I am writing to formally address my recent ban from Flux.TF, which I believe was unjustly initiated by two users, ehfestiveguy and blooga, through abuse of the report system. I have been an faithful visitor of the Flux.TF servers for over three years and have consistently adhered to the rules and values of the servers. Throughout this time, I have never been accused of any behavior that would warrant such a severe penalty.

The accusation of aimbotting against me appears to have been made without evidence or substantial proof. It is my belief that this claim was driven by personal animosity rather than factual observations, undermining the integrity of the report system.

I kindly request a thorough review of the circumstances surrounding this ban, including an evaluation of any evidence provided (if applicable). I am confident that a fair investigation will demonstrate that these accusations are baseless and that my conduct within the Flux.TF community has always been respectful and in good faith.

Thank you for taking the time to consider my appeal.

Howdy Average, i was the one who banned ya, i got proof, it was a ticket, number I belive 282, video of u shooting an invis spy, though other staff will review it, and go over my decision. Though, I don't remember who made the ticket, gotta wait on cash to give me the name. So no worries, the ban will be reviewed fairly! Hopefully, I did not make a misjudgment, but I am nowhere near perfect.

Festive God, in my defense, considering the apparent haste behind your decision to ban me based on the evidence at hand, I must address the following points:

I maintain that the evidence presented—namely, the video footage purportedly implicating me—is insufficient and inconclusive when evaluated against the circumstantial factors relevant to the alleged incident of my shooting the spy. The following considerations underscore this assertion:

1. Coincidence in the Spy’s Death
   The elimination of an invisible spy, without prior knowledge of their exact position, may be attributed to coincidence. While such an occurrence may appear suspicious, it cannot be regarded as definitive proof of intentional targeting or guilt.
2. Characteristics of Weaponry Utilized
   The weapon employed in the referenced incident—the rapid-fire x1000 shotgun—possesses unique attributes conducive to a wide dispersion of projectiles, especially within enclosed environments. This inherent capability increases the likelihood of striking stationary or minimally mobile targets, such as an invisible spy, without deliberate aim.
3. Environmental and Contextual Cues
   It is well-documented that spies, even while invisible, can inadvertently reveal their position through audible cues, such as footsteps or repeated use of voice lines. When combined with the aforementioned weapon's area-of-effect capabilities, such cues could naturally lead to an exploratory fire that unintentionally neutralizes the spy’s location.

Taken together, these factors establish that the evidence provided, while ostensibly implicating, fails to conclusively establish deliberate intent or culpability on my part. As such, the argument against me lacks sufficient foundation to assert guilt beyond reasonable doubt. Again, I strenuously request that at least one or more separate moderators thoroughly review the circumstances surrounding this ban, including an evaluation of the evidence provided while keeping in mind the points I have provided in my defense shown above.

Lastly, In adherence to the principle of Discovery and to ensure I can adequately defend my position, I formally request that you provide me access to the video evidence in question. Doing so will facilitate a more expedient and thorough resolution of this matter.

Hello Average,

I'm looking into this appeal myself now. I'd like to reach out via Discord. If you have a minute, send me a message.

Your ban has been lifted due to insufficient evidence.

I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you.
