I'm with iGrok in relation to meapak. If meapak wants the ban gone he should appeal. Clearly some shit was going down to ask to be banned from TL, but he requested it. Sure mafia wasn't his top priority, but he was in a sane enough mind to be asked to be banned? Why ask to be banned anyway...And he is a big part of the TL Mafia community, he should of had enough of a thought to message someone here. Also, he could of posted in here and said something before going.
Points to be taken, iGrok is right, Meapak went inactive in his game, ban or no ban inactivity would still warrant a ban via our mafia ban list. He should also have some right to defend himself and appeal his ban, and that should be taken up with iGrok when he gets back. Next, if iGrok doesn't like it, THEN allow him to appeal. But we should have him banned until iGrok decides on Meapak's fate. No one should be appealing for him as of yet.
I guess I'll have the dissenting opinion on this.

Honestly RoL, I thought he was doing that as a joke....
edit: Banning you that is.

Yeah, IMO a warning would suffice. But then again, apparently my opinion doesn't mean shit

But a hosts opinion if irrational needs to have some sort of balancing power so your say isn't final if its really controversial.

Is calling for 2 games instead of 1 when Meapak was demonstrably on TL and could have informed the host an irrational opinion?
More so should be that an inactivity ban is not applied until the player is present again

Well 2 games I wouldn't think is that bad considering the options. But at first you were requesting a maximum ban which is like 5 games, which for a non behavior offense is a bit extreme.

However, Meapak is listed under super secret probation. Why?

I actually think the Meapak situation should be resolved sooner than later, while the event is still fresh. If we wait, then it's likely people will be a lot more lenient due to the time that has passed, and there's the potential iGrok won't be around when he was the host originally asking for an extended ban.
I think if anything, we should decide on the length of the ban in Meapak's absence, and then when he returns, give him the opportunity to appeal it if he was facing extraordinary circumstances that wouldn't allow him to notify the host that he was withdrawing from the game. As well, we don't even know if he'll come back or not after his ban is over, or if he'll end up asking for it to be reduced. So, it seems better to have some initial ban length set, and then we can return to this later if we have to. Meapak even can't sit out any games until he gets back to TL, and in that case, he can make the decision to just take the punishment, or try to get it changed. So, having a ban number doesn't change much until he gets back, and avoids complications that not setting one could introduce.
I say treat him like any other player who simply disappeared during a game and we don't know where they are.

Well, I'd say a two game is pretty fair if he signed up to play a game, then just randomly requested a TL ban for no apparent reason without informing the host, and iGrok, all my posts relating to it were when you were requesting a 5 game ban or something.

Newbie Mini Mafia III has ended, and the only modkill was TheFearedBeing, who signed up to play but never made a post after the game began. He should get the usual one-game ban, though I have my doubts that he's coming back anytime soon.

Why did you put Hammer or Mini on the list? Newbie 3 is finished.

We get it you are annoyed that no one backed your 5 game ban and then you move it to two and no one has gotten around to fixing it. I think most can agree two game ban is fair, give it to him and let's all come back to it if meapak wishes to appeal a 1 game instead of 2.

I haven't given my opinion up to this point but I'm honestly somewhat offended that Meapak did this. It takes all of thirty seconds to post "real life problems, have to go sorry" in a thread or as a PM to somebody. Though if it were a unilateral decision for me to make, I would only give him the regular ban. Unless we're playing favorites, there really is no difference between him going inactive and some first-timer going inactive. Justice is blind.
Though more people said to deal with it after Meapak comes back, so that's where he is right now.

Okay.

I went 24 hours without posting because I had shit to do and a day cycle is 48-72 hours, so I never went a full day cycle without posting. I have to sleep then work for 8 hours then usually had stuff to do afterwards. I wasn't by any means inactive with 4-5 pages of filter. You need to look at the whole, not a specific instance for inactivity. I could probably find several end game players with less posts than me.
Once again, a long day and I come home write a post and fuck up tags. It was a huge post. I went into the edit screen to copy it and was trying to preview the post and hit the wrong button. A simple mistake.
The picture thing, well I guess you have me there. but all I posted when I died with "gg gl" which doesn't do anything to effect the game. While ultimately I don't really care how this ends up since I am not playing for the next four months rules should be flexible, not rigid. Nothing I did negatively effected the game and none of it was done with any level of malice. In those scenarios trying to ban a player is silly and doing it simply off principle is ridiculous. It's banning for the sake of banning and enforcing arbitrary rules.
As an aside, every rule I broke was outside the realms of normality and while ignorance isn't an excuse for breaking a rule, it does infer that the rule is silly. It's like me putting a rule in Hammer that you can't use mafia acronyms/slang and banning for it. You managed to break four of the games rules, and expect to get out of it scot free? You should have respected the host and complied to the rules of the game. I support a ban.
On Meapak, ban now, and force him to follow it up.
