Mikaelcg's Ban Appeal

[mikaelcg]

BYOND Name: Mikaelcg


Reason Banned: Attemted meta comms with another player, Kevin_Osborne. 

Admin who banned: worgilisk

Length Banned: Permanent

Appeal Reason: If I connect from the same IP as another friend, and disconnect because of lag, it does not mean that I was metacomming. Banning for that reason is really lame. I was playing with my friend that picked up SS13 quite recently, and teaching him the basics. I did that on couple other servers, but I wanted to show him this one as I prefer the build. So, we had lag, and we both disconnected without even properly playing. However, I am aware of what metacomming is and ingame, I always RP and ask my friend to communicate me with Say command.  I did not use him as a tracking beacon, and never would. I was just teaching him the basics. worgilisk, I respect you as an admin, but thats lame. You did not even specify anything. Please, try not to ban without specifying. Did I do something illegal, like of someone killed me and I asked my friend to kill him. No, I barely played and ssd'd. C'mon. Investigate a bit more.

You got the ban because of the admin alerts I kept getting - your friend Kevin constantly trying to connect, but failing to do so with the Panic Bunker in the way.
When the attempts stopped, you DC'd.
And with already having received a ban for meta-comming already, this seems far too obvious a case against you.

Apologies, but my stance remains on this ban staying this time.

But how is that an attempt of meta communication? He did not even connect and we were not even interacting with each other in any way because he was not in game. Strange decisions, Worgilisk.
