Hello! This is the first post I'm making on this forum, so bare with any oddities you may find on the post. I'll separate my reasoning so that it doesn't come off as muddled.
Firstly; I fully accept and agree that what I did was not acceptable. RP is a HRP server, and playing characters who are antagonistic, or who have antagonistic personalities, should be done with much more tact than the character I played whilst receiving a ban.
So to summarize the round and clarify for future notice, the character I logged in as on RP was a fresh character. I made him along with my friend who I wanted to get into SS13 for the purposes of roleplaying and writing. The character I made was an old character of mine ('Gulliver DeBoonie'), a big muscled up dickhead with his face-skin peeled off. I made sure to teach him ICly, and made the OOC tips and 'corrections' to such things as movement or how to set up macros, as curt as possible, as I know metacomm'ing isn't acceptable. Once we were comfortable enough with getting into 'proper' character, I had my character, Gulliver, ask the CMO if he could have a monkey to show him how combat is done 'on colony' (The use of armlocking and grip-based combat). When the CMO said no, and to leave, Gulliver yielded, but stole a plant as 'rightful payment'.
The CMO radio'd security, and as Gulliver and his friend were in the elevator, the security officers informed Gulliver that he was to be detained. Gulliver stated, and I quote, 'I'd like to see you fucking try'. And of course, the officer tried to detain Gulliver. I made sure not to do anything lethal, disarming the officer and stealing his gun to crack a few taser shots off. Of course, Gulliver was detained and dragged into the brig. As I listed in his OOC notes, he isn't a kind person, nor is he a friendly person. Aside from threats and 'making a fuss', I did not have Gulliver do anything lethal, and I played along with him being peppersprayed and thrown into the hole for the assigned sentence of 40 minutes (It should be noted, that's what they were suggesting, and the shuttle arrived before the sentence could be properly administered). During this, nylonblitz had been messaging me, and asking why I chose a character like Gulliver. I briefly described the situation of me wanting to bring my friend into SS13 RP, and they were silent until I was issued a perma ban.
I am not a griefer. I adore the Citadel community, and have been an on/off member for as far back as 7/26/2017 (Looked back at the discord's logs to find a proper date when I was more active). While I may be hard to deal with trying to learn new things for how each department can be played, I like to think that aside from my character's personalities, I'm a very reasonable and understanding person. I've made a lot of friends through Citadel, both on RP and on Main, and while I understand the context isn't very forgiving, I still fully stand on that point. I am not a griefer.
EDIT: I just wanted to add in my rebuttal for 'Nanotrasen doesn't hire X' This was the lore I quoted in support of bringing a character like that onto the server;
"Out in the frontier, employers, be they a captain of a Free Trade vessel, a Trans-Stellar executive, or just someone with money to spare and in need of an extra hand, are forced to take just about whoever is willing and apparently able. With Sol being months worth of spaceflight away—even with faster than light travel—running a full background check on a candidate is not viable, which means many questionable people get placed in even the most high-security positions and loyalty is 'by your word', which means in Virgo, corporate backstabbing and criminal activity is quite high. This and a lack of available employees in general means employees who do prove themselves often find themselves promoted quickly, and put into positions that they are even the slightest bit capable of."
