Things to keep in mind when you start your request to be unbanned:
There are no apologies from any of us, so don't expect them. Banning is not something that all our admins have powers to do. Ban powers are reserved for admins that know the game, the server, and the players. Bans are also typically discussed and agreed upon by several admins secretly, so don't come in here thinking that only one admin is out to get you. Should you wish to be unbanned, here's some easy steps to get things started:
#1. Why do you think you got banned? Refrain from speaking like an idiot. Keep in mind that server admins and those who own servers typically aren't leet speaking dweebo's. Clearly, and calmly, tell us what you think you did to get yourself banned.
#2. What admin do you believe banned you? What admins were there playing? Our admin identities are typically kept secret, so just name as many players as you can think of. Maybe take a look at your psychostats
(CS:S or DoD:S) and see who you were killing at the time. Browse your screenshots. It's extremely helpful to us, as well, if you provide links to your player stats, such as in those mentioned above,
BF2stats, or
BF2142stats. BE SURE TO INCLUDE IT IN YOUR POST.
#3. Why should you be unbanned? We're not asking for an apology, unless you got banned for being a real jerk, which we typically don't do. A good answer would be "I should have been more clear in explaining how I made that kill, instead of just saying 'I'm wall hacking right now. Eat it, admin!'. In the future, I will keep in mind that this is not my server, and next time I am questioned as to the level of my skill and playing style, I will be more upfront with my explanations."
#4. A written statement that you will refrain from doing anything that will get you banned again. Keep in mind, you are now on the short list of people needing to be banned. Even a minor slip-up will get you back in the hole.
#5.
Failure to clearly address the above questions in number order will result in your post being locked and your unban request to go unprocessed.
#6. If your ban is sustained, you have will have to wait at least 30 days before any additional request to be "unbanned" can be accepted.
Texas ...TeamPlayers... is really trying to be a server/game place about fairness, working together, and being a team. Speak fairly and calmly to us, and expect to receive the same to you. In addition, if you feel we were so far out of line in our actions, be sure to also make a post in the
admin abuse forum.
Once the vote has begun to remove your ban, 3 days will be given to allow the admin population to give their input and submit their votes. Hence, your biggest goal here should be to present an argument that will get you votes, NOT take them away.
If you are not an admin, a banned player, or a relevant witness for either party, you have no business in this forum and are prohibited from posting.
This rule is harshly enforced.
Good luck.
