Hello, I don't know where to post this so here it is. It's not technically a report, or an appeal because both of those have already been tried and its stated the final decision is in fact Final . However, I and my friends have no idea what else there is to do. We all love and enjoy hanging out on this server and having fun, but every know and then you get people that either ruin your mood or disrupt the entire roleplay scenario. In this specific instance, there were a group of people being transphobic making remarks like "I hate this trans" and "Women should so respect to men" I can't and wont reveal these players names in fear staff will take action against me even though these offenders got away without even a slap on the wrist.
We reported the person and not only did 2 people get away with everything but the person that made the report got in trouble for "mixing" despite the fact she was left no other choice, whenever she would walk away they would follow, whenever she asked them to stop ooc they wouldn't, they called the police and they just stood and watched. In this particular scenario the only option was to close the game, which is why rules are in place to make it so players have options, so they can keep playing and not disrupt player engagement. I personally believe its because the perp is an avid donator. This is unfair and unacceptable because the man that was being transphobic didn't even get in trouble for being transphobic he got in trouble for mixing aswell. Now I know what you're thinking. "make an appeal so an admin can look it over" We tried that and they came to the same conclusion. It's impossible, there's nothing to do and we're powerless.
The reason this guy got away with it (atleast publicly) was because he said "They didn't ask me to stop ooc so im allowed to" However the rules specifically state that you need OOC consent to make remarks like the ones stated in the scenario I described above. However any time that reason is brought up every staff, admin, or mod has looked over it. We had a conversation with an admin who looked at it and agreed with our side of the events but they were powerless to do anything aswell because the appeal wasn't hers to judge. I bring this to the forums to hopefully get some attention and spread awareness of this unfair behavior. This server should be welcoming to everyone from all walks of culture, however clearly there is some favoritism. If I could please get in contact with someone near the top of the command chain so to speak just to let me describe the events in great detail with proof it would mean a great deal. Thank you for reading I hope this reaches the right people.
