You're right instead of working on solving the issue with hackers, we'll just drop that and work on the dono goal

Itll cost you a ban, cause the only way you can get an unarmed ghosthawk is stealing one from a sr rnr member

Lol, then leave the area. Unless you're trying to fight cops near an hq, its gonna take them at least a couple of minutes to get back (referencing most processors and rebel outposts).

Tazer script is being fixed, first of all. Second of all, anyone that has held the position of cpl or higher can tell you cop can get expensive. Third of all, just cause cops dont lose much money doesnt mean they are supposed to lose every fight.

I would consider cop nlr the day that cops and rebels are on an equal playing field, cops are at a gear disadvantage (for the most part), a strategic disadvantage (there are a shit ton of cops, good luck organizing a group of people that have never talked before on a consistent basis), a rules disadvantage (cops are pretty much always limited by the rules and handbook), and a tactical disadvantage (for the most part cops are always pushing). Im all for balance, but this ain't it chief.

Lol, dont think people understand the irony

Im on it.

If I were in your shoes and you dont believe you did anything wrong after reviewing the evidence and youve been waiting for a while in TS, just put admin+ or even mod+ in your name while in the ban center and, if I see that and im on TS, I will usually try to answer any questions on it the ban (like what exactly you were banned for) and if I can't see anything wrong with the evidence or if you can provide evidence that would completely invalidate the original banning evidence, then I would most likely reach out to the banning staff member myself. As for the stepping on toes, like I said if it's something that is clearly not ban worthy then a higher ranking staff member reserves the right to lift the ban, however, if the ban is valid in any capacity, then the banning staff member is most likely going to retain the appeal, it's not really a politics thing, but more of a courtesy thing (nobody on staff is out to big dick someone else on staff).

Sorry that you haven't had a great experience with our appeal system, personally I will at least try to check for appeals assigned to me a few times a day. However, for most staff, Olympus is not the top priority in their lives and schedules can fluctuate, so response time will always be different. Appeals for shorter bans can be tricky to resolve during the ban sometimes (dependent on when the appeal is submitted, time zones, and as I said earlier with schedules of both the staff member and player). However, that being said, it is still worth it in my opinion to appeal, even if it just means that your next ban won't be longer than it can be. On another note, the appeal system is certainly geared more towards longer bans. Also, staff members are easier to communicate with over the ticket system for the most part, since we don't need to be at our computer to respond to support tickets. As for your appeal specifically, your last response was 3 hours ago and that was after you replied 6 hours after his response, so that's not really a ridiculous wait time in my opinion. And as I stated earlier, staff aren't always available on TS on demand. Unless it's blatantly not a rule break, higher ranking staff members aren't going to step on other staff member's toes. Most of the time appeals depend on what the staff member deems appropriate (i.e. being lifted (usually when someone comps/offers comp right after the situation or provides a new video perspective provided), reduced (this is usually for slight misunderstandings, unintentional actions, staff member being lenient, etc), or no action taken (usually blatantly intentional/severe or a very poor attitude/complete lack of accepting responsibility in an appeal)). As for same level staff (mod-mod or admin-admin) lifting each other's bans, while technically it can happen it's more complicated and once again is only done if the ban was blatantly wrong.
