[size=medium]Does age really matter in a situation like this?
You being older just means you have more knowledge in your head,
but that doesn't mean you have any better common sense than anyone else.
I've banned a 30'ish year old a month ago or so,
And he was probably the most dumb f♪ck on this server.
(Common Sense Wise)
Age is never a matter on Convicted, and people like you
that think age dictates one's characteristics are pretty foolish.
And that quote I highlighted in red tells me that you'd be one of those
"soft" staff members, which I don't desire.
Get this through your head, Alphas were made to work, not hold your hand.
If you weren't the one who was watching the prisoner / Free, I recommend you stay out of this.[/size]
Actually, the first time this person (who will remain anonymous) posted a crappy review of the server without fully comprehending the rules themselves, I checked out their profile. Under the "topic" section, I found something interesting: this person turned out to be a 35 year old female The lesson of this story is that age doesn't matter; it's how you judge a situation and how you react to it. As I said earlier, I'm not exactly be oldest person here, but I'm not the youngest either. Part of the reason that I haven't really told anyone my age here is due to the fact that, unfortunately, people will (most likely) discriminate against me unless they are younger than I am. Don't get me wrong, I'm not 11-, but Viper did get an approximate age group that I fall under, just based off of a few factors that anybody can know. While I may not be as old as everyone here, I am a teenager and if you are older than me/anyone else on the server, you shouldn't think yourself better as anyone else here. (Such as this person in this situation did.)
I underlined the bottom of your post simply because this is extremely true: this matter is between Zombie and TheC. You may feel free to say that you liked this person and that you think they wouldn't do what they were accused of, then that's fine and dandy. Before you take me as a hypocrite, I strongly believed that Carrotts was wrongly banned in the first place. I gathered what support I could to show the Convicted that there was no reason to, but if you begin going after another Alpha like that, (to you and TheCentella,) the person in question will probably not be unbanned. Your tone should be respectful, you should take what they say into consideration, but you should also find any way to disprove their suspicions in any way you can, while not being rude about it. This is what I did, I showed everyone reasons that she should be unbanned, looked at it from a logical standpoint, and guess what happened? I would suggest that you guys find more support for why TheC should be unbanned, and not, "I didn't X-ray."
PT, I don't know if you noticed by his response, but he is obviously past college level writing and therfore amongst the older players on minecraft. Following his reply to you, he posted several VERY TRUE reasons why this server could be better, and you immediatly turn to reject that and say that he is attacking the server and it's players? This guy was one of the coolest guys I have ever played with on the server, and judging by the fact that he didn't insult anyone and was quite professional in his response?... I'd say that I would rather have him as an alpha than you.
And whatever. So many guards are so quick to ban people that have put a good amount of time into convicted, for dumbass reasons like i think he was x-raying. I mean really? Wtf, if the guy is cool and smart, and probably older than you, all you need to do is warn him even if he is breaking the rules. Which is more important? Having cool, active users that may break a rule or two? Or making sure that the server has absoloutly no hackers or modders through banning by guesses? If I ran a server, I would rather have the former.
Give this guy a chamce. He is cool, and was close to being free. I really like him a lot and I think he will be an active and cool user.
I personally approve of him being un banned.
(410) 428-9398
EXACTLY!
I disagree with 99% of this. You are giving stupid reasons for why he should be unnamed. It doesn't matter if he's older, he still had a rightful ban. Pt doesn't have to give a warning, it's insta ban. The more I read this, the more I realized you have never read the rules before. Its nothing against your or constella. Just read the rules a few more times
Sounds like a cool server Btw ignore my sig I play on killion extensively and plan on joining convicted. I hear its a great server hope to see what's in store for me Btw are you accepting transactions?
If you mean transfers, I'm afraid not, sorry.
However, I think that most of the fun comes from comes from ranking up through the prison and working, not just having to go through Elite Block (if you were Free there.)
