Name: Doggo
Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:105929590
Original length of ban: Permanent
Time since ban: 4 or 5 months.
Who banned you: Drewerth on server, unknown on forums.
Reason for original ban: "You have been banned for the following reason: nonplayer."
Proof(If Applicable): ^
Reason for unban: I've had lots of time to sit and be bitter about my ban, and I think it's a good time to try again. My ban was probably the result of a lot of things compounded, but I know for certain that it has a lot to do with Pirate and a lot to do with my incessant shitting on of the server.
For this reason, I want everyone to understand that although I still have criticisms of the server, I don't want to fill up anyone's ear with them and I've been very self-aware of it as I think the mapping discord can corroborate. I understand that hearing something you enjoy repeatedly shit on day-in and day-out is both irritating and disheartening. I have also come to understand that. More importantly, I want TnB to understand that I did not because of a LACK of passion for the server, but the opposite; I really did and still do care about the quality of the experience on-server.
In regards to Pirate, I'm going to be completely honest. Although I agree that I shouldn't have said what I said, I think Pirate handled it himself and I think that what I said is very mild given he's a grown man. I don't think Pirate is innocent of similar, and although I hate to use that, I feel that his recent activity at the community has made it relevant. The community has taken a welcome turn of management that's sought to eliminate a lot of hate and a lot of negativity that I admit I participated in, but for what I said and to who I said it to, I don't believe it warrants a community ban. Nothing I said could be considered bigoted, hateful, or regarded as an attack on someone's personal character; I taunted Pirate by saying that he's crazy for how polarized his attitude towards the community is.
Lastly, I want to touch a little on this community ban situation. I've talked the community's ear off, shit on the server, and made a short-lived but messy situation on server. Does all that make much sense to put me in a similar basket to Kestrel or Jules or Wookie? I'm not saying I don't deserve a permaban from the server, but after my first appeal and my history on server, I don't think it should stick this long. I'd like to be able to contribute to the community in a good way, instead of leaving it how I am.
