I'd love to get dragged into a debate about the way admin team treats and judges players, but I see a little crack here: the absolute lack of sincerety and good faith from your side. Let's take a look at your latest ban.
You:
-got adminPMd for splashing someone wih acid
-responded with "yeah, ok" when told to stop doing that (which would be 100% fine, if not what happened next)
-proceeded to complain about getting PMd in-game and splashed someone with acid, AGAIN
Considering those circumstances and your previous notes/bans, I think the ban was 100% justified. Feel fred to use the admin complaints subforum if you think otherwise tho.

ok, i never said the ban was unjustified though. i fully agree with the ban.
and truthfully, shit was 10 days ago, so im not even going to pretend like i remember my thought process. i was just acting stupid, and i got what was coming to me.
the full reason i was inspired to talk about it was the other situation, wherein someone was banned for foul language, the worst of which seeming to be the word bitch.
i also fully believe that my discord ban was unjust, based on two screenshots i saw after having been banned, one denoting someone i was in vc with, of whom i pinged once, asking what they were doing in vc while both deafened and not streaming, saying he was sick of my shit behind my back instead of to my face like an adult, and the mod who had banned me solely off of annoying him when i was having a conversation with someone else who even vouched for me that i was chill, calling me a shithole.
it feels overall unprofessional, and it was something i wanted to talk about, and get opinions on. i never once mentioned my current ban, but i do thank you for the excuse to fully state my reasoning as to why i made the post, as i did want to go back and clarify, but it felt too late.

Goon already has checks and balances.
its simply people leave goon, no need for a full on government to be formed over a silly farty spacs game.

this obviously isnt what i meant, i used the american government system as an example of power distribution. the american government system is still extremely flawed regardless, but its a stable system that has worked for generations. the point i was making was that admins have free reign, and no one to counter them, which is usually considered a problem in terms of rule enforcement. there are no cops without a mayor, without a senator, etc. i realize it does sound very goofy when fit into the perspective of a 2006 game engine with a still active community, but it was merely meant for discussion, and potential growth.

i dont quite know where i went wrong during drafting, but it seems that the only take away was not any new perspectives or insights on the admin system as a whole, but rather that i was complaining about my ban. the amount of people who seem to have entirely missed the point astonishes me.
see below for three examples, and the ratio of likes to dislikes.

additionally, there are those who completely shrugged it off without anything meaningful to say at all.

if you, or anyone else reading can tell me what exactly i said within the post that would make so many people think it was about my ban, or just otherwise not care for more than shitting on the post needlessly, please follow up.
