Why should this appeal be considered?: I want to take a moment to speak openly with the community about everything that’s happened over the past year.
It’s been over a year since I was banned, and during that time I’ve had a lot of space to think not just about the ban itself, but about the way I treated people, how I came across, and the energy I brought to both the server and Discord. When I look back now, I can see clearly that I wasn’t the best version of myself. Instead of lifting others up, I was often the one dragging the vibe down, and that’s not something I’m proud of.
Over this past year, I’ve been trying to grow as a person. Even in small, simple ways like catching myself before I say something reckless, or pausing to listen instead of always trying to be “the loudest in the room.” It’s kind of like leveling up IRL: I can’t undo the bad stats I put into “toxicity,” but I’ve been grinding XP in patience, kindness, and self awareness. I know, that sounds cheesy, but it’s true.
I’m not here to make excuses. Every report, every rule broken, every time I made things harder instead of better that was on me. And I understand now that it wasn’t just about rules; it was about trust, respect, and the sense of belonging this community is built on. I broke that, and I regret it deeply.
Since then, I’ve been working on being different. Even while banned. I’ve been practicing patience, positivity, and actually listening to people. I know I’m not perfect (no one is), but I’m a whole lot better than I used to be.
I know some people probably saw me as just “that toxic guy with an ego.” Honestly, I can’t blame them. But I want you to know that’s not who I am anymore or who I want to be. I’ve been working on myself, both online and offline, and I want to prove that I can be someone who adds joy instead of taking it away.
I know I’ve broken Rule 3.4 more times than I’d like to admit. I’m sorry for that, and I take full responsibility. I’ve messed up, I’ve been careless, and I regret it. But I want to be clear this year hasn’t been wasted. I’ve been learning, reflecting, and working on becoming someone better.
Yes, I am asking to be unbanned. But more importantly, I’m asking for the chance to show through my actions not just my words that I’ve grown.
To the staff: I’m sorry for the headaches I caused. I know you have enough on your plates, and instead of respecting your time and effort, I made things harder. Thank you for all the work you do it’s honestly underappreciated, and I wish I had respected it more from the start.
To the players I annoyed, upset, or disrespected: I’m sorry. I can’t undo what I did, but I can promise you won’t see that side of me again. I’ve grown out of that mindset, and I want to bring positivity instead of negativity.
And to be real for a second: this community mattered to me way more than I admitted back then. Being away from it kind of felt like losing a home server in real life. (Yeah, I know, cringe but true.) That absence made me realize how much I actually valued the people here, the fun moments, and the sense of belonging. I want to come back not as the person who messed that up, but as someone who actually deserves it.
Outside of the game, I’ve been putting more focus into my company, working more, and generally just trying to grow up. That shift in priorities has helped me mature. I’ve learned to slow down, to listen, and to not always need the last word. Basically, I’ve learned that sometimes the best play is not pressing W it’s stepping back and respecting the team.
Finally, I want to directly apologize to Satella. The way I spoke to you was completely unacceptable and disrespectful. You didn’t deserve that at all, and I’m genuinely ashamed of how I acted. You were kind enough to forgive me in DMs, and that meant more to me than I showed at the time. Thank you for being more mature and understanding than I was. I want you to know that I’ll never repeat that mistake.
So, to wrap this up: I don’t just want to come back to play again. I want to come back as someone who can make this community better someone who respects the rules, the staff, and the players. I want to bring back the same fun, connection, and positivity that made me fall in love with this place in the first place.
I know words are easy, but I’m ready to prove it with actions. Thanks for reading this far it honestly means a lot.
Additional Information: I know this appeal has already been long, but I just wanted to add a little more here.
First, thank you to anyone who actually read all of this it probably felt like a side quest and I appreciate the patience.
Second, I want to be clear that I’m not expecting instant forgiveness or a free pass. If I’m given the chance to return, I understand it will take time to rebuild trust. That’s okay with me. I’m not asking for shortcuts I’m ready to put in the effort day by day to prove I’ve changed.
Third, I really do care about this community. It’s more than “just a game” to me it’s the people, the laughs, the memories. Cheesy as it sounds, this place kind of feels like a second home, and being away from it has made me realize how much it actually means to me.
Finally, I’ll admit this part might sound cringe, but I think it’s true: people grow the most when they fail. I failed a lot here, but I’ve been using that failure as fuel to get better. Like a respawn you don’t come back the same, you come back smarter, stronger, and ready to play the game the right way.
That’s all from me. Thanks again for considering this appeal, and whether or not I’m unbanned, I’m grateful for the lessons I’ve learned and for the community that helped me grow.
