You Have Tweaked It.

I Have Made A Goodbye Post, Which has had Many Replies About The Ban Being "overreactive" or "Unneeded"
Here is the link:

Connbob1, The Person Who I Said It To, Contacted Me, On The Post, Here Is What He Said

"Okay, you should know better, but I don't give a sh*t about it, no-one who has some intelligence would click the link, and I don't even get why Duck! posted the BR, it was a joke...

Hope you get unbanned, I feel this is partly my fault.

- Conn"

He Also Confirmed He Didn't Click It.
Aswell As This You Also Banned Me For It Being Malicious, And In The First Post On The Thread, I Confirmed That Is Not True.

Duck!, The Person Who Made The BR, Stated This On The Goodbye Post

"I didn't even want you to be permabanned, a blacklist would of been fine. I support this unban!"

Adman ( An Ex-Admin Said )

"I've never met you and it is likely I never will. But if one thing is certain, the fact you've been permed for what you did is a farce. Here's hoping the staff see some sense and your appeal is approved."

Aviator ( And Ex-Admin Said )

"I don't really know you but I hope you don't leave.

The ban was downright ridiculous and I hope the suspension can be completely removed!

Good luck man."

Kpred ( An Ex-Admin ) Said

"Ah well, you probably shouldn't of done what you did although how it is worthy of a permanent suspension is beyond me, goodbye and good luck with your ubr."

Gandhi ( A Normal User ) Said

"I've seen people being punished by a mere blacklist for doing things that look demonic in comparison to what you did. I find it insane how you could have been banned for this (I even find the fact that somebody decided to post a BR on you insane.) Everybody knows that you were having a little joke, like most people on FL do, so managing to be banned for it is beyond me.

I hope you return soon and I hope that whoever finalised the ban comes to their senses and punishes you correctly (something like a blacklist, if that, would be more appropriate.)

Goodbye!"

Bowi ( A Normal User ) Said

"What? Are you kidding me?

You got PERMENENT suspended from the community because you threw that link out there?
Everybody with they're brain in place could tell that it was a joke. It was maybe a shitty joke but holy hell... permenent?

Are we really hitting the point were shit like this can get you permenent suspended from the community?

Good luck with your appeal.. you did not deserve what came."

Aviator ( An Ex-Admin In Another Post ) Said

"Saying links in OOC isn't against the rules (unless it is links to illegal downloads, viruses, known malicious websites or genuine advertisement).

Just writing http://www.p*rnhub.com isn't even advertising... That is the reason he was banned for at the end of the day. It's a legitimate, non-malicious, well known pornography website.

It isn't even ban worthy in the first place..."

I also have some things to state to you:

It is a well known fact that PornHub is the largest, most well known pornographic website on the internet. It is in no way malicious or virus-containing...

My Ban Reason is "Advertising" Would you say the same about writing "www.facebook.com" or "www.youtube.com" or "www.fearlessrp.net" in OOC?
I'm sure you wouldn't.

It Would Be Different If I "advertising" an amateur pornstar or encouraging people to take up pornography, which I weren't.

Thanks For Taking Your Time To Read.

Also Please Do Not Warn People For Posting, Some Are Useful, And Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

User has been warned for this post. Reason:
Not involved-Warned
#13
I copy and pasted the rule from the forums. It is in no way, shape, or form "tweaked"

I will warn players for posting on this unban request if they are not involved in this case. Everyone is free to post in your good-bye thread.

Advertising within our servers and forums are not tolerated. Youtube with FL related content is allowed. Fearlessrp is obviously allowed because it is the community website.

SirCrow, I have found a story about "advertising"


A person on my goodbye thread said:

A few weeks ago I was discussing a GPU on Amazon on OOC with a few players including Sir Crow. Clearly this was a sly advertisement for Amazon and Nvidia and I guess that I deserve a permban too.
Ridiculous punishment for a joke that wasn't harmful, I hope that the staff see sense and unban you/reduce the sentence.

So
#15
Why didnt he get a perma?
#16
also regarding your youtube comment:

People are always advertising their youtube videos in OOC , aswell as reference to youtubers. So if I get banned for this, why dont they get banned for promoting youtubers?
#17
We had been discussion graphics cards. What kind of graphics cards we have, what we wanted, ect. I stated what graphics card I had planned on getting. No one was persuading the players online to buy this card, or that card. No links had been sent, ect. There are many different stores/online shopping websites you may buy products from.

You sent a link to a known porn site. Legally, you must be 18 years of age. I am, as are you, well aware that there are MANY players/members on this community that are not of-age. FearlessRP does not condone illegal activities for your person. (IRL.) We do not allowed pornography within the forums, we aren't going to allow players sending porn links within the server.

You advertised a porn site within our servers. Thought it is not a "clickable" link, the link is still there. Players may copy/paste the link, as they can IP addresses. It's not allowed.

"A notice or announcement in a public medium promoting a product, service, or event or publicizing a job vacancy"



That Is the definition of advertising.

A GPU is a Product, thus being an advertisement.

Thing is, what you did was not advertising. Just putting a freaking link doesn't automatically make it advertising like some staff think it does... which is rather strange when almost all of us should know what adverts are.

It is ludicrous... to an amusing degree of how silly it is.

To be honest, if we're talking that almost any discussing in OOC that isn't related to FL as "advertising" than this is worse and shows inconsistency by the banning administrator...

You just need to counter argue and the fact he hasn't exactly replied to your arguments. The ban time has been missed by him and it's quite clear by most people's standard to be way over the top. The rules don't actually cover what you have done and so how can you be legitimately punished for it?

Definition of Advertisement:
"A notice or announcement in a public medium promoting a product, service, or event or publicizing a job vacancy"

It would be really silly to even consider what you did was "promoting" the website.

In response to his YouTube comment, many times people post links to general YouTube videos or reference YouTubers, and if you can stretch advertising to mean writing out a URL in OOC, then I am sure you can say that discussing YouTubers is promoting them as they even monetize their videos...

You were promoting your graphics card by telling people about it, Avi states a great point (or lots) in this, seriously, if you do not know what porn is, you should not be on FL, and no-one who is not interested will go on the link, the thing I don't get is that it WAS a joke, it's not like anyone is gonna click the link! Where is your sense in this? A PERMANENT ban is excessive, maybe a year blacklist from OOC, not a ban! I feel extremely sorry for Cyborg as I asked this, and he meant it as a joke. I just cannot justify how he got a perm ban for it.
