Reason for Ban Banned from Corporate Liaison - Constant soft self-antagging and problems with following the rules. Attempted to yet again steal ID's as the Liason, this time from the XO, to give himself all-access. Appeal on the forums, when you have gotten your act together. by Adminbot (Friendly Robot) on Tue, November 27th of 2018

Your appeal, including evidence (screenshots, etc) During this time-span I was a very awful player to the people around me, trying to take out anger I had in real life on innocent people instead of actually dealing with the problems and the causes in real life, I used space station 13 as a place to cope with it. This is why I have been banned from other servers.I realize now that it was plain stupid to deal with it this way as I had other ways of helping assuage my hatred such as actually trying to have fun rather than poking people until they burst or got fed up with me and got rid of me. I was told in the note to get my act together, and I believe I have. I have a bit of playtime in February and what I perceive to be a plentiful supply of time in March but this is to be fact checked, I also understand now that it is fine to disagree with a rule but not to deliberately or through ignorance break it. You don't have to be liked by people but you don't want to come off as an asshole to everyone you meet, that's like going into someone's house and criticizing them for their lifestyle because it doesn't conform to YOUR ideals. It's their dominion, they should be able to govern as they please, especially because it doesn't negatively effect actual happenings outside of there.
I believe that I have gone ample time without the role and I believe that I would be able to play it again and play the role properly, although I noticed that on the wiki, and from some old posts by Apophis in the archive that some of my notes for "Combat Liaisoning" are what I believe to be unjust. I never deployed with a gun, or tried to be a marine, I always did it to seize role-play opportunity or to get assets from the colony (Specifically seeds to grow in my garden ship-side). The wiki states that "The difference between a good Liaison and a regular Liaison is that a regular Liaison will go for a gun straight away while the good one will roleplay any situation out. Outside of visits to the colony which you may make at any time for any reason, it is best to stay away from extra gear and weaponry."
Outside of visits to the colony which you may make at any time for any reason.
This implies that I am allowed to do this, but suicide rushing into the aliens is not a good idea by any standard as it will most-likely result in death, and that qualifies as "wasting a role" which I admit is something I probably did by carrying out my actions. I will request further clarification for this excerpt from the wiki. I must also acknowledge the fact that staff members at times may waiver or bend the rules because its about the intention, not the rule as written. I must also refrain from being aggressive in tickets and always state the whole truth, instead of it partially.
My behavior was perceived as unacceptable by the authority on the server, it doesn't mean it IS but, for the sake of respect of their rules I must follow and carry out that behavior somewhere where it is acceptable, like on a lower role-play server so I do not disrupt the flow of their rounds and their role-play.
I understand that this appeal may be denied for a number of reasons, and please direct criticism at my statements for the next time I appeal if ever, in the event that this is denied, specifically what I should change or improve on, such as playtime, role-playing standard or something unstated that I missed.
My role-play at this time was also very low tier, being superficial at worst. I wish to show that I have improved in that time and try to create a story with the benevolent figures in the Company, through the fax machine and the crew of the ship. I understand not every round is going to be an apex for high role-play, but I will attempt to follow the rules even when angry with the outcome of the round, because ultimately in space station 13, there will be things you will not be able to control, sometimes you just die or something happens to you and you fail to do what YOU wanted. That doesn't mean give up, nor does it mean try harder, or something more like that "The institutions of this server are bullshit!" where you whine because you didn't get what you want. Don't be selfish, think of the other players, if it's something bad that effects the entire player-base like some unbalanced change, maybe you should petition for it to be changed, but beyond that you shouldn't go on a crusade against a player or staff member because you disagree with their policy. Try to negotiate or convince them that it was wrong outside of the current situation as poking someone who may already be angry won't end up well. Try poking a bear with a stick when it's near, my point exactly.
In conclusion, servers have their own purposes and there will be other servers you can play on to have funny shenanigans and others which want a more serious approach to encourage fun, it may not be fun for you but that doesn't mean you have to ruin their fun, nor does it mean you have to outdo them either. My behavior on this server was bad, and I mean bad. You had every reason to deny me then, maybe now, but in time I hope I can regain the trust of this community, staff team, and encourage and play out some really entertaining role-play. But I need your help to do that, and if it by the will of the staff team that this is denied, I will wait it out like any other player, I wont go off and spout obscenities, being stubborn, and not noticing the error in YOUR ways. Not theirs, as it is theirs, and if they have people who support them they should be able to do what their player-base think is best. My behavior to other people was wrong, and so was I, my shenanigans involving self-antagging won't be a problem as there are alternative roles to be antagonistic as, such as Predator which although is white-listed, doesn't seem to hard to achieve, survivors can also be hostile to the marines, and with ample role-play beyond just "I kill marines because I want to", such as being opposed to Weyland-Yutani as a survivor and believing the marines were sent to kill and silence you for what you discovered. If I want to be antagonist as Corporate-Liaison I can wait for the admins to run events where I am chosen so they can confirm that I can act like this without it being in direct violation of the rules, being a hard-ass and breaking some minor crimes isn't antagonistic, because not all people in real life break laws "just to be bad". When you have no authority it doesn't matter if you're a hard-ass, people don't have to listen to you, keep it in the confines of that character though, and try other characters. Nobody likes the same gimmick over and over.
You, and the other servers I have been banned from did not deserve to be punished for actions in my life that caused anger which I took on you to act like I'm a bad-ass, especially with All-access, you don't have real authority if you have all access and it just made me look stupid, and it got me arrested. You shouldn't act like an antagonist as CL, you can be a good guy, hard-ass, or a nuisance. Don't directly hinder the marines like I did, stealing the aCO's ID card which prevented them from playing out the round, which probably resulted in the aliens winning.
I am sorry for any in-convenience, disruption, or anything I have done to displease you which violated your standards, rules and regulations, staff or player. This is my fault and I wish to, in time, mend the broken bonds of trust with the players, staff team and other groups within the server.
I apologize for not having any evidence, or screenshots, but I am sure the logs on the server show my behavior as of late and playtime, which I hope are in my favor.
