You're probably using the wrong server link then. User Not Banned

Ban will expire on 3/26/2021. Please DM a member of ImperialRP SMT with this ban appeal to have the ban removed at that time. Ban Expiration Date Established

@ZeeptinI'll let you make the final ruling since you issued the ban originally when you have the time.

I couldn't tell you who it was that banned you, because that would require a deeper dive then I have the time for since I'm on LOA, so I can't immediately provide you with whatever reasoning went behind the ban. However, if you tag the SMT member you initially disrespected (you have my permission to do so) and they're fine with it I can process the unban since it's a simple command.

A cursory search showed you were banned for SMT Disrespect in DMs.

BAN | Case [#277] Moderator: Zeeptin#2031 Time: 02/15/2021 09:25pm UTC Reason: lying in chat about server performance

Yeah, I'm not showing any bans for you on the SCP discord server.

Not a Bug This is a known bug that is across all servers. Not anything we can do unfortunately but warn people if they use the exploit.

As a reminder, players are more than welcome to post suggestions regarding certain classes that they believe affect the server as a whole. The Head Command rule for suggestions are ONLY in regards to regular branch updates. A player requesting a specific class get a nerf if it has a significant effect on the server (GENSEC v D-Class would meet that) then it's perfectly fine. The player is more that welcome to reach out to a command member to get their input, but it is not required.

DENIED Discord ID Provided Has No Ban History - Not Corrected After Request

DENIED - No Format

That discord ID does not result in any history, I believe it's because it's a wrong ID since it doesn't even provide a no history result. Please correct it within 24 hours or this will be denied.

@zLt.GrayCorrect the format within 24 hours or this will be denied please.

I can not over emphasize how against I am of PK's. PKs serve no legitimate purpose in my eyes. I remember when I was a new GENSEC Sergeant leading a patrol through HCZ and checked the EZ gates. A MTF squad then cuffed us claiming they caught us coming out of EZ, despite us not having keycard access to get it. They then gagged us and dragged us into EZ and held us there for 30 minutes before turning us over to GENSEC low command who released us. If that incident resulted in the GENSEC command member doing a PK on me resulting in me being demoted and having to change my name, I would've left the server entirely. All it does is annoy people and potentially ruin everything they've worked for. If people want to make PKs something they want to happen, they can do it as part of an event and work with ET and SMT for specifics as part of a singular event. But I am majorly against any sort of public PK system. As for A1, we literally just removed a MTF branch. The only way we could swing adding another MTF branch back is the removal of another one, or removal of O5 Staff, nether of which is something that I would advocate for at this time. However, I don't have a horse in that particular race.

DENIED After taking into account the statements provided in this appeal, I'm electing to deny this appeal. One of the most important things to take into account is Eternity's statement: In PoliceRP, micspamming is allowed in limited circumstances, and they have their own style when dealing with issues. Here in SCPRP, micspamming is very occasionally tolerated, but typically not. Playing music over your mic is prohibited by the MOTD unless you have ET or SMT approval, which the appellate did not. The second issue at hand is whether a racial slur inside a song being played counts as racism. As with everything that comes with staff issues, it's a grey area and depends on the context. If a player plays the song once and didn't know that it contained a racial slur, I'd be more inclined to get a verbal and call it good. However, a player knowing it contains the slur playing it repeatedly will get looked on more harshly. Additionally, from a global standpoint, if we allow the micspamming of songs using racial/homophobic/etc slurs, then we'll run into issues of bad actors using soundboards to use these slurs against other players, claiming that it's fine since it's in a song. It is important to note that staff members absolutely can take into account warnings from other servers. It's ridiculous to think that a player can have dozens of warnings on another server with similar rules and allow them to claim, "well this is my first time here so I don't know the rules". Additionally, it would be even more ridiculous to allow the person that has prior homophobia warnings to claim that they didn't know that these types of slurs are prohibited. The main reasons that I'm electing to uphold the racism ban is because the player knew the song contained explict content, was micspamming without authorization, played the song multiple times, and has a prior history of using slurs. Thirdly, in terms of staff disrespect, again, it's a gray area. The age of a staff member doesn't matter, only if they can do their job, so referencing someone's age or commenting on the pitch of their voice serves no legitimate purpose outside of trying to get a reaction. I'd say it would warrant a verbal warning unless it was continued after the verbal warning personally, but based on the ban length no time was added, so I'll elect to leave that in place as well.
