Why should we remove warn/ban? When I made my name to be "Coach" I was basing it off of the character Coach from Left 4 Dead 2, not the community-banned Coach. I've taken a break from CvR for a few months(maybe only appearing here and there every so often) after CKing my HVY character and got back pretty recently after the recent major update so my knowledge about CvR related things isn't very good anymore, especially things about community banned players. While I do get why I was banned for impersonation, it was never my intention to have it related to community-banned Coach. Even in my time as HVY Major I honestly haven't even heard much about Coach and his story, all I knew was that he did something bad. I wasn't also warned about this either from staff or anyone online while I was playing on the server until it was too late and I left the server already and was banned later on without my knowledge. I guess you could just say that I should have just been more clear about my name and it's origins instead of having it just be "Coach" but like I said, I forgot about who this Coach guy was why he was such a big deal. Also, if your wondering why I have my name set to Coach instead of my IC name aka HVY Hono Disguise is because I only got on to mess around with the recently added grenades for the class and never intended to do anything IC.
Coach was a guy who got CO locked a long while ago with Adrian, I don't blame you for not knowing who he is.
+1, It's an unfair ban, not only did he not know who Coach was (he's everything but completely forgotten by now), he was basing the name off of something completely unrelated to him

+1 exactly, no one should get banned just for having a fictional characters name, just because there is a guy community banned, that most of us haven't even heard of.
Accepted. My apologies for the misunderstanding, as Ooga said we were initially surprised to see someone that was supposedly CB'd on the server before realizing that it was apparently a joke, and later, not even related to the original coach. You've been unbanned.
As for the rest of you commenting on the appeal, please once again remember that if you do not have evidence or additional testimony to provide, or if you were not directly involved in the original ban, that you should not be leaving comments on ban appeals. Saying "+1 this is BS because..." or "-1 fuck this guy because..." helps absolutely nobody and will result in your response being ignored when the appeal is reviewed.

Evidence/Other: Not sure about this one chief.
There was literally a SU named blackjack. I don't see why this is an issue unless someone is intentionally trying to disguise as another person.
Hell we even had Ranger CmD Zigzag
+1, unfair ban.
