I was banned on the assumption that I tried to press F5 to avoid the dcamp script but miss-clicked F6.

Why should we unban you ?
My keyboard - https://gyazo.com/2c6ecf88a53de90bdfac475abf8b46d9

My Macro keys - https://gyazo.com/aea2c2abc31eac0f94ca6e609834ed47

If you have a gaming keyboard, you'll know that macro keys default to F keys if not assigned. https://gyazo.com/72b700ccca8e529ac96ef10b8d9a46d8

I can somewhat understand where the staff are coming from by accusing me of possibly trying to press F5 but missclicking but in all honesty, this was not the case. I did not know that there was a way around the d-camp script as seen by my reaction in the video. Two of the images above show where my macro keys are placed and what they are set/default to. The very last macro key defaults to F6 which was the cause of the animation/issue. I'm not entirely sure how I pressed it but I did. I've done it in the past with keys 3/4 which control my teamspeak. The video was posted for only humour purposes as we found it hilarious that I had my hands on my hips while watching my friend get rook banged.

It is disappointing that a ban was issued over something like this. Being a member here for almost 3 years with a fairly clean slate, I'd have expected to either be watched in game if there were any suspicions or to have been spoken to and explain my reasoning. I did not try to exploit, nor did I try to "avoid" any scripts and as said in my last appeal, I am not silly enough to incriminate myself in my own video.

I started of here as a lot of us did. A fresh hobo on the server, had my quadbike stolen from me on my first day, what did I do? Bought another one and started to ram him! Jokes aside, I learnt the rules, It's been nearly 3 years and I've managed to stick around and have many joyful moments. I'm not here to exploit or do anything along those lines. I'm here for my friends and my gang members and to have fun.

This was a tough one. At the time when the evidence was given to us we'd convinced ourselves of what we'd seen, we'd had multiple reports of people abusing the exploit and then this video popped up.

Upon reviewing your evidence I'll gladly give you the benefit of the doubt with the whole keyboard macro business. We will be keeping an eye to make sure this is the right decision!
