Unban Request (RUSTDOUG)

**RustDoug** · 01-05-11, 03:12 PM

Dear registered TPG administration staff,

1. I do believe I got banned for disagreeing with the admins and later naming them “gay”. I guess I wanted to retaliate against the admins for slaying me and my teammates.

2. I am unsure of the server I was playing on as both TPG servers at the time disallowed AWPs and AUTOs due to the latest patch. So this was about 2 or 1 days before the New Year. I hate to get on the wrong side of any admin and accuse them of banning me (which was completely appropriate for my actions) but I do believe it was SmokenSheriff or Iravedic0 (again, my apologies if I am incorrect). My ID is STEAM_0:0:33559895

3. “We're not asking for an apology, unless you got banned for being a real jerk, which we typically don't do.”
- …bigdog…

Since I was a jerk, I will be apologising my actions. I should have been more clear and precise when I explained why I was not with my teammates. Instead I became angry and just flamed on the admin, and I apologize and am sincerely sorry. Calling ANYONE “gay” is extremely offensive to anyone and offensive against the gay community.

I have understood what I have done I do believe I deserved the ban but I also believe I deserve a second chance. I believe I am a good team player, and I will always follow the call when I can. I say “when I can” because my laptop’s audio sometimes cuts out occasionally so I might miss the call. Not to mention, once on DE_Inferno, I got stuck together with a fellow terrorist while rushing out of spawn. He and I where both paralyzed and I knew that if we were going to win the round we needed all the players if we got to take “banana”. So I proudly typed in my console “kill”. What happened next is irrelevant, but it goes to show I WILL put my teammates before myself.

4. I do realize I am now on the short list, and will be more aware of my actions. I have realized the people I have hurt during the course of my name-calling and have seen how childish I acted. I now know that I must give admins the respect I would give to a host at a party or ect. I now understand that I am just a player similar to how I am just a guest. The host has the full right to kick me out of their house just like like the admins have the right to ban me from their servers. I now know that I need to treat admins AND other players the way I want to be treated.

From,
RustDouglas

Sorry for the delay. Fair enough - I will get your vote started.

As to your sound cutting out, go with the group. You are a smart enough player to be able to read the call from what you see happening. If in doubt - hit your mic and ask for it to be repeated. If you don't have a mic I recommend you get one. It's not a requirement but is very helpful.

Thanks for the reply and advice.

As for the sound, I will ask for the call again if i get sound back and people are always kind enough to reply.My only issue is that my sound can go out for multiple rounds at a time. But your "follow the group always works". It should be fine as I have just installed a new sound card.
