Since I’m being dragged into this now, I need to explain why I was justified in giving you your previous teamban for accidental MFK, and the circumstances around the ban extend, which requires me giving the pretty much full story.
It was a round on jb_volcano that started off fine, with the warden telling all REDs to go on top of the Rick May statue by cells. A BLU Demoman then shot a grenade (with intention BTW) onto the group of REDs on the statue and almost every RED is killed and quickly disconnected (although I did nab him later). I respawned everyone, and the warden instructs all respawned REDs to head back on top of the Rick May statue; yes but no then proceeds to, out of some sort of confusion, kill approximately 5 or 6 REDs heading back.
Even if he was confused, there are three main reasons as to why I think I was justified in giving him the guardban:
- An automated message that says “[ADMIN] Respawned all players” in white text would’ve appeared in the chat, and he could’ve looked in the chat to see the context of people being in their cells.
- About 75-80% of the REDs alive at the time were killed and thus respawned. Having that many REDs should’ve given him a hint about the respawn.
- Finally, with the whole “warden giving orders to kill those in cells” order, although I can’t remember the exact circumstances there now, the two scenarios that probably happened were either he gave these orders BEFORE the MFK occurred, or he was referring to full-on AFKs and not the REDs I respawned. I highly HIGHLY doubt he ordered everyone in cells to be killed after I respawned as he knew I had respawned them.
That teamban has since expired. Then this teamban by Banana happened.
A couple hours ago this evening I joined on and yes but no was complaining about his teamban and how he made an appeal and wanted Banana to respond, and me and Magglet were telling him he needs to wait until Banana responds and his appeal reaches a verdict. I tell Magglet privately about his previous teamban and he adjusts it due to stacking.
TL;DR I teamban yes and no for accidental MFK, it expires, he gets another teamban by Banana a week later that’s initially only 120, makes an appeal, Magglet adjusts the teamban to perma, I get dragged into the appeal.
Ultimately, Semicolon Backslash will have the final say.
