[CS:S ALL/CS:GO ZM] Protest a punishment: "Slick"Desgrieux

["Slick"Desgrieux]

Gamemode [CS:S ALL/CS:GO ZM]

Ingame name "Slick" Desgrieux

SteamID bushco

Ban/Gag reason Rejoin

Desired outcome Lift my punishment

Statement of grounds
I was recently punished in-game for perceived Rejoin Abuse on the ZM Hunt Server on 3/14/2026 around 10:00AM by an admin I normally respect and appreciate. The punishment was over a misunderstanding wherein I legitimately accidentally rejoined while changing my personal game settings
The punishment I received was minor and irrelevant but both the admin and various [Discord] Members were needlessly rude to me. I'm not looking for any corrective actions I just wanted to note my disappointment

Hey Slick, welcome to our forum.

I told you that there is no "legitimately" rejoin, also not for changing your settings.
I also asked you how you "accidentally" rejoin.

I wasnt rude, i was direct, just like now.

 

["Slick"Desgrieux]

Dhoudz,
I didn't rejoin at all. While changing settings I accidentally pressed "Connect" instead of "Apply" as I explained to you at the time. You and others said that I had bound rejoin to a certain key implying that I'm a cheater, which I found rude
Thank you for your response

Hey,

By accident or not, you DID rejoin.

You and others said that I had bound rejoin to a certain key implying that I'm a cheater, which I found rude

Some assumed you bind a key. And someone asked if macros are banned (see below).
My adminchat is missing. I asked, why would someone bind a key to rejoin.
None of this was rude, they were just chatting. Sorry if this bothers you, but i wont do anything about it.

I don't want anything to be done about it. My feelings got hurt and so I posted the OP to feel better.
Thank you for the clarity and the work you do in the server
