bluesoul also banned them in every room immediately. This was retracted in #site17 to allow for an appeal. User was notified that they could appeal in a different service, and they returned. Log of the appeal heard by Corvus follows:
2020-06-18 15:58:45 Corvus: Corvus has unbanned *!*@synIRC-425590B5.range86-170.btcentralplus.com
2020-06-18 16:00:03 ThisMightBeAuto: hey uh
2020-06-18 16:00:17 Corvus: Hello.
2020-06-18 16:00:21 ThisMightBeAuto: i'm very sorry, and this might sound ridiculous but i can explain myself and hope to clear things up
2020-06-18 16:00:32 Corvus: I'm all ears.
2020-06-18 16:01:27 ThisMightBeAuto: i joined a week ago and i really love the community. i struggle with intrusive thoughts and one of the ones that's been bothering me lately is "here's how you could get banned from something you love"
2020-06-18 16:01:44 ThisMightBeAuto: i typed it to get the thought out, and i meant to press backspace instead of enter
2020-06-18 16:01:57 ThisMightBeAuto: i would *never* use those words in any context or to any individual
2020-06-18 16:02:02 ThisMightBeAuto: and i feel like a twat
2020-06-18 16:02:27 Corvus: Wowsers. That's uhhh…
2020-06-18 16:02:49 ThisMightBeAuto: i'm disappointed in myself and i know that others would be disappointed in me
2020-06-18 16:02:51 Corvus: I'll be honest, I've been doing this for close to a decade and I've got jack shit idea what to do with this.
2020-06-18 16:03:16 DrMagnus: I am, for once, also at a bit of a loss. I have had that exact thought before. Never quite uhh…did that.
2020-06-18 16:03:17 ThisMightBeAuto: this sounds like i'm making up a stupid excuse, and i don't blame you if you think i am tbh
2020-06-18 16:03:33 Corvus: I mean, I actually fully believe you
2020-06-18 16:03:51 ThisMightBeAuto: i have never ever done anything like that before
2020-06-18 16:04:02 Corvus: I struggle with the same stuff. Not necessarily that specific stuff but I also have impulses to do shit that would ruin me
2020-06-18 16:04:03 ThisMightBeAuto: but it got the better of me this time
2020-06-18 16:04:15 ThisMightBeAuto: i'm glad you know what i mean though
2020-06-18 16:04:25 Corvus: But the fact remains that you, uh
2020-06-18 16:04:27 Corvus: Did it.
2020-06-18 16:04:28 ThisMightBeAuto: i've had a few… close calls irl lately with stupid stuff as well
2020-06-18 16:04:51 ThisMightBeAuto: aaa
2020-06-18 16:05:06 Corvus: I'm unable to come to an individual conclusion here. Please give me a few minutes to consult with the team.
2020-06-18 16:05:18 ThisMightBeAuto: alright
2020-06-18 16:07:37 ThisMightBeAuto: by saying any of that shit, i violated not only this community's values but also my own values, and it feels horrible
2020-06-18 16:07:59 ThisMightBeAuto: i'd like to particularly apologise to anyone who feels offended by the specific words in the message
2020-06-18 16:08:18 Corvus: Okay. So, we will not be permanently banning you. But again, the fact remains it was done. You typed it out and pressed enter.
2020-06-18 16:08:27 Corvus: I can't give you anything shorter than a month ban.
2020-06-18 16:08:37 ThisMightBeAuto: that's fair, and i accept it
2020-06-18 16:08:47 ThisMightBeAuto: it's only a chat ban though, right?
2020-06-18 16:08:54 Corvus: I should not need to say this is the last time this sympathy will be extended.
2020-06-18 16:08:59 Corvus: It is.
2020-06-18 16:09:04 ThisMightBeAuto: although i don't imagine i'm gonna be very esteemed in the community after this
2020-06-18 16:09:31 ThisMightBeAuto: once again, i am so deeply sorry
2020-06-18 16:09:46 Corvus: nods
2020-06-18 16:09:50 ThisMightBeAuto: i hate that my name is also attached to this shit
2020-06-18 16:10:03 ThisMightBeAuto: again, my fault entirely
2020-06-18 16:10:06 Corvus: If there's nothing else, please show yourself out. You will be welcome back on July 18.
2020-06-18 16:10:33 ThisMightBeAuto: thank you for taking this as well as you did. I'll see myself out
