Permabanned for Sexism this time - A Hamish goodbye message

Post by SASHamish » Mon 06 May , 2013 8:07 pm

Dear LDG,

Suffice to say, I have had a cracking few months playing on this server. To share jokes and headshots with you has been both an honour and a privilege.
However, the time has now come for me to say goodbye. I have been permabanned for alleged sexism against Eiforia. I do not understand why as I often crack jokes with all
the admins however it appears as she is a woman, she receives preferential treatment.

When Eiforia told me to stop the banter I did straight away, I did not however receive any warning of a ban and I ask my ban be lifted because of their being no warning and because
the alleged sexism was not in fact sexism, I was simply joking around and was not too crude either.

There is no need to warn you for anything. You and everyone else can read about the rules on forum and on server and you agree to them while you play.

Code: Select all

3b) Racism, sexism and mockery of genocide are not tolerated. For the purposes of this rule, race also incorporates Jews, Arabs and similar, as well as variants such as "nigga". This rule will be enforced irrespective of whether your own race matches the race indicated by the word, as we don't find it acceptable for words to be "privileged" such that only a certain race can use them.

I've read the logs. "Not too crude", lol.

Harass someone based on their gender and you're out.

Was it some generic non-aimed comments, or was it actual targeted harassment?

Targeted.

Oh and Hamish, I must say, if I were you and wanted a girl's attention next time, I would certainly practice before that.

There is no need to show you the logs you are neither an admin or a mod its non of your business.

And may i remind you of the following:

Code: Select all

Ban appeals are between the banned player and all administrators. Only post in a ban appeal if you can offer some useful input.

Other players knowing the offense and thereby how not to act is clearly beneficial.
