Ban Appeal for KJM

[KJM]

Your Steam Name: KJM
Your Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:116657547
Your Character Name: Jeffy Gutenberg

Ban Length: 2 Days
Banning Staff Member (@AdminName to mention the staff member): @Shawntae

Ban Reason: MetaGame
Time of Occurrence: 6pm est time
Relevant Evidence:

We were raiding subs 3 and werent talking at all? we had planned for Alex to lockpick and for the rest of us to raid and kill the inside people...... We literally didnt talk at all during the raid.... We just went and killed the people we were raiding? I dont see the issue with that? The only part that looks weird is when salmon dropped me the AK that he saw me kill tyler waffles for (because he heard me shoot then saw the gun on his body when I was the only raider up there on the stair case while danny and alex were coming up).... He gave me the gun when there were no people left on the top floor because he knew that Hisoka's AK had its certain attachments on it and because he knew I had killed tyler for the other AK he had in his inventory other than Hisoka's or the other person that was killed by Danny Tant and had their AK collected by salmon, ..... I didnt even plan on asking for the AK until we drove away from the raid later on but then he dropped it when I was just sitting there and healing up and kev'ing before i was gonna go grab the car...... if we were meta gaming why would salmon look in the police car to see if I was in there because he heard a car running? he would have just gotten in my car..... I had to honk to get him in the car..... I don't see any meta game at all... I have known salmon for 3 years and we have always played gmod together and we just know how to work together.... I'm glad we are being banned on suspicion of meta game with the "evidence" from the admin still not being provided to us
Additional members involved/witnessing: @Salmon @its ya boi troy @Hisoka

I'm going to comment on this as I was one of the four staff members involved in making the decision to punish you and your friend. The level of coordination involved in the raid just doesn't add up with you guys having zero communication. Your buddy neatly covering the stairs as you equip kevlar and heal, you guys making a seemingly thought out item transaction, all without a single word. Even during the ride from the raiding location to the city, you guys didn't communicate at all. No "wow nice shot friendo" or "dude i got a sick scar from that one guy". It seems awfully suspicious, and quite frankly inhuman. During our sit, I asked you what the benefits of not talking were, compared to actually talking to eachother during a raid; a question you somehow avoided. @Shawntae also brought the topic to @Lola Meid who, to my knowledge, agreed on the decision to punish you.

Also your video does not prove anything. I know for a fact that certain software can redirect sound from programs such as thirdparty voice software onto seperate audio tracks, allowing recording software to capture only game audio, effectively hiding your thirdparty communication.

"evidence" from the admin still not being provided to us

Your 'evidence' is the four staff members who spectated you during the raid, who were also involved in making the decision on your punishment. These are @Shawntae, myself, @Tim Transworth and @A Dark ℛose Panda. @Shawntae also recorded the whole thing.

I'm glad we are being banned

Problem solved, then?

I'm glad 4 of you guys took the time to spectate the raid for no reason when there was probably numerous calls being made about actual rulebreaks..... but ban me on speculation that I had metagamed.... you can close this, I'm done

Lol "perfectly watched the stairs". You wanna watch the video again buddy, I was sitting on the stairs almost the entire time and I had turned around as soon as the front door opened and a cop walked in. As for the transaction I will admit it does look fishy, but that's how it works when you've played with each other for 3 years on gmod. Communication is not necessary to complete a raid successfully it only brings stress and takes away your ability to focus on killing the enemy. The reason I uploaded the video was because that's what you would have seen if you were to spectate me and it doesn't show that we metagamed at all.

Also another point I brought up in the sit was that you can't ban someone for suspicion of something. Banning someone for suspicion is like me getting 3 headshots in a raid and getting banned for suspicion of hacking. It just doesn't work that way. You guys have no SOLID proof other than the word of 4 admins (@Shawntae @sp00fy @Tim Transworth @A Dark ℛose Panda) who are currently at war with our group. Honestly before you ban someone gather solid evidence not just the word of an admin because if stuff like this continues Monolith staff team will end up becoming Chronet's staff team. Corrupt as you can possibly get.

You had no reason to spectate us. This just proves that Monolith staff are turning into Chronet's staff. Every staff member uses there powers to try to get a certain group of people banned because they don't like them. Even if we were to meta game during that raid nothing would have been said besides "Hey, drop one of the aks that you picked up" which isn't worth a 2 day ban.

Also while we're at it why don't we go ahead and demote you guys on suspicion of corruption because that seems to be the new trend now.
