Title: Null's appeal to anybody concerned
Post by: null on September 24, 2011, 08:10:28 PM
So I’m told the thread stays locked and I’m not even allowed to post in the thread about my ban. I have to come here and appeal. Well fine. Even though I think 3 days is quite harsh considering the circumstances, I did rdm people 1 round, 1 time since I’ve been playing on this server. 252 total hours in Gmod. Just about ALL of them in this server. It’s nice to see that people take this kind of thing seriously, but very disconcerting to see it’s taken seriously so selectively.
# 424 "null" STEAM_0:1:4939948 01:11 394 9 active

2. Players Nickname - null

3. Your in-game name - null

4. Server name (Wirebuild, Zombie Survival) - .:`=~rANdOm~`-=:. –Trouble in Terrorist Town

5. Description of the event(s)
I killed people one round.

6. Reason for appeal
First traitor round I get, a player named something Cat is my T buddy. He suicides. I’m screwed.
Next T round which I waited 45 minutes for, Cat is again my t buddy, and again he suicides. The other T is very low karma, double digits. They are both dead. Then someone snipes me. I am at 6 hp and everyone is assuming im the traitor. I had done nothing. The reason this person sniped me was because apparently I picked up a discombob and I was standing close to him. That’s exactly what he said. Then Russian says, “ah fuck it” and just kills me because he figures im probably a T and its worth the risk.
Another 30 minutes or so, and I have a T round again… finally. Some new player comes into the server and just straight up kills me at the start of the round, then disconnects.
I’m starting to get pretty fed up with the way people talk to me about these events. “Youmad null”? “Nobody gives a fuck its just a game”. “Rdm happens its part of the game, nobody cares”.

I’ve been playing 6 hours and 20 minutes now. We are on whitehouse, And I finally become T again.
Pretty soon Russian plants C4 below the elevator. A lot of people are downstairs and we all hear it.
Everyone is shouting on the mic “GET UPSTAIRS there is C4!!!”. At least 5 people are on the elevator going upstairs, including me and Russian. As soon as we reach the top, the elevator goes back down again. People start laughing. Others, including myself are saying “Quit hitting the button” We are going back up now. As we are approaching the top again, I see…..
This Toast (who I think, at the time was named Siht Tsaot but maybe not)
elkenfugel
Ethan Mars
Felix
Godlike
And again, the elevator goes back down and we are all trapped.
I see people lol in chat about the situation, as everyone else is screaming “QUIT SPAMMING THE FUCKING BUTTON!”.

The C4 explodes, we are killed and the traitors lose obviously.
Now Russian and I are asking who it was that was spamming the button. Everyone up top are refusing to answer.
People start saying more shit like.
“Whatever it doesn’t matter”, “Nobody cares about RDM”
“Report it if your mad” Well I’d like to report it, but tell me who did it.
“Stfu null and Russian”. Etc. etc.

So next round I figured… Ok so nobody cares about rdm?.....
I screamed on the mic about how I’ve been killed as t for no reason every fucking time the entire night. I asked again and again who it was that spammed the button. One person said on the mic “I’m not telling you”. The rest just stayed quiet.
“OMG you guys, null is about to go on a rampage” someone said.
So I put 2 and 2 together and figured people on this server figure RDM really isn’t a big deal and I tried to kill everyone who I knew for sure was upstairs. I knew my karma was going to hit rock bottom. Then Toast killed me assuming I was T. I think he got mad about losing karma for killing me.
After that I didn’t hear one complaint. People were laughing about the situation. I even played for a while after that, never hearing one complaint about it. Never knowing about the report about me on the forums.
One thing I’d like to know is why Toast would report this, but not report… Or even tell me who it was that RDM’d all of us on the elevator. He was upstairs and could see who was doing it.

Then  Hotgreensoldier +1’s the thread saying “was having problems with this guy yesterday” Really Hotgreen? What problem was that? How about the one where you RDM’d me on the 7th? Remember that? It was when you exploded the barrel for no reason and I died. Is that what you’re speaking of?
I don’t know why Kahuna is involved; I don’t believe he was even in the server.
Then before I even knew the thread existed, it’s locked and I’m banned. It would be nice if other people who were present for these events would speak the truth.