I wasn't made, I was born. I am not a number, I am a free man. I am not here to appease you, I am here to regulate you. I am not your babysitter, I am your moderator.
) IGN:duderobot123
2) Your age:13
3) How long have you been playing the server? (Minimum of 3 days)I've been playing for over 6 or 7 months.
4) Have you read the Server, Prison, and Guard Rules?Yes i have NOAKII!
5) Any experience with the prison genre?Ive been playing on convicted for a while and i play on ddts when convicted is down and im a 0 Rank/Block there, So yes i am familiar.
6) What is your time zone?Eastern Standard Time
7) Why are you the best choice for guard?I think i am best choice for guard because I'm a loyal member of convicted also a donor, and i love PvP but i also like helping people. Even though i am rude at most times, i can be nice to C blockers and help them out and help them become a loyal member of convicted also. I am good at PvP, not really hated, and i can try to ignore insults. This is my second time being a guard and quit the day i got it, but now convicted is a bit boring and i wanna try again. I also i wanna become a guard because i want to become responsible and trust worthy, I think becoming a guard is the best choice to learn responsibility. Another reason i am a best choice for guard is because i know all the rules for a guard, as i hate seeing trainees that dont know what they are doing. Im not gonna be one of those trainees, I will try to be the best Trainee and or Guard convicted has had Even if i cant i will try my hardest to be. I understand convicted has tons of guards and it makes it very hard for wardens to choose which people to become trainees. I have been recommended by 2 Alphas (Qwerty and builder) and they think i would be a great guard. Thank you for looking at my app. Im not very good at writing essays and worksheets or anything in school sorry if there are any mess ups. I also would be guarding alot cause i play on convicted alot C:
8) What is your current rank? [Free] Do you understand that we will require PROOF of your rank when/if you retire from guard? Ill post a Screenshot of my rank when im demoted.
Alright guys... Jesus, didn't even give me a chance to say "good points." God damn...
Other than that, thanks for the run guys, it was fun being guard. By no means am I done with the server, and this isn't a setback at all.
And for all the crappy attitudes towards me... Sorry? I didn't really do anything wrong, and I have never said anything to insult any of you sooooo, please don't be harsh... It isn't necessary.
Also, If the plan is to have only guards that will be harsh and dictating, then trainee should not exist at all. There should not be apps for guards, and it should be a process of finding people that will do a good job. For instance, I don't like being harsh or mean, so I might not make a good guard. I am good at pvp, and I like doing it, but if harsh is an important attribute, then you got me. If that was stated 3 weeks ago, I probably would have asked to retire.
Also, PLEASE stop hating me so much cookie, duder, and benj. I literally don't do anything bad. I put X D in half of my posts, and I have never said or done anything to any of you that should be offensive. The ONLY person that has any reason to be mad at me now that I am no longer guard is PT. To whom I say sorry. However, you hated me from the start for some reason, even though I listened to everything you said...
anyway, whatever. Still gonna play. See you guys on the server.
Aww, True it does make sense. And I truly give the owner credit for coming up with D block, where prisoners to for doing really bad stuff I will be playing killion and convicted side by side
well welcome to convicted We did come up with the player market and stuff but Killion is not a ripoff. They are different in many ways. But it still is annoying when people say we copied them. Also if you see people on convicted hating on us a ton and saying they are from killion do not go back to killion and do the same. Those people are banned from killion 99% of the time. Killion sometimes gets our bans who do the same thing and even though sometimes our relationship is kinda bumpy with killion we get along pretty well these days.
Alright guys... Jesus, didn't even give me a chance to say "good points." God damn...
Other than that, thanks for the run guys, it was fun being guard. By no means am I done with the server, and this isn't a setback at all.

Please don't take what I say as hate, and I'm sorry if I cause you any offense by what I say.
Question 4 in Guard Applications: Have you read the Server, Prison, and Guard Rules?
