Honest mistake

Your Warcraft III username: T_aSTeR378
Realm/Gateway: US East
Why are you banned: Afk, new player leaver
Why you should be unbanned:
Joined a game but was cooking dinner as well and had to take care of something. Was only gone for a few minutes but apparently game started pretty fast and I was already kicked for afk, should've quit the game before it started if I knew how long it would take. 100% my fault, and I would wait out the ban but I only have a few days left to play since winter break is ending and I'm going back to college, the ban is 2 days long due to me just making a new account. Won't happen again, my stay % is pretty high as well.

So here's what we're looking at. Your ban is technically an autoban for leaving, but as you mentioned, you had been AFK since the lobby (~5 minutes).

I don't feel completely comfortable removing this autoban in its entirety when the 5 minutes was afked into that game. My solution is going to be the following:

1. You may wait out this ban as an autoban.
2. I swap this autoban for a warning (0 second ban) for AFK so that if this happens again, the moderator which processes a BRQ for afk will apply a lengthier ban for AFK than a first time offence would be. (No consequence to you if you truly won't AFK into a game again)

Reply back to me here.

Since I never afk on purpose, and I'm fairly sure this is my first time, I will definitely choose the second option and it won't happen again. Thanks for giving me the choice, appreciate it @Karils
