notaspy 0 #1 Posted June 29, 2012 STEAM_0:1:18888212 A month or two ago, I paid five dollars for admin privileges on the LotusClan servers. I chose my two favorite servers, and needless to say, I acted like a real ass. I was votekicking people, harassing people, and all in all, I'm ashamed of my stupidity. Needless to say, I was permanently banned for donor abuse. I made a thread in the past claiming it was my "roommate", but I just feel like a complete idiot, and everyone saw that there was no roommate. I'm just extremely sorry for what I did, and I am ashamed of it too. What I did was very immature, and if I was unbanned, I would never act that stupid again. Thank you.

Nano 7,892 #2 Posted June 29, 2012 Previous Request: http://forums.gaming...post__p__123461 I say we be fair about this and let Gotcha handle it again when he comes back. That's reasonable since he made the decision the first time. He's on vacation though, so it might be a little bit before he gets to it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

notaspy 0 #5 Posted June 30, 2012 I dunno... I promise never to act that idiotic again. TF2 is a game, and pissing off everyone else isn't very nice. People play the game to relax after a lot of work, and what I did wasn't very relaxing at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DEATH STRIKE 573 #6 Posted June 30, 2012 Not like we are the only servers out there. One less troll is good in my book. But who knows maybe people can change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

notaspy 0 #8 Posted July 2, 2012 Yes, people can change! Yup. I've changed. The other Dustbowl servers have a poor community, or they lag a lot. I should have listened to the old saying, "Don't shit where you eat". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
notaspy 0 #9 Posted July 3, 2012 You guys are missing something here: people don't change in a month. Especially people with the audacity to come here saying, "it wasn't me!" First you abuse your donor privileges, then come here and blatantly lie about it. I am sure you understand, this makes you look extremely bad in our eyes. Therefore I am sure you understand that I am very skeptical about the whole "I've changed" bit. If you can show how you've changed, then perhaps I will consider this request. How can I show that I have changed? I no longer go around trolling servers and being a complete dick to people. And I'm sorry for what I first said when I came here, and it was idiotic as all hell. A lot of stuff has happened in the last month of my life, and I've realized trolling doesn't help anyone or anything. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Cactus 4,948 #12 Posted July 4, 2012 Intense emotions here. Quite heartwarming. To be fair, abusing your donator powers is enough to get you banned. Trying to play us by lying is a big "fuck you" to the admins. Afro is being more generous than I would be by even considering unbanning you. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mars 288 #13 Posted July 5, 2012 Maybe let him play but without donor privileges? It's possible he made some pals, and they only play on Lotus servers. So it is understandable that he wants to be back. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pockets 1,841 #15 Posted July 5, 2012 He sounds sincere. I really doubt that he would be so adamant about getting unbanned just to go back to trolling lotus servers. I think you guys can be a bit cruel in these threads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nano 7,892 #16 Posted July 5, 2012 I'm not going to pretend I'm being nice. Actions have consequences in life. If you don't like the consequence, you shouldn't have done the action. Feeling remorseful is a natural part of the process, but just because you feel remorse doesn't mean that the consequence should change. To me it doesn't matter if he's sincere or not. He did something worthy of a permenant ban, and I see nothing here that changes the facts of why that decision was made, and thus in my opinion it should stand. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pockets 1,841 #17 Posted July 5, 2012 Who said you needed to pretend to be nice? Anyways, this kind of "he was banned, quick! All aboard the 'fuck this guy' bandwagon" mentality is the problem. Actions indeed have consequences, but I'm unconvinced that he did do something that deserved a permanent ban in the first place. I know compassion isn't the most popular outlook to have on these forums, but I feel like someone needs to fill the gap. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Cactus 4,948 #21 Posted July 5, 2012 The sign of a true member wanting higher ranks. Taking open discussion behind closed doors. I was an admin before you even applied for recruit status. This has nothing to do with rank, and everything to do with ensuring that ban discussions are conducted effectively by those who will make the final decisions.
