In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.
Previous appeal - None as immediate 1.6.
I joined an alternative community and taken up a development role. I advised management prior to me joining the community since I understand this would prove controversial, and a 1.6 was issued for community protection. There was some accusations at the time regarding some members of the community I joined being toxic, which I have no information either way on whether this was rumour or true, but promised to look into it (which I did, will be explained below further). I accept given my level of access previously to this community and future role there would be a significant conflict of interests, and can understand that the ban was done as a precaution.
What have you been upto in the last 6 months+ ?
Other than real life commitments, primarily on my own Teamspeak talking to friends and playing a variety of other games such as Rainbow Six Siege, Planetary Annihilation, Battlefield etc. Generally enjoyed some time away and trying some alternative games.
Why do you want to return ?
There are many people on RPUK whom I have become acquainted with over the past few years of being in the community. While I maintain contact with some, I appreciate to continue talking properly without advertising my own Teamspeak I would need to proceed with the unban procedure to rejoin the Teamspeak. I must confess I don't intend to return as active as I used to be on the server, but would enjoy from time to time coming on for some unique situations, which I'm sure many can comment on my treasury RP scenarios.
Why should we unban you ?
My association with another community was short-lived after investigating some of the accusations further. I will spare the details of the whole endeavor, but would summarise it that I had no information at the time of joining of the activity in question. Post joining and my RPUK ban however (perhaps a few days?), I did see some of this behaviour occur myself and immediately let my intention be known to leave there as it violated the basic standards of decency for me to be part of the community. The delay between this and me submitting this unban appeal is only due to enjoying some time away to try new things, and haven't been interested in other communities given their character attacks I have seen myself in the past too.
In the past for RPUK, I have been part of the development and staff teams, and made many improvements to the function of whitelisted factions, gangs and functionality of the community. Many of the systems of automated backups, creating a reliable whitelisting system, exposing the API publicly for the community to make their own inventions etc, were all areas I fought pretty hard for. Many of them came with some controversy which is to be expected in any higher position in the community, but with the passage of time I am quite proud to see they are in use now and have matured further. I didn't make these for personal gain, but because I believe with the right tools, the community can make RPUK better themselves and engage in more varied ways than a development team can possibly have time for themselves.
I think despite me going elsewhere in looking of new challenges, I made clear I hope of no ill-will towards RPUK. My exit from here was not of the salty ex-member variety, and tried to keep things moderate and done in private with members of management. I was duly informed my actions of joining this alternative community had consequences which I accepted at the time.
I would like to argue my return will bring some more unique RP to the community, for which I was known for my quite unusual RP treasury procedures. I would not be active as I once was, but for the time to time I do return, hopefully it will bring some fun back to those who like the style I use. Furthermore, I don't intend to return to any post I previously held, but can still help around with various bits of tech and automation which arise.
