Length of Ban: permanently
Reason for Admins to Unban: 5 years have passed 
Have you been banned before (Link relevant threads): cant remember
Other: 5 years ago I was banned, unban I think is appropriate. 

• It's been 5 years since you were permanently banned
  
• you were banned for this: "trolling, insulting behavior, gag evasion, tons of warnings, constant mic spam - see ban request 10/18/2020" temp banned on 10/18/2020 then extended to a perma on 10/24/2020 due to ban evading."
  

• you (presumably) should know the unban format by now,
  

• you can readily check what you are being banned for.
  

• moreover, ban evading is always a permanent punishment.
  

• you didnt do any of the formatting shit. (minor, but go on.)
  
• you don't know why you were banned (and thus can't tell us how you have changed since to stop the offending behavior)
  
• didn't discuss why you should be let back in other than "hurr durr, me hate sit time out :(  "

Just to provide some info.

• didn't discuss why you should be let back in other than "hurr durr, me hate sit time out :(  "
  

Is that an accurate summary? because based on the nonexistent information you gave to everyone, and the information readily available, I don't really see how letting you back in could be justifiable. at least put a wee bit of effort into the "I've changed" bit.


Since you have provided no defense for yourself other than the stellar "hurr durr me hate time out :(  " defense, would you care on actually elaborating on what's different? 

if you were to be let back in, why wouldn't you engage in the same behavior?


that's all to say, without an explanation that makes sense I can only justify this with a -1.


I thought the 5 year ban was enough of an explanation in it of itself. I wouldn't be a troll like I was, I admit I got out of control and definitely deserved the ban at the time. It was during COVID and I was honestly losing my mind lol, I was probably having manic episodes on the daily in there. Before getting banned, I was a long time player and was spending most of my free time in that server around that time and made a bunch of friends, I can't even remember what my username was back then. Also, there are not many TTT servers around anymore, and I do respect Dink's TTT especially because of how long it's been around, and I really enjoyed playing. If I was unbanned I would just chill out like a regular player, I don't even think the micspam and all that shit is funny anmore anyways

(07-31-2025, 12:32 PM)My bad, I genuinely am not accustomed to "forum etiquette". I legitimately figured that A. Nobody even remembers who I am or what happenedB. The Staff has completely changed (I dont recognize anyone anymore)C. It has actually been 5 years, that's older than many players on the serverTherefore, I assumed I would be unbanned without issue.I did not mean to insult by neglecting to explain my situation by any means  - I understand now how that would be considered rude or disingenuous. Please keep in mind that I am and always have been a total stranger to these types of forums - whether it be on GMod, C:SS, or any other type of server that has all these threads, rules, etc. PandaInPants Wrote: “I thought the 5 year ban was enough of an explanation in it of itself.

biig sad wrote you a nice long essay damn.
I just wanted to say it would convince more people if you were more open with this kind of paragraph from the start so you wouldn’t have had to deal with an essay and posts mad about no effort. People should just be normal with their appeals cause they would be approved a lot more often with less fighting and aggression. + 1 because why not
