Solid -1
Not that I expect anyone to take me at my word, but I pride myself in being able to tell when someone's problematic (no matter how good they are at hiding it) as I have a lot of experience dealing with people like that, and you were a very problematic person. I said it on the staff discord when I was still there, you tend to keep to yourself and don't talk much, but I don't recall a single time that you were talking that it wasn't to talk smack or complain about ridiculous things. Not to mention the times you've pushed the lines between the rules to simply to get a kick out of it, and there is a big difference between having fun with others and having fun at the expense of other people's fun. If I said there were simply mistakes, I'd be lying. You made choices that led you here.
You were also a cold and dismissive person towards me and others. Why? It's beyond me, and quite frankly it doesn't matter. I don't expect to be liked by everyone, nor would I want to, but its the type of behavior I would expect to have earned, not simply given for no good reason, and that alone speaks volumes about what kind of person you are. Your demeanor towards me only changed when I became staff, and it became crystal clear that you choose how to behave depending on whether there's staff present or not. This is not only my personal opinion, another ex-staff member pointed it out to me, but I didn't wanna take something like that seriously until I saw it myself.
All in all, I'd seriously question the decision-making of the current staff team if they chose to unban you. You have a history, there are patterns to your behavior, and while I know everyone is capable of change, I also know how difficult it is to genuinely do so. At the end of the day, words are just words.
I don't like getting involved in these unban requests, or any of the "drama" that happens in this forum, so it may as well be the first and last time I do so. Nevertheless, this is not my decision. I quite like being wrong and/or surprised by people, so I wish you luck whether its in-game or out there IRL.
