[hammerhands]

My name in game name: HammerHands
Date & time of ban: Thursday, 05/19/2016 (20:42)
Reason you were banned: supposedly "repeated spawn camping" but I don't do that

Your explanation of the appeal:
Hi. I guess I was banne by Wilma_Deering for (his words) "repeated spawn camping", but 1.) I don't camp, I run around and shoot people. I think you all have played COD with me long enough to know I'm a normal/fair player, and 2.) I have no idea what Wilma is talking about. I do kinda remember killing him a lot around that time, but it was pretty mindless (guns a blazin) on my part. Sorry to Wilma if I killed him, but it wasn't a camping thing. (Not to be snippy or snarky... this is a sincere point/question; but is he a little too quick to ban folks? I'm thinking maybe that's the case, but just my humble opinion.)

Any chance you can end the ban? I know it's a temp ban, but I'm stuck in my motorhome and not much to do in the evening. :-)

Thanks,
Dan (HammerHands)

Hey Hammerhands

Thanks for posting an unban request.  I was the one who banned you and from memory you were sitting in a spot shooting people as they spawned one after the other.  Whilst we normally warn players (3 warnings and then a short temp ban), I warned you about spawn camping (1) and then when you kept it up I gave you a kick (I only do this if the spawn camping is excessive) (2).  When you came back you continued spawn camping and I gave you another warning (3) and then when you kept going so I gave you a temp ban of a week (4).

(4) TempBan   Thu, 05/19/16 (20:42:25)   1 week repeated spawn camping
(3) Warning       Thu, 05/19/16 (21:41:29)   if you keep this up you will take a vakay
(2) Kick           Thu, 05/19/16 (20:40:40)   (Kick Only)   follow the server rules or dont play here
(1) Warning   Thu, 05/19/16 (20:40:29)   dont spawn camp

Whilst you may think that it was excessive on my part, when someone is sitting in one spot continuously killing people as they spawn there is little fun in that for anyone.  You have played on our server over 650 times and you are a valued member of our gaming community, but its also a good opportunity to remind you of the server rules as I note from the echleon logs that in April you were warned out of the server for tubing spawns

TempBan   Sat, 04/02/16 (13:24:02)   too many warnings: spawn tubing
Warning   Sat, 04/02/16 (13:23:36)   spawn tubing
Warning   Sat, 04/02/16 (13:14:03)   spawn tubing
Warning   Sat, 04/02/16 (13:13:14)   tubeing spawn

Please bear in mind the rules of the FH FFA server:

- No racism of any kind
- Use of any cheats will see you permanently banned
- Please be respectful
- No recruiting for your clan, your server, or anything else
- No advertising or spamming of websites or servers
- Please refrain from excessive cursing
- The use of Martydom or Last Stand is NOT allowed
- Do not bind your 'fire' key to the scroll wheel
- Camping is allowed, spawn camping/trolling is not (claying,nading,tubing and rpg's on spawn are not allowed)

Spawn camping is not a permanently bannable offence unless a player has a significant track record of it, and so your ban has been lifted.
