GMAK Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Link to the source of punishment (report/post): https://www.dayzrp.com/profile/15141-gmak/warnings/5794/ Why the verdict is not fair: It was posted in a media thread that has multiple posts that are only a gif or image reacting to the media posted, I did the same yet I received points for it. Also it was noted in the warning to not post in an already heated thread yet I only made I joke trying to deescalate the situation to my friend and group member who was at the time 'widin' at needed to be told to chill. Additional statements/comments explaining your point of view: Mate of mine called @Guigsy had a bit of a moment and went off a lil wild in a media thread, its seemed a bit brazy to me so I posted the following image Spoiler the image is not flaming anyone or is it posted with ill intent to anyone, its was posted as a light-hearted joke to deescalate a hot topic at the time. As for it being a unnecessary post, the media thread in question has multiple posts in it with people responding with gifs or images and nothing else in the post, for me the get points for unnecessary posts feels a bit unfair. What would you like to achieve with this appeal: I would like my points removed so that I could be back at a sparkly clean 0 points What could you have done better?: Maybe I could of added more context to my post but I feel like the meme was good on its own as a fun lil joke to calm everyone down.

Legend Peril Posted June 1, 2020 Legend Share Posted June 1, 2020 Hello @GMAK, A separate team of staff has reviewed your appeal and come to the conclusion of denial. Your post was just about as textbook as a violation of rule 1.5, as it was literally just a reply, "containing only pictures, gifs or other unrelated media." We're aware that the image wasn't inflammatory in nature or posted with ill-intent, but the correct course of action to defuse a situation would be to contact staff, not post memes in a thread. However, regardless of intent or circumstances, this post was quite literally the rule-dictionary definition of unnecessary. We'd also like to remind you that you're always welcome to report any forum post you thing violates our rules for the staff team to review. With that said, Appeal denied. Points remain.
