Sauerkraut Ban Appeal

[Sauerkraut]

Your Character or Steam Name: ★Actual Sauerkraut★

Your SteamID: STEAM_0:0:201255454

Your Discord ID#: actualsauerkraut9103

Reason for ban: Character Abuse | Item Transfer Middleman

Length of ban: 4 Days

Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): I'm making this appeal to fully understand the situation. I want to know what might have been transferred, or what fault I have in item transferring.

Why should you be unbanned?: I'm not particularly asking to be unbanned, I want to know the full gravity of the situation and better understand my faults with this scenario. The last time I've had a situation/ban like this was about 10 months ago. 

Additional Information (images, videos, etc): N/A

Hi, I was a banning admin involved with this case:

Here is a snippet of my response to Medinator's appeal, which is I suppose in a way the "primary" appeal: "The way that this reads to me is that the actions of your Altoviti character have directly benefited your SOS character. Which is textbook char abuse.

Having reviewed both the item logs, as well as the chat logs for the times surrounding your interactions, it becomes clear to me that at the very least, there was an intention of providing the Mint Suit (and other items) from your Altoviti to Sauerkraut, and having him repay you on your SOS char, which happened to be with another Mint Suit."

Essentially you have been banned for your role as a middleman for this semi-Item Transfer / Certain Char Abuse. You have some priors for similar rulebreaks, which landed you with a more equal ban, rather than a slightly more lenient one. Your character was *not* pk'ed - just to specify.

It is my opinion that you allowed Medinator to provide you with items from his defunct char, in exchange for gifts to his new SOS char. Hence you were banned.

Hopefully that clears things up a bit, good luck on the appeal!
