Your appeal:

First of all, I apologize for my previous appeal. I misunderstood the appeal procedure, acted hastily, and was honestly upset, leading me to submit it at the wrong time and with incorrect tags. I’m sorry for this mistake.

As more than a year has passed, I’ve honestly forgotten most of the details of what happened back then. For in-game evidence, you can refer to my previous appeal.

I’ve thought many times about how I should write this appeal. I was frustrated that my previous appeal was rejected due to my own errors. I tried to imagine how to write a new one correctly and worried about what I would do if this one were also rejected.

When 180 days passed, I attempted to draft an appeal but abandoned it, unsatisfied with the result. I was afraid that if I made a mistake, it would hurt my chances further. After a few months, I tried again but left it unfinished for the same reason. I read many appeals from others who had been permanently banned, where they admitted their mistakes and asked for forgiveness. I wondered whether I should write something more likely to be accepted or if I should be honest about what I believe.

Today, in a Discord channel, I saw someone post a gif of a marine throwing a HE grenade, and it reminded me of how much I miss my time on your server. It’s frustrating to realize that I’m labeled a cheater on a server where I had so many good experiences and memories. So, I’ve finally decided to write what I truly think. If I’m failed, at least I won’t hold on to false hope.

I have never used any cheats while playing on your server or any other online game, whether on Steam or elsewhere. I don’t even know how cheats work in SS13 or how I could have modified my client. Therefore, I can’t explain how I might have cheated because I sincerely believe I didn’t. But I don’t know how I can prove my innocence unless my words.

At the same time, I understand that you have little reason to trust me after I was permabanned, even if it was a mistake. As an admin of a regiment (guild) server in Foxhole, I know how serious the consequences of cheating or having an alternate account in the opposite faction can be, and how little time you have to address each case when dealing with dozens or even hundreds of people.

But still I have hope to once more wake up from cryo on Almayre, so I ask you: What can I do to prove my goodwill and address your concerns? I’m willing to answer any questions you may have, will try my best to do what you say, and will patiently wait for your decision.

Hi there, I’ll be handling your appeal. I know it’s been a year and some months, but can you remember what kind of gear you were using? Was their any unique part to your kit? Besides the stuff you mentioned in your previous appeal, of course.

Thank you very much for your time!

I remember that I had light armor, and most likely medical HUD, few HEDP grenades from requisition and motion detector. In most of my games before, I usually take HUD and detector for points then ask in requisition for grenades and weapon attachments. Also I usually take satchel for nades, flares and motion detector

Appeal Approved


Hello @Goodwin251, After thorough investigation, I have decided to lift your ban. The admins of yore were sure that you were cheating, but you have maintaned your innocence. With that said, if you are found doing anything fishy in the future you will net yourself another permaban.


Make sure to catch up on our rules so that you don’t get into any trouble upon rejoining CM-SS13 Rules
