Zax Ban Appeal - Zax - 09-26-2022
Steam Name (Current): Zax
Steam Name (During incident): Mr_Cheese (maybe)
Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:137008212
Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198234282152/
Name of staff you were banned by: Unpoke
Length of the ban: Permanent
Would you like your ban shortened or repealed?: Repealed
Reason for ban: Toxicity, and ultimately ban evading.
Did you commit the actions stated in the ban reason?: Yes.
Additional details: Right off the bat, It has been just about 6 years. It is absolutely crazy how time is just unnoticeable sometimes. It's just so surreal how I find myself here again, 6 years later cooking up another appeal. I was known by initially as "Mr_Cheese" or "BiggieCheese." I used to spend most of my time on your servers back when I was still in school. I had major anger issues back then, which I took medication for. I've made 2 ban appeals, 1 back in 2018, and the next in 2019. The one in 2019 was denied, which was obviously a signal to let it go. Never would I have thought I'd be back here again. I wasn't planning on ever coming back here; Every time I get on Gmod, I have to look at the server in my history. It brings me back to the time where I played constantly, throwing balls around in the bouncy ball minigame, fighting bosses, unlocking crates and getting wicked cool items. I could not even begin to guess what has changed since then. I was 13 years old when I was banned. I'm now an 18 year-old Highschool graduate on my way to adulthood. The reason I am making this appeal, obviously because I want to play again, but also because I decided to try and join the server. 100% of the time when I try, I am greeted with a ban message. But this time, the game actually began to load and skip past the ban message. I was able to see the time it's been since my last time playing on the server. 5 years, 3 months, 4 weeks, 2 days, 16 hours, 36 minutes, and 43 seconds. That is such a large amount of time. Overall, I feel that maybe, and hopefully we can move past the old, enjoy the present, and look forward to the new. Seen as things are different around here, and a new community has risen; Maybe I can have a brand new fresh beginning. Thank you for reading.

+1 I don't recognize you but it's been a long time so you deserve a second chance

This isn't entirely accurate, as you've actually made 3 ban appeals, which I'm not going to see that as a reason why you should stay banned.
What I'm more alarmed about his that you did not mention you were banned twice for toxicity/you were given a second chance to right your wrongs. You did not mention that anywhere.
You also made this post last year: https://forerunnergaming.org/forums/showthread.php?tid=10006 I'm not trying to use it against you, but it gives me an idea of your character.
We don't typically unban ban evasions, however, Unpoke said in a previous appeal that you can try again, and although Unpoke isn't part of the staff team anymore, I'll still use his words
If anyone else wants to see his other appeals

Sorry about the flaws, I tried referencing as much as I could. I thought the oldest appeal of the 3 (this one) was the one where I was given my second chance, which is why I did not mention it. I was planning on only including the more important details to give people the opportunity to give their opinion on the appeal. But yes, one of the appeals I made, which I guess doesn't show up on my control panel, was an appeal that was accepted. Although it didn't take long for me to get myself banned again after I was given a chance to redeem myself.
Also referencing that forums post I made in 2021 (here); I guess I wanted to kick back into the community and see if anyone had remembered me, as I was well known for being troublesome. I missed the game a lot and still wanted to be apart of it respectfully. The community is well unique, and I enjoy being around it, up until I got banned. Each appeal I made was a desperate attempt to introduce myself to the servers again. Up until the 3rd, which I decided there was no use.

I guess with the amount of time that has passed, we can give you another shot.
Don't make me look like a fool
Unbanned.
