Unbann-age

[rygashi]

1) Rygashi

2) Triple Logging

3) I want to be unbanned because I've been playing Hunting Grounds of years, and most people can vouch for that, especially Rand. I've always loved playing Hunting grounds, I've gotten many of my friends to play it too, which has helped the community of HG grow even further than it was. Everything about hunting grounds is amazing and it was one of the first byond games I ever played.

4) I honestly do apologize for triple logging, Though it WAS unintentional. My friend was connecting through my neighbors wireless internet, though it had a low signal, and his laptop automatically switched to mine which had a better signal while he was in game. We never ment to cause harm to anyone or anyone's gameplay by doing so. So we are very sorry.

Other Keys involved: Stephprice (girlfriend's key), and... icuminyouface (Friends Key)

(Another note: It was IP banned.)

Thank You,

Sean, (Rygashi)

You were booted and warned before by Kain and Soren, but just ignored what they had to say. Then, after upon logging in again, it happens AGAIN. Then after being banned, you BAN-EVADED. Your awesome little glitch of bypassing the IP check, for 2 IPs max, was no accident. Especially, how the glitch worked. The glitch is now fixed but that isn't the point. The point is, you knew how the glitch worked, executed once more after being booted/warned, bypassed your ban, and then even proceeded to shift blame to someone else. The first two, you should know and from previous bannings, doesn't matter if it was your twin brother who did it, still responsible for your IP.

Your ban stays for at least a couple of weeks, depending on how your attitude is here on the forums. You being here so long, you should know all the rules by now. I also suggest that you secure your wireless connection to your internet so others can't use it. If you don't know how, call your ISP and/or modem/router maker to make sure you got it set up correctly.

[rygashi]

I can respect that.

But also Mahn, It honestly wasn't on purpose on the bypassing the IP Check.

Again, I'm sorry.

[Soren]

So why was it that you completely ignored what Kain and myself had to say? Particularly Kain since he tried a lot harder than I did to get your attention, and is also the one that booted the first key.

[rygashi]

I wasn't at my computer :/

[lordphoenix]

Quit making excuses and just accept your sentence.

[rygashi]

Umm, Bro... I really wasn't at my computer when it happened.

That'd be a pretty lame excuse if it weren't a fact. I'm sure I could come up with something better than that.

EDIT: And I did accept my "sentence"

Yet you're sitting here arguing every BH that posts in this thread in an attempt to get it lessened?

This thread should have ended with you saying you respected mahn's judgment and apologizing. Maybe with less "I'm really sorry and I mean that, HOWEVER yada yada yada".

[Divusmors]

Remember what Mahn said about getting unbanned. Your attitude on here will reflect how soon you are unbanned, and how easy or uneasy the admins will feel about you in future game playing.

Regardless of whether arguing or pleading your case/actions with another player, be you there or not, or a friend did log in or not, your best actions would be to take anything said with a grain of salt.

Probably odd coming from me for whatever reasons, but hey, I know it helps.

[rygashi]

I wasn't arguing with anyone LordPhoenix. I never once made an arguement. I told them the truth, that's it.

And don't get on me about "keeping the thread going" Soren asked me a simple question, I answered it. You came in here with NO REASON and said I lied. You brought it up, I did not. You're just making a fool of yourself.

And Divusmor, I know and thank you.

[Rand]

Yes, you HAVE been here for years, mate, which makes me wonder why in blazes you thought you could get away with loopholing the IP check system. There's always some sort of excuse involved. Way I see it, from everything posted, you ignored administration, and you were macroing. If you guys can't sit and just play the fucking game without enter-jamming, then frankly I can't care less than I do right now whatever may happen. Games are meant to be experienced, not automated.

verb, -gued, -gu⋅ing.
–verb (used without object)

–verb (used with object)
3. to state the reasons for or against: The lawyers argued the case.
4. to maintain in reasoning: to argue that the news report must be wrong.
5. to persuade, drive, etc., by reasoning: to argue someone out of a plan.

As a technicality, you are arguing just by defending yourself and saying you weren't arguing.

But.

And, on a side note.

And don't get on me about "keeping the thread going" Soren asked me a simple question, I answered it. You came in here with NO REASON and said I lied. You brought it up, I did not. You're just making a fool of yourself.

Nowhere did he say you lied. He said you were making excuses, which you were.

ex⋅cuse
   /v. ɪkˈskyuz; n. ɪkˈskyus/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [v. ik-skyooz; n. ik-skyoos] Show IPA Pronunciation
–noun
8. an explanation offered as a reason for being excused; a plea offered in extenuation of a fault or for release from an obligation, promise, etc.: His excuse for being late was unacceptable.
9. a ground or reason for excusing or being excused: Ignorance is no excuse.
10. the act of excusing someone or something.
11. a pretext or subterfuge: He uses his poor health as an excuse for evading all responsibility.
12. an inferior or inadequate specimen of something specified: That coward is barely an excuse for a man. Her latest effort is a poor excuse for a novel.

Look closely at number 8. an explanation offered as a reason for being excused; a plea offered in extenuation of a fault or for release from an obligation, promise, etc.. You were pleading to be excused from taking fault for whatever it is you fucking did, therefore you were making an excuse.

He didn't say you were making an excuse up, which would imply that it truly did not occur. He told you to stop making excuses, which without the word 'up', means that you need to grow the hell up and accept responsibility for what you did.

Edit: Oh, and also, don't try and use reverse psychology to flip the argument and display me as the bad guy.

That won't work.

[rygashi]

He said I argued with all brotherhood members, Sur Realis. Okay, I see that I did make AN (single, that you pointed out) against Mahn.

The others, were in defense to someone who had no business in coming in here and posting on this thread.

And you didn't point out that, the thread would have indeed ended with mine and Soren's post, unless another Brotherhood Member would have asked me a question or had posted something I thought I should respond to.

And on a final note, I took responsibility for Triple Logging. I never once tried to get my sentence lowered, or shortened in any way shape or form. The only thing I did was defend myself when another player comes to this thread and telling me what I should. I listened to Mahn, he said If my behavior on here was acceptable and whatnot I'd be unbanned in a few weeks or what have you. And in the next post, I accepted the fact.

And now, I'll make that two, BH that I argued with.

EDIT: Mahn can you lock this thread, please.

[U. Dye]

Thread lock inbound.

On a side note, Rygashi, I'd suggest a better tone no your next attempt. A couple of things you said (in particular, "Soren asked me a simple question, I answered it. You came in here with NO REASON and said I lied. You brought it up, I did not. You're just making a fool of yourself.") hurt your case. Course, like Mahn said, ban stays.

And also, it's a public forum (well, public for the community). Anyone here is free to post here if they wish. Although, in all fairness, I do agree that the others should probably have avoided poking you with their various sticks.
