    Ban Appeal
    SteamRep BlockWhat was your in-game name when you got banned?
    Rampant
    When did it happen?
    A few minutes ago
    What's the specified reason?
    Spawnkilling
    Why do you think you should be unbanned?
    I charged myself with sticky bombs into the red base, killed 2 guys and destroyed their teleporter/dispenser, then I bombed myself back to my base to heal myself and all of the sudden I got banned.
    I went to the forum to search is there specific rule about 'spawnkilling', and, no there isn't a rule about that.
    At least I haven't saw it and I want unban

    I love you because you love Del Boy, but we don't handle temporary bans I'm afraid.

    Spawn killing is basically spawncamping, also its only a ban for a day and we don't handle bans that are only for one day. However were you asked/warned to stop doing this before you were banned and did you do it multiple times?

    I'd have to have some sort of evidence to make a decision or not, I mean if you went in there to destroy a teleporter and killing only two guy's, I don't know if you could count it as a spawn kill attempt, if you did sticky jump away then I don't think it would be spawn camp.

    Nope, I wasn't warned at all.

    Yep, just sticky bombed myself into it, killed I even think it was one guy since I saw teleporter and dispenser, so hurried to destroy them instead of people, yeah, then jumped outside and saw Heavy, Spy and Sniper taunting and attempted to kill Heavy, and when I was finishing the job, got banned, that's full story

    As stated above, we do not handle temp bans.

    See this ban as a warning. Next time maybe you will be a bit more careful, and think twice about what you're doing.
    Jero and I are punishing spawnkillers/campers really quick, since it's really common on the server. So it may have been an accident that you got banned, you have to talk to him yourself.

    But as I said, see this ban as a warning.

    I see what you're saying, but also, as stated above what I have done isn't a spawncamping, but I understood you all so, once again, it is ok

    Spawncamping is when you camp outside the enemy spawn, and killing them that way.
    Spawnkilling is when you are inside the enemy spawn, and killing them.

    And we are allowed to ban spawnkillers as well.

    is what he didn't do.

    This ban is quite unfair IMO.
    He did kill 2 guys at the spawn. And that it was an accident does not mean anything. Okay. But after he did that, he quickly went back to his spawn instead of (tf2 wiki):
    I think a ban for that, even if its for 1 day and was just a warning, was a bit harsh.
    A warning on the screen or the chat would have been better.
    He wasn't spawncamping. He got a ban for nothing. Which is bad.

    But, just my opinion. And a 1 day ban. Doesn't change anything.

    Entering the enemy spawn while an admin is in-game is very risky, since she/he can get it wrong. And in the most cases, entering the enemy spawn often lead to spawnkilling.

    But this is, as I said, not a ban made by me, so I can't really know for sure what happened earlier. @Snak.Jeroen need to reply as well.

    Until then, I suggest we stop arguing about it. It's only a 1 day ban, nothing big.

    Read the rules next time, you are only banned for 1 day.

    If you did read the rules you would've known it was not allowed.

    Tbh, I did read the rules, and what I have read there's nothing to do about my situation, therefore I made appeal
