SPCR - Game Ban Appeal

Username: SPCR

Banning Admin: BJP

Length of ban: 1 day

Ban reason: Failed to connect to server: Connect denied: You, or another user of this computer or connection, are banned from playing here. You were banned by: "BJP" The ban reason is: "Non-grouping | "Retard" and variants | 2nd offense | 1d GB Called themselves retarded." This ban is for 1,440 minutes and will expire at Tuesday, December 30, 2025 12:34 AM UTC. Attempts to circumvent this ban such as creating a new account will be logged.

Ban issue: I do not know why I was banned/noted.

Events leading to the ban

I was banned while offline so i don’t recall what happened or what context is this. The only thing that is remotely close to the word “Retarded” that i remember using is Stupid.

Reason the ban should be removed

I do not know what non-grouping is and im certain i didn’t say retarded at all in the last week?

Alternate Accounts

You did. ‘Non-grouping’ is the category. You already have a note on the use of the term, which led to the ban.

So after 10 days you decide to hunt through logs and ban? Don’t see how you can justify a ban for something so minor that happened 10 days ago. Not to mention it wasn’t targeted at anyone either. This seems just like looking for any excuse to ban anyone ?

When you all can’t resist using slurs in places where they are not allowed and getting the point across with warnings isn’t enough, I too wonder the same. I can’t talk for shi doe.

Call it what you want, someone else can handle this since this is my ban and I’m losing my shit rn.

Whether it was targeted or not doesn’t excuse anything, and you still said it. You got away with it that day (which you clearly shouldn’t have, but unfortunately we have lives outside the game, boo-hoo for me i live in a cave anyway), but I do agree it was basically minor and could’ve been another note counted as your second offense…

But no, I follow the policy, bro. By the time this is handled, the ban will be over, and I don’t think asking you if you still want to appeal the note would make sense, since you DID say it. Would you, for some reason, still want this processed?

So if its your ban and you agree its minor and could’ve been a note , why not fix it now ?
Seems silly to use the “i have a live” point but then hunt through logs from 10 days ago for a single use of retarded(not targeted at anyone) and ban for it.
It was also probably said in deadchat after a frustrating death , so admins online at the moment likely saw it and ignored it considering how minor it is.
I wonder how many people could get banned if you really went for everything as minor as this in chat logs.

I ‘hunt’ through logs because these were supposed to be noted and handled days ago, when no one was on Alpha for. I do this because I’d rather repeat offenders not keep getting away with these things, even when they’ve been warned. You have 496 hours on Goob (assuming they weren’t time transferred), you should know this, vro…

No admin was on for round 30056, in which this incident occurred. No admin should even be ignoring this in the first place. We don’t allow irl slurs in general.

I don’t think the term ‘retard’ is minor, but I mean, you do you. I follow the policy. I do as it says, simple.

Hi, as the ban has expired would you like it to be changed to a note appeal so it can be processed, or would you prefer to discontinue the appeal?

I’d like for it to continue being processed, the slur clearly affected no one.

Your appeal is in review.

This appeal was denied after review. You may reappeal in two weeks if you wish.