Why the hell do people regularly get away with this kind of thing, But I get banned for 3 days for doing it ONE TIME. One time, mind you, when nobody cared. Well almost nobody, apparently Toast cared.

7. Screenshots or demo(s) | Optional console log(s)
I really wish I would have recorded this. Maybe we would be able to figure out who killed everyone on the previous round. You would be able to see the attitudes people had toward the situation.

8. Link to sourceban page http://bans.randomgs.com/index.php?p=banlist&advSearch=STEAM_0:1:4939948&advType=steamid&Submit (http://bans.randomgs.com/index.php?p=banlist&advSearch=STEAM_0:1:4939948&advType=steamid&Submit)

Do what you will. It’s not my server. Repeat offenders aren’t getting caught here, it’s the first time offenders who get the punishments. I guess from now on, I’ll just have to record every round and start reporting every incident. Then again, people will probably just have attitudes with me if I did that.

If you want them. I have a demo of,
Chunky King glitching the elevator on purpose.
Paz RDMing (And LoneWolf sticking up for him and possibly ghosting with paz)
Xweapon rdming
Rhombicuboctahedron Trolling, blocking paths on purpose, baiting, spamming things like “YOUMAD” and “I’m ddosing the server”.
Peas going to unreachable places on the map after he was told not to.
And I’m not going to sit here watching the rest of them, just to finish this list.

Just let me know how this works. Do we report all this shit or not? Because until Toasts report of my one-time offense, I was under the impression that nobody cared.

Yes, I was name Siht Tsaot that time. I was not aware that there was c4 and someone spamming the elevator since I was watching TV more than playing. Next round, I took my place at the "statue thingy" where I'm not seen obviously there. Then just saw you killed guy infront of me and I chased you. No, I was not mad that I killed you since I muted you that time, so I thought you were a traitor. As for other people, like Hotgreen, you wait for their opinion but YOU DID RDM. For me, Enjoy the ban :thumbsdown:

How convenient, and wow you seem to be genuinely enjoying this.
Also I want to make it clear that I am not reporting russian for any sort of RDMing here. His suspicion was correct, and possibly solidified by the way I was talking. However the first guy that shot me had no reason to.

I want to actually confirm that the events he described confirmed that situation. KGB is  :thumbsup: for this I was killed by that elevator spam as well and I was T too.
Also Null forgive me my friend for shooting you that other map you talk it went all how do you say? confusin ? I come in 4 guys shooting each other so I stood there confuse :-[ and just shot all the survived ones.

So definate  :thumbsup: for his appeal some people were trolling him and me, then when we try to find who they all kept saying "You Mad Bro?" or "STFU Russian and Null"

Toast your attitude toward him is a bit harsh.
As for the OP, TTT is a harsh land that will take and take from you until you have nothing to give.

BTW, I don't think this is an apeal but more of telling us the story, since a 3 day ban will be expired by the time an admin replies

Yes I did say that because who wouldn't get annoyed?

"I was not aware that there was c4 and someone spamming the elevator since I was watching TV more than playing" I'm wearing only my left headphones while you guys were mic-spamming and my TV at high volume. How will I hear it?

>Anyway, I'm sorry for the "Enjoy the ban" gag. I only got that from a dude I forgot who.
>We do know that you did RDM and really deserves a ban.

First of all, that map has a teleporter in the basement which you can ALSO go through. The elevator has cooldown for pressing the button of about 4 seconds giving you a slight chance to get out or catch their name.

ALSO, I never rdm'd you.

Rdm is RANDOM DEATH MATCH, I started crow barring you because someone had shot a barrel next to us with a pistol and guess what, YOU had one out. You put it away and said "oh Hotgreen, why did you crowbar that barrel?" and tried to get people to suspect me. I had a reason to attempt to kill you and I didn't even manage to. That was thhe only time I ever even ATTEMPTED to kill you.

EDIT: LOLWAIT, THAT WAS THE OTHER GUY. LOLOL. You do realize it was wolfpac who shot the barrel...I told you that about 4 times, and you are still trying to frame me? Check the logs bud.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I do not know whether This toast or what the other guy were doing but when you start accusing for something that wasn't even the truth, that's when I'll step in.

