I would very much like to appeal my ban. The reason I haven't done so earlier is the fact that my PC broke down due to water damage in 2021 soon after the initial provisional unbanning took effect. I am still not in possession of a PC but would still like to finally take care of this matter.

I don't know if anyone still remembers me or the reason for my ban but suffice it to say it was first and foremost due to my misdemeanour towards silvia and I suppose me not passing the criteria set for the extended probation period that I had entered shortly before my ban became finalised.

Just skimming the forums now after all this time has passed I figure some people responsible for the administration of the server were also becoming distrustful of me due to suspected cheating. I find it important to bring this point up since in spite of it not playing an official role for my ban I had already picked up on some of that distrust and often thought the atmosphere was poisoned but no one dared mention the elephant in the room.

I therefore want to reassure you I wasn't cheating back then nor plan to ever do so in thr future. I suffered and still suffer from severe OCD and the game served as a sort of escapism and it is a game I had already been playing for many years, I began playing it before hitting even puberty and it effectively taught me the English language and I spent 1000s upon 1000s of hours of playing it and eventually developed extraordinary skills, especially in terms of air combat.

I bring this up not because of some narcissistic pride or some such but rather as an explanation why sometimes I could have really good games which I was able to develop at the expense of ignoring often more important and pressing matters in life which thereby often went neglected.

I can provide a link to my Steam account as a sign of good faith, even if only circumstantial, will show you I've never had a VAC ban and own 100s of games. I thought it important to go into this issue at length because whatever you decide, I wouldn't want to have that kind of distrustful and thick astmosphere clouding up what should be a fun game again as it was back then.

I ask you to weigh all the presented arguments carefully and implore you to please unban meI would very much like to appeal my ban.

Hello Phallic,

We have decided as a collective to remove your ban.

Bear in mind this is probationary based on behaviour.

Welcome back and look forward to seeing you in game. Even the cheapest of computers can run BFV these days.

Cheers, LTShaun.

Silvia left this server in 2021 and didn't really come back. She said you were one of the players responsible for her leaving this server. I'm not sure what happened. Do you remember?

It's ironic that Silvia and Tina left at the same time your PC broke down. I hope they return as you have.

I'm glad you're back, but where is Signifier 😜

Hey, man.

All I can say is that while I was banned I didn't play on Hello covertly but whether there may have been some people with similar playstyle or mannerisms that gave room for that assumption I can't say.

As for what happened in 2018, all I can say is that I apologised to Silvia shortly after appealing this ban and I've been having some great rounds with her as a pilot since I am right now better suited as a co-pilot due to playing on a touchscreen and as such I sure didn't mind having her around as a capable and skilled pilot.

@silvia I hope you read this. It maybe a misunderstanding.

Thanks, man. I really appreciate it but I've actually saved up quite a bit and I am waiting for this new AMD CPU to become widely available and once it does I am gonna build a new system around it, using the integrated graphics for now, which means no distraction by newer games since they won't run too well on it anyway haha. I'll be able to direct all my focus towards the classics, especially BFV.

Es cierto.
Lo primero agradezco sus disculpas. Phall
lo segundo las acepto.
Coincidimos en el servidor de Power...necesitamos solo 2 minutos para arreglar las diferencias.
Me parecieron expontaneas y sinceras por eso ACEPTE. Durante el tiempo que estuvimos jugando tuvimos un ambiente sano. Por mi parte lo pasado esta perdonado.
Lo he comentado con otros jugadores auqnue nos odiavamos a muerte pero siempre te reconoci que fuiste quien me enseño a conducir los helis me diste consejos etc etc y para mi opinion eres el mejor piloto ( despues de mi obvio ) .
Te agradezco las disculpas Phall .Por mi esta olvidado.

No voy mencionar a phall .porque no quiero ensuciar lo que acabamos de arreglar.
Hubo dos personas que nos acosaron principalmente a mi y a otra persona por jugar conmigo.no voy a decir su nombre.(imagino que los administradores lo saben porque de todo informe a antiguos admin) Aquello ocurrio en hello y en otros servidores Y uno de ellos era jibi radikal etc etc nombres varios..pero era el mismo . yo me iva a otros servidores y me seguian .
El momento mas cruel fue cuando en un servidor jugaba el admin vio el acosode jibi o radikal y la otra persona y los expulsaba ..eso cuando estaba el admin ..el admin tomo la decision de hacerme admin tambien asi cuando estaba sola poder defenderme... consecuencia? decidieron romperle el servidor.

Todo esto se lo informe al admin de hello y lo que ocurrio en youtube tambien . (lo de youtube es algo al margen de mi pero es sobre el acoso que recibio X persona que jugaba aqui no voy a hablar mas sobre esto .si algun admin quiere preguntar soobre ello me lo diga en privado y se lo explico)

NO hubo ningun mal entendido. de hecho se tomaron medidas por lo sucedido, y repito con Phall lo solucionamos en 2 minutos ,phall puede confirmarlo solo necesitamos 2 minutos.

CON jibi radikal o el nombre que use..espero y deseo que no se le acepte jugar . Al chico que le rompieron el servidor y nunca mas volvio a tener el servidor...¿que error cometio ese chico? Permitirme jugar..Lo siento no se merece le permitan jugar .

Don't worry, you aren't the only player who has caused players to quit the game.

@Pinky

If I have done so before my original ban then I feel genuinely sorry but honestly I gain the impression this comment of yours wasn't entirely in good faith and comes across as passive-aggressive.

I haven't been evading my ban through the years and thus I don't know what happened after that on the server and I really have no reason to lie about this.

Yeah, it's just that initially I didn't want to start playing again any time soon, but sometimes I get these memories of old times playing this game and I figured it couldn't hurt to attempt to appeal my ban after having been offered the opportunity already back 3 years ago knowing full well whatever the verdict may be it'd be a rather long time till I'd actually be getting a proper PC again.

It's just impatience got the better of me and I tried getting it to run on my fairly capable tablet for the time being and even if my gameplay isn't competitive at all like this it's still fun. There are a plethora of capable solutions in terms of emulators, but right now I am using something called Winlator which is readily available on Github and actually very easy to set up once you figure out the basics. Tweaking the controls is actually the hardest part.

Thats wild you're playing BFV on a tablet. I can't imagine lol. Can you hook up a keyboard and mouse to the tablet or is it all touch-screen controls with the emulator?
I was also wondering the same thing 🧐

Keyboard may work but I haven't tried and have only been using the touchscreen for now, which means keys relevant for controls appear on the screen as a permanent overlay. Mouse support is limited for the most part as so it pertains to games.

Thats crazy dude. Can you take a screenshot or something and show us what that even looks like? I would get so frustrated trying to play an FPS on a tablet touch-screen controls, you have my praise 🤣

Sure, a view of my BFV folder running Winlator. Below an in-game picture showing the overlay. I've kept it minimal, but you can theoretically add as many keys as you want.
