In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.
At the time I had no idea why I was banned. I've found out since that my ban is likely because of 'ian' in the in game name I used which I then found out was Wilco's name. I understand if I intended this name to take the piss then fair enough - but to just assume anyone with a joking arma name with ian in it is a direct dig at himself, thats a bit unfair.
I was not even warned or asked about the name, nor was I told and I had to get a friend to join support and ask for me.
Smithers, who asked why I was banned, was told it was a 6 month ban, so I'm writing a perm appeal.
What have you been upto in the last 6 months+ ?
Just happened.
Why do you want to return ?
I want to return as I believe I was for the most part a good part of the community. I've never had a ban and I believe only 1 warning point for landing near a Greenzone garage, in the space of 13 months. I've been up to Surgeon in the NHS and most of my time in the community was in the police, a faction heavily based around RP which I think shows I'm a decent member here. The name was in no way directed at anyone. I don't have a reason to take a dig at Wilco so why would I out of nowhere?
Why should we unban you ?
I think I should be unbanned as firstly I don't think the ban is very justified in the first place, especially the way it was done. It was without anyone even trying to get a context of the name, so unless everybody with the name Ian gets banned I don't understand why I was.
the name 'big ian lad' was in no way directed at anyone in the community and not intended to be offensive. You can probably see the various Eastenders characters I have joined the server under as a joke with some friends, this time I was editing my name and thought of Ian beale and this is what I typed - I'm pretty sure I've joined as Ian Beale before as well.
My conduct on the server has never been pulled up on and I genuinely meant no harm when I used this name, if someone even asked about it they'd know that. In fact as I said I didn't even know Wilco's name was Ian, which I've now found out.
I've contributed a decent amount into the server including being in NHS, Police and UNMC for a short time.
I'm also hoping a few of the staff who could back that up will see this and understand, and help you understand this name was harmless.
Smithers joined support to ask what my ban was for as at the time we were both confused. He was told I was banned for my name and that the 'big' in the name was there to discriminate.
This is just about all I know at this point but the name was a joke intending to be Ian Beale. The name was not to discriminate anyone in the community and wasn't directed at anybody. It was just a mess around name about Ian Beale.
