I will try to make this unban appeal as cohesive and clear as possible.
Read the short version or the long version if you like.
(to make a long story short, if you like)
I was banned for 4 days after killing a teammate once the round was over. The ban time is so unjustly long because I am accused of having 4 recent bans, but they were just Froyo giving me baby bans (from 1 to 30 mins) for double spawning on alts. I was ban threaded for this same thing (TKing after round was done) over a month ago and Nightingale turned the other cheek to such a frivolous matter, yet due to Froyo's baby bans, my crime has been amplified.
To start out, here's the story:I was just banned today with a total ban time of four days. (

My offense? I was nudging a friendly archer 3 times in a row, each time he reported me. We were standing by the flag as there was only one enemy left (Vinky_Stagina) and Stagina was just goofing off as well. Once we killed Vinky and the round was over, I turned around and did a slash, in which my
glancing backswing managed to kill the seemingly blackbarred Aiyasha.
Again,
the round was over.I had been talking lots of shit to Aiyasha as I am very prejudice against archers. This player was obviously upset that I chased him down each round when we were on opposing teams.
Now as to Nightingale's response to the ban thread against me:Nightingale brought up the subject of someone else he recently banned for TKing and leaving server (May I remind you, this is NOT what I did, I remained in the server after TKing at round's end).
Nightingale says I have 4 recent bans on record (5 now including this one) yet only a month and a half ago (
http://forum.melee.org/na-(official)/ban-gobblinreich_ss_assington/) I was being banned under the same pretenses (TKing at end of round) and Nightingale reports
Looking at your ban record Assington you have no recent bans and I'll show you some leniency since it was the end of the round. However you need to respect people's choices if they don't want to partake in end of the round team-wounding. Continuing this behavior further may result in harsher repercussions as in the past this was a major issue for you.
So you readers may be wondering, just as I am,
how the hell have you gotten 4 bans since then?Well,
Froyoyo enjoys giving me little 5 minute bans or 30 minute bans when I double spawn on my alts. This has happened... well..? 3 or 4 times? Under the reason "Griefing"
Now back to Nightingale's former statement:
Continuing this behavior further may result in harsher repercussions as in the past this was a major issue for you.
4 days ban time is rather harsh for my first legitimate ban recently (I do not include Froyo's because they were just trifling acts of elementary discipline).
Please review the contradiction going on in your decisions recently.Signed,
