That's covered in his indef ban thread. That's all that for this thread.

should have read moar, thanks!

We can't even see it because the indef ban request board is restricted to admins.
May you please repost it here so us operators can see it?

Vouch
So will you state the truth? You are most likely talking about when I found an exploit in plan to manipulate join IPS by editing /etc/hosts, I admit I abused this, but targeting you? This wasn't me and I know who it was. But you don't do any thorough research. Did you actually research any of this? I don't have any problems with you, Ryan, but this is totally unjustified lol. I'm starting to think that this happened because some particular staff have a disliking towards me and I know who you are. I don't care much for the hub mod role, but I do care for the fact I'm banned. In a community I cared for and most of my friends are from here, I would rather just be unbanned than anything else, but that's your decision, a decision that I know what way will swing.
Disappointing lmfao
ps if I even did anything bad why am I banned now and not 3 months ago?
Why does this keep happening? And why is moderation so opaque now? You'd expect for there to be a public explanation for the indeffing / global ban of a staff member.
I know who it was
Why wouldn't you tell us who it was then? This is starting to sound like a _TheRedX situation all over again where he said he knew who it was when that shit was going on but refused to tell us.
this is really confusing to those who can't see the indef ban thread and the fact that ginlang is tryna twist this to some mysterious person we may never know about
I normally don't reply to threads like this expressing my concerns, but this is one I would like to speak up about. I've read the thread detailing the reason, and as the one who suspended ginlang from the Admin ranks many months ago, I have to say I'm both confused and concerned about this lack of transparency in the handling of the case.
If you recall correctly, back in April I created a thread where I detailed the exact reason of why ginlang was suspended, how I investigated the case, and even included evidence of the leaks proving it was him. It was textbook-level transparency. Contrast it to this case, where he was suspended and indefinitely banned under an extremely vague reason in the public's eye with essentially no warning. This frightens me.
In my personal opinion, players should know the exact reason they are sanctioned for, and quite frankly a suspension and indefinite ban with vague reasoning sets a bad precedent. It would be much wiser to be transparent with this, else you risk losing the trust this community puts in its management.
On a side note: Why is it that whenever I sleep during the day, some absolutely crazy shit like this always happens?

This 100%. The lack of transparency here is pathetic.

iirc I actually did tell video who it was ages ago, but I'll say it here too. It's most likely Sperience and his friends who did that

I have stated the truth, the conduct policy parts you violated are listed here. Unfortunately all of the content in question is from your uuid so if you didn't do it, you gave someone your account to do this with and ultimately you're responsible for what actions are done with your account.
I have no idea on whatever other conflicts you may have with people on this server, and your ban reason is exactly as it was stated. You're the first under this grouping but won't be the last.
You're banned now because I only noticed the issue while trying to fix some thing else and had to go through the database to find the exact culprit.
