What was the situation before you got banned:
An Australian gentleman got on and started interrupting people and yelling them down over the mic. I threw a few roasts in, muted him, we move on.
Other players were suggesting that we should rap battle it out, so I unmute him. He spits trash bars, advertises another server and then logs off. I was then confronted about using a homophobic slur. I don't recall saying any homophobic slurs at all, but it may have slipped. I honestly don't know. But since two active IG members said that that word came out of my mouth, I'll own up, take the punishment and move on. I apologized for if it slipped when speaking to Drew on Discord.
Who banned you?:
Drew
Are you in the wrong or in the right:
If I knowingly and intentionally said the word, I'm in the wrong. Now where I am at on this issue after having a fair conversation with Drew on Discord. I didn't think I said it. I didn't do it intentionally at the absolute most. But I still apologized. I try not to use any slurs ever. Period. The only exception is when I am at work (I'm in the Navy) and we shit talk back and forth and words get thrown around in a joking manner. Racial slurs are just not in my vocabulary. I am very uncomfortable using them in general.
In my eyes, I didn't say it consciously or purposefully if at all. I still think that may have been said by one of the other players who was using other slurs in the server. Honestly, it was a clusterfuck of people yelling and talking over each other. So if I did say the "F word", it was completely by accident and a slip of the tongue. So I would like to just call it as me saying it on accident as that is still a possibility. This aint court, so I am not going to pull the beyond reasonable doubt shit. But I want to just put that behind, if it happened, it happened and was a slip up. I know the rules. Have for years. Won't happen again.
If punishment is deserved provide an alternative you would like that you yourself think is fair.
Personally, I would like to see it maybe taken down to a 7 day ban at the most severe. Ideally, a 24 hour ban. I would take an unban all together if at all possible. I am a long standing member of the server. A VIP and have been around the server for 5 years. All that time, not slipping up or getting myself banned once. Anyone who has been around and knows me well can vouch. I'm a pretty non-toxic guy.
