Introduction Information Section Steam Name: THEnooby SteamID32 (STEAM_0:X:XXX): STEAM_0:0:421674088 Discord Username/ID: the_noobybg Timezone: GMT+0 / BST Age: 17 Time Played (check with !time): 2w 3d 18h 4m Your current rank(User/Donator/Trusted): User Do you have a mic & will you use it?: Yes & Yes Are you consistently active on the forums and server?: Yes Did anyone from the Recruitment Team assist you in making your application?: Yes, Sharp. Staff Recommendations (Sponsors will be asked to verify): Thomas Basic Information Section IC Character names, ranks, and brief overview of their duties/everyday activities in a list format: - Billy Kuhbier, Stabsfeldwebel, Regimentsstabsfeldwebel der Kaisergarde. I'm tasked with the training of the KG, as well as ceremonial events. I am also in charge of frontline command during times of combat. - Barry Kuhbier, Polizeiuntermeister. Part of the Interior Minister's guard detail, I'm tasked with the protection of the IM, MOI Leading State Secretary, and NSB High Command How long have you been roleplaying?: On Prometheus, I joined at the end of 2023 or the start of 2024. On GMod as a whole, I started Roleplaying, though not at the same time as Prometheus, at around 2021 or earlier. Have you received any infractions i.e Notes/Bans? If so, what were they for, and what could you have done to prevent getting them next time?: I have recieved a 1 hour ban by Whoreson last year, it was due to me telling others that the Lord Admiral is Whoreson's alt character. Since then, I've ensured that I don't talk about people's 'other characters'. I received an RDM note last year. I believe this was due to my misunderstanding of the trespassing & shooting rules, as I shot a trespasser without trying to detain them. Since the, I've ensured to attempt detainment before shooting people. Staff Knowledge Section What previous experience so you have as a staff member either within Garry’s Mod or the Nutscript Gamemode? None, this would be my first time in GMod staff. Why do you believe we should pick you for the Prometheus Networks Staff Team?[300 words or more]: -- I believe I've been in Prometheus for a considerable amount of time and have encountered several situations that the rules do not specifically address. This would help me understand the more niche problems that players might sometimes face. I have also seen more common situations, which means I know what should happen at those times, however, I have not. been in the community for so long that I would forget my own mistakes as a new member of the community, and so I believe I would be more understanding towards new players. Overall, my experience with staff members over the time I've been on Prometheus will make my training easier for recruitment staff. Furthermore, I believe I am quite active in both EU and US time zones, which makes me versatile and open to helping during times of low staff activity, as well as available for training whenever members of the Senior Administration / Recruitment Staff are available. Overall, I believe that I also have the personality that a staff member should have; I am understanding of players who have just entered the community, or have been caught in a difficult situation regarding rules, as I have been in the same place. I am also a fair judge and don't care about a player's faction or if they are someone I know, and even if my judgement begins to tilt, I'd be able to recognise it and pass the staff sit on to another staff member. I like the community of Prometheus, even if it has its ups and downs, just as any community does; it keeps going and improving. I would enjoy being a part of the team that allows this to function, as it is one of my main GMod servers, and one I tend to enjoy the gameplay and overall experience that this server provides. -- What are the duties and responsibilities of the position you are applying for in your own words? [150 Words or more]: -- The duties of the Staff Team are the following; Help any player who has a question about rules or the RP in general. They should encourage new players to continue playing the server, and also explain how to play correctly. Punish any player who breaks the rules, as they are put in place to ensure a fair and fun experience for all players, and staff need to uphold that experience. It should be said that staff should take a level of autonomy on whether, or how much, to punish a player, as not every event is the same, and the rules do not outline the dos and don'ts in every possible situation. The responsibilities of the Staff Team are the following; To learn from their mistakes, or while watching other sits. There is always going to be a new situation that hasn't happened before, and staff members are responsible for learning how to take care of them. Staff members are also responsible for taking tickets and upholding their quota. -- Notes: N/A

You're an autistic retard. All you do is self-insert yourself in every character you make and act retarded and unlikeable. You've been doing the same exact shit from when we were in our censored era, which was 2 years ago. Deadass autistic, not even throwing this just as an insult, I really do think you're just severely autistic and completely can't read the room around you. Take a break, seriously, direct your energy at something more productive and enlist in your military as a tank operator or something.

Denied. Your appeal is denied at this time. It lacks genuine accountability for your previous actions and focuses more on denial and deflection rather than reflection or ownership. You can make a new appeal in two weeks and I expect a sincere acknowledgment of your past behavior, an understanding of why it was unacceptable, and a clear explanation of how you've changed since then.
-
Accepted. However, If you receive any infractions within the first few months of your unban, the permanent ban will be reinstated immediately, without any chance to appeal it.

