Har Mar Superstar

You're not sure why you were banned but you admit to using an anti-recoil script

The map is half water, which is basically unusable, especially with FA:S weapons. The other half is full of people camping on roofs, and the spawns make it so you're at a strong disadvantage most of the time. Another issue is there's really no cover. It makes the roof camping issue way worse, and makes gameplay feel more like a roulette than skill based. Chernarus was an example of the perfect map, and I feel that the server should go back to that or Evo City until this one is fixed and made proper for the game mode.

If you really want to keep me muted for 2 more weeks man, when I have done nothing, you just lost a loyal player. 

Dude... this makes you look uncool. -1.

Hey guys, not trying to rush or anything, but has there been a decision made? It's been almost a month and I'm curious.

Okay a thing I’d like to point out at least

 

with these random retards making accounts just to talk about shit acting like if we care 

Har has been pretty calm towards backlash in the appeal 

 

 

...also strange how theres people making accounts to voice their two cents for har even though I’ve never seen them once before and I doubt they played back during his time 

 

edit: p.s I still stand by on giving har one last chance with a tight leash 

I know Soma, as we use to play on the server together. However I don't know who lonelyman is

I honestly didn't even remember most of that. You're right that I did receive warnings, and to be completely honest I didn't care because I thought I would get away with it because of the whole no rule thing. The entire time I brought up no rules i was just trying to explain my thought process at the time, and am not trying to use it as an excuse, if you believe me at all. Honestly I'd just like to come back and play on the server because when i played in 2014 - 2015 I had a lot of fun and It was very enjoyable. However, when the staff decided to reopen it back and unban everyone, including well known cheaters and not make any rules I just couldn't take it seriously. Now that it seems you guys have everything in order for the most part, and the fact that there seems to be a solid player base it makes me want to give it a try again like I did before. If I didn't wish to respect the community and the rules then I could've gotten on a VPN on a different computer and played that way, however I'm trying my best to show that I am willing to abide by the rules and be as respectful as possible. I believe the worst case scenario from your perspective would be for me to go on and be rude to someone else again, and all you would have to do is ban me. I'm not a cheater, so it's not like you would have to reimburse any players for lost items. I don't know how else to prove that I won't be an issue to the server without actually being on it. 

I would also like to add that I do believe I have changed in the time that I've been banned. I do think that me trying to appeal instead of evading and being rude shows some kind of proof, however like I said before I have no real way to actually prove it unless i'm on the server.

This appeal has started to go off track. I want to point out since I've posted that there still is little to no actual intention of bettering yourself, and every staff member who has responded has given a few valid points towards their opinion, but a majority of your response has been overwhelmingly about the rules way back when. I distinctly remember telling you multiple times to stop, other admins telling me that you didn't deserve as many warnings as you did, and I can promise everyone who has interacted with me in game receives multiple warnings before a mute (which I've muted har mar many times before his ban) before any kind of temporary, much less permanent, action is taken. You were told many times that it was wrong and to stop, with temporary punishments issued nearly any time an admin was online for weeks. 

Your entire case is leaning hard on whether or not it was "allowed". When admins tell you it is not allowed and you do it anyways and then call hypocracy, that's when people start to take issue. As a staff member, I want what is ultimately best for the entire community. If I have to decide between letting a player with a known history of disrespect and extreme levels of toxicity play again because they think that it's been long enough and believe they should receive another opportunity to enjoy the server and risk a repeat situation where the rules can get constantly stepped around on "technicalities" or potentially preventing further damage to be caused using a bearucratic process with evidence and reason, in my personal opinion it's an easy decision to make.

I remember this well. I told you to stop because you weren't making the game enjoyable for anyone else but yourself. 

As you can see, you were warned, kicked, told to relax and stop harassing, muted, temp banned, and then banned. You cannot say you didn't know better or that it was unreasonable because of the rules at the time. You were well aware way in advance that it was ridiculous and inappropriate. You were one of the only people we've had multiple people report for harassment. You got so many chances, and that's what I think is being missed here.

I'm not interested in reading that there were no rules at the time again, I want a valid reason why you think you should come back.

I'm a good staff member, your issue with me is how I've treated you, which is less my skills as an admin but rather my personality, which is fair and I couldn't care less what most people think of me apart from peatreat. This should be my last comment here now since this is a ban appeal for you, not my staff report.

As an admin you represent the staff team, as I mentioned before. I don't care about your personality, but when you act like a child on the forums, which everyone can read, it's a bad look for the server. If you truly believe you're a good staff member then take into consideration that what you do doesn't just effect you, but the entire community itself. Anyways I agree, this should go back to focusing on the ban appeal.

