Appeal to Bad Name Ban.

Were you banned? Have it appealed here.

Appeal to Bad Name Ban.

Postby Maikadar » Wed Feb 10, 2021 6:42 pm

IGN: Maikadar
I believe my offense was that i Jokingly made the name "I hate gays" After another player had named themselves "I love gays" in the Name Select Screen.
I didnt think I'd be permanently banned for it(?!), But i suppose i can see why it would anger players, I honestly have nothing against the LGBTQ community, and have participated in many marches.
It was an honest joke. I AM sorry!
I can promise never to make such deregatory names again, as well as while chatting in the game.

Greetings,

keep in mind that homophobia is not allowed in this game and that some "jokes" are not understood by just reading the report.

Alrighty, i did say i was sorry though. Can i get my immediate permanent ban lifted? Like not even a 1 week ban or anything, straight perma. A bit excessive if i do say so myself.
Please unban me, if i ever do stuff like this again, go ahead and ban me permanently without any chance to appeals? :|

Well, homophobia, racism, antisemitism etc. may result in a direct permanent ban, as the game has no place for those mindsets.

"Well, homophobia, racism, antisemitism etc. may result in a direct permanent ban, as the game has no place for those mindsets."
And i already said i was sorry and wouldn't do it again, you are providing no clear answers nor solutions, nor a final say to the appeal.

For a final verdict you will have to await an Admin reply. What Jerme is trying to explain is that being sorry doesn't nullify the rules, nor make the report less valid. And since only invalid reports are eligible for appeal, your chances of getting an appeal are slim to none.

The rules are pretty clear about things like homophobia.
No reply to your support ticket after 15 business days? PM me with your ticket number.

You may PM me for clarifications on appeal verdicts, but keep in mind the verdict will not change.

So i cant even play no more? Tried making an account and since its from steam it told me i cant. So what? You just ban people from playing the game permanently from an address over a joke? Thats a nice way to lose customers for good. Wew idk whos managing this company but they sure arent pulling the right decisions.

You can still play, but you have a banned account linked to your Steamaccount. You can still login with a new one, though.
The rules apply that homophobia is not allowed, same as racism and such variations.

I do not see a "joke" in that name of yours.

This mindset is exactly why you're banned and will stay that way.

Appeal Denied.
