Your appeal, including evidence (screenshots, etc) Okay-- I want to preface this by saying that I included more relevant notes in the ban reason. This was a "straw that broke the camel's back" situation, and though the final incident was more than a straw, I feel that it wouldn't be fair to not include them. On to the appeal: I had been a very active and well-participating squad leader, almost every other round. It has been a long time since the string of incidents and I've had a lot of time to reflect on my actions. I've actively played for nearly two months since that, and the well-deserved job ban has not hurt my love of CM. I've been able to see what a good squad leader looks like, and I have been in interactions with MP players that did not end in any sort of issue. In fact, the one time in this span I did take issue, I made sure to observe all mutiny rules and A-help beforehand, and when I was told not to, I took the staff member's decision well and was not argumentative. As for each individual incident: the unauthorized mutiny was after the commanding officer of the round pinned the operation's failure on me as a squad lead. It was the incorrect thing to do -- an absurd decision, made in anger. As for the shooting of the MP, I had been brigged for thirty-plus minutes and the player provoked me in-character, which I did not seperate from out-of-character thinking. I became angry and shot him, and yes, I was unapologetic due to my anger. As said before, I can now understand that some players will do such things in an attempt to get on my nerves. Both of these incidents were absurd decision-making on my part, and poor respect for the rules. Over the past couple of months, I have gained a better understanding and respect for the server's rules, and have observed them as necessary. Point being that I really enjoyed playing squad leader, and I'd appreciate a second chance with a probationary period, if possible. Thank you for reading.
