Good afternoon, sorry for keeping you waiting but I've been really busy since yesterday with my studies. Let's get into it.

You have to precise that it was an actual heart (the organ) and not the cute drawing thing. You have to mention that your spray also showed blood flowing from it (logic it's an actual heart).
I have to say that I was not personnaly offended or disturbed by any mean.
In the other hand, I want you to understand that there may be people who don't want to see stuff like this, especially when they only want to play some TTT.

Here is the URL containing a summary of our punishment process and the rules of the servers.
I ask you to focus on this part :

"Porn/Gore/Disturbing sprays, avatars or content

• 1st offense - 2 week ban"

As you can see, it is not mentionned that you needed a warning for using a spray like this. Nuno wanted to be the "good guy" because he knew you were not the kind of person who wanted to cause harm to anyone.
But my take on the question is that you are supposed to know the rules when you play a videogame to fully enjoy your experience. The same concept applies when you play on a specific server. If you don't, you should not be surprised of assuming the consequences of your acts and that's why we are here.

I deny your appeal because I was simply applying the punishment process and because you could have thought on your own that this spray was too ambiguous to be tolerated. Your old spray, which was simply a Microsoft PowerPoint's logo was decent and I can not think of any acceptable motivation that made you change to this one.

I invite you to read the extended rules of the servers on the link below.

I wish you a good day.

 

This player complied with an admin's discretion and should never have been banned in the first place as a result. What Aegis says above is not incorrect entirely, but he should have unbanned after learning about the warning. To avoid future incidents I will not be striking this from your record. Please take this as a deterrent to using gore sprays in the future.

Thanks for appealing.
