"[Jay] Tupinambis - Discord ban for "Telling people to leave the discord"
Posted: Fri May 01, 2020 9:05 am
BYOND account and character name: Tupina#1837
Banning admin: Jay/Bhijn
Ban type/duration (where you are banned from and for how long): Discord/Indefinite
Ban reason: "they were straight-up telling people to leave the discord, so they were banned."
Your side of the story: After a very long time being on the server, being a contributor, and at one point a moderator, my frustrations ended up boiling over. That is the point at which I ranted about all my frustrations and eventually decided to leave. Within this rant I did make the statement that "The Solution is to play on [Different SS13 Server] and abandon ship." Now, I did indeed leave and haven't been on the discord since the middle of February. When I decided to return to it today I discovered I was banned. At no point was I ever notified of the ban and at no point was I ever aware of it. Talking to staff on the actual server, neither MrJWhit nor Kevinz000 was aware of the ban until I brought it up and they dug into it.
The way I said it and the fact that I specifically mentioned [Different SS13 Server] was just toxic on my part, but I genuinely don't think silently permabanning me from the discord is an appropriate response and it just comes off as unprofessional.
Why you think you should be unbanned: I think the way the ban was handled alone is reason enough, but in addition to that I have cooled off somewhat and more importantly have lost most of my investment in the server. I just want to see what's up and talk to some of the community members I haven't spoke to in a bit. I might stay I might not, but I don't think it's fair to be banned and not even know why you were.