ALSO, EVEN if other people are breaking the rules doesn't mean you can too. You got caught for it, so you got banned. Simple as that. If you want the others to get punished, report them too.

You did mass RDM and revenge RDM. If this toast and those others were spamming the elevator, you're suppose to report them.

Yes, yes, yes.

ONTOPIC: I'm not saying the ban was unjustified but he was provoked to RDM

Revenge RDM is not allowed, no matter what.

If you are so serious about that happening just take a break and go outside rather then bringing yourself down to their level.

Exactly but I know for sure I am innocent and just playing. I know I was up there but I also know I never pressed that button during that round since I'm not a fan of the basement in whitehouse.

Waitwat

I thought this was that snow map....Whitehouse can't even be spammed...Lol.

If it WAS whitehouse, you have a very big window for jumping off of it.

As for the snow one, you have about 1-2 seconds to get out.

I too was confused here. How could have they not get off that elevator? Why did the traitors not get away since T's can see C4's at the map and how long 'till it explodes; Instead they decide to play within C4 range.

Is this the 'problem' your speaking of that you apparently had with me the other day? Ok. Well other people were saying that they heard a crowbar just before the explosion. It wasn't just me blaming you. You were the only one who said he heard a pistol. And you admit to randomly crowbar-ing staggz. This wasn't pre-round. This also wasn't more than 10 seconds after the round started.

you're suppose to report them.
Yes ok. Now will you please tell me which one of you up there was hitting the button so it can be reported?

Anyway back on topic. I want to make this clear. I am not totally appealing the ban. I did revenge rdm. I admitted to that. I don't know why people have to keep pointing that out as if I'm lying about it or something. I just couldn't post in the actual thread about my ban because nobody ever told me it existed. And it's locked. All I'm saying is that I think 3 days is too long. And I don't understand why certain people are so upset about this one time incident with me, but seem to be indifferent regarding many many other situations.

Did I not just say that it wasn't RDM due to the fact I had a REASON to try to kill him?

If you did not get any proof of them doing it we cannot take any action. If you don't record it we won't be able to do anything about it, but others got proof of you.


The reason they are upset is because you are accusing others with no proof.


If you would have liked to make a appeal in which we would take some consideration, I know I would, it would have been just fine if you put something like this

"I was banned for three days due to the fact I Mass and Revenge RDM'd. This was my first offense and I am sorry. It will not happen again, it would be appreciated if some of you took this appeal into consideration of making my ban shorter or removing it altogether. Thank you for reading."

If you wanted to talk about how the others did stuff to you, talk to an admin.

Yes it was whitehouse. And as I explained already, there were a lot of people on the elevator. We all got on and went up to escape the c4. And before we could get off on top the gates came back up and we were on the way down again. I was behind everyone on the elevator, and before I could even consider getting off at the bottom it was on the way back up. Again, before anyone could get off at the top, it was going back down. (The gates trap you from getting off at the top) The moment the elevator reached the bottom the c4 exploded.
Besides I don't see how the point here has changed from "Someone was purposely spamming the button and laughing about it knowingly sending people to their deaths" to "wait what map was it? oh maybe people could have escaped". That is beside the point. Someone was purposely trying to RDM, and many other people had the ability to report who it was but refused to.

...You do realize you can EASILY jump over the gates on whitehouse...You have 2 seconds to walk off, and 5 seconds total to jump over the gates (including the original 2 seconds)

If it was the snowy map thingy it would have been a different story. You did not provide any information of what map it was before.

Scratch that

skimmed through the OP untill I got to the parts of him Rdming.

Yet again, if they were spamming the button, REPORT THEM. This does not exempt you from the rules.

Mass edit:

Let me get something straight, you aren't really trying to appeal but you are trying to tell everyone that OTHER players were breaking the rules....But you did not have any evidence so you used the appeal forum instead? You openely admitted you RDM'd and you got banned. You think it was a bit harsh that you got a 3day ban and think it should be shorter, but instead you try to accuse others. You REVENGE rdm'd along with mass RDM. That calls for about a 3day ban.

Null, even if there is someone who saw who was spamming it, i don't belive they got proofs.

and without proofs there can't be a ban.


