Kodin banned me for no good reason.

I was on the server today and Kodin banned me for no good reason. He'll say I was laming which I wasn't, he believed the other players who were mad and said I lamed because I splat them if their saber was up or they started a fight with me. He also said he remembers having some problems with me in the past, even though I'm not on that often and was never kicked or banned before. I know you higher-ups are always going to give the benefit of the doubt to one of your own in these cases, but I urge you nice people to consider my case, check the logs, and do whatever else necessary in heeding my request for unbanishment.

The logs will reflect multiple warnings and a server wide sleeping as there were 2 other lamers present as well. The reason you were never kicked or banned in the past is because when I'd sleep you, you would disconnect.

Unfortunately, the only way for me to check the server logs is to have IrishDragon email them to me, and he is on Vacation.

I will see what I can do, but be aware that should the server logs reflect the warnings and server-wide sleep command being used, you will be ban ranged rather than JA+ banned, and your IP will be blocked from our forums for providing false information.

Honesty is the best policy. Let's hope you chose that route to begin with.
I will update you via Email and PM should the situation change, but for the time being the banishment sticks until the logs prove otherwise.

You must have me confused with someone else, I was never slept on this server before yesterday. Relying on hazy memory and the word of a couple of players who were mad at me for owning them is no way to admin.

And accusing one of our top admins of having a hazy memory and claiming that players where mad because you "owned" them is a sure fire way to getting perma-banned.

If it is a mistake then the logs will clear you, but raging on our forums will only ensure that you dont return to the server.

I'm not raging, I'm just saying that was the basis of my unjustified banning. Since you weren't there, you don't know. That's fine, just don't comment and judge on something you don't know the facts about.

That's two council members you've insulted. I suggest you quit while you're ahead and just let us run our investigation.

If you are correct then we will apologize until then however Kodin's decision stands.

I haven't insulted anybody. Damn, y'all are a sensitive bunch, though not surprising coming from nerds in "a new Jedi Order for the ages". By all means though, carry on the investigation.

This Star Wars: Jedi Knight - Jedi Academy (PC/Mac) player who thinks he can own someone and accuses us of nerds took the time to search for our forums to use our Jedi Order's Banned? Abused? section to show us how cool he is has used the word "Y'all." I think a ban is in order for this butchering of the English language.

It does seem like waiting patiently for an answer based on what can be proven (server logs catch everything that is said, all admin commands used and essentially all deaths, whether in duel or otherwise, is the best option.
Instead you've only ruined your credibility by refusing to wait for the truth and insisting that no one else could possibly know what happened on a server we(AoF) own and administrate.

A much more acceptable course of action would be to insist it was a mistake, not "a couple of players who were mad at me for owning them".

Our admins have spent a long time in this clan and know all of our members well enough to know if they're being serious about being lamed, or if they're simply besting about losing.

In the meantime, I suggest you find another clan's server to lame and grief on. Perhaps you can "own" them.

This comment right here just convinced me to not even bother.

The funny thing is, you were correct about not insulting anyone up until about halfway through your comment.

Consider yourself banned by me for disrespecting our members and administrators, a rule that is clearly written on the Message of the Day upon entry to any of our servers.

Therefore, it doesn't really matter what the outcome of Kodin's banishment is, you've just been re-banned with supporting evidence.

Oh, and your forums account has been disabled.
