Why should you be unbanned?
Hello, I recently got back into playing TF2 after a couple of months and discovered I have been permanently comms banned. The reason by the admin suggests "voteabuse", but if I recall correctly it was because there was this homophobic kid who was making fun of my voice and I tried to get him kicked for being edgy and a squeaker.

That may have been against the rules and I apologize. Consequences may have been appropriate at the time, but a permanent ban seems too harsh for calling a votekick on some edgy, homophobic kid? It has been three months too. I'm sorry for using the votekick system to be petty and I won't do it again.

Hi. Any updates? Thanks

I have ran into you a couple of times on 2fort

If I recall the moment of the mute, you said you didn't care if you were muted so you pulled a vote that wasn't valid.
I saw you already had a history of mutes, so perma mute was valid. If you can REread the rules and understand them, I would really appreciate it.

The reason for my history of mutes is that I used to play a satirical "femboy" character on skial servers (nothing that broke the rules) and some guys who thought they were funny thought it would be good for them to mute me while calling me a homophobic slur. I have always treated it with irony and that's why I said I "didn't care"; I dismissed it otherwise.

The comment on your profile was meant to be ironic but if it came across like I was actually some sort of SJW, I apologize. I have reread the rules and understood them to apply to anyone regardless of what slur they are saying or not.
