Banning :(

[super_sonic]

Hey..
I have just been racing in the CTRA Race 1 sever.
After a race i was discussing something with a fellow racer involving kart racing (nothing to do with lfs or any previous races)
During the conversation i swore and the sever kiked me out due to "abusive behaviour".
I was wondering if you could check my story out and arrange for me to be unbanned

Thanks Very Much

Hiya.. difficult to know what to tell you, without knowing your S2 licence name. Sorry.

my user name is matty-tee
and my screen name is Sonic

If you just swore and got auto-kicked you can rejoin straight away again, the penalty is basically loosing your race and the inconvenience of rejoining. To have actually got banned for swearing someone would have to report it, whoever examined the report would be likely to just give you a warning for a first offence anyway, seeing as you were on Race 1 a couple of hours ago it is safe to assume you haven't been banned because reports take time to process.

By the way you can log into the forum using your S2 username (you have to enter your username, not racer name exactly) and WEB password, it lets you have an avatar, sig and shows you as S2 licensed.

Is there a reason why you can't log in to the LFS forum as matty-tee? I can provide information about the situation, but I can only provide it to that LFS username.

Thats the thing.. nobody has reported.. and i havnt been kicked before due to abusive language.

I will quote the conversation and you could maybe work it out?

JKH: how you duin in supers?
Sonic: F****n S*** having a really bad year

Is it classed as abusive for using two swear words?
:(

Just for clarity, this is not why you can't enter the server. There is a report against you which was processed today. The reportID is #484.

Your lucky, if that had been my decision it would have been a life time ban + iB no questions asked :bananadea

Yeah I agree and from that example of driving I would not be surprised if he was a Demo Racer.

I wonder if the admin watched the whole race ?

I've gone ahead and closed the thread. It's arguably bad enough to lose access to the CTRA without everyone on the forum wagging their finger at you ;)
