Immature RP Ban Appeal

[SickSonicXXX]

Link to the source of punishment (report/post):

Why the verdict is not fair:

I was running to another town with an actual friend (in real life) and in game, and I direct chatted to him via text because of something we were talking about and moments after I was banned. I was no where near any other person (as far as I know) that could have read my comment to my friend. I just found it strange to be banned following the comment and it "never" being lifted.

Additional statements/comments explaining your point of view:

Basically, If the comment didn't affect other players role playing and the character/person I was with had consent to this I find it strange that I was banned for writing it. Even though as role play, I suppose I figured my character could have some humor and not be serious all the time (that's just my view)

What would you like to achieve with this appeal

Honestly just getting back to playing the RP with my friend and enjoying the rest of my day.

What could you have done better?:

I understand the rules that text communications outside of character is strictly prohibited and I admit that I was careless but openly I admit it didn't seem like such a big deal considering I was with a friend who I know and it didn't affect anyone else. If this were to be appealed then great, if not fine. However knowing this is a big deal I won't be making such comments again.

Hello, 

Multiple members of staff have reviewed your ban appeal, and have come to the conclusion that you will be reprimanded harshly, but ultimately awarded a second chance to prove yourself in the community. 

Allow us to refresh your memory on the exact chat log that resulted in your permanent ban:

23:22:24 | (Direct) Logan Grey: *no reason boner*

Please note that this chat log was directly taken from your interaction with your friend. You use the explanation that the two of you were by yourselves, but there is no way for you to know that with absolute certainty. While you are in the DayZRP servers, you are required to be in character at all times. We also expect a level of maturity from all community members, as the rules clearly state:

The situation in which you were banned for falls under "immature role play" and therefore contradicts the DayZRP rules. 

You state in your appeal, "I figured my character could have some humor and not be serious all the time"  however, DayZRP is a serious role play community, and therefore all actions you type into direct chat will be taken seriously. Typing that action into the direct chat was not a way for your character to "have some humor", as it was your character physically doing as such. 

Due to the severity of the action, we will be aggravating your punishment and revoking your whitelist, meaning you will have to re-take the test in order to play on our servers once more. We hope you understand the severity of the punishment, and know that we are being lenient as it was only the one line of text. 

Please note that continuing this immature behaviour on the DayZRP servers will result in a permanent ban.

Appeal Accepted. 10 day ban + 15 warning points issued.
