Reason for ban: I was banned for mass mugging and fail mugging.
Length of ban: 1 Day Permanent
Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Dispute
Why should you be unbanned?
Let me start by acknowledging I fail mugged someone in a zone where an NPC could see us. This was an honest mistake on my part, and I’ve reviewed the rules to make sure it doesn’t happen again.
I’m appealing the ban because this was my first offense (no prior warnings or admin sits) and the punishment seems harsh for the mistake I commited. I've played consistently since I joined last week, created multiple characters, and even purchased donator status to show my commitment to the server. Despite that, I was banned for a day without any prior warnings or offenses. During the sit, I offered to return everything to the person I mugged, as I was unaware that the area was a no-mug zone. I wasn’t mass-mugging either and I was careful to wait over 15 minutes between each attempt.
I understand the all actions have consequences, but I feel that a one-day ban for this first-time mistake is excessive, especially when I’ve seen more severe offenses handled with verbal warnings. For example, last week I was in an admin sit with an officer that broke multiple rules to raid my property without cause (they just kicked my door down out of nowhere), and despite losing all my items and disputing the situation for hours, they were only given a warning. In my case, I made a genuine mistake, was sincere about it, and even offered to rectify it during the sit, yet received a ban with no previous warnings.
I respect the admin team’s work, and my goal isn’t to undermine the rules but to ask for reconsideration. I believe this situation could have been resolved with a warning, and I would assure you it wouldn't happen again.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
EDIT: After my 1 day ban was issued, I made an impulsive decision to try and rejoin the server on alternate accounts. I was frustrated and wanted to clarify the situation with my main account before logging off for the night, but I should have gone through the proper appeal process instead. I was immediately banned on my alts and my 1 day ban was updated to permanent on my main account.
I am deeply sorry for attempting to rejoin, and I just hope you can understand how I was feeling at the time. I genuinely love playing on this server and roleplaying as all my different characters. My intent was never to disrupt the roleplay experience for myself or others.
