People will want a little more than "I promise I done nothing wrong".
OP's behavior tells me there was a bit more than what was described. What was described is almost enough that they weren't totally in the clear when it comes to getting a warning.

Even telling people 'hey sorry, internet problems' can go a long way. People can't read your mind, for all they know they had a tank bail on them during their EW experience and the GM probably had to deal with something similar lately. A lot of factors can add up, but attitude and just being honest about what's going on can dispel a lot of situations, and prevent getting reported.
