Steam Name (Current): Mr. Meeseeks
Steam Name (During incident): xXxHolocaust420xXx
Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:88541030
Steam Profile Link: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198137347789
Name of staff you were banned by: Zott and increased by Axe (I believe)
Length of the ban: 2 weeks (originally 1 week)
Would you like your ban shortened or repealed?: Shortened
Reason for ban: Racism
Did you commit the actions stated in the ban reason?: I do not believe that I was actually racist based on my actions.
What really happened?: I was messing around for a couple hours on the server, changing names, changing pictures, etc,. I then spoke in a light voice and said (partially paraphrased) "The next question I've received was "Why are you a n***** faggot"." I was then immediatly banned by Zott about right as he joined. I was then told that Axe has increased my ban time after I was banned.
Additional details: I do not believe that this is actually racism. It was a statement towards myself. It wasn't aimed at anyone except myself, and I do not understand why I was banned. It's simply ridiculous that many people have used this simple term but with an A and joke about it a lot, however when a hard R is used, people are upset about it. People can even joke about killing jews and such, or tell each other to kill themselves as a joke, or even talk about stalking people, but it isn't acted upon by the staff because they know it's a joke. However people are upset when "n****r" is used. People can even be offended due to the post-round music. Some of the artists are pretty controversial due to their lyrics like Hollywood Undead because of their genre and lyrics [SOURCE] but even they say how their lyrics aren't targetting the LGBT community or hating women and how they don't want to offend anyone and how it's just a misconception of what they're saying (I like them, so don't take me wrong), or can get offended to sexual songs like The Bad Touch song by Bloodhound Gang because it's referencing sex although it's highly popular (which I love too, just using these two as examples). Many people has experienced on the server these actions, veteran players on the server and even new players have experienced it here. It's not racism, I was using it in context as a simple joke, not aiming towards anyone on the server at all, and racism is simply a whole culture or race. I understood why I was banned at first, but not why it was extended.
Although my name during the incident seems like I'm being a hypocrite after speaking about all of this, I can understand. I've reminisced on the situation and understood that it was wrong. That's why I'm not asking to be fully unbanned, because I've done a lot of things before the incident that was wrong that I wasn't punished for, however many people on the server has done much worse, right?
EDIT: Proofread literally every single thing but messed up on the title. Fixed it.
