Unwarn Appeal- Lunar Colony

Recommended Posts

In game name: Lunar Colony

STEAM ID: STEAM_0:0:43028249

Steam Name: The Card

What is the reason of the warning: "Wasting staff time" and being "toxic"

Name of the staff member who warned you: Maurice

Why shall I be unwarned: So first this happened like 1-2 months ago I can't remember, I posted the console log to Nathan Beck via discord, people who was in this could remember what happened or so. I will colourise the texts so it will be easier to see and understand, uneeded things or IC/OOC stuff will be in diffirent colour and staff sit will be diffirent colour. I will explain what did I do with a diffirent too, anyway the spoiler will have the logs and all.

 

Spoiler

The start: Kinqu Kyle called a staff sit cause I killed him, the reason why I killed him he was near 2 SCP's (SCP-049-II and SCP-008-II which are infectious) Fading Door oppened and I tried to cuff him and get him to SCP-500 cause I couldn't let a SCP-008 outbreak happening in the room, and there was over 3 unarmed personel in there. I didn't risked the chances and tried to cuff him, he ran away and I shot him. (And he had the SLAM idle animation aka the pose when you hold the Keycard, I thought he oppened it so there was another reason why I was gona arrest him, but his friend oppened it not a big thing but just making things clear.)

[Platinum-VIP]Commander Steelpoint: you can't use the keycard bug anymore So for new people in V5 and earlier your animation when you die (like holding a pistol, AK etc.) was your Keycard Animation. In raids you could look like you holding an AK, but you werent. Diesel Changed and reworked keycards so people couldn't use the keycard bug anymore, thats what I meant.

This is the first part done, an useless sit which is a time waster. I decide to call Norra and inform about this: E-11 or any Containment Unit can assume someone who is near an infectous SCP without any protection "Infected", it was like that since I joined and this was the first time I get in to the sit about it.

You to admins: norra get to me

[Trial-Moderator]Ludwig Ahgrin: im not retarded lunar The thing is if he knew that why he kept the sit for 10 minutes, since it was valid with and without an evidence.
[Staff-Manager]Maurice D Biggs: since it was an admin call

[Staff-Manager]Maurice D Biggs: and this isnt a sit

[Staff-Manager]Maurice D Biggs: I could just warn youf wasting time
[Trial-Moderator]Ludwig Ahgrin: hes not wrong

Personally, calling T-Mods to teach them something or inform them about something is "Useless Admin Calls" like duhh, they are new staff people (I will not call a this thing on Noe, Banshee, Gordon etc.) but they know everything I guess, I still don't understand why don't they just get Mod.

[Platinum-VIP]Commander Steelpoint: Wait
Staff-Manager]Maurice D Biggs: can you stop being so rude
[Platinum-VIP](OOC) Will Sykes: Kinqu Kyle
[Platinum-VIP]Commander Steelpoint: I am wasting time? I thought Maurice will understand I am trying to inform a T-Mod about something but he didn't I guess.

[Platinum-VIP](OOC) Cuddle Teddy: Foundation

Both of them leave without listening. I will not keep this going cause it is mostly OOC stuff and I got tired of writing and coloring this, I call maurice about this and leaving mid conversion saying I could be arrogant etc. Getting an warn for that and calling maurice again to ask why did I get warned and wanting the removal and getting another warn for that.

