Well then, time for me to actually get a say in this, sorry that it's a little late, wasn't going to do this so close to Christmas.
From my point of view, I was casually chatting on the server, until an idea regarding a bug that I had to fix elsewhere popped into my head, and I wondered if Alpha had fixed it yet, since he seemed so rushed about it. So I went in search of a place to test it, and found the perfect conditions on TheReasoning's's lot, so I gave it a shot, and it worked, SGT then came along and I showed him. He then blocked off the spawn to TheReasoning's first lot, but I found other ways to gain access, then attempted to tell SGT, but he ignored this fact. I had another idea regarding a different bug and was unable to test it out on the server, so I checked in the source code to see if there was anything preventing this from occurring, and I found nothing. This bug was much more serve than the previous bug, I did however say that I found it (in hindsight maybe I should have not said anything) and decided it would be best to tell Alpha directly because of the severity of the bug. Shortly after TheReasoning came online in a bad mood (something about some kind of exams or sleep?), and asked about the bugs, he already knew about the first one that I told SGT, but I tried to avoid telling him the second bug, because it seemed more likely that it could be leaked, here is my logic behind this:
Tell Alpha -> He either fixes straight away, or puts on a 'Private' ticket in Redmine, ensuring no-one else knows.
Tell Staff -> They will tell alpha and likely put it on a public Redmine ticket, other staff would also see, and they would be inclined to test it out (human curiosity). This could lead to users finding the bug, or non-rainbow moderators using it straight up (similar incident to SkyeHeart). This all seems a pointless amount of risk when I could just tell Alpha straight up. (You might say that yes, Staff should be trusted and etc. but the simple truth is that is what people are like, and its better to not take the risk, Control > Trust)
I think there was also something about me using a flying feather in this story somewhere, but that was me generically having fun, and I told them Alpha is already aware of this. Sure I my tone of voice was a little off, but I Was just trying to have some fun, being pestered by staff who seem to have a grudge against you just isn't fun, and if I logged out I had a feeling I would get banned anyway. So we continue on for a little while and then out of no-where I was banned for 10 days, without a ban thread (from SGT I am told). I try to get a ban thread posted or at least find out why, but I get nothing for at least a day (I can't remember how long exactly), and then out of the blue I get a message from my brother that Egg has sent me said something, as well as a forum PM that says this: (Sorry if it is supposed to be private Egg, you didn't specify)
Sorry about your situation with being banned without a proper ban thread. Because of the actions of my fellow staff members and their lack of following basic banning rules, I have decided to unban you myself. Please feel free to report SGT_ADZ for improperly banning you without stating a reason.

When I view this, I then log into the server, and I think first see Lue, he seems surprised and etc. I log out and log-in later, I think it was TheReasoning who was online, I didn't say a word, and then was instantly Perm Banned. I asked the Reasoning over Skype and got this..

It took a while of arguing over Skype to get him to finally post me a ban thread, and it was locked anyway.. Until Alpha unlocked it and then this occurred. Its been a tedious trip, and a long waste of time to finally get to this point, I would be happy if this was resolved already. This account is as best as I can remember at this moment, I may have missed or jumbled up the order of some details, but you get the generic idea. I realize that you probably wont accept any quotes given, but I threw them there anyway because they help me tell my story.
