    Description
    I was banned for attempting to crash the server. On All Trade 2 around 4:25 PST tons of people started doing the Mannrobics. I decided to join them just for fun. Sparky no clips through the wall and looks at all of us. Which was about 7-9 people. When he comes in most people split except me and three other people. Sparky joins us for 15 seconds until Eoj Charlie joins Blu. I was still dancing and then all of us dancing got banned for attempting to crash the server. Which was never my intent. I decided to join just to dance and have fun with other players. I in no means intented to damage the server in any way by doing Mannrobics with other players.

    Please provide any and/or all evidence we should know regarding your ban
    I have no intention to harm the server in any way. I did know about the other people that attempted to try and crash the server and they we're able to with 15 players. I wasn't attempting to do the same by joining the dance my sole purpose was to have fun and maybe get a screenshot for a background.

    Why should Harpoon consider unbanning you?
    I am a very active player and I am always positive and kind to staff members and other players. I have spent tons of time on this server trading and having fun. I never do anything against the rules that will get me banned and I never plan to start. I love playing on this server and I would never want to leave the kind and wonderful community that is Harpoon Gaming.

    Hello there.

    I must say, I agree with you. The Mannrobics is known to crash servers if enough people are doing it at the same time.
    Read @ bugs: https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Mannrobics

    To admins. Don't you think it's unfair to ban 15 people for supposedly "crashing servers," since it's very well known to do this thing? I find it absolutely disgusting and unprofessional to ban people this way without even knowing the facts! Shame on you.

    Goodbye.

    Normally I don't respond to open ended and ignorant posts that are meant to mislead. However, considering you are the following user:
    | steamname: GodRider
    | steam3ID: [U:1:88209385]
    | steamID32: STEAM_0:1:44104692
    | steamID64: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198048475113
    | customURL:
    | steamrep: http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198048475113

    And you were banned for crashing the server and are now trying to play innocent, let me point out that you were doing it intentionally. While I will entertain the idea that some may have been unaware, here's the chat logs from you in server:
    Jul 18, 2016 5:47:58 pm: will the server crash if everyone does the mannrobics?
    (People informed you that it would.)
    Jul 18, 2016 5:49:33 pm: everyone do the mannrobics
    (Then after the server crashed the first time, you said the following)
    Jul 18, 2016 5:54:01 pm: FUNNY, ISN'T IT
    (When others were asking what you were doing, you and others told them to join in to crash the server.)
    Jul 18, 2016 5:57:28 pm: DO IT

    Simply put, I don't care if you believe it disgusting and unprofessional, because you are clearly lying and trying to manipulate the facts. However, the fact of the matter is your lies won't remove your ban. If you intend to act like a condescending jackass try to actually have some facts, reasons, and truth on your side. Otherwise, you get shutdown by people who actually know what they're talking about. You can go ahead and find a new community to be part of, we have no interest in having you here.

    As for you @Bonqueefius, I was considering an appeal for you, however a quick glance at your chat logs shows this:
    Jul 18, 2016 6:21:40 pm: are we trying to crash it?
    Jul 18, 2016 6:21:24 pm: are we?

    So please explain that knowledge of knowing of intent with your claimed "innocence" here.

    I wanted to know if they were attempting to do so. If they were planning on doing so I would have stopped immediately not wanting to be apart of that situation. I apologize for not explaining what my intent was in full detail. If it was in chat and I missed the (maybe) numerous messages telling me that I apologize for my ignorance in that situation.
