I know the heading wasnt correct, but heres my information

Name: Sushi

http://steamcommunit...id/Yankeesushi/

 

I was banned for a week from joining lobbies for using the short circuit and pomson, but the thing is, there was no white list on the server so any of those weapons could be used. There is no rule stating that you cant use whitelisted weapons if there is no whitelist, if there is, then half the people  in that lobby should be banned, and i have seen multiple lobbies where people used whitelisted items with mods, and they did not get banned.

Just because there isn't a whitelist on the server, doesn't give you the right to use known, banned weapons. Try to work on your self control.

I have played over 490 lobbies and at least 100 of them I have seen no whitelist and people using whitelisted weapons, so maybe they should get a ban too? How bout this, if it was someones first lobby and there was no whitelist, what if that person didnt know those weapons were banned and used em? Would you ban them for using them even though they didnt know? How do you know my situation wasnt like that? It's not my self control that needs work, maybe as a moderator you should have seen that there was no whitelist and fixed it yourself.


And besides that, the weapons didn't affect the game, because we lost 3-0 anyways and I stopped halfway through, maybe you need to work on your self control on finding reasons to ban people.

Why would people get banned for using whitelisted weapons?  You were using weapons that were not whitelisted which is what the problem was.

I was using weapons that are supposed to be whitelisted but the thing is there was no whitelist. Whitelist are supposed to ban the things not allowed and since there was no whitelist, technically im allowed to use them.

None, there is no rule stating you cant use whitelisted weapons when there is no whitelist.

I was just about to type out a long response about this with a slight shortening of the ban, but I seem to have found previous misconduct of this user.

Technically according to our internal guide, your ban would be 1 month instead of one week. However in this case, and I'm feeling a bit nice today, I'm just going to leave this ban intact and let the week run its course. 

 

The rules around banned weapon use will be laid out more clearly in our rules shortly. However do note that we do not appreciate this behavior, and it does technically fall under our "Inappropriate behavior " rule.

 

Declined

Can I get one of your internal guides for use? And also, that ban was for a joke with a supposedly TF2C mod friend but he took his job way too seriously

Oh whoops, our internal guide also says to lock the thread after you make a decision. 

 

No, it's internal for a reason. But it essentially it says to increase ban length with subsequent offences.

 

EDIT: Leniency has been declined due to recent forum misconduct. Seriously. We ignore a potential 1 month ban and then a couple hours later you go and try and insult someone on the forums? 

 

1 month ban. From now.
