Hey, I'm a fairly new player to the server and it doesn't make me feel all that great that my first introduction to the forum has to be in this topic.

However, what I am posting about is, of course, my apparent ban.

I was playing on the highschool level and generally just following the crowd. Went into what is known as "The red room" and people started cading it right away. Me being new to the server, I did not realize that this was actually illegal at the time. After a round of it, someone on the zombie team made a vague comment alluding to the fact that the red room was not allowed to be caded. Him not being indicated as an admin in his name, I more or less wrote it off as a frustrated player.

Another round went by, people heading back to the red room and it being variously caded and uncaded, I more or less sat back and just shot at the door to try to keep zombies out. However no more than a moment later, I had a box with text on my screen telling me I had been banned. After which is obvious, I spent some time trying to find this forum to take a closer look at the rules and to report my problem.

I enjoy playing on your server and, while ignorance is not an excuse, it really is my only defense and I hope that after reading this you realize, that me having taken the time and effort to find this forum and type this here that shows that I did not intend to maliciously break the rules but broke one more out of misunderstanding/ignorance more than anything. In essence, its a big oops on my part and I hope that can be seen.

Alright, I just more or less wasn't completely sure why I had been banned and wanted some clarification. I apologize, I couldn't hear you if you were speaking, everyone was constantly shooting and if it was text I simply didn't see it. But thank you for the clarification and I now know that it is not allowed as per the cading rules.