7 minutes ago, George said:

That's because I don't respect you, you don't deserve any respect the other staff have showed you. The community is called "Can't Stand Idiots", you were too dimwitted to even discreetly be toxic, instead you jumped in head first and are now upset when someone speaks to you in a way you don't like. This is a gmodz community I'm not going to act like we're running a business here.

There were no rules against it, so why would I try to hide it? Also, if you read what I posted, I blatantly said I do not expect admins to act professional on a video game server. I'm not really upset, just baffled as to how someone like you is able to represent the staff team, who has almost always been good at their job.

14 minutes ago, George said:

Yet you are only sorry because the server is active, you never made these apologies a year ago or even showed an ounce of remorse. I also find it funny how you think you can judge how I act towards you after you spent your time calling people the gamer word.

Why would you reasonably expect someone to try to make amends with a server that has no player base? That seems absurd at best and stupid at worst. I can judge how you act as a staff member because as one you represent CSI, and unfortunately you're doing a remarkably abhorrent job at representing it. While I don't expect an admin to act professional on a video game server of all places, I at least expect to be treated with a little respect, which every admin, a council member, and even regular players have done except for you. Take a few tips from the admins who actually know what they're doing and i'm sure you'd be good at your role.

Here's a serious response.

I don't believe I have made the staff team bad, and the only players I've "driven away" are ones who had no intention of playing (at least by the rules), such as you and your friends. Now I'm going to give a proper response instead of the one from my phone in bed. Yes, my attitude is pretty bad, but I only direct it towards people who are deserving of it, such as you in this case. In no way shape or form would I direct it towards a player abiding by the rules and getting along with other people, rather than calling them many derogatory slurs. Granted, you haven't done that in this appeal, but you did it plenty in the past with your only excuse being that it wasn't punishable back then, and therefore it's alright.

Har Mar is an idiot at heart, he called people everything under the sun just for the fun of it, no other reason. But now that the server has an active player base he wants to play again, he doesn't deserve to do so. People who followed the rules and treat other players well, deserve that privilege to continue playing without hindrance. I'm British, I like making fun of people. I don't make fun of random people though because I'm an Administrator for CSi, and therefore I only target "idiots", people who deserve to be treated as such because they don't follow the rules, especially people like Har who use every slur in his little book simply because it made him giggle.

I don't really know what you said, but me calling someone a "illiterate baboon" and an "ape" (referring to their intelligence of course) I imagine isn't comparable to what made you kicked from the community, but I can say for sure in comparison to Har, I am nowhere near his level.

I do in fact love banning rule breakers, I won't lie! The guy who said he would demote me in an instance has clearly never been in any management position, not to mention that is a clear bias, since I imagine he has no view on the situation at hand, just what you painted for him, as if it even matters.

You make the staff team look terrible simply by you acting like a complete child every time you post in this thread. You picking and choosing who you act like a child to doesn't help you, and would turn many people off regardless of what I did in the past. Just because you get a kick out of it doesn't mean it's right, as I've stated before. You and other admins seem to have this misunderstanding that I said what I did was "alright". I've said time and again, I did it because there wasn't a rule against it, yes. However, I fully admit, like I have many other times in this thread, that it was not "alright" and still isn't.

Lmao, if I'm to get punished for being rude to a toxic retard like you so be it.

Shit I better bucker up

Also I said "illiterate baboon", which I suppose applies to this guy adding his unbiased 2 cents

 

It's just my sense of humour, calling idiots what they are instead of treating them like they had a little slip up saying racist and homophobic shit just because they can.

You guys need to lose that extra chromosome and go back to whatever nook you clambered out of.

I'm pretty sure your attitude has driven away many more players than I ever have. You've contributed nothing to this thread except making the staff team look bad.

This isn't an evaluation of George its an evaluation of yourself. I think its in your best interest to not attack the people who control rather or not you are going to be unbanned. It's pretty obvious your attitude has not changed, it's more like you felt like you had the right to be unbanned because "it wasn't against the rules". I don't think you are changed whatsoever. Just because you are now interested in the server doesn't mean you are entitled to an unban. What you did was wrong, there is a difference between saying slurs out of context without any reasoning behind it. In your case you directed it towards players and it had obvious intent behind it. If it were up to me I would keep you banned.

