Ban appeal: Name

Postby sodaholic22 » Mon Aug 15, 2022 8:35 am

Hello,

I was banned for having the in-game name "fukhangjews" - I selected this name because a user in the lobby had the name "HangJews88" and I was very offended by this. You can see in the trial report here (https://blankmediagames.com/Trial/viewR ... id=3754682) that this user was spamming extremely offensive and racist comments in the lobby and then in game, yet I was penalised for wanting to express, through my in-game name, that this guy is truly a nasty bigoted troll. While I understand that naming myself this was not the best move, as you can't expect moderators to be aware of the context and intricacies of each game, I belive this appeal will highlight that I do not deserve this ban and my choice was based a personal, visceral reaction. It will not happen again.

Regards.

Greetings,

I see the context in this report and do think that this report should be turned into a suspension instead for attacking an other player with their name, instead of the more antisemitc thing.
