Richard Russell Ban Appeal
#1
Ingame Name: Richard Russell

SteamID: 76561198067799685

Who Banned You: Icey

Reason For Ban: "Sexual harassment, trolling, passed our warn threshold"

Length of Ban: Permanent

Reason for Admins to Unban: I'm not sure what I did? I was banned when I wasn't playing, the last time I played I logged off the server without incident. The only thing "sexual harassment" related was a conversation I had with Slater regarding someone else who got banned apparently complaining that I was sexually harassing her. I don't remember this person's in game name but she received a 24h ban while I was playing for being generally rude to other players and saying slurs over voice chat. I did engage with her only to the extent of saying rude things back as other players on the server were at the time, simply because she was being a nuisance, never much more than telling her to shut up as she kept going on about her sexual encounters with other women. Slater DMed me after she was banned and told me to "ask for permission before flirting with females on the server" which I don't even know why that's something that's being brought up, my only interactions of significance with females on the server at that point had been negative ones with this person who got banned for harassment/slurs/warn threshold and also had multiple other people trolling her/pointing out the fact that she was being annoying.

In the same session on the server, I was RDMed multiple times by a player with the name of Tea. Shortly before RDMing me either the second or third time (he was slain for all attempts/actual RDM), Tea made a remark about having sexual relations with proper's husband. I mentioned this when I reported him for killing me (only in the report, not in game chat), and he started blabbing in voice chat about why am I talking about proper's husband, that's creepy, etc etc. This led to a few DMs back and forth between myself and proper, as she starting questioning why I said anything about her husband. I tried to explain but at that point it was fruitless because she seemed to have missed the context of Tea RDMing me and harassing her by saying he fucked her husband or whatever. 

I say all of this because I have no idea why I would have been permabanned but these were the most recent points of controversy of my time on the server, a lot of which I believe is attributed to misunderstanding. I have had no interactions with Icey and did not know that name until I saw the ban come up when I tried to connect just now. I expressed my frustration to Slater when he DMed me and gave me the verbal warning but he seemed to be understanding and took no tangible actions against me. 

Have you been banned before (Link relevant threads): Yes. I was banned for a week due to warn threshold. Before this, I did have I think either 4 or 8 warn points due to mic spam, which I do not dispute, I spammed the doug dimmadome remix but after being warned I did not do it again and have not been warned for mic spam since. I received the one week ban after getting a large number of warn points from a mod/admin by the name of Panda-something or something-Panda for "pedophilia jokes". I do not remember the exact circumstances leading to this as it was a few months ago, but at no point did I make anything resembling a joke about fucking pedophilia so I remember having an issue with that, however it was only a 1 week warn threshold ban so I just let it expire without fighting it. 

Other: I may be able to provide additional clarifying details if I knew exactly what I was banned for, but the description that pops up when I try to join the server is vague and leaving me to guess as to the real reason. All of the things I bring up about the conversations with Slater/proper/the banned individual happened well prior to the ban, as I said Slater seemed understanding and I felt like we came to a resolution that didn't involve punishment, plus there was probably a week between that conversation and my playing on the server again, during which nothing significant occurred so unless this ban is being applied for something that allegedly happened months ago I am genuinely confused. Long time player of the server with member status and never been accused of anything like this until now.

Edit: I was banned on 3/18 when the most recent time I joined the server was probably 3/15 or 3/16 so it appears I was banned multiple days after my last time on the server.
