Any info on why you were banned: My ban reason says "Disrespectful, argumentative, rude and not a nice person to have on the server". I have reasoning to prove this is actually not the case, and the ban was a part of something else.
Another admin told me i should post this appeal on the forums too, I have made one on the other website for this community.
Alright. This will be a read. But it is worth the read, as this is majorly a rollercoaster from start to finish.
I would be considered a "regular of GetSome #2". That doesn't mean much to anyone except probably me but it's worth just noting.
On the day i was banned in question i was banned for "a general not nice person on the server". To this I ask, what exactly did I do to get this ban? I was away from computer for 5-10 minutes, to which I come back, and i've been banned, permanently.
Now if i was to go back to earlier today, on GetSome Trade #2, the senior admin courpse was talking to me through IRC. I have a small snippit of the chat from the console;
https://gyazo.com/8b57351a9bccace8804737172d3a9d5acourpse was going off about how himself, and treble, another senior mod, were legitimately "working together"to find reasons to ban me. Courpse himself has said so plenty of times, and witnesses of Trade #2 can confirm.
The ban was placed by treble himself. Now when i got banned, someone who wishes to remain anonymous copy pasted chats from treble himself, as well as the fact he was a bit TOO happy about me being banned

https://gyazo.com/62822ec8a144fae7a38fb1b811a555cf More information that they were working together to try to ban me. This happened 3 hours before the actual ban.
Now a premise i have for treble disliking me occurred 2 days ago on the same server. Someone was complaining about buds dropping = economy dying blah blah blah. As someone who price suggests on bp.tf i decide to pitch in the facts I know. Treble decides to input his ideas which were, wrong to say the least. But i still decided to finish the convo when i felt it was going nowhere. Here is what happened in as best as I could explain it
https://gyazo.com/2111e231dc4cc30fcf4645a6eaecb8fc Yes I do come off as bit of an ass but hey, personal standpoints and all.
Generally this ban was nothing more than a senior admin's opinion of me.
This ban does also say that i'm "unpleasant on the server". I can definitely say that the only people to ever have problems with me on GetSome at a serious level was courpse and treble. And only them. While some might look down on me using such this term as it is thrown loosely around, I reckon this is actual a proper time for the usage of the phrase Admin Abuse. Because I was banned for nothing more than a personal opinion.
If it's possible you can even gather other regulars of Trade #2. They'll say that i'm not "unpleasant" on the server. Because as I repeat, the only people to ever have a problem with me were courpse and treble.
Another admin of GetSome had this to say, when i told him of courpse's interesting IRC chat with me
