When they banned me, they neglected to change the new password it sent me, so I submitted the following request. Not surprisingly, they have since changed my password and I assume the request will never be acknowledged. Still, I'll share it here ...
Greetings,
Although I doubt it will make any difference with regard to your having mercy enough to welcome me back, I wanted to posthumously defend my abilities as a player by providing you with just some of the kudos I have on record from over the years. This is excluding positive staff notes, which I can also provide if curious. As you know, I am a meticulous record keeper and never trash anything.
I have also included the last karma log I received, as well as some notes on staff which are relevant to your concerns about my ability to adapt and change. The point? Perhaps to show you that you may have judged either too quickly, too harshly, or both. My six month punishment was practically up, and I said I was going to do whatever it took. There was no need for half of my life invested to end like it did.

SOME PAST KUDOS
Tarluk: "I've had so much fun playing with this character Tarluk, the muscular, golden-skinned mul. What tangible personality. It's awesome."
Silent Speaker: Silent Speaker of the Akei'ta Var is a pretty cool pc. The ATV used to be my favorite d.elf tribe hands down, but in recent years I've moved on to try other tribes. I can say without question though that he reminds me of why I liked them so much. A pretty complete character, and I hope to continue playing with him.
Shevera: For the player of Shevera, the heavily-tattooed dwarven woman: Mostly, I'd like to apologize to you for neglecting to ooc to ask your consent for a slightly graphic scene the other day in the Tuluki jail. I realized my error after the deed was done, and I feel really bad about it. Sorry! Secondly, I admired your handling of your character during an intense situation. She seemed to hang on to her focus until the bitter end, as a dwarf should, and I'm a little bummed that the other players privy to the scene weren't able to pick up on all the nuances. She reacted in an utterly believable manner, and you, as a player, kept in character the entire time... something that doesn't always happen. Great job, and again, my apologies about the ooc consent matter.
Drana: Kudos, for keeping your head about you and maintaining the atmosphere even when your character was threatened. Excellent emotes.
Omoro: I'd like to extend my thanks to you for the scene tonight. Needless to say, it was a heart pounding experience for my character throughout the events that transpired. I found your character to be convincing and real, not a walking skillset of a mage. I'd also like to extend my apologies for the context I failed to add. While speaking with you, my words were meant to be in Sirihish to, as I said, provide context as to -why- said event was happening. I apologize that I was only speaking in my character's native tongue, and promise to be more mindful of what I'm doing in the game in future exchanges/scenes. Again, thank you for playing a believable mage.
Samira (or possibly a gladiator): From a Co-player for the Event to all the Gladiators, Samira Fale and the AoD members. During the last week I had the joy of playing with each of the above in various capacities. Some I created deep relationships with, others I met only on the day and others still only interacted with Kosh on the rarest occasions. All however, made this last week amazing and the conclusion of Kosh's story all the more amazing. I'd like to say thanks to them, all of them, for everything and giving me an end that was truly depressing - in a good way. Every moment of interaction was golden and had me really inside my character, pushing myself to the limit to match the quality that surrounded me. Thank you and I hope once the time has past, I get to hear your sides of the story, for if these are but strands, the tapestry as a whole must've been glorious! Game on!
For RP with Red Viper: I really enjoy interacting with your character, even though we've only interacted twice. But you have an ability to inspire me to be more IC, and to really wonder how my own character should respond to yours. It would be really awesome if they meet again sometime in the future. Kudos to you!
Templar Elorek Sath: Sorry so late on this, but i really enjoyed being in your unit during the HPRT. You got everyone around you involved and assigned a task or two--even those of us with brand new PCs. Also, the few times I've interacted with you since, your RP and Templar-ness has been top knotched. After over a year away from Allanak, you've really added to my first experience back. Kudos, and keep up the good work!!!
Ranath: "I've never roleplayed with anyone in the Akei'ta Var and I have to say it was very interesting. Even if my PC is a "roundear" she has similar views but obviously doesn't know much about these people so it was very fun to get a taste of their culture. I found the character of Bleeding Stone to show just the right emotions and enjoyed that he still allowed for interaction even if things started on the wrong foot. It makes me consider playing one in these near future. Take care and keep enjoying the game."
Arc: Have to say, when my character found yours in the midst of solo RP and the way you played him.. It was my first encounter with a one like you (rogue gicker) and it was great. Well RP'd. Very much so. Good job on the whole make-up and atmosphere your emotes lent. Hope he's still alive and keep it up, please. Need more players like you to run into.
Lorgana/Anagrol: Spooky, not-quite-sane, entertaining, humorous, creepy as all hell, but oddly endearing. A great all-around character, hope to see more of this player's stuff!
KARMA LOG AS OF SEPT 14 2011
Set karma to 1, a lot of skill as a roleplayer, should be more than able to handle desert elf. - 2/28/07.
Set karma to 2, Consistent roleplay, and polite in conversations. I see no reason not to grant the karma. - 7/30/07.
Set karma to 1, For the mundanes frenzy, ok to give back if requested - 9/27/07.
Set karma to 3 - 9/07/08.
Set karma to 4, Did a good job with his Templar Elorek, good communication, I don't expect any twinkery - 1/08/10.
Set karma to 5, Wanted to store to go on to play a pre-app character, but changed their mind to finish out some RP with others. Very appreciated. - 6/20/10.
Set karma to 6, He's been playing a long time, and with consistently good role-play, even while alone. He's a joy to watch, and even though he's not great with longevity or sponsored roles, I truly believe he can handle it. - 10/11/10.
STAFF COMMENTS DURING EFFORTS TO IMPROVE
Since the death of Drana this player has been doing a wonderful job of just playing, not wishing, not asking for staff animations. MUCH improved. - 2/19/09
Elorek was a satisfying character to watch for me. He was rational in his actions, and well-rounded. Nice to see a templar not a death-generator for everyone who comes in contact with him. - 1/02/10
Good job with play on Ashae, the sorceress. Would recommend for further roles of the same guild if another special app was put in. - 8/07/11
