If the staff are very aware of what they're supposed to do then this case shouldn't have even happened right? I don't doubt your servers ability when it comes to staff all that I know in this instance ONE staff member not the entire staff base ONE of them didn't properly host a sit to investigate something further to ensure a ban was correct, And because of this I am currently not able to play on the server, so I'm going to be brutally honest, the way the situation has been handled makes me feel "abused" the definition of abused is "use or treat in such a way as to cause damage or harm." and in this case I feel like damage has been done it doesn't matter how big or how small a situation is, if you talk so much about guidelines which I have wrote the guidelines for many major networks like Icefuse, the number one rule is not to overstep your power/boundaries which in this case is exactly what happened, I'm not here to argue but I will not sit here and get told that "We don't abuse people we have punishment guidelines" If this is true you should no the difference between racist and anti-Semitic and you should be able to look at this situation and say "Wait a second why did this player recieve a ban for racism for something that truthfully is maybe not an appropriate comparison for the situation but definitely isn't racist, I can't stand the fact that you're sitting here trying to stand up for the staff team like this is about the entire staff team, This is about one staff member who made a decision without following the proper guidelines to ensure this doesn't have to happen, The only reason I talk generally about the staff team is because if one staff member makes a stupid mistake it makes all of you look bad, I really could care less about your track record and how much YOU follow the guidelines this is about my ban, whether it was justified, who is involved, and what will be done after looking over every detail. No disrespect towards you by the way I just don't care to listen to you tell me about how the staff team follows guidelines and how the staff team is always proper when it is very clear that in this instance a staff member did not pertain to those guidelines, if that was the case a sit would have been held, I wouldn't have sat in jail for half the time while I received the ban, and my ban wouldn't have had NITRP thrown onto it, EVEN THE STAFF MEMBER WHO BANNED ME IN THE FIRST PLACE SAID HE DOESN'T KNOW WHY NITRP WAS ADDED TO THE BAN WHICH ONLY PROVES MY POINT OF PEOPLE MAKE MISTAKES, NOBODY IS PERFECT AND SOMETIMES MISTAKES NEED TO BE CORRECTED, I rest my case and I can answer anything you ask. And finally yes I understand every server is different but that doesn't change the fact that every servers staff guidelines is to essentially similar to that of a police officer and guess what the police arrest somebody for the wrong reason every once in a while and sometimes people lose their job over it, to sit there and say how your staff team doesn't make mistakes and abuse people and to say that they ALL follow the guidelines is a load of shit and shows just how unrealistic your thinking is, On no server that I have staffed or managed was every single staff some perfect person and if you honestly think that your staff team is some elite team of super cops who NEVER make a mistake and abuse someone or overstep a boundary is absolutely egotistical and ridiculous. If I was some Minge CT would I go through all of this work to get this sorted? NO, the only reason I'm here is because I was genuinely abused by a staff members power and I felt it was so unfair that I needed to make a forum post. Open your eyes and look at the bigger picture and stop focusing on defending your staff team when this isn't even about the staff team, it's about one situation.
