In-Game name: Cortex
Time of Ban: 03:26
Date of Ban: 05-29-21
Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:50086532
Reason for Ban: Inappropriate Language
Hello. I'd like to ask you to investigate whether it is possible to change my entry ban to communications ban only, perhaps even for a longer period. I don't have anything against the blocking itself, it's absolutely fair and reasonable.
To give context: this is my second ban (the previous one was comms block for three days in February), and it was again because of my meltdown caused by HLStats. The meltdown itself was caused by an extremely bad luck of facing and dying to wrong players. I try to keep it as a rule to play until I get out of negative daily score, if I get into it. At the moment I was banned I had been playing for about three and a half hours trying to win my points back, but for the whole time I had been quite consistently 100-150 points down. I started raging at people after about two hours of my attempts. I fully understand, and even understood at that point, that it wasn't their fault, but all things considered (I was expecting no more than a mute for a week or two) I decided that going for insults and thus cooling down was overall the best option for me.
Language aside, I always play fair and never spoil other people's game (at least gameplaywise), no matter how hard I am frustrated. I suppose that you've banned me that way not to specifically stop me from joining your servers, but rather to better discourage me from talking like that. If that's the case, then, as I've mentioned, I would prefer to trade my ability to play on your servers for a longer mute period.
And speaking of discouraging: please let me know how long the next ban will last in case I get reported for bad language again, so I don't just hope for the best.
Thank you in advance for your time.
And sorry for mistakes, if any. I've done my best to proofread it, but I've probably missed some.
