Monkiedo/Papa Mustache's Ban Appeal

[Papa Mustache]

Your Name: Monkiedo/Papa Mustache 

SteamID (STEAM_0:X:XXX): STEAM_0:1:428169832

Appeal Type (Apology or Dispute): Dispute

Which staff member banned you?: Browniemeister

How long is your ban for?:  3 months

Why were you banned?:  MRDM (apparently)

Why do you deserve to be unbanned?: 

I should be unbanned because the situation that led to my ban was chaotic. A player (a “marine”) attempted to restrain me, and I clearly warned them not to proceed. Despite that warning, they attempted to restrain me again. In response, I acted in what I believed was self-defense within the rules of the server.

At no point was I brought to a formal sit or given a chance to properly explain my perspective before the ban was issued. From my understanding, I was still actively involved in the encounter and believed I was responding appropriately to an immediate threat rather than intentionally breaking roleplay rules.

I followed orders from my superiors in the Kaiserguard to the letter. I stood my ground and defended myself. I had shot a Marine before as well, beforehand, after he had fired on another Kaiserguard, and there was no issue with that incident. On top of all this, when I was banned, I was in the middle of being arrested anyway, so the in-game system would have decided my fate, and I would have been able to defend myself since I wasn’t brought to a sit.

I respect the server rules and staff decisions, and I’m not trying to argue against authority, only to clarify that I did not intend to break rules or disrupt roleplay. I would appreciate the opportunity to return and continue playing while following proper procedures more carefully moving forward.

Additional Information: 

I'm off to college in 3 months, so this ban is effectively a permaban if it's not shortened or revoked.