For me the objective of this thread was to make your ban shorter, and i belive like it is your first time and bla bla 1 day sounds good, but now it looks like you are trying to get someone banned.

Post by: null on September 24, 2011, 09:29:56 PM
Hotgreensoldier I don't understand how your last 3 posts are contributing to the topic. For starters, if it is so easy to jump over the gate, how come nobody on the elevator was able to escape even though almost all tried? And secondly, how is that even relevant?
You keep repeating "Report it report it" Yes I would love to. So please tell me who was up there doing it.
Oh... were you not even there?
Then why were you posting in the thread about my ban? And what were these "problems" you mentioned?
Why are you even involved?
Were you there? Then please tell all of us who was spamming the button so we can report it. We both agree on that fact, it needs to be reported.
Otherwise. I' don't want to sound rude, but your posts are not contributing to the discussion.
This isn't about you at all.

For me the objective of this thread was to make your ban shorter, and i belive like it is your first time and bla bla 1 day sounds good, but now it looks like you are trying to get someone banned.
Wait what? Yes if I could somehow get the proof I needed to report the person who rdm'd all the people there, I totally would file a report. But why would that have any bearing on your opinion of me? Are you saying it's ok for me to be banned, but not for me to get someone else banned for the exact same reason?

Hotgreensoldier I don't understand how your last 3 posts are contributing to the topic. For starters, if it is so easy to jump over the gate, how come nobody on the elevator was able to escape even though almost all tried? And secondly, how is that even relevant?
You keep repeating "Report it report it" Yes I would love to. So please tell me who was up there doing it.
Oh... were you not even there?

Lol....Especially when you included me in the OP.

It is our jobs as VIPs to read reports, appeals, and pretty much everything and have a say in it. You provided a invalid appeal argument in my eyes and included false info about me doing something so I stepped in and said something.

This isn't about me but that doesn't mean I can't say anything.

Oh, since you don't have proof we can't do anything about it then. But you KEEP trying to get them involved even though you yourself were not responsible enough to get proof.

EDIT:

No it's not okay but you did not get any proof whatsoever. Someone else got proof of you doing something bad so you got banned. If you wanted the other people banned you would have gotten proof instead of breaking the rules yourself, thinking because they didn't get caught that you wouldn't.

You got banned for killing someone for the wrong reason.


i don't say it is fair that the guy who spammed the buton doesn't get any punishment, but i do belive that if you don't even know who it was you shouldn't kinda derail your own appeal.

Yes I mentioned how you posted in the first thread that I never knew about. And how you said "We had problems with this guy". And you still haven't explained the alleged problems you had with me.

You provided a invalid appeal argument in my eyes and included false info about me doing something so I stepped in and said something.
Your opinion is yours. I don't believe my appeal argument (that the ban is too long for the offense) is invalid. The info I included about you is not false. Unfortunately I was not recording. But there was a round where you caused a barrel to explode and it killed me and I was traitor. What you brought up was an entirely different round.

This isn't about me but that doesn't mean I can't say anything.
Yes just please stay on topic.

Oh, since you don't have proof we can't do anything about it then. But you KEEP trying to get them involved even though you yourself were not responsible enough to get proof.
Now I wasn't 'responsible' because I was trapped on an elevator where 99% of the time I could not see who was upstairs, let alone who was at the controls? Because I didn't think "Hey maybe I should start recording this right now". Its not like the end-of-round log would show who was pressing a button. All I did was ask you who did it. Its clear that the answer will not ever be known. So this particular subject is moot (who did it, and that it would be nice to be able to report it). Please stop bringing it up.

I never destroyed a single barrel. I was only accused of exploding one that ONLY round.

So if you aren't trying to talk about how they did that to you, what is our argument here about then?

We have already discussed that your 3day ban was in order due to the fact you revenge RDM'd and mass RDM'd.

We discussed that there is no evidence of the others doing stuff to you.

So why are we still arguing about this?

EDIT: A friend brought up something...I WOULD very much like to see the regulars who did wrong and broke the rules to be reported and demoted. But unfortunately no proof has been brought up. You got the wrong idea that RDM'ing didn't matter but common sense would tell you that you should not step to their level and do something about them doing that.

I am sorry that you were the only one to be reported and banned, but unfortunately no evidence was brought fourth for the other players.

