At the time I said that, I believed that malumoroni was alive but after consideration I realized that he probably died after he rdmed me because he rdmed me in proximity to other people. Malumoroni then left the server shortly after he responded to my report on him after he rdmed me (http://www.dinklebergsgmod.com/site/show...p?tid=2918) if I remember correctly. Therefore if he left there would have been blatant proof of him being a traitor regardless of my "ghosting".
I don't understand. First off there is no gray area with ghosting. You either gave information that someone would not have had otherwise, or you didn't. You clearly admit to doing that. "At the time I said that, I believed that malumoroni was alive but after consideration I realized that he probably died after he rdmed me because he rdmed me in proximity to other people." So again, you've admitted to telling someone that someone is a Traitor while they're alive. You're just digging a deeper hole. "Therefore if he left there would have been blatant proof of him being a traitor regardless of my "ghosting"." Not necessarily. His body might not have been identified yet, he could have jumped off the map and left, so his body would have never been identified. And again, if you sent the message before he left (which is clearly the case because you said told someone to "kill em"), you ghosted.
That being said, is a perma ban a little harsh? Not really, those are the rules, but I've seen you on a decent amount, and I do think a reduction would be fine. Nothing short of two months though. You blatantly broke the rules.

I understand I did that with malicious intent but why does what I did count as ghosting and not attempted ghosting? I did zero damages to any party involved.
Sure. If you're dead, you shouldn't be telling those who are alive who to kill. There's a reason why there are two separate chat and voice systems, one for those who are alive and one for those who are dead. And again, there's no such thing as attempted ghosting. You either ghosted or you didn't. Oh, and you did do a lot of damages to the parties involved. You're banned. You ruined another player's T round (albeit he was an RDMer), and you gave information to a player that they might not have known otherwise. 3/3 m8!
