I dont appreciate you stating I handled it unprofessionally when you yourself dont even have the full context.
I discussed the situation with other staff, and it was decided that the ban be placed after about a half hour.
Due to the fact that there have been numerous complaints about Prax self antagging the prior round, it absolutely was called for to announce what was officially done about it.
I was not involved with the incident leading to the bans, either.
And this being the only icident of a PK does not matter, and neither does everyones belief that it wouldnt happen.
If the character proves to be the main cause of an issue that has received more than enough warnings to correct, the character will be no longer allowed to be used.
The character was the main problem, the player is usually fine.
The server ban was delivered due to the caliber of the over escalation involved in the round, which others suggested it be made three days instead of the week after I had already applied the ban.
I'm fine with a ban sentence reduuction on the server part, to three days total.
Additionally, to have a proper record of a warning to correct the character's behavior, with a PK being my suggestion from the start, I will allow them to play the character again on their return with a zero tolerance warning.
They +will+ adhere to this, by adding in their security records that ay medium infraction and above proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, will be considered a capital offense punishable by HuT and judgement by nanotrasen pending.
Judging from what other staff have said, it would seem there was a miscommunication on
what exactly, happened. And how it did, but that's not unusual.
Nobody complained in OOC, You had no reason to disclose your actions in OOC, which caught people by surprise, prompting statements such as "Whoa hold the fuck up, we're doing character deaths now?" and was met with mixed reception between those actively present and discussing it, you then told people "Not to spark a debate on discord" about it. Those who complained before this decision in Discord were eight uninvolved parties, briefly echo chambering as usual, when they see potential "Drama". The only relevant parties were, an officer who, from my understanding; caused the plasma fire, or was around when someone came in with a lit cigar, effectively causing the plasma fire. And Kori, who said a brief piece.
You were, as you had actively been playing and stated that you were attempting to interact with Prax as a Cargo Technician while they were being hunted, for whatever reason, you thought
that would be a good idea, to attempt ICly. In such a situation, and based your decision off it, in OOC, announcing that you had "PK'd" and "Banned" them for a week.
Perhaps you shouldn't lie to the playerbase, or make it seem as though other admins have lied, then. As it was stated that, we "Don't have PK". And that "PK is dumb", "Can we not PK please, it's aids." "No PK." "I don't want to enforce PK." Etcetera, whenever the concept was brought up in the past by players, responses by admins.
They were not warned, ever. From my understanding. not ICly. Not OOCly. That their behavior should be "Improved", or that they would be "PK'd". Throwing a few insults is hardly being the "Main cause of an issue". Quite frankly, we'd need to ban a lot of people for that.
"Additionally, to have a proper record of a warning to correct the character's behavior, with a PK being my suggestion from the start, I will allow them to play the character again on their return with a zero tolerance warning."
That seems rather harsh for someone who was,
never warned in the first place. or officially told that their behavior was an issue, and asked to tone it down.
