How long have you been playing on our server(s): Since yesterday, 5/18/20

Have you ever been banned before (this includes other servers)? If so, tell us why: Never

If you have been banned, how many times? Never

So neither of these accounts ring a bell?

You were originally banned for cheating last year, and evaded your ban with two separate accounts (0ef and the one you're appealing right now). Lying in your appeal does not make it look good.

There was no "skirting the edges" because there were no edges to skirt. Now that the admins put a rule in, i'm willing to play by it.

This is exactly what skirting the edges is. You were riding on the thin line of "darn I might have to curb my racist inclinations if they start doing something."

We did something, and now you're trying to sell us on the fact that you're going to be this perfect, reformed person when there's a very large mountain of evidence that points to the conclusion that there is zero chance you have changed. If there really were no rules, wouldn't you say that you had the freedom of choice to at least put on the facade of a decent human being, but willingly chose to be a racist, anti-Semite, and a homophobe because you couldn't be bothered and/or you were literally incapable of doing so because of who you are as a person?

I don't believe a thing you've said in this thread about being changed.

Due to the age of the ban and the lack of evidence I'll go ahead and lift this.

Appeal accepted.

As an afterthought, I'm still going to keep your other account banned since it was used to try and evade your original ban. If it ends up being an issue then DM me on Discord.

Application accepted, welcome to the community 🙂

Are you still interested in joining? Our DayZ server has seen an increase in activity so I'm sure you could get your name out there by playing on DayZ.

Haven't visited the site in 4 months. Going to go ahead and deny this. Feel free to come back and apply again after playing on our servers.

Last visit to the site was in September of last year. I'm going to assume you're not interested in this anymore so I'm going to go ahead and deny this app.

This person was banned shortly after the thread was made so I'm just gonna lock this and move it.

I talked with the admin that originally banned you and unfortunately the evidence for your first ban got lost. What I banned you for this afternoon was avoiding your first ban.

Because of the lack of evidence for your first ban, but due to the fact that you tried to avoid it, I will be reducing the ban to 1 week. If you're found to be cheating again your chances of appealing will be much lower.

For reference, this is the account you were banned on for cheating:

https://steamcommunity.com/id/confirmederror/

I will be accepting this due to the age of the ban and the fact that you've likely thought about what you did, but if you are found to be cheating again then you will stay banned. Repeat offenders of cheating are not looked kindly upon.

I mean if you don't want to deal with it I understand. I can just go play another server or game, it's not a big deal to me.

Then I don't think there's any point in leaving this thread open for further discussion. Impersonating staff members or abusing a glitch in-game to access features only available to staff members is simply not acceptable in any capacity.

Appeal denied.

I'm also of the opinion that anyone who is not a law enforcement officer should be free to do what they want in a raid within the scope of the server's rules (kill people inside the house, steal any items, break any props, etc.)

If it's a police raid, officers should minimize the amount of damage and casualties inflicted on the person or group being raided. If someone has a weapon out during a police raid they are fair game to be shot at, but passive bystanders should be left alone to the best ability of the officers and cuffed. Only contraband should be seized and the cops can't recklessly destroy the setup of whoever is being raided with their battering rams.

Recreated the angle again in a sandbox environment on medium graphics, the black bars do become more transparent surprisingly but I'm still not convinced as to how you saw anything in the first place

Alyx model placed for reference to the approximate location of the player in the field

Angle from the same spot in the pool, Alyx is completely covered by the fog and probably 2 or 3 layers of brush

Same angle using the scope of the HL2 crossbow which is comparable to the 8x scope on a Raging Bull but again I still cannot see the model I placed

Same angle, standing up without the bar obscuring vision

I went back and placed around 10 more Alyx NPCs in different spots in the same area and I can still not see any of them through the black bar, but 3 of them would be at least faintly visible if I stood up and zoomed in.

The only other explanation I can think of for you seeing him is that your bushes didn't render so his model was contrasting clearly with the fog at that distance, but that doesn't explain why you sprayed the bushes after seeming to know where he was for the first couple of shots. As for aiming around the corner, I understand that a skilled FPS player would keep their crosshair along the edge of the corner after seeing someone run by, but what you did was move your crosshair past the corner, stick it to the player's model until you rounded the corner, and then attempted to shoot him.

Footsteps on the server are very loud

 

I don't know what kind of epic gamer headset you're using but I'm pretty sure you can't hear footsteps across an entire field.

Around 36 seconds you clearly latch onto a player's upper body with your crosshair and hold the lock until you're around the corner, but by then he was already shot by another person down the street. I'm also not sure what you would've seen at 22 seconds that would warrant you to start shooting at the same player in the field who is obscured by both the fog and the black bar in the window texture which is at eye level. I went to roughly the same spot you were at in the video and took a screenshot for reference:

We try to keep track of people to make sure that when we extend this kind of goodwill you don't go behind our backs and abuse it. Unfortunately you were found to be using a second account between last Saturday and now, which has since been banned along with your main account. I'm going to have to go ahead and deny this, you can still appeal in 2 weeks if you so wish.

Despite the evidence against you, you seem to be genuinely interested in reforming yourself. I'm willing to unban you on the 3rd of April, which will have been 1 week after your initial ban and will give you time to reinforce your thoughts about playing legitimately on the server again.

Here is the evidence that was recorded to warrant your ban:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4vlNm4bKsY

First off, you snap your aim to the person who is in hotel, and then after killing the player in this video, you snap to a dude who is clearly in a completely different area of the map based on the distance shown under his name. You also use bhop scripts to move through the parking lot and earlier you used them to move through the bunker in the military base, but this isn't shown in the video.

There’s a specific guide order? Does any of the quest require super high skill levels? But I’ll look into that! I’ll wait until I’m on pc, been on mobile.

Getting graceful is gonna want to make you kill yourself irl though, agility is such a boring skill to train. The other stuff is fun to do though, I actually enjoyed doing slayer as someone who usually keeps to skilling.

Maybe if you try hard enough you'll become grand wizard of the KKK someday buddy.

Appeal 110% denied and in fact I took the liberty of changing it to permanent. You can take a shot at being an alt-right basement dweller somewhere else.

Edit: You'd fit right in with these guys over on reddit: https://nm.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/

After discussing with staff we've decided to deny your appeal. You can come back in two weeks to re-appeal if you wish.

Ignorance does not absolve guilt.

If we attempt to take a screenshot multiple times of someone and we don't get anything back it's a strong sign that they're trying to hide something from us.

Yeah I'm down. I'm Gold 3 right now.

When someone is crouching they make no noise, but you know where both of the people in the first clip are at all times.
