You were banned from the OS for constantly losing your temper in large conversations and getting into fights. You were given quite a few chances to learn how to handle things better, but you couldn't seem to manage it. I'm not saying this to be patronizing or anything, either. Some people don't do well in big groups, and the OS can be frustrating to hang in when you have a million opinions coming from every which way at the same time before you even expressed what you really meant to say.
Anyhow, you
were responded to -- which is actually unusual, because usually if someone is banned we don't contact them unless we intend to unban them. I just explained it to you last month because I personally felt you might feel better if you understood the reasoning why we wouldn't accept otherwise perfectly fine appeals.
I know you read it because you acknowledged it, lol

Anyhow! Quoting directly from the appeal form, which people very rarely actually read, because it would explain most of this. "Bans are used on the SRB2 Message Board as corrective action, not a last resort. If you're a well-meaning person who can understand and follow the rules, we would love to have you back."
If you get banned for some silly off topic spamminess or something we're not looking to delete you from the place forever, we're just seeing if you're capable of
reading the form throroughly and responding with something along the lines of "Sorry, I got carried away and I shouldn't have ignored the mod warnings, didn't mean to be disruptive, won't do it again" and anything else they want to say. If expecting that sort of response seems like too much for us to ask, I don't know what to tell you all -- that's the bare minimum of being able to own up that we expect from ANY user on the server if they're being disruptive.
Never forget, it's a
13,000 member server and we're volunteers, so we like to keep things from getting out of hand before they get too far in, otherwise that's a waste of all of our time.
