Your appeal:

First things first: I’m a Linux user.

Somewhere around year(+/-) ago I was trying to run BYOND in Virtual Machine with inactivated copy of Windows 7 from Microsoft website and was joining most of major servers to look which ones works. Sadly, attempt was mostly unsuccessful. Also I was also attempting to run the BYOND through the Wine (tool that kinda emulates Windows to run Windows apps.)

And I was trying to do that on my now older account. (Or i think so)

After some tries I got Sticky banned (have no screenshots) and later on (I forgot i was banned) Community banned by host (my not attached screenshot says 2023-12-07) with Bancode REF-10MAY2020-C163SN.

At the time I seen no reason to appeal for a ban removal, because the SS13 was not working properly. I was stupid and still is.

Now, with BYOND beta 516 i can run the game on Linux without using VM. And once again I was joining most of the servers to see which one works.

And the problem is - i have a new account now, the game works (should to, cant check if true) on wine without using VM and im banned. Hope this wall of text was not too hard to read. Sorry for being stupid and have a nice day.

Sincerely, Tunguso4ka.

tldr: Linux User, tried running game through VM and Wine, was banned for VM and was community banned (REF-10MAY2020-C163SN). Please, can I be unbanned? Thanks.

Hey there, @Tunguso4ka!

I lifted your sticky ban, you can join the server now. Please let us know if you get caught in another sticky ban. I will leave the post open, so you can reply to me if this happens again.
