unban appeal was created by Baliff
Hi my account ID is feb4096cc8cc4365ab195744f9eee0b6.

I have been playing PR on and off for 15 years. I got permanbanned just now for "multiple times afk" and "possible shadowing".

This was my bad. This last time, the server was full, I was set to auto-deploy and was watching TV but also the monitor, and I got into the TV and never saw I had joined. Also I have been AFK in the past where I was playing for a while and round ends and I get some food or something and don't come back for a while. This is my bad - people are waiting and I am taking their time and that is not cool.

I will stop this bad afk behaviour. I got the message and appreciate it and appreciate the rules and enforcement, and playing with the HOG guys. Farley has revived me a few hundred times.

For the record, never cheated/shadowed/etc or ever considered it. I set it as illogical. I'm playing to have fun and that would not be fun. But I appreciate the rules enforcement and know that is why the server is fun and popular.

Please unban. I am already feeling withdrawal symptoms. Thank you thank you!!

Hi, banning admin here.

I banned you because you've been going AFK all the time for months and months now.
And I gave two separate warnings about this behavior persisting:

[2022-03-07 23:17] !KICK performed by 'PRISM user 2ic' on ' baliff': Stop going AFK constantly, especially on a full server. If you keep doing it, it'll be TB.
[2022-04-03 22:48] !KICK performed by '=HOG= 2IC' on ' baliff': Stop going AFK; next time might be TB.
[2022-06-19 19:56] !BAN performed by '=HOG= 2IC' on ' baliff': Costantly AFK esp full server; possibly ghosting


When I included "possible ghosting" in the ban message, I was not necessarily accusing you of cheating.
It's a note for other admins to keep an eye out for suspicious behavior.
Going constantly AFK is the most common behavior among all the people that have been banned for ghosting on this server.
So you can see why I was getting suspicious of your behavior.

While your explanation does seem plausible and I'm inclined to believe you (and thank you for the calm, rational way you offered the explanation), going AFK all the time is not acceptable because (1) it's annoying for admins who have to kick you all the time (on top of everything else we have to do), (2) it keeps people in the queue waiting longer, and (3) it makes admins to start suspecting foul play.

I'm obviously not saying don't go AFK at all (as everyone does it, including me), but please be mindful of going excessively AFK, going forward.

@Head Admins - Please unban him when possible.

@Head Admins - could you please process the unban that 2IC has approved above?

I am trying to join but still getting the ban message.

Thank you!
