I am appealing the "Bug Abuse" punishment given to my account, ID 230658. The animation interruption was absolutely not a deliberate act of exploitation on my part. The sole reason my animation stopped is that I was shot at and took damage from another player at that exact moment. Game mechanics dictate that the ongoing animation automatically stops when damage is taken. Therefore, it was the act of being hit itself that stopped the animation, not me. This is an external interruption, not an exploit. I request that you re-examine the evidence, see that my punishment is unjustified, and lift the ban. Thank you.
