I would say it wasn't accidental, but moreso an immediate regret on your action. You went from shooting the dude to throwing a nade because you weren't hitting him much. From my viewpoint in the recording you definitely meant to throw the nade. Regardless of intent, it was still massRDM.

i used to manage a server and offenses like this where very minor and only constituted a verbal and ingame warning unless continued and even then it was only like 1-2 day ban as long as none of the other server rules where broken.
Regardless of the context, it does not matter how other servers have their rules enforced, ours are laid out clearly with the punishments alongside them listed in the !motd or by following the link here ->
Depending on what was said, his may have warranted a ban for harassment if he continually harassed, whereas they stopped. Fighting in OOC should not be a thing regardless, however different situations call for different outcomes. Consistently causing issues in OOC with other players can be seen as harassment and warrant a ban, and is ultimately up to admin discretion to prevent toxicity in the community. Regarding "only dropping 9 or so insults in OOC" that is far to many, and I would have issued the same punishment. As far as the warning system goes, if you are found breaking a rule that warrants a ban, the ban is issued alongside the warn.

Hey, my apologies for the late reply, I've been at work. As the admin who banned you, I can assure you that given your behavior in the brief time I watched you, and the numerous reports that were flooding in, your "I will act as a good boy and follow the rules" is highly doubted. Considering what I was able to observe was a fraction of what happened, I can only assume that worse, or at the very least things along the lines of what happened in my clip were said as well.
My initial report which unfortunately does not have a clip involved you making comments about a navy using their tentacles inappropriately, which is when I hopped over to spectate. Given that in the span of 2 minutes you talked about pissing on someone, and were trying to ERP by getting them to "spread them cheeks" under the sink in cafeteria under the guise of a "map secret", it's clear you were there to cause issues. When troopers got called to briefing as I was about to pull you into a sit, you asked in ooc "can my cock and balls come too?" When pulled into the sit, you proceeded to tell me "I didn't do any of that", and that "People are lying." When told I recorded you doing so, and that I personally watched it, you told me "It was just a joke." I explained it goes directly against server rules, and that you would be getting banned as stated within them.
On top of all of this, your defense of not being given a warning despite being asked numerous times by Wren and other people to stop with your at the time borderline actions is false. Regardless of receiving a warning, you broke the rules which warrants a week ban, I would highly recommend clicking the hyperlink in Wren's message or typing !motd and reading through the rules the next time you are on the server.

Hey! So I am the staff who banned you. As stated in our sit there were multiple factors that went into your ban.
First off, due to rules against sexual content on the server, that in itself is a bannable offense. I understand that accidents happen, however due to the circumstances involved I can assure you if it was an accident as you claimed you clearly did not do anything to attempt to fix the situation.
First of all, nothing was said to attempt to get an admin to move it off of the TV and you sat there watching it for a solid minute and 20 seconds before someone caught it and skipped the video, and said nothing to the group you were standing in but were looking around apparently to gauge reactions to the video you put in as shown here https://youtu.be/vvxjgifcj6Q Had this truly been an accident you would have tried to message someone in admin chat or said something rather than looking around at everyone watching the video.
Your story also doesn't add up, as you kept saying you were watching in shock and awe at what you put on the TV, and yet when I pulled you into a sit you acted surprised that you had put that on there as shown in the video attached.
Your reasoning behind trying to play 2020 Portrayed by Marvel is extremely unlikely, as you would have had to click that video, then paste the URL you had "copied" in the bar and then click submit to play the video. I understand wanting to meme and such, but content like this does not belong on the server. Furthermore, when I brought you to a sit, you attempted to argue with me regarding people reading/following the rules, stating nobody reads them and that the !motd was message of the day, not the rules. After being told I doubted your story you demanded to speak with my higher up and my manager, and after bringing a second opinion in the form of Wren to humor your request, you attempted to get me to stop talking when I was relaying to him what I had said to you regarding your statements. When that didn't work, you attempted to have Wren take you to a different sit due to the sit not going to your liking, and after he said it was my sit you proceeded to ask him if you were getting banned. Due to his answer, you stated several times that you were going to appeal this on the forums and that it was ridiculous.
Normally I understand mistakes happen, and if it were just a slight slip in the video I'd be giving you a talking to rather than a ban and warning you about putting inappropriate videos on the TV. However, due to not only the video, but the inconsistencies in your story, and your reaction to the situation, I have no doubt that it wasn't accidental.
I would strongly advise that you browse for your videos through the media player rather than using your clipboard in the future to prevent any sort of issue similar to this in the future.

I played ZPS waaay back when it used to be super popular. I'd love an opportunity to help build a community on there, and can be relatively active in the evenings during peak hours (9:30pm est-1am est) I'm familiar and fluent with Source and have worked my way up to senior admin on the CWRP server. Keeping order on the server will help it grow, and I'd like to be a part of that if possible. Thanks for the consideration, alongside the server!
