Hey SM,

I've really been enjoying my daily battles on your server, it's pretty much the only server I play unless it's full. I tried to log in today to the limited archer server and discovered I was banned The last round I played yesterday I threw a heavy javelin into my
team-mate's skull in our spawn with 5 seconds left in anticipation of the obligatory post-round carnage. It would seem that this is an automatic ban.

So anyway if you feel it just to unban me I would love to continue "working" from home and playing on your server from here on the East side of the USA. If not that's cool, it's been fun playing with you guys!

Edit: sorry looks like I should have posted this in Bans and Ban Appeals

This problem is more and more common nowadays.
There is a carnage time. 5 seconds before it it's still Team Damage. It was not an automatic ban, an admin saw you and banned you.

This is the only way to stop people from going "bah, 5 seconds before the end is fine. Bah, so is 10. Bah 15 seconds before everyone knows it's ending. Bah, 30 seconds is not enought time to win the map anyway." etc.
If you attack a teammate before the carnage time, the normal rules apply.

You don't seem sorry at all too, that doesn't help.
Let's see what the admin who banned you has to say. If it was an emergency permaban that is going to be reduced. If it is a temp ban. Or if there is something else to add to this story.

Regardless of how this ends, respect the rules. They are there for a reason, not for messing with you.

Hey AsDeR,

Thanks for your reply. Yeah I can totally see what you mean about remorse, I just figured such rules were in place for clear TKers. No need to trouble you guys I respect the decision admin who banned me.

No need for the ban removal, I broke the rules. No hard feelings, it's been fun!

I left monkeyfiend a message on steam about monkeypox and it was me that banned you. I was concentrating on something when you started to attack me and i didn't even notice the round was virtually over so i quickly made the ban thinking someone was randomly killing in spawn. When i realised how close to the end (people couldn't even do the objective any longer) i tried to undo the ban next match but it hadn't updated the list yet and i couldn't see your name. I'm going to unban you now monkeypox and i tried to add you on steam to explain but you didn't accept the invite.

edit: name still isn't showing in the list

I is in work ATM so can't check the configs. Although meowric can if he reads this. I suspect if the ban is still there it might be listed as a net id one (one of the ones we've had problems with recently) if so I'll remove it tonight
