[APPEAL] http://www.epicmafia.com/report/50618

I think that both the violation and the ban are exaggerated.

In terms of the violation, the main point is that that player just wanted an excuse to suicide. In the game he said "Then I'll veg and everyone will be angry." Whatever the case, if a player with 200 games played presses esc twice because that "will speed up the computer", I am not sure whether I should get a violation for trolling or he should get a violation for being stupid (and trolling himself). It is like suggesting (please understand the difference between 'suggesting' and 'coercing') someone to jump off a cliff. If the person does it, I will not be charged with murder unless I am in North Korea. Moderators must understand what 'agency' and 'free will' mean before saying that I 'caused' that player's suicide. There is a clear difference between 'correlation' and 'causation'. My 'press esc twice to speed up your pc' joke is correlated to the player's OWN DECISION to do so but did not cause it. In other terms, I did not 'cause' his suicide, because there was no coercion on my side and he freely choose to press esc twice - I add here, knowing that it would cause a suicide.

In terms of the ban, I think that this should be lifted for the main reason that I never received a warning that another violation would cause a ban.
