Ban Appeal

Well I’m banned after only downloading ace of spades 24 hours ago. Why? Corrupt admin whoes ingame tag is machinegunfunk. My in game name is Hapa. Machinegunfunk was aimbotting on the aloha babel 0.75v. It was close to impossible to spawn without getting head shotted. I spam fired in his general direction when he was killing my other just spawned teammates and I killed him as my second kill of the game. Why I was banned I have no idea and I don’t expect to be unbanned as my admin was a hacker. But I would rather just tell what happened and stay banned than lie and get unbanned.

You didn’t exactly fill out the format, but I suppose it doesn’t matter cause everything’s here.

Anyway, hi, I’m the guy that banned you, and I am not Machinegunfunk for the record. I had checked Machinegunfunk for hacks, and he wasn’t cheating, and I checked you for hacks because you suddenly became very good very fast, and it turned out that you were cheating. My assumption is that you got frustrated with someone who you assumed was cheating, and downloaded hacks to get back at him.

What do you have to say about this?

I tried votekicking machinegunfunk multiple times and it wouldn’t let me. Also I only had 2 kills and both were on machinegun. I won’t lie I had an esp so I knew where machine gun was so I could kill him. Also if I ever get unbanned is there anyway for me to get admin privileges so I can ban them? My esp showed name tags and player location that’s all.

First of all, machinegunfunk is an admin who, contrary to your beliefs, does not cheat. Second, you may not become an admin to ban him, especially since you cheated. Third, ESP is not something you say “that’s all,” you cheated and you seem to think it was alright. Even if he was cheating, that doesn’t call for you to cheat back. The same way you hated the idea that someone was cheating on the enemy team (which he wasn’t) is the same way everybody else felt when you used ESP.

Except I only killed machinegun thats why I used that esp so I wouldn’t kill anyone else and machinegun actually said that he was hacking when someone called him out.

Again, this doesn’t justify your reasoning to cheat. Why not report him here? Why not hop into the IRC and ask for help? You could’ve also used the in-game /admin command to get other admins in the game. Fighting fire with fire isn’t a valid excuse for your actions.

If the “cheating” dosen’t effect or disrupt anyone elses gameplay but actually improves it for the majority of the ingame populous by halting another cheater who is purposely hindering the fun and flow of the game for one half of the ingame players. Is the “cheating” not only justified but encouraged as it improves gameplay for all but the “original cheater” and the “preventative cheater”?

Also given as I thought the ingame admin was machinegun I saw no other way and I made this account today when I got banned.

So why not report him? All you had to do was type “/admin machinegunfunk is cheating.” You had a plethora of options that could’ve led to the “cheater” being banned as opposed to you just cheating against him, which won’t do anything, and in the end you being banned. Cheating regardless of reason is permanent ban. I am sorry if you think otherwise, but those are the rules.

“/admin” sends a message to admin who I thought machinegun. But I did cheat and I understand rules are rules, and you can’t bend them for just me and not do the same for everyone. So I guess I need to play on those Brazilian servers with 980 ping. Thank you for listening to my appeal I understand why I am banned.

those are all the lines either of us said during that map between when you joined and when you were banned. at no point did i “admit” to cheating, so i’m not sure where you got that idea
i’m used to being called a cheater. it happens pretty much every game, so i do try to have fun with the people who accuse me, but it gets old when people start cheating against me to “even things out”. do you know how many people have done that today? 8. 8 separate players started cheating against me to “even things out” in 2 hours 10 minutes of playing on and off (and one of them evaded their ban twice so they could try again). i have to believe that some of you would have been cheating anyway because that shit is just ridiculous.
cheating in any circumstance does NOT help anybody. it just makes things worse. if you wanted some form of justice, you should have reported me - /admin also sends your message to the admins not currently in-game but on irc, or you could have joined irc directly, or you could have grabbed pubovl, recorded a video and made an abuse report rather than downloading cheats and using them because you got upset about losing a videogame. all of those are actually helpful and useful alternatives

sick ban evasion bro

If you actually are that skilled I’m sorry for cheating against you. I hope we can be friends if we ever meet on another server. Sorry to everyone.

If I’m ever unbanned I wont cheat. I already deleted my esp because it gives my computer mad viruses. I’ve learned from aloha not to cheat on other servers.

The issue with a few parts of your story is that they aren’t true. You came in and said you weren’t even cheating, and then you changed it to only being ESP, and only using it to kill one guy…

What happened in reality is that you were using an aimbot as well, and used it to kill far more than just machinegun, considering I myself got killed by you more than once before I started to watch you. Like he already pointed out, he never admitted to cheating either. I’m gonna give you one more chance to revise your original story to be truthful. If you don’t tell the truth then you won’t be getting unbanned any time soon. If we can’t even trust you to tell us the truth about things we already know, what makes you think we’d trust you to play on our servers again without cheating?

Additionally, do NOT join any of our servers until this appeal is resolved. Doing so after this point will be ban evading and will result in me denying your appeal.

Thanks.

I swear I wasn’t using aimbot it was esp and I used it to shoot people before they could see me but only against machinegun if I killed you it was before I was using esp. I had a point where I was afk and downloaded my esp. I had 2 kills using my esp all others where real. Nice job catching me so fast. If there’s any way for me to do to a probation like thing tell me. I’ll record my gameplay on aloha servers so you can see I’m not cheating and that could be a way to monitor me.

My other kills I built a bridge to your side and camped your spawn. When I was killed Machine Gun started killing me as soon as I spawned and that’s when I got the esp.

Final story. At first I snuck behind your guys spawn and killed you from there but once I was killed I used esp to kill some random players trying to get machine gun. However I couldn’t aim fast enough So I downloaded an aimbot but you where watching me by as soon as I had it so I got 2 kills with aimbot, one was machinegun and some other random guy on accident. And was banned with in seconds. There’s whole story nothing hidden. I just thought that aimbot was permaban so I didn’t want to admit to those last kills.

Sorry I acciedently clicked on a aloha server when on the server list I wasn’t trying to ban evade.

I’m assuming by the lack of response that my ban appeal has been denied?