I don't see how you could know if my attitude has changed or not, all I said was that I did what I did at the time because there were no rules against it.I do not feel entitled at all, and If I did don't you think i'd just be demanding to be unbanned, rather than asking? I said many times that what I did was wrong and that I apologize for it. Could you clear up what makes you think that I have not changed at all? Because from what I wrote I don't see how I gave any indication of it being otherwise.

Personally, I thought I used to be in the wrong here. I thought about coming back to the community and "bettering" myself, but I realized after looking at this appeal I am glad I fucked off/told to fuck off. The guy who is appealing, whether he is sorry which I highly doubt, showed a form of politeness in the appeal. On the other hand, I looked at what George said and I don't understand how this guy is an admin the way he talks. The fact when I was here nobody took into consideration this behavior from upper management when I was around is atrocious. It is appalling, but this isn't the first time I heard complaints about CSi's community and management. But the old, "If you don't like it, then fucking leave" will be told to me. Of course. I said things that were awful before, but this is just as bad if not worse than what I said. This is unprofessional.

While this doesn't have anything to do with my appeal, I do agree that George was being extremely rude for no real apparent reason. Especially so when every other Admin has taken the time to be polite with me even though they seem to be against me being unbanned. I really don't appreciate his attitude, and he should be looked at in terms of him keeping staff in my opinion.

who asked 

 

 

anywho you literally did nothing to help the guys appealing case 

 

and this guy has been banned previously multiple times for the same actions

just because the staff doesn’t agree with him being unbanned doesn’t make them power hungry  

 

 

From what I remember, I've actually only been banned one time, which is the ban I am appealing.

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.

I took it as them saying I was trying to skirt the rules when there weren't any. At the time I thought it would be more fun to do and say whatever I wanted, because no other server allowed that. Was it wrong? Yes, and I apologize for it. As stated I have no further intentions of doing the same again.

I wasn't going to comment on this since Rolchax had practically said everything that needed to be said, plus I never had any personal interactions with Har, but here I am.

Oh, you're willing to play by it now? Shit that really sounds like you've really changed!

Literally 2 sentences prior you showed why you're unsympathetic you absolute ape. You think you did nothing wrong since there was nothing to do wrong, you say you've "changed", but you haven't, you're just willing to suppress yourself for the unban. You said you were at fault for "being rude" to someone who "antagonised" you, not for all the other shit you said, since "wasn't even breaking any rules considering there wasn't a rule for what I did", which again, shows how truly sympathetic you are and that you've changed from the man you use to be, to a beacon of light and prosperity!

Yeah this ban should remain, I'd even push for some kind community ban on this illiterate baboon.

I mean, like I said, why should you expect someone to play by a rule that doesn't exist? I thought I made it pretty clear that in the context of server rules i didn't do anything wrong, but if you want to bring it outside of the server rules, I did do wrong, as I admitted. Just because you can't read doesn't mean you should insult someone, it makes you look bad as a "moderator".

I'm not gonna go much further into this with you past this post, but I do want it to be clear that you did break what most would probably consider our most important rule that has never changed:

Don't be an idiot.

I personally dislike the idea of considering unbanning you because "ackchyually" you didn't break a written list of rules because you would skirt the edges of them and blatantly ignore what admins told you to do to the point you got banned permanently in the first place. You tried to use slurs and toxicity only over voice and when admins weren't online to avoid punishment. That's not something that a person who isn't doing any wrong would do.

You didn't care when you got banned ages ago, you aren't even regretful and defended what you did by saying you didn't break rules, and even still you're completely unsymapthetic towards everyone else and the administration that have received countless reports of harassment and blatant toxicity. That's not a risk I want to expose this community to again, so that's why I'm going to vote no.

Why would me caring if I got banned ages ago matter when I care now? I did what I did because there was no rule against what I was doing. It's as simple as that. 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. I have absolutely no clue how that is hard for you to understand. I don't know where you get off saying that I am "unsympathetic", when I've given no indication of that at all. In fact in my app I said I am changed and that it was my fault for what I did entirely, and that I am changed. How is me admitting that I am at fault not sympathetic?

The key words in your appeal are "as i see it actually has players again"

You don't magically change attitudes because you saw the numbers going up. I've seen plenty of players do the same thing: Aimbot as a prime example. You aren't magically exhonerated from your past actions because you wrote a shoddy 2 sentence minimal effort appeal, and I'm honestly surprised that it's being considered somewhat seriously.

Why would I want to play on a dead server? I said i'd like to play it now that it has players. Is that hard to understand? I know I'm not "exhonerated", but to be fair at the time I wasn't even breaking any rules considering there wasn't a rule for what I did. My point is is that I won't do it again, as I'm not interested in breaking rules.
