• Please DO NOT post in a ban contest thread unless you are:
    1. The person banned or posting a ban request.
    2. Senior Staff.
    This is necessary to keep threads on-topic and uncluttered. Thank you.

    If you don't know why you were banned, you probably broke one of our server rules. Most bans are temporary except in the case of gross violations or repeated infractions.
  • We are aware of sporadic errors when browsing our site. This is an issue with our hosting provider and not something we can fix on our end. We are hopeful it will be resolved soon. ~VintagePC

[Resolved] Ban Appeal

Noob
In-Game name: firefish
Banning Admin: "Admin Deleted"
Time of Ban: 12:03
Date of Ban: 01/23/25
Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:587695373
Reason for Ban: Racism/Hate Speech
Additional Comments: Hello, I wanted to start off and apologize to the staff, the Vault F4 Community and fellow TF2 Classic players for taking part in what makes any community toxic. I was banned for Racism and hate speech. I am not proud of this nor does the excuse of raging/trying to troll and annoy players make this any better for myself. Its cringe, stupid, and ultimately led to me getting perma banned from a group of servers that I truly enjoed. TF2 Classic is going to be huge and explore in popularity on its Steam Release. I do not want to miss out on being a part of this community and being banned from the biggest server group in the game doesn't help.

I ask for the mercy of the admins and the Staff and ask y'all for a second opportunity in playing in this server again.
Thank you

Your appeal has been received, please give us a few days to review the specifics and get back to you.
 
On review your ban was issued because a spray you used in our servers contained a Nazi flag with a swastika.

I will direct your attention to Server Rule #3:
No hate speech or harassment is allowed. This includes (but is not limited to) racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, bullying, and use of racial, ethnic, and anti-LGBT slurs. Likewise, glorification of nazis, or use of nazi imagery and symbols, is grounds for an immediate permanent ban.

As your ban was issued in accordance with our posted rules and policies, it is ineligible for appeal at this time.

It will become eligible for appeal no sooner than one year from the date it was issued, at which point you may make a new appeal and we will reconsider the circumstances. For you, this would be on or after Jan 23, 2026.

It is unfortunate you had to learn about our rules the hard way, but we have a zero tolerance policy towards such imagery, especially considering that its use is illegal in Germany, where our EU servers are located.

Thank you for your understanding.
