Votekicks last only 30 minutes. Did you wait at least 30 minutes to make sure your “ban” is not just a votekick?
yes
What was your in-game player name when you were banned?

Which AoS server were you playing on when you got banned? Reminder: We can only help you with bans that took place on aloha.pk servers.
arena
Why were you banned? Lying severely decreases your chances of getting unbanned.
BtA had a bug where arena walls weren’t being rebuilt and I didn’t notice because I was debugging sound and player position desync issues
Why do you think you should be unbanned?
[2:28 PM]Daniel: ok it’s fixed
[2:28 PM]Daniel: I was rejecting build_line by player id > 31
[2:28 PM]Daniel: normal build was accepted
[2:28 PM]Daniel: hence why I didn’t notice it
[2:28 PM]Daniel: though looking back on it I should’ve noticed it during apoc on babel
When were you banned? Best approximate date and time, please.
Hi @Dany0, I’m the admin that banned you. Thanks for making an appeal and I’m glad you’ve fixed that bug.
I noticed there was another bug where you were killing my player at my spawn when I was actually in a completely different corner of the map, kinda as if my player on your end of the connection was frozen at spawn. I’m guessing that’s the desync issue you mentioned in your appeal, are you able to confirm if that bug is resolved as well please?
Yes, it was a bug with how I was detecting whether I got a position update from a dead player, on occasion, pyspades sends dead players moving (kill packet → world position update moves the dead player → respawn packet), I still don’t know how that happens but it only happens on non-ctf gamemodes it seems? The game thought all players are still dead (including the local one, lol) and simply rejected the position update. But it did so inconsistently, I have a theory as to why, but for now I simply disabled this for now and I’m working on a better solution.
That’s good news, I’m glad you got it fixed. I’ve removed your ban and you should be able to join our servers again.
I would also suggest if you need a safe way to test your client without the potential to disrupt other players you could try spinning up a server on https://hosting.dgd.cx/
