I was playing on a 2fort server (Chicago 1+ [32 players]). I started talking on the mic and wasn't really being annoying at all. Then a player (name being "Khalessi") decided to vote mute me because he didn't like the sound of my voice. Then a little more than 50% (55% to be exact) of people said yes to the vote. I was outraged at this injustice as he could have client muted me so he didn't have to hear my voice. But he voted to mute me altogether so i couldn't even use the text to talk to people. He basically griefed me (not to be annoying but he simply took advantage of the voting system). He abused the system and this "democracy" system is too easily taken advantage of. This is an affront to all I have worked for to make my voice sound deeper so i didn't get muted. I then tried to vote ban him for vote griefing. And he said (and I quote) "How am I griefing?". This then reminded me of another case when on a dustbowl server, the same person, (Khalessi) vote muted me with success because he didn't like my voice. I tried to report him and yes, I was outraged, so i typed it in all caps. 2 people supported me, but to no avail. I couldn't report him. I tried 1 more time, and the same 2 people supported me, still without success. Then people began to taunt and make fun of me because I was trying to report someone. Then someone else tried to report me for "abusing report because he was muted. saying it was injust" and exactly 3 people supported him, so i was reported. I was then banned about 30 minutes later and checked the sourcebans for this website. Here is what the text said.

I did not micspam, nor did i abuse the voteban system as my vote was just and righteous. I can wait out the 1 day ban, but I just feel that Skial should know about all of these people who decided to abuse the vote system themselves. And because there were no demos, there should be no reason to ban me unless they have proof that everything that happened on that server should have led to a ban. I am very outraged at this, and I hope this can be resolved. Otherwise, I will not play on Skial servers anymore and i shall see to it that an Anti-Skial group be created (not really, but that is how I feel right now).
