Which administrator banned you:
zissou ( teamspeak name, didn't catch his in-game name.)
When were you banned?*:
11/11/2015 19:00 (roughly)
In game Name: Kevin
Why do you think you were banned?:
To Whom it may concern,
Unfortunately I was mistakenly banned from ahoy EU1 server this evening
This evening I joined the server and was playing in the tank.
To cut a long story short I was driving a tank when the user 'mikko' ( Who I do not know) got into the commader seat and started shooting at our own players who were about 500 meters in front of the tank.
I told mikko in vehicle chat he was shooting our own guys.. he got kicked by an admin then... ( I dont think he meant too since before he was kicked he was like 'oh crap I didnt mean too')
Anyway after this I could see a helicopter coming in to land near me so I drove to the heli to provide support for the ground troops.
I then started to drive towards the objective when a ground unit started to run to his left. He clipped the rear of my tank causing himself to get 'crushed' by my tank.
I in no way meant for this to happen and was not aiming for him. Please also note it was dark and using NVGs.
I stopped ,my tank to cover the injured ground unit with my tank in the hope that a medic would come and heal him.
Unfortunately the enemy AI jet blew me up.
At this point I was dying for a cup of tea (I am Irish and we love our tea) so I disconnected and left for about 10 minutes.
I then came back and decided to start playing again.
I logged in and want to drive the tank again so I made my way to the tank and got in.
At this point an admin typed in chat that If I did not respond that I would be banned.
I was really confused.
I asked why I would be banned but didn't get a straight answer ( at this point i didn't think the issue that happened before I logged off was anything to do with this and it didnt cross my mind)
I asked in chat why and what have I done but not real answer ..then I was banned.
I was very angry as I thought maybe I was mistaken for another user called Kevin or perhaps the admin was confused..
I then joined teamspeak in the hope to resolve the issue fast. While in teamspeak zissou explained that I had team killed and he said I team killed and that I logged off straight away to avoid a ban... This was in no way my intentions.
I would like too add that what happened with the injured ground unit happens allot in the game by mistakes..and I would have got out of my tank and tried to help the unit but I decided to stay in the tank ( until I got blown up and that is why I logged off..)
I am a mature 24 year old and I like to play tactically and have fun and engage with people while playing and I am in no way a team killer...
However I understand from zissou's point of view about the issue but I hope that my version of events will be taken seriously.
I also think who ever the ground unit was that was killed should have more sense to understand that I did not intentionally run him over,
he is the one that ran into the back of my tank from an angle :/
Why (in your personal opinion) should your ban be lifted?*:
As I have explained above it was a misfortune of events and felt I should have been given the opportunity to defend myself before being banned which I did not get.
Its a shame as I was looking forward to playing some ARMA on ahoy this evening after a hard days work
but I understand were the admins are coming from as its a hard job to know who to believe,
and I know you must get allot of team killers......
However in my case it was a complete accident. I didn't even feel guilty as I DID NOT run the ground unit over he ran into the rear of the tank which at that point arma decided he had be crushed.
Please don't ban me for a mistake and arma physics,
I look forward to playing more on ahoy.
Yours faithfully
Kevin J.