Yes please drop it. I already explained twice that I started this thread because I was not allowed to post in the original and nobody ever told me about it. And I am appealing the length, not the ban.
Also. This is probably the 4th or 5th time I asked. But.... You acted as a sort of character witness in the ban report thread about me. And you claimed to have problems with me the other day. I still would like to know what you were talking about.

When the round had ended you kept saying "Hotgreen, why did you explode the barrel and make me lose my T round?" in a negative tone.

Even after I told told you 2-3 times you still kept saying it.

Also, as for the barrel thing, why exactly will you not continue the argument? If you have nothing to hide them go out and say it.

EDIT: So it's been explained that the ban was in order. May we please lock this and move on? If you would like to make another statement please do Null.

That doesn't even make sense. I wasn't T that round, and I lived through the explosion to suspect you. That round, Me and a few others suspected you of doing something that you didn't do. Just as you suspected me of doing something I didn't do. That does not amount to ... "We had some problems with this guy yesterday".
And as for the other barrel explosion when I was T and did die... I said I'm not going to argue about it because I have no evidence.
Just like you said previously, why argue about something that is off-topic and of which I have no evidence.
Please leave it be now.

In my opinion, 3 days is to long for what he did.

How much did he rdm, once or twice?

Yes, what he did was wrong and he knew it, but 3 days? really?

a day or two AT MOST would have been fair.

Yes, I was name Siht Tsaot that time. I was not aware that there was c4 and someone spamming the elevator since I was watching TV more than playing. Next round, I took my place at the "statue thingy" where I'm not seen obviously there. Then just saw you killed guy infront of me and I chased you. No, I was not mad that I killed you since I muted you that time, so I thought you were a traitor. As for other people, like Hotgreen, you wait for their opinion but YOU DID RDM. For me, Enjoy the ban :thumbsdown:
IMO, I do not think null deserved this ban. There are other players doing more than just RDMing and seeing as theres no other reports on null, or if I go in-game I see or hear a player complaining about null. I think hes a good player and just let his frustration overcome him causing him kill players in TTT. Even if I was somewhat new and read that "nobody cares about rdm" i would have done the same.

Idk if the ban stays it shound't be 3 days.

He killed 4 people in a revenge rdm mood but was stopped when someone killed him.

Actually, from his stats, it showed that he's been in this server for a total of 70+ hours...Could possibly be just someone else using that name but I think it makes different stats for them.

Hmm I guess I overestimated. I just saw that I've been playing gmod for over 200 hours and figured most of it was in this server. Anyway he did say 'somewhat' new. Relativity and all that. I think the point Terry was trying to make is that the punishment doesn't fit the crime in his opinion. Consider the fact that by your own research you can verify I have been in the server at least 70 hours, and this is the only incident. At all other times, I keep my karma at, or close to, 1000.

Sourcebans works like that, dem's da banz :L


At least you weren't banned by something like Vanilla build...Everyone can votekick and voteban and if you did, you got banned from all the other servers too.

It has been proven you have committed an offense.

Three days seems reasonable to make the ban have a purpose.

I don't think talking about it warrants a reduction.

If I'm right, you are hoffman...

You weren't banned just for rdm'ing, If I recall. You acted like a total douchebag/ass to everyone, and I think even more. A link to the report would be appreciated, if anyone has it.

It has been proven you have committed an offense.

I agree on the fact a three day ban makes it have a purpose, but Null made a well written appeal. He did admit what rules infringements he commited, and I admire that. I think that he should have a 1 day ban, just as a warning, and if he keeps rdm'ing, we could ban him again for a specific time, depending on the circumstances of the events that happened. I know, Null, that you were annoyed by the players on the server, but as many persons already stated, we cannot do anything without proof, we are sorry for that.

As for everyone else who would be posting in this thread, if you have nothing useful to say or debate about the ban, then don't post, such as lolking did. Not only is this a useless post, but it doesn't help us determine whether the ban should be shortened or not. And finally, why Dark Pacifist are you +1'ing everyone who postes? People are simply providing arguments about Null's ban.

I hope this helped clarify some stuff up.

You were also chat spamming and trolling. That's what warranted you a 1 week ban.
