broken appeal system

do staff have to record modified kb? probably yes, but if not, probably should

 

uh if some1 is flying just ban loll no need to record that ****

 

Yes, staff should have to record as it is one of those more controversial topics with all the different ways to reduce kb. Not sure how many do though.
As for the appeal, not sure what got you banned but there is a chance it could have been a player report and therefore you were given no proof out of privacy.

 

what's the point in the appeal system if you aren't allowed to view what got you banned

the appeal system is completely broken in terms of false bans for hacking. you get false banned for blink or xray? you get no proof or date as to when it happened, so you can't even defend yourself. the only use for the appeal system as of now is for people who have been banned for a while and claim that they "changed" after they admitted to hacking. if you got false banned for cheating and you weren't recording your POV you're basically ****ed.

a way to fix the "privacy" issue is to have the staff reupload the video on a private youtube account, and blur out player names in the tab. if no staff members know how to make a basic edit to a video for whatever reason, have someone from the media team commit to that seeing as how most of them do nothing currently.

 

i know the video, and it's the same kb i take omegalul

edit: cant show vid cause im not a scumbag but it should be shared because of the person who recorded it, all i gotta say

 

This probably doesn't help anyone's case on why some proof gets a denial of being shared... What if this was to happen to one of our players? We cannot risk a player getting harassment from others because they recorded evidence to get someone banned.

Drawing more attention to a ban doesn't help to prove or gather evidence for yourself, it causes players to flame, get angry and heated without knowing the full situation themselves. I understand you may not like the factor of not being able to see the evidence of your ban from my own experience but I also understand you have to respect the decision of players not wanting to share proof especially towards people who harass players, are toxic and admit to wanting to humiliate them on a thread.

 

I mean let's be real here I've been banned for some stupid **** but getting banned by a KitBrawl mod when I was playing Anchor on HG was pretty funny, plus I was once banned for autosoup and after being shown the evidence you could see I didn't even open my inventory (it was a one-bar fight). Personally a replay system would be pretty good for that kind of ban - save the replay and, if the ban is appealed within 14 days, it can be shown.

 

Yes, the real world has criticism and people who harass others. That doesn't take away the factor of an individual being less capable or not wanting harassment.

 

how is he gonna try to go against his ban if he cant see the video, anyways I have the clips recorded of my own pov after being told to "clip it" i can show him lmao

 

I suggest you do what I suggested:

 

staff members shouldn't be uploading hours of footage, they should either only upload the part that got the player banned or put a timestamp on when it happened. if there's a timestamp, it's easy to just edit everything else out and then blur the rest out. as for the "they might remember" part, most people are going to remember either way, there's no stopping this. so there's literally no point in not giving out evidence with names blurred, because otherwise there's no point in the appeal system for false bans.
