Steam Name (Current): Jertz and my alt Trumpster
Steam Name (During incident): Jertz
Steam ID: STEAM_1:0:8362913 (Jertz), STEAM_0:1:74329710 (Alt)
Steam Profile Link: http://steamcommunity.com/id/icaperats (Jertz) and my alt https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198108925149 (Trumpster)
Name of staff you were banned by: Black Parade
Length of the ban: Permanent
Would you like your ban shortened or repealed?: Repealed
Reason for ban: (botting, having two alt accounts at once)
Did you commit the actions stated in the ban reason?: I admit having two accounts on at once to fish faster, but never did I bot in anyway as they allege.
What really happened?: As you're fishing you have quite a bit of downtime between every catch waiting, and I thought to minimize the time waste I could use two accounts. I checked the rules over here at forums (https://forerunnergaming.org/forums/showthread.php?tid=109), searched through the search function and even checked on discord and couldn't find anything saying alt accounts being against the rules. I've been fishing and people have been blaming me for botting for a day or so, with no apparent reason. So you might be wondering, how can you play on two accounts and do something as interactive as fishing where you need to pay attention to the game. There's a program called Sandboxie which you can use to launch another session of hl2.exe in a sandbox environment essentially running two clients at once. I could easily alt-tab between windows and catch the fish without difficulty. If you didn't know this was possible in the first case, I see how you might be suspicious. It isn't first time people accuse me on the server, whether it be crouch spamming macros, or bhopping scripts, mainly just because they dislike me. How can I prove this? I took a shadowplay right before the ban, that's the only recording I have as I didn't expect the staff to jump the gun without any proof. If you have recorded me fishing, you'll find that both of the accounts never moved at the same time, as it's not really possible as I only have 1 window active at time.
What comes to alt accounting, if that was part of the ban, and not just the botting allegation, I feel weird getting punished for something that's never mentioned in the rules. There's people on the server who have ironmen accounts etc. and never thought it would be an issue.
Additional details: Here's the shadowplay clip I took before the ban: . This is clip of Jertz and everytime you see the game freeze it's because the window is inactive and I'm on the other window.