Based off of what you posted, it seems clear to us that you did not read the Server Rules. You say that we should warn people for an instant-ban offense, just because they seem to be older than a lot of people. This is basically discriminating by age; if you ask me, it really ought to be the other way around...you should have more common sense by age, however, there are exceptions to this sometimes.
Based off of what Zombie said, you liked to challenge him on the rules quite often. Alphas are where they are for a reason, they have experience and an in-depth understanding of the rules. While we may not have everything robotically memorized, and we may be unclear on a certain rule, we know what is right and what is wrong. It is generally not the best idea to challenge a more experienced Guard every time they tell you the way a rule works, especially an Alpha.
Also, what Noakii meant by what he said is that we need people who will enforce the rules with a strict hand. What you intended to do is make an exception for him, because he seemed to be older than you and many players on this server. You can be a fun-spirited person at heart, but no matter how much it may hurt, you must enforce the rules to everyone, and not make an exception for only them based off of a few details about them. I suppose a good example of this would be if a Free bribed you with 100k BP to let them out of jail early. Would a fair, unbiased Guard go for it? Of course not. This is kind of the same scenario, you wanted him to be an exception although the rules clearly state that the crime that Centalla committed was an instant-ban.
however, I didn't un-ban anyone, and I couldn't. I just merely suggested that it is ridiculous how much people get banned on this server , and frankly, If I ran a server, I wouldn't ban off things like x-ray. I would ban if someone was a ****.
And I did read the rules. Saying something is different from doing something.
I never DID anything. So, while I don't mind that I was demoted, I don't think it was entirely fair.
GUARD APPLICATION
1)IGN:My ign is Gruntwithgun. 2)Your age: Right now i am 11 going onto 12 3)How long have you been playing this server? I have been playing for 14days (atleast 2-5hrs a day).
4)Have you read the Server,Prison and Guard rules:Yes i beileve that THEY ARE VERY IMPORTANT AND A MUST ON EVERY SINGLE SERVER.
5)Any experience with the prison genre: I haven't had any experience but I learn fast exspecially when I'm interested in something
6)What is your time zone?: North American Eastern Time Zone
7)Why are you the best choice for a guard? I Think I'm the best choice as a guard because: I well keep the prison safe from Prisoners causing chaos/havoc,I beileve i would be very responsible and trust worthy to keep all idiots from ruining other peoples game experience on your server. I know the Convitced server has many good Guards and hopefully will be a spot for me.
8)What is your current rank? I am currently rank [ c ] i well take a screen shot and keep it if i ever want to retire.
Edit: Wait wait wait wait whoa whoa stop. When did Pwning retire...?
nah, its an older screen.
guys I wont be around often, if I am its LATE night.
I got grounded off the comp and im usually really bored. so if I got nothing to do I sleep and get up around 1am and use a diff laptop while everyone is sleeping. o3o

X-raying is stated clearly in the rules on Convicted; and you may think that we're harsh and brutal, but we have our set boundaries. And we expect them to be followed.
Also, you aren't exactly the kindest person ever, when SDA made a minor mistake, you retaliated with a rather rude gif, but thats just my opinion. c:
YUP Hai or should I say Bai Guys Well this is SmilingTornado. Convicted is kinda getting old and I really Really Need to move on. I have been playing for like 1.5 years or something. I think people are quitting because it is getting boring for them. I would suggest to create a Sub-Server. Like maybe a friendly faction server. this server has not changed much since I joined the areas are still the same and the whole prison server is still the same. Maybe add a courtyard where the Solitary Confinement is? or Compleatly renovate the entire server. I don't really know what to do on convicted anymore. I don't see most of the original players anymore and I miss them. I need to move on to another server. If I think of another type of server that might be catchy I will tell you guys but for now BAI

I think ya'd make a great guard, and btw if you, a warden, and an alpha that reccomended you is online, tell the alpha.

I just need them to be classy and serious,
not some softies that can't swing the ban hammer.
you cut them in two and squeeze them in your eyes c:
