Hello Town of Salem mods,
I am here to request an appeal for my account, BeansAndDip.
In the past months, I have gotten back into playing TOS daily, for the first time since elementary/middle school. In this process, I have managed to stir up some trouble by making some stupid choices in the game chats. In December, I used some vulgar language that I thought was funny, and resulted in numerous reports against me. My first ever offense was in 2017 or so. I believe this because, when I click on the report link, it says that it has been archived. Also, I had not came back to this game since 2017 or so.
My second offense was not my proudest moment. Somebody had gotten me wrongfully killed, and then they were rubbing it in, which made me (stupidly) very angry. I then proceeded to call them a slur, saying "2, your a little f4g". I deeply apologize for this. Since then, a slur has not touched my keyboard in hateful context.
In my third offense, I was annoying some townies by using laughing emojis. I said something, while trying to be funny, that came out very offensive and unfunny, which angered people to the point of reporting me.
I strongly believe that I deserved to have actions taken against me for my second and third offenses, as I said some very hateful things. However, I believe that I was wrongfully banned from my fourth offense. In the game in which I got banned, I was taking control of the town as a bodyguard. I found that 6 people had claimed town protective roles, and knew that it was incorrect. This prompted me to repeat (or spam) this message MANY times. As nobody told me to stop, I figured that I was not annoying anyone. In fact, my leadership prompted us to kill another evil. However, later in the game, I angered a player in whispers. This player had been clueless and constantly requested my role, so I told him, in a moment of anger, that he was a R*t*rd. He proceeded to tell me that he would get me banned for hate speech. With great confidence, I told him that I could not be banned for saying "R*t*rd" if it was only a one-time offense. After this, he realized that I was correct, as later on, I was reported for spam, instead of hate speech.
In conclusion, my main two arguments for being unbanned are: 1. My first offense was from years ago, and 2. My fourth offense was something that did not directly anger anyone, and in the long run, benefited our team.
Thank you very much TOS mods, I wish you the best.
Much love, BeansAndDip (ignore the incredibly stupid name, I made it in 5th grade)
