Temp Ban Ban Appeal: upinthyguts

[upinthygutz]

In-game Name upinthyguts

Have you cheated before? no

What's your side of the story as to why you were banned? bz-longtrang reported me for racism. he rammed me with a jet so i called him a "fucking jap" as dark humor, obviously. But as he has stated in chat before, he likes to mess with people with his power as bz member. my comment was a clear joke. i've been using bz servers for a long time now and become close to a lot of the players who frequent the servers as much as i do. i apologize if this was taken as a significant insult.

Why should we lift your ban? it was a joke that was taken out of context

Kick reason (from Battlelog) racism

I have checked and verified that I am not banned at https://bf4db.com Yes

You were issued a 1 day tempban due to already having two previous language violation infractions. While "jap" may not be in the filter itself, it is used as a derogatory racial term. We don't have an issue with banter and trash talking but please leave racism out of chat. Your ban expires in 21 hours.

But as he has stated in chat before, he likes to mess with people with his power as bz member.

And just for clarity, while I don't know what he said in chat, BZ members don't have any special powers or privileges over regular players nor are they exempt from the rules we enforce.

yea i said the world "jew" a couple times, i dont know why yall have that as an immediate kill/violation. its a legitimate term for a religous group. thats what the two previous violations were for. thanks anyway

Because "jew" is almost always used negatively, whereas if you were speaking of the religious group in that sort of context, you'd use "jewish" which isn't part of the language filter.
