    This is not a forum ban appeal, Dark isn't coming back to FoG and he just wants to play on FoG's server when the people he likes are on there.
    If he wasn't banned right after he left, after he made the group and after he insulted everyone, he shouldn't have been banned over this.
    If we take out the Darkregen variable, we can see that the ban reason is dumb, no one else would be permanently banned over it, nor would they be declined the right to appeal.

    I feel as if I've been summoned.

    I don't usually reply to ban appeals but this interests me. Both sides of the argument have equally valid reasons, so this is tricky. On one hand, Darkregen insulted people, calling them autistic and similar. Not only did this happen to me and @Taco, but it also happened multiple times on the servers (Which was the reason you were permenantly banned in the end). On the other hand, you weren't a terrible player, and you had a decent amount of friends and shit. You were an OK admin, and were fairly active.

    There's only one thing that makes me think this appeal will be declined, and that is the group. If you hadn't made it, this appeal would have a MUCH higher chance of being approved, the group is similar to what headtricker did, so take that as you will.


    Also if you think I would want you dead, you're mistaken, I couldn't give less of a shit what happens in your life.

    Hello everyone, i have come to terms with Starfish and Watson, mainly Watson on why i have acted as such a humongous dickhead as i have. I'll start it off with a long yet touching story.

    Well, about a year and a half ago, i changed a lot. I became lonely, no friends nothing worth fighting for. It all started at the age of ten, which is the main reason i am like the way i behave on a daily basis. I was bullied from 1st grade all the way till 5th grade, resulting in me that was left woth suicidal thoughts and no friends, not anyone to communicate with. I went from being a happy preschool kid to a child that wanted to die. After a long time of nothing worth fighting for, i moved to a different school where all the bullying had changed me to a person that i didnt want to be. I started bullying others aswell as stealing. I them changed school again. To where im currently located, it was around this point where i tried to start my new life and made some friends. One night where i couldnt sleep, which was a weekly thing that happened where i lost all my sleep. I woke up, started playing in the middle of the night where i stumpled across a server, by any chance was achivement/idle. I started making more and more friends through this community where i then became admin and finally my life was changing for the better. Then, as it happens to be me. Another thing happened.

    I became antisocial, i spent all the time i could alone on a computer doing jack-shit. This was the time of me, as a person changing again. I basically formed this mind-set that everyone was fuck all. Nothing to me and not worth my time, i started getting into fights again and picking on smaller kids, i then left this community behind as i started to behave differently towards people that was my friends resulting in this ban.

    I have come to terms with my actions, i faced the countless insults i recived every day at school aswell as losing my friends again. Then one day i actually got a friend again, i then started to become a regular teen, finally atleast. You know, parties, drinking and having a shitload of fun with friends. Hell, i even got a girlfriend. Shortlived relationship but it worked. And well. My history has kept re-writing itself. Returning to the life i once had and changed again yet i persisted through the hell that was my life to where i am today.

    I know thay you hate me for what i did, wether it might be insulting you, being a HUMONGOUS asshole towards you or anything thatmade you hate me, or dislike me. As i am speaking to YOU the person that reads this post, i understand if you dont want to give me a chance or if you dont want yo see me again. I dont personally think that i deserve a chance for what fucked up shit i did. Im not trying to earn your sympathy or anything related to that. Im trying to make you guys understand that whatever mess i made, whatever fucked up shit i did. I am, truly sorry for what i did.

    You may write a novel about this as long as i get 25% of the earnings. Watson and Starfish, thanks for listening to me on TS this might not be the stort you heard, as i told you the short version of it all.

    *Slow clap* And for now on i wont be such a massive dickhead towards anyone. My life isnt worth it as for all the shit i've done.

    What im trying to say about all of this is that im willing to change myself as an individual for the benefit of the doubt. Aswell as going back to my old name of Darkregen. Im changing my life.

    Yours, faithfully. Darkregen.
    (Yes as in the brony version of old me, not the memeboi that i am today.)

    TL;DR: Im changing myself to become a new person and i beg for your forgiveness.

    Sorry for the wall of text.

    Glad to see you finally decided to make an all-out serious post regarding all of this.
    I never got why you did all of this. Then again, neither do you know yourself.
    You were never truly offensive towards anyone who knew you well enough, jokes aside.
    And I'll never understand why the hell you changed so much.

    I believe that people do change, and I believe in giving them the benefit of the doubt.
    Even though people might argue that you've done too much bad stuff.
    However no one even dares to speak of all the good stuff you've done.
    I remember you as a great admin and a great friend.
    And I've always remembered you for that.
    Not for all the "funny" stuff that's been happening.

    You seemed a changed person and seem like you have matured since then, you have my full support.

    I swear this isn't the first time you've been given a last chance, why should you be given another one? We've seen you talk shit about this community in steam groups, and on other forums when you're trying to join new communities. Surely if you hate f-o-g like you say you do, you shouldn't be allowed to come back.

    As much as i understand and respect your opinion, i wouldnt really consider this a "Last chance" but more as a retry/restart. Aswell as which new communities? Only one i did it on was in the community i walked off to before my ban after which i stopped.

    After the conversation we (and starfish) had on teamspeak, you somehow finally came clean and we had a really mature conversation.
    This conversation together with your long post you made did help us make our choice on what to do with your appeal.
    After some small discussion I had with some people, I've come to a conclusion.


    I'm going to give you a final chance on the terms we made on teamspeak.
