeth Act 2 Scene 1 if youre a Shakespeare fan. Words to the heat of deeds doth cold breath give.
To that end I will continue to try to help in some small ways behind the scenes if I am invited to do so as I genuinely really enjoyed that. I still lurk on the forums plenty reading the suggestions threads also as I think this is an integral part of growing the community and supporting its members to post some brilliant ideas.
If youre still reading at this point then thank you for sticking with me, its been a great cathartic experience and it has helped me to realise that all of the people who volunteer their time here deserve a massive round of applause as it really is a great community and one i am proud to call myself a part of.
Many thanks for your time
best regards
