To any administrator:
I was banned for one month on October 13 for my disruptive game play.  I posted yesterday about being unbanned and allowed on the server.  RaketenHorst was the admin that banned me.  I am simply asking to be allowed back into the server or told why I can't at this time.  I have not been to Simple for the whole month so I know it is not VPN or evading.  Any information would be appreciated.

Well I guess I was caught! (Sarcastically) ....I never lied about anything I did put the mines on the bridge and yes I did shoot you on the bridge but I didn't shoot into the camp so were did my creditability go?  Please if you are going to spend the time to post all the video why try to make me look bad?  I have never had much of a problem with you just with Ana (who by the way did a nice thing for me the other day).  Would love an appeal and a promise of no more mines but if not I guess I will do my time...but please don't try to make me look like a liar or a cheat.  Just because people don't like my play doesn't make me the other...one last thing as well that you would put "man" in quotes is saying that I am something other then that for someone who knows nothing about me you are making some assumptions about me with that dig

#15 Re: Server Ban Appeals » unban from R+R Simple » 2022-03-23 00:12:27

Well....this is interesting because I always try to choose my words and what I say carefully...my intent is never to go after individuals or to make general assumptions about people who I have never met nor probably never will....stereotypes can be good or bad depending on the circumstances....I do enjoy these maps and there really is no other place to play so I am kind of at mercy of the administrators on this site....I also want to say that I have had some very fair and forthright discussions with admin here as well....my intent is never to make others gameplay unpalatable to the point they want to leave....my point (and by the way we are talking the past 2 years or so) is that certain individuals just don't like the way I play and thus decide to find ways to either make the game unplayable for me (teamkilling) or look to make me an example to others not to behave badly.  I have never said I didn't break the rules and I never thought I should not do ban time for it...my bans have been from 2 weeks when I started playing regularly all the way to 2 days.  I have a couple administrators at least have dialogue about my behavior and reacted as they should unemotional and to the point.  The reason I wrote what I wrote was to prove my theory its not just about violations but its about how some feel about the integrity of this game.  Doesn't excuse my behavior for poor judgement but sometimes we should look at intent. I do get a little punch-drunk and tired playing making bad decisions late at night (playing from the US) the intent is to not be disruptive or be an ass but just that poor judgement... trust me nobody is harder on themselves then me about doing something stupid. What I will not do is say "I will never do it again" because no one can guarantee anything in this life.  I will try to make the best judgements possible but I am not going to change my gameplay to throwing grenades at Monte Cassino...it says be creative and that's what I try to do... many don't agree with my methods but why would you care if it is inside the rules. The world is full of different opinions. and usually not just one works all the time.  I have never and I mean never criticized other player for gameplay.  If that is how they play and like AA so be it who am I to make a judgement.  I would never tell other player "Hey go somewhere else because I don't like your gameplay" that really makes no sense.  I am probably the easiest player to kill because of the way I play...celebrate and kill me a 100 times over.

Those are my thoughts Anna take them for what you want I am always going to try to be a better player for everyone but I will not be bullied and smeared for the type of game I play and you made that abundantly clear that is what you think (at least you were honest). If you honestly believe that I deserve a 1 month ban for two incidents in a month and having nothing before that for almost a year then I guess I go with the consequences but if you are doing it because you just don't like me or my gameplay along with that then maybe you should reconsider the length.  I am sure this will not get me unbanned but I sure feel better see you sometime between now and April 17.

#16 Re: Server Ban Appeals » unban from R+R Simple » 2022-03-21 23:50:19

Well I guess I will ask again....respectfully...I would like to know how long my ban is for...also it now is saying I am disconnected instead of banned...does that mean a permanent ban or something else?  Once again just need to know information as an administrator should be willing to give

#17 Re: Server Ban Appeals » unban from R+R Simple » 2022-03-20 11:24:49

Can you please just answer one question "How Long is my Ban"  I have asked several times but I think you like to keep it cryptic for some reason...just need to know

#18 Re: Server Ban Appeals » unban from R+R Simple » 2022-03-18 19:37:53

This is the last I will say about this....I am not sure were you guys are coming from it seems either you dont want regular players on a game that is  almost 25 years old or you simply dont like my gameplay and you are looking to push me out.  I said along that I will make a mistake once in a while only one person I ever heard of was perfect.  I am sorry I am not friendly with the folks on this game I guess if I was then my treatment might be a tad better.  Put me on the cross and stiick nail in my hands the only thing I can do is say that I always try to play inside the rules I have had a couple of incidents I am not looking for opportunities to do things when admin is not around (which is quite frequently) I have never called out other player, baseraped, teamkilled (even after being teamkilled numerous times by people who dont like my game style)  The question I pose to you Anna (and you are the person I typically have problems with) is why you have a problem with me?  I guess it is the way I play as I am not a team player solo guy who does his own thing.  Really this is a game not real life I understand the reason for rules people make mistakes we move on.  Not sure what to say I just wanted to defend myself I am not out to break the rules because I shot one guy in a base with a sniper rifle or shot other when I was shot at.  Hope someone has a little mercy on you if you were one ever to make a mistake.

Anna:   Not quite sure what all of that means I have played 1000 + on here of course I know the rules I am not disruptive, baserape, or any other kind of problems for other players...I occasionally slip up playing  guess I am not perfect but I do enjoy this server so still not sure how the penalty is for and I guess if its 99 years so be it...not here to fight just to play

Since I received no reply on my request a little more info...was playing on map Peenemude and I had an American tank that was firing into the German base...it continued to fire when I was fired upon at which time I fired back with my main gun killing (Reds) who I am guessing is RaketenHorst incognito...so guilty as charged I did it and never denied I did it...I was banned then went to other simple server were I was given a lecture and a 3 day ban.  People may not like the way I play but I just try to come play and stay inside the rules.  For a regular player with over a 1000 hours in I say this ban is a little punitive...asking once again for an unban so I can play this weekend

I was banned from Gothic Line for firing at tanks after they had cleared from home base.  I was banned by Panda who I have no idea was admin and never even let me explain.  Nothing is wrong with firing from the ridge at tanks after they clear the base if I am wrong many others are.  I have made sure to play inside the rules on this server and dont appreciate getting banned for playing the game.  Asking for an unban

Hello everyone:
I hope some tech savvy individual can answer a question for me...I have a Dell G7 with Intel Core 17 8th generation chip, 256 ssd drive and harddrive and Geoforce GTX video card.  I am using Windows Compatibility to reduce my screen at startup so it will return to normal screen size when I complete my game.  My windows 10 has all updates but a funny thing happens occasionally:  The server will stall in a reasonable amount of time to load.  It doesnt happen all the time but once every 3 or 4 times I log on.  I usually can restart and all is fine.  Just wondering if anyone else has had the same problem I have looked through the forum and it is mentioned but not this specific issue any help would be appreciated

Also does anyone have a link to a clean version of Battlefield HD I have one saved and can't remember where I found it

Thanks again

Hello All:  I know I am not well liked at R@W for a variety of reasons...I was the reason he was banned last night as the alleged Hailbiker teamed killed me 10 to 12 times on the gothic line.  I understand many don't like my methods of play and in fact play on the alternate team to kill me.  I thought it was very unlike him to play like this.  I have played in games with him many times and he has never teamkilled.  It was a unusual situation that I thought odd.  Think what you want of me but I have to agree something was up.
