Sorry about this. We do not support our staff banning people for long periods of time without actual proof. We will be having a discussion with shifty.
That being said, I'm going to deny the appeal for not following the format, HOWEVER after discussion with staff we've lowered your ban time to 2 days. If you could provide a copy of that dupe for testing and it proves to not causes crashes we'll get you unbanned ASAP.
If you have a staff complaint, please use the correct board for it, rather than adding it on to your ban appeal.