This messages has been sent to Nathan Beck on discord application. I didn't edit it or did something to it, if you doubting the logs DM me on discord and I will screenshare the DM's. Personaly I think I deserve a verbal warning in this sitation, but when I discuss it with Norra and explain my point I get this answer:181530024_yesretard.JPG.671b34ec2180385bce4107c913445abc.JPG If you want to discuss or so just type a comment or idk. I think "Being Rude" and "Going too far" came from only 1 text I typed. But Maurice saied "Stop being rude" in the Staff Sit about me killing Kinqu which I didn't use any swear words or been disrespectful.

warn is probably valid (just by looking at the aftermath) and the logs youve shown have backed that up.  Also pinging staff 7 times doesnt help

insert all my fucking wls here so i can prove i have worth in life

 

Earlier today I was really horny, and I saw what I thought to be a blank dvd. I thought, DVDs have a tight hole, they might feel pretty good. So I put my soft pp into the hole of the DVD, and for a few seconds as I started getting harder, it felt pretty good, but then, once I was fully erect, it started being painful. My pp was stuck in the dvd, and I had to break it in half to get if out. It was then when I flipped the broken dvd over and realized that it was not a blank dvd, but a copy of the movie UP. Well guys, guess I fucked up.

So first in a conversion where more then 4 people involved in I ping the person which I am talking to, and it makes things clear. I will return back to "purged" or "cleansed" lunar (and already decided trying to turn back with making this thread) and I want to get these warns removed so I can actually apply to the groups and RP, and bla bla bla. And I generaly look things in bad way so people can know what can they do better, lets count your event. If you actually made an horde-ish things and made them killable, and a shaman or so unkillable but more passive and weaker it would be better. And other stuff I will tell but I don't want to change the topic. I don't remember Maurice explaining why he warned me, he was trying to avoid me before and he is still now.

I was "toxic" and "rude" since the start of the sit, or Maurice called it like that. I will show you the hole log I sended to nathan or so, only time I been "Rude" was the text I pointed out. And in this state of Server Research RP is non existent, when it happens I try to join it with Jack Wasza, I was annoyed since I missed an RP. Sit was pointless if Kinqu or I had evidence the result won't change thats why I request to be returned several times. And informing a T-Mod shouldn't be an issue on my opinion and you raise their sit counter as well, thats why I got confused if Norra knew that why did he made us stay in a sit for 10 minutes. If you wanna discuss more DM's.

Maurice or Hierarchy warning me doesn't matter anything. If they weren't staff I would understand, but they are they still need to claim sits if they are free and staff rules goes for them too. And you are giving an opinion without reading the main evidence doesn't seem like a smart move to me, but it is your opinion.

A: You were pressuring new staff members which is just inacceptable behvaiour.

B: The reason you actually got warned is that you repeatly called staff again, while being told no multiple times( kinda convinent to exclude the part which actually resulted in the warning ).

And it is not your job as a user to teach a tmod, and you certainlly wouldn't do it by starting with "Hey you wasted my time" , thats not helpful thats just rude.

Idk why you think it was even a good idea to create this thread, the simple fact I told you to stop multiple times before giving you the warning is more then enought to make the warn valid, you called staff like 5 times, being told no everytime.

You even continued after being warned if I rember right, where I specificly told you if you want to dispute it to go to forum, but you still called staff.

(Also I think you were uncooperative during the sit,being the reason why it took so long, which makes this even worse)

I basiclly never give out DTS/Wasting staff time warns,cus I don't really think its so much of an issue, but you actually managed to go to a point where I needed to do it.

The thing you don't understand is, if me or him had evidence of the action it wouldn't resulted it anything. I answered the question "do you have evidence" but kinqu didn't. Like I saied even if we provided Norra with evidence sit will not end with any warning. And should I just reported him to a Hierarchy? Trial peroid exists to make the people learn, if you don't want players to state it. I called staff 3 Times 1 for telling Norra about this, 1 for asking why did I get warned 1 for the discuss the warn and in last 2 you warned me. AFTER warning me the last time you PM'd me to go to the Forums. Kinqu was the reason sit took so long, I explained my side told I didn't had evidence. And as you can see I never use swore disrespected a staff, I been disrespectfull Once and I showed it and explained it and you warned me TWICE for DTS and "Going too Far". + You are the one popping out Hostile in the Sit even I saied "hi maurice", and it seemed questionable to me if Norra knew it why did he make the sit like 10 minutes
