i know that i have been banned for a month, but i think you're over reacting. it was just some cows, if scip cant take a joke i guess this is the price i have to pay. i've seen people do much worse things than i did and didnt get this bad of punishment.
I like how you posted this right below tschagg's and Skie's posts saying that this is how things are going to work now. He asked you to stop + you not stopping = you got banned. Its a simple equation. While it may have been fun for you, it could have been (and was) very annoying for him.

well bobby i didnt know about the new no trolling rule becuz i dont get on the fourms every day,and yes he did tell me to stop but he would do the same to me if he got the chance to.

Ghetto, I know scip. You don't. You are now saying that he would troll you, should he get the opportunity? I'm sorry, but this absolute measure of presumptuousness and blame is rather unfathomable. You're banned for good reason; Blaming others does absolutely nothing.

well i'm just saying my part. i'll see you guys in a month. you guys belive what you want and i wont talk to scip again if it turns in to this every time.
Hi I posted a ban appeal a few days ago and I didn't get much of a response apart from Jaz saying "let's see if who banned you has some light to shed on this. If not, I'll give you another chance." and nothing happened since I'm not fussed about being banned I would just like to know why exactly I was banned because all I know is that I apparently stole but the past few times I was on the server I was just tending my underground farm and expanding my home, So you can see why I am confused and I would just like some clarification on the situation. You can find my original ban appeal in the spoiler
In-game Name:
kylerobwil
Who were you banned by?
Unknown
What was the ban reason?
Apparently stealing (That's what it told me when I tried to log in)
Do you admit fault?
I do not remember stealing at all and if I did it would of been accidental.
Why should you be unbanned?
Because I am not that kind of person who would steal.
Any other information: Last time I was on the server was about a month ago and all I did was continue to expand my house and mining.
Thank you for your time and I hope this can be sorted out soon.

This whole exchange is making me agree with skoardy.
Introduction Hi, I'm making this post to make an apology for my actions recently, but I'm going to attempt not to make excuses, forgive me if I do, for I do not feel what I've done is necessarily wrong, as I quote Titus Lucretius Carus "What is food to one, is to others bitter poison", more commonly interpreted as "one man's right is another man's wrong".
"Trolling" and Disruption If you haven't worked it out already I don't feel that my "trolling" was necessarily bad, but it was however unjustifiable even by my account. To quote the front cover of the Ricky Gervais Show "Life's funny unless you're the punch line". I found that my actions were funny to me, but the punch line was regrettably the community of this server, specific people in particular, and my trolling was offense and disrupting to the people on the server. I want to apologise, sincerely from myself. I could go on about my intentions and how I didn't mean to offend people, but the truth of the matter is... I did. The definition of a troll pulled directly from Wikipedia: "A troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous or off-topic messages in an online community such as a forum, chat room or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion". That was my intent, it was carried out and I faced the consequences of those actions. This primarily goes out to Skie or anyone else that was subject to my abuse on the test server, or the main server over the year I have spent on the server.
Griefing
The second topic of discussion is primarily the reason I was banned - griefing. For those of you that were not present at the time I proceeded to randomly change the gifts given in the valentines area in the server, before creating a large phallus in the centre of the area. Humorous to myself and undoubtedly to others around me. Although growing up in an environment that is primarily of the same age group as myself, it can be difficult to understand that there are not only younger people, and older people. Different levels of maturity exist within any community, as well as different forms of humor. Unfortunately, my primary form of humor can usually be considered offensive. I am a cynical and critical person, with an unsubtle form of immaturity. Finally, the griefing. I mixed up chests, and caused disruption on the server. I can say no more. This was done with disruptive intent, which was once again achieved. I also, with the assistance of a friend, destroyed two houses on the test server. I can understand why these people would be angry, as it is their time and effort that has gone into producing a structure in Minecraft, and I would feel just the same if such things had occurred to builds that I had spent time and effort on. I was and still am fully aware of the pointlessness of griefing the server, and am perfectly aware that the ability to "rollback" the damage done exists. Please take this into account while you consider my apology.
Finally, I want to thank anyone who has actually taken the time to read this post, as I understand that it was long and most likely boring. Please understand that this is not a ban appeal, simply an apology. Thank you for your time.
Here's what I don't understand: why are we making such a big deal about trolling now? My policy has always been that harassing other players is not allowed. Doing so is breaking a rule, and is a bannable offense after a warning. Why are we spinning our wheels on this so much right now?
A lot more younger people play Minecraft, it's blown up massively since I started playing, and probably lots of you guys, and flaming and abuse can actually effect them. I don't think the first server I played had anyone under the age of 12 or 13.
that's a very good point, although in response to jaz: it has really been picking up.. and I believe some people think they can abuse this rule because it isn't as enforced as griefing or spamming.

hey jaz. i didnt get a warning from anyone i just got banned on the spot. thats what im kinda mad about.
Why should you be unbanned? I used to play on this server with a few friends a year ago. I posted a Ban Appeal but it went unanswered. A player named MrJoeDennis convinced me to come back. So here I am. Posting this Ban Appeal. i hope I'm unbanned and I can go back.

Once again, as I believe someone stated before, being a donator does not exempt you from the rules.
So I Hear Recent Comments Of People Saying That Getting Banned For "Accidentally Greifing" And That The Admins Are Too "Harsh" But To Me, I Would Be Doing The Same Thing To Keep My Server Growing And Making It A Trustworthy Server. So They Aren't Being Too Harsh, Their Just Doing The Right Thing To Keep Everybody Safe And Having Fun. Don't Make A Big Deal If Your Friend Gets Banned Or You Do. Deal With IT. You/ They Got Banned For A Reason. Even If I Get Banned, I Won't Whine About It Or Even If My Best Friend Gets Banned. That's Mine/ Their Fault To Deal With. Don't Keep Whining About It.
Anyways, Keep Up The Great Server Staff Loving Every Second Of Being On It.
Some of you may have seen this message before but im finalizing it here:
When an incident occurs on the server and a staff member is handling it the best thing you can do as a user is wait until it is resolved before you air your opinions. For two reasons: 1. it is much easier to deal with the situation when the staff dont have to sift through the chat to get to the important stuff and 2. many of your messages, although the intent is good, can catalyze and aggravate the situation leading to a more serious incident which is a more time consuming incident. The staff have enough to do with the people that join these days.
I dont mean to be a jerk im just trying to make the server a better place than it already is.
Feel free to have your say on the matter, i'd love to hear it!

scip i would like to say sorry for spaming those cows on you and that i wish we would just leave this behind us. let by gones be by gones.
Hey guys i just wanted to report something that happened a little while ago on the server. A player name Vadamx took Rainmaka22's stuff and void jumped with it. Rain lost everything. Also when utah killed me, Vadam did the same and while he died from falling and I salvaged some of my stuff, My Bane of Arthropods 5, Sharpness 5, and Fire Aspect 2 diamond sword was stolen. I am extremely angry about a player doing this, and I wanted to say that I hope Vadamx is permanently banned and Rain and I are compensated.
Please help,
