Title: Zombie Ban Appeal
Post by: zombie on January 11, 2012, 11:20:59 AM
1. Steam ID    STEAM_0:0:6253320

2. Players Nickname   Zombie

3. Your in-game name  Zombie, Z o m b i e, Zombie is Snooze

4. Server name F2S Stronghold

5. Description of the event(s)  I changed my steam name to "1%" last night before I signed off, I logged into steam this morning, tried to join stronghold, and I got a message saying I was banned for using a banned name or something like that. I had no idea what I did, so I changed it back to Zombie and now it says im Permabanned.

6. Reason for appeal.  I dont hack, I dont cheat, i LOOVE stronghold, and this server is clearly the best. I've been playing for 2 or 3 months now, Im quite good, I was being specced by coolzeldad a few days ago but I dont cheat. it was a good game for me. I am cool with NRG iStealth and some other Regs, and stronghold is the only game I play on PC anymore, I can easily log 3-5 hours a day in it on the days Im home. Zombie

7. Screenshots or demo(s) | Optional console log(s)  I dont have a screenshot, its just a permabanned message now when I log in. should I grab a screenie of that?

8. Link to sourceban page   I cant find my steam ID or anything else in the ban page

Talk to coolzeldad, it's an auto ban and admins can't do anything about it.

Given zombie is a huge ak47 whore, he doesnt hack at all.

When you change your name (atleast in TTT) you get banned for 10 minutes. It could have glitched and "permanently" banned you for 10 minutes, I guess.

Eion, he was banned from Stronghold. It's probably the % character, since it's possible to have an invisible name with it.
