Reason for Ban: Insulting another player
Additional Comments:
In the comments, someone said to the player "Mario Gaming", who was doing VERY WELL in the match, something along the lines of
"por que tienes tu perfil privado? tenes miedo que vean que eres in perdedor?"
To which I replied:
"no, veran que es un predador"

I got muted like 5 minutes after this. Note that you can pull up ANY Spanish dictionary, the word "predador" means a predator as in an animal that hunts, it does NOT mean the same as it does in English (sexual abuser).

And it was in this sense that I meant it. Mario was in my team and doing very well, like an apex predator. Please, if you do not speak a language, do not try to judge it based on another language just because you think a word sounds similar to one you know. This is not how linguistics work. Do not perform word-for-word translations and expect them to be accurate. Running an EU server means being prepared for people who speak other languages, or at least, if in doubt, giving them a chance to explain themselves, or letting a multilingual moderator handle it.
