Why you should be unbanned:

Heya! I just joined the server about 25 minutes prior to this post because it was one of few US servers active at 4 AM my time. I didn't have very long to play before a mod by the name of " A white guy" Or something similar banned me for cheating. I was banned following a T round. One of 4 rounds I was able to play without incident. Then I received my traitor round and proceeded to kill a few players. Hunt a few players down with a radar, and headshot a few players with the HK rifle provided in the gun menu F3. (Mind you I've played on Serious TTT before just not in quite a while) So everything seemed fine until the round ended with me finishing off the last inno. Once the "TRAITORS WIN" menu displayed on screen I heard quite a few voices talking at once,(specifically one female player who I had previously heatshot in the T round mentioned) exclaiming that I should "have a good day" and " Bye bye" in a very smug manner I might add. Upon questioning these odd reactions to my T win the moderator present offered no rebuttal or explanation, rather banning me on the spot. Now I'd imagine some people watched my T round and didn't expect headshots or whatever that they saw. But I can assure you that almost 4K hours of Gmod + 1300 hours in CS GO can assist in the ability to shoot heads. I just wish Id have had a chance to say that to the moderator on the server. Or for goodness sake at least spectate me for a couple rounds before jumping to a conclusion. Im a regular on a number of other TTT servers and I have zero issue with staff and players alike, and Id hate to be unwelcome on a popular server simply because I played too well. Thanks for taking the time to read this appeal.

Evidence of Innocence:

​

 

You were banned by @That One White Guy for your first offense of hacking. He will respond at his earliest convenience.

 

Cool, appreciate it.

 

Hey BangBang.
I had banned you for Hacking with No Recoil.
Many players had told me that you were hacking, so i looked into it and i deemed that you were and then i banned you for it.
My video recording went corrupt but i know @zomborg has recording of you do it.

 

Ok. I'd really and truely like to see the evidence of the hacking Im being accused of. Honestly in a situation like this, theres no real way to defend yourself if its just he said /she said. Honestly though, based on the angry reactions I received from players like "Zomb.org" after killing them, Id imagine they went to you claiming I had hacks. But we'll wait for the video and you guys can make your judgement on it. Thanks for taking the time to handle this appropriately.

 

Here is my evidence I have

Spoiler: No Recoil

Not sure what you mean by 'angry', the only thing I said to you in-game was "bye bang bang" and then you were banned. Nonetheless, there is my evidence.

 

Right so, just as it appeared in the video is just how it appeared on my screen. Let me ask you this, how often do any of you involved use that HK rifle? Or that (m16?) other rifle I picked up towards the end of the round. The animations for it are very sloppy. Specifically the reload. Its not as smooth as the default Gmod guns. Id encourage anyone to go ingame and use the HK rifle for themselves. See the spray and how it looks choppy. Also as far as controlling recoil. Anyone can do that with a little counter wrist pull downward. But I digress. Ill allow the staff to view the video and make a judgement call. Thank you for uploading so swiftly Zomb.

Edit: Need to learn 2 english

 

@ 2:20 seconds into the video there's lots of spots that look like recoil. The HK is hard to tell because yes it's a gun with minor recoil.

 

Another example in the footage that Id suggest is aroudn the 1:40 mark. Using the feature on youtube to slow down the video to half speed you can see me pulling down against a slight recoil, but as Disco mentioned above, its not much. The rifles pretty low on recoil.

 

Alrighty, taking both yours and Mr. Discos thoughts and point outs into consideration and chats with other fellow staff members.
I'm going to accept and void your ban.
My sincerest apologies to you Mr. BangBang. I'm going to unban right now.
I hope this didn't cause too much of a problem!

 

I'm just glad it got handled as quickly as it did. No hard feelings and I thank you for the apology. I'll see everyone on the server then.
