Noting / Banning Admin: Keir
Length of ban: indefinite
Ban reason: Shift start said on common "Our starting artifact sucks fucking penis"
Ban issue: I did what I was banned/noted for, but the ban is unreasonably harsh.
Events leading to the ban
At the start of the shift, I checked our starting artifact and realized it had conflicting nodes that were completely impossible to fulfill, which does suck. I got frustrated and complained about it over common comms using the phrase mentioned in the ban reason.
Reason the ban should be removed
I sincerely apologize for my choice of words. I understand where the ban policy is coming from, but what I said had zero sexual intent. To give some context, English is my third language. When I saw the artifact nodes, I wanted to use some heavy profanity to express just how bad it was (similar to saying “this sucks ass”). I clumsily mashed together swears without realizing that it kinda crosses the line from standard vulgarity into sexually explicit territory for native speakers. My intent was purely to complain about the game mechanics, not to be sexual in the slightest.
I absolutely see now why this was inappropriate for common comms. I apologize for the trouble and promise to be much more careful with my phrasing and profanity moving forward. Thank you for considering my appeal.
