Thread: Banned from CS:S Server

STEAM_0:1:4578226


#1. Why do you think you got banned?
I was playing before the servers crashed, came back on and make a stupid joke about crashing them (since they said it was because of a hacker and we were joking about me shotty hacking). I know it wasn't a super tasteful joke, but didn't expect a ban.

#2. What server were you on? What admin do you believe banned you? What admins were there playing?
No idea who banned me but I know Vafa was on, and a few others.

#3. Why should you be unbanned?
I always follow calls and get along with people, and I love everyone here, and would hate to be removed.

#4. A written statement that you will refrain from doing anything that will get you banned again.
I will never do anything like this again, if I had realized how serious everyone was about it, I would have never mentioned anything like this. Sorry again. :(

Ha ha, crashing servers is a joke... ha ha.

So you are saying you had nothing to do with the crashes?

Absolutely nothing. I don't even know how people do it.

So if I go pull the IP logs, your's won't have anything to do with causing the attacks?

Realize you are not only banned from the servers, you are banned by IP address. You dug yourself a deep hole and you're going to have to try and convince us really hard to get that removed.

I had nothing to do with the attacks, pull all the logs you need to. I was there playing, then server went down. Was on again with everyone else, made my stupid joke, and servers went down again. I honestly would never do something like this, and especially not here.

Roger that. I've looked through the logs and it wasn't you. I'll unban you, it should take effect more or less immediately. PM me if there are any problems.

In the future I would not suggest making jokes about hacking or the servers crashing. We tend to take it very, very seriously.

Also, understand, that after you got banned, we didn't have any more server crashes.

After review, we take this kind of chatter seriously. This is nothing that we find funny or joke about it.

I am going to turn this over to the CSS Admins and they will vote on whether to allow you back on the server or not.

Your results will be posted in this thread within around 3 days.

Alright, I'll be waiting for your verdict then. Thanks for the update.

Rawr, by vote of the CSS admins you have been unbanned. You will likely have to wait until the servers restart tomorrow morning.

In the future, refrain from making this kind of jokes. ;)
