Yeetabix Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 I got banned from a PoliceRP server for 5 days because I said "Trans people are very valid" in 2D text. It's not protesting because there's nothing political about that statement, it's just stating that trans people are people and that they are indeed valid. Sourg said it was because "some people could find that offensive" and that it was bad because it references trans people. Am I supposed to care about whether transphobes find it offensive? Then I rejoined and said in OOC chat that Sourg was being transphobic and I got a ban for "Homophobia | NCWS |" when I said absolutely nothing homophobic. https://imgur.com/a/5c5I70V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeetabix Posted July 19, 2021 Author Share Posted July 19, 2021 Yes, the staff *were* transphobic. They told me to take down a trans pride sign because it has trans people in it, in Sourg's words. So of course I'm going to argue. "Trans people are valid" is not a controversial slogan. It's the truth. It's not political, it's not a protest. The only people getting offended over it are the admins. The only people who would find it controversial are transphobic edgelords. And why is my ban reason listed as "homophobia"? I really would like to know what I said that made you draw that conclusion. I never even said the word "gay" in the chat. Do you have screenshots of anything I said? I'm a huge fan of gay pride, same as trans pride. Or do the admins just make up any reason to power-trip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are just being a edgelord looking to start drama on the server, its great that you support trans and everything but there is 0 reason for you to bring it up in OOC. You are just a weirdo looking to start non-sense because you thrive off causing chaos for no reason. And arguing on your post will get this post locked by SMT, so I'd recommenced to relax and not attack staff. And if it's such an issue for staff being "transphopes" why would you want to come back to the server? Why not make a staff report on the said admin?

Yeetabix Posted July 19, 2021 Author Share Posted July 19, 2021 1 hour later I changed the message. Before it said "Trans rights are human rights", you didn't like that, so I changed it to "Trans people are very valid". The latter has zero political connotations so I don't see how that's protesting. Trans people simply existing is not a "protest" nor is it political. It's just so that if any trans folk were reading that, it would be re-affirming in a society that isn't exactly very kind to trans people a lot of the time. I do not understand how you could find that statement problematic if you aren't transphobic, like you say. The signs could cause controversy & a negative reaction, as you rightly pointed out, but only amongst transphobes that want to deny trans people human rights. So why do you care about their feelings so much? Why don't you just ban *them* instead of the person trying to spread a positive message, if you're not against the signs' meanings yourself. Finally, I'm not really that bothered about playing on your server, but the reason why I came here is because of the *reason* why you banned me. I don't understand why you wrote "homophobia" as the ban reason. I said absolutely nothing homophobic and, as I said before, I'm a big supporter of gay pride. Your reason for banning me is because you don't like the trans pride messages, and because I called you out in OOC. But I don't get why you wrote "homophobia" of all things as the reason.

Yeetabix Posted July 19, 2021 Author Share Posted July 19, 2021 Riiight, so I'm being outright toxic by placing trans rights signs telling trans people they're valid. And you telling me to take them down because you're so concerned about the feelings of transphobes isn't toxic. And then jailing me because I don't comply with transphobes & transphobe sympathisers. And then banning me because I said what you were doing is transphobic. Did you ban the guy that wrote "cringe cringe cringe cringe cringe" over one of my trans pride signs as well? Or just me? It seems odd you only consider pro-trans messages as "stirring trouble" but transphobic reactions to them are completely fine. You still never answered my question either. Why did you list the ban reason as "homophobia" when I quite clearly did nothing homophobic? I realise by now you're never going to answer my questions because doing so means you'll admit a clear bias, and that you made my ban reason out of thin air. You're just going to continue dilly dallying and changing the subject or just locking/deleting the thread because you don't want to admit you're in the wrong.

Yeetabix Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 That doesn't explain why my ban is written as "homophobia". I did nothing homophobic. You won't answer this question and you're pretending you're not hearing what I'm saying because you know you're full of it. You just write any old excuse to power-trip and ban people who want to spread a trans-friendly message, while pretending to be impartial and supportive, and then playing the victim like *I'm* being the rude one when I quite rightly call you out on it. I wouldn't take down the signs because I know I hadn't broken any rules - it's not protesting - so you just make up some rules on the spot for why I should. The reason Sourg told me to take them down is because some people could "find them offensive" and that it references trans-people, not because it's breaking role-play or whatever, which means you are sympathising with transphobes. Nobody cares about the feelings of transphobes unless you're a transphobe yourself. You didn't ban the transphobes in the game that wrote "cringe" multiple times on my signs, it's only a problem when it's a trans-positive sign apparently. What about the guy who had a "blue lives matter" avatar? Some people could find glorifying an institution which is heavily racially biased, and commits brutality on a regular occurrence offensive. Do you care about that the same way you care about "trans people are valid" signs? No. So hopefully you'll understand why I don't believe you when you say you're not biased. Did you read my previous messages about how saying "trans people are valid" is not a protest? I don't really feel like repeating myself again, because you're just going to ignore it again because you want to believe you're justified.

Nicc Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 -Support To start off with protesting. Not all protests are political, and this will fall under a type of protest based on the server rules. Arguing with the staff only hurts your situation and that is how you got the not complying with staff part of the warn/ ban. All you were doing was trying to stur up the server and cause chaos. It was completely justified and as many others have said, our staff are not transphobic. Many of them support LGBTQ+ rights and your actions could have upset a lot of people whether they are supportive or against these beliefs. Come back and join the server when you are not trying to stir things up. The server can be pretty enjoyable when people play by the rules. 1 Current Chief of Police || Police RP Super Admin Retired State Police Colonel || EMS Chief || CERT Commander || DOC Warden || SRT Captain || Head Dispatcher || SWAT Sargeant First Class || DF CPL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