Communist Gibbon 2 Appeal (Finny Admin Aboos)
Coffee replied to Communist Gibbon 2's topic in Denied
Denied. After reviewing your appeal and the staff member's response, alongside the provided evidence, your ban will remain in place. There are serveral reasons for this decision: 1. Clear viotlation of Global Rule 1 The video clip provided clearly shows you using a racial slur (the hard R) repeatedly in voice chat while passing by another player. This is a textbook breach of Global Rule 1, which explicitly prohibits the usage of racial or otherwise offensive slurs. Your defence, that it was not targeted at anyone misses the point entirely. The rule does not require the abuse to be directed at a specific individual. The language that you used is not accepted under any circumstance in our community, full stop. 2. Mischaracterisation of the sit and staff conduct You claim that the staff member failed to provide context or allow you to explain yourself is simply false. Finny clearly outlined what rule was broken and gave you the opportunity to respond and instead of acknowledging the issue or taking any responsibility, you doubled down and tried to dismiss the rule by playing semantics. Saying "I would have apologised if it was directed at someone" only reinforces that you don't understand or are refusing to accept why what you did was unacceptable in the first place. 3. This appeal was not a dispute but an excuse You labeled this appeal as a dispute but failed the challenge the facts. You admitted to saying a racial slur (the hard R) "once or twice" yet the clip shows multiple clear uses of this language. Your entire appeal reads less like a genuine dispute of unfair treatment, and more like an attempt to shift the blame onto the staff member and avoid any accountability. That is not how these appeals are meant to work. 4. Warnings are not owed when it's blatant like this. To be clear here, staff are not required to issue a warning when the offense is as blatant and severe as this one. Running around saying racial slurs does not fall under a "gray area" this was a clear cut violation and you clearly looking for a reaction. Your background as "ex staff" should have made you more aware of this, not less. 5. Accusing staff of trying just to meet "Quotas" Suggesting that Finny issued a ban to "meet a quota" (a quota that does not exist and again something you should know as "ex staff") is not only baseless, but a transparent attempt to discredit a justified punishment. Putting the blame on the staff member rather than reflecting on your own conduct is the exact opposite of what an appeal should contain. Final Note: This is not a case of miscommunication, context being misunderstood, or staff abuse. This is a case of you knowingly breaking the rules and then being upset when held accountable for it. If you are serious about returning to the server and actually roleplaying, I suggest reading the rules and reflecting on your actions. - Yesterday

Hey, I was the staff member that banned you. How the situation went from my perspective, is that I was about to exit the bank until you ran in, and what you proceeded to do was say the hard R a few times as you ran past me. After that, a member of the Feld came in to the bank to whom you decided to say another inappropriate set of words (you will hear them on the clip that I will provide). You also asked for ammunition from both me and the Feld member (and later on other people in front of the ICC aswell) so you could RDM someone. Unfortunately I forgot to clip the part about threatening to RDM, but that was not factored into the ban anyway. After all of this, I pulled you to a sit on my staff character and proceeded to explain to you about having broken Global Rule 1. I explained to you what this rule is, after which you asked me if it was myself that you were causing verbal abuse towards by using the slurs. I told you it wasn't, but that it still breaks the rule regardless. Like you said, you told me you intended to apologize if I had felt like I've been abused by your choice of words, but what you fail to mention is the fact that just because I didn't feel that way, you felt that there is "no need to apologize" for what you said. I provided you with enough context and explanation regarding the situation. In fact, I probably gave you a lot more of an opportunity to explain yourself than would have been necessary, since you did not even want to apologize for your actions. If you genuinely want your appeal to be taken seriously, maybe focus less on trying to point fingers at staff and more on understanding how your words can affect the people around you.

Your Name: Communist Gibbon 2 SteamID (STEAM_0:X:XXX): STEAM_0:0:40971815 Appeal Type (Apology or Dispute): Dispute Which staff member banned you?: Finny STEAM_0:1:70511341 How long is your ban for?: 2 weeks Why were you banned?: Global Rule 1 Why do you deserve to be unbanned?: Global Rule 1 states - Whilst we advocate for Freedom of Speech and have very little limitation on what can and cannot be said, repeated verbal or text abuse of a player causing them discomfort is considered harassment, this includes but is not limited to the usage of racial or other offensive slurs; know where to draw the line. False allegations is also considered harrasment. Quiet simply I didn't break this rule. Whilst I may of said an offensive word once or twice, there is no way in fucking hell I should banned. There was no repeated verbal or text abuse of a player, Finny simply teleported me to a sit and claimed he was present during me saying a slur, I asked him if it was him I was directing the slur at (to apologize) he said that it wasn't, and even if it was it "isn't relevant" ( absolutely baseless, of course it would be relevant as I intended to apologize if I did cause someone distress from verbal abuse. I tried to explain to him what led to me saying what I said; and Finny banned me in the middle of me talking without hearing me out. No one even interacted with me or replied to me during the roleplay, or indicated to me I was abusing them or making them uncomfortable. Finny just decided I was "repeatedly abusing someone" arbitrarily. Additional Information: Yeah I may have swore once or twice but the staff member failed to use any discretion and banned me without giving warning or providing any sort of context, explanation, warning or anything. I suspect I am easy pickings for this guy's monthly quota (I know there may not be a quota, but as ex-staff I am well aware that this guy is a new staff member and may be trying to get his numbers up.) I just feel like this was extremely heavy handed and may have been handled better.
