Okay, so I've been trying to remain unbiased as a staff member. I'm going to say +1 to shorten, but this will seem like i'm trying to damn him more than it seems.
Staff side of me:
looking at the evidence posted by eclipse and beebee, I have to say Eclipse's is a little more damning imho, like the onuris incident. That's pretty rough stuff. I have noticed that Cheny has been a little bit toxic lately, since the Moat Exodus. It's been a clusterfuck to say the least, there's lots of new players, some of which are toxic too. Despite the countless warnings issued against him, he still persisted. He does need a break, I think, but I don't know 1 month is really the length for it, maybe 2 weeks, tbh. This is still his first ban, despite a long track record in the community where he's been an active member for months/years. While that longstanding status should tell us he should know better, I still believe that every once in a while, we kinda let things get out of hand.
Personal side:
Cheny is a good friend to me. He makes me laugh on a bad day, he's gifted me things, and he helps new players as long as they aren't overly obnoxious being very friendly, lending them things to help out, etc. I've personally heard and said much worse than he's said in server. People say KYS, shit like that all the time. He does step pretty far over the line sometimes, but then again, so have I. We all overstep a little bit sometimes. He's not a bad person at heart, he just needs to step back and really think about what he's about to do. It's how we learn as a people. Trial and error. He's a good soul, a good friend, and can make you have a good fucking laugh when you need one. He's reliable, and abides by the rules a good majority of the time that i'm around him.
Again, +1 to shorten, admin discretion, but I say 1 more week oughta sweat him out of it.
