Warnings are cool, right?

My account is one hiccup from getting perma banned, all because of one bad day about a month ago. I never got any warnings, i never got any chat restrictions. All I ever got was those pop-ups that just say you've been reported a lot. I've gotten those after /mute all as soon as the game started. for verbal abuse.

Not only are the other 4 who trolled and talked more shit than me not in any sort of trouble, but they seem to be more in the right than me because they were being toxic on their own and not responding with it.

I learned that for me to be esculated to a 2 week ban (AkA last warning) An employee had to manually look over my case and overrite the ban bot to give me a worse punishment. That means, this fucker saw the shit that was being said to me and for my first offence gave me a 2 week ban, 14 game chat restriction, and put my account one step away from gone forever.

I've made a ticket asking for help, and all they gave me was a copy-pasted reply. They have yet to reply to it, and the ticket went untouched for a month.

Someone asked me how was i being singled out by an automated system a few weeks ago. This is fucking how.

It doesn't matter what anyone says to you to instigate you or how they acted. All that matters is what you said and how you acted. If you copy and paste it without the context and it's ban worthy, then you get banned. It's not unfair, it's called a standard.

They saw my case, manually intervened with my case to give esculate my first offence to my last warning before permaban, banned me for 2 weeks, and gave me 14 game chat restriction while not doing a single thing to the other players in the game who were doing the same thing as me. How is that not the literal definition of being singled out?

How do you know the other players did not get a chat restriction?

When someone gets punished by your report you get this:

The thing is, the actions of others are never justification for your own actions. What you have - or have not - done is entirely your responsibility. Which means, to put it simply, that even if other players are being complete jackasses, that does not give you license to also be a jackass.
