I have already stated I don’t support erotic roleplay and if Velvet didn’t want that type of attention they shouldn’t broadcast themselves as the Belle Delphine of the station in character and not expect people to degrade them for their deplorable acts. Asking someone their age over the internet is not only deplorable but it makes you look like a fucking creep and would actually attract more attention on me being some disgusting perverted fuck trying to groom people, so reasonably I wouldn’t say “hey velvet how old are you ;-)” because then I’d get fucking FBI’d, by treating it less seriously it becomes clearer that it’s a joke and gives me more wiggle room for a defense in the event of something like this and stops people accusing me of being a pedophile ERPer from Lifeweb.
Also metafriending isn’t against the rules but it doesn’t change that it’s shitty and people who do it should be watchlisted for other actions.
I can’t think of a good way to put together what I want to say, but here goes the best I’ve got.
I supported the ban because of our toeing the line policy - but after a long talk and your most recent post (not the one you made while I was typing this) I support a reduction in the ban length, and a change of the note left behind.
I didn’t (and still don’t entirely) interpret what you were doing as satire, but @Kasual fully convinced me that this ban definitely shouldn’t be for ERP, and shouldn’t carry the same permanence an ERP ban does.
I don’t know exactly what to change it to, but trying to provoke a ban from admins and then trying to make a rallying cry against us isn’t cool and we’re collectively tired of dealing with this sort of behavior. Follow the rules and stay civil (and serious) if you have a disagreement with our interpretation of them. Trying to provoke us to make a point isn’t going to be productive - it’s going to rile us up and cause your actions to be viewed in the worst way they can be interpreted.
TL;DR
Opinion is this is not ERP, but admin harassment via two days worth of provocation and potentially adminshopping depending on exactly how you got the permission after being told no initially.
Note should be adjusted to remove the ERP reference and ban should he reduced but not removed.
Still gripping onto that ban hard huh? You do realize this wasn’t bait to get myself banned to go off and say “fuck mins lol.” This was a legitimate joke as it pertained to the round ongoing, if I wanted to get banned I’d have just made a maxcap and boomed it in the shuttle. As for “ban-baiting” not once did I actually do that, I was doing satire in dorms that one time for the funny joke of ahelping erotic roleplay and looking like that, that was not ban-baiting. If you mean I was trying to bait other players into getting banned then, no not at all because I don’t escalate situations ever as non-antagonist out of genuine fear of ruining other people’s rounds. It is hardly toeing the line because it wasn’t intended to bend or break any rules and it was just a comment made to degrade someone in-game as is the other copypastas I posted. I’m not an ERPer. I’ve earned every RP experience I have.
All shitposts aside, I really have not broken any of the rules (in this case) and my hostility towards admins is because of my bad experiences in the past with many of them, especially during bee’s conception, I’m not trying to ban-bait I just have the compulsion of tending to think negatively of the admins. I don’t support this ban in any right because it seems directly unrelated to actually how I affected the server and more about what the admins thought about my character (as in reputation), which in this case it would be a rule 1 ban. Also the banning admin pretty much said it wasn’t OK to say that in the RP environment, after I said OK without any further discourse because arguing gets me in situations where I have to explain myself, then he changes it to saying “oh no that’s erp” in the middle of the ticket and bans me without further warning while I was in the middle of conversation with Velvet, since I had just died from a plasma fire created by an unintentional leak because I had to respond to his ticket, which I’m pretty sure he was the only one who cared about the comment and was just looking for a reason to get me banned. You see, I like beestation a lot but the admins keep on banning me for no reason, you see?
Going to agree here with Ruko and say that rather than being classified as ERP, it should instead be under harassment and the ban should be reduced to a temporary ban, since I do agree that jokes should be allowed OOC and IC; but the level you were taking this too was too far was almost reaching the point of harassment in my opinion but it really depends on how the person you were targetting takes it / if they consider it harasment or not.
In my opinion you should get unbanned, but really need to stop with the creepy behaviour and stop trying to trick admins into thinking you are ERPing even if you are not; this seems to me like a joke that you took too far.
Anyway it’s up to @BrawlerHorde to give our the final verdict now.
I reached out to @Velvet about this for a statement since their opinion of whether they felt harassed or not could change a lot of the weight of this ban.
My dumbass did not screencap their response, but they felt it was joking around done in poor taste and didn’t feel harassed iirc. They can post to correct me if necessary
who are you???
i want complete absolvement for an improper ban that had no proper reasoning behind my beliefs that ERP should be legal and that we need shockcollars added to bee immediately.
stupid psyop from the admin team trying to get the ticket closed under “player approval” heh, nice try bog.
wait a second you’re from colonial marines. you banned me for no reason from the discord for shitposting. what the fuck man why did you do that to me not cool i didnt do anything wrong i just wanted the hug change to be reverted why the fuck do you have to harass me everywhere i fucking go?
I’ve reiterated that this is a server that allows all age groups, we aren’t an 18+ server. Please don’t even discuss ERP related stuff on here as it’s plain and outright wrong. You’ve been warned on numerous occasions from other Admins, I really don’t feel this should be lifted anytime soon.
