Login at HomeTown

I just wanted to report the fact the some of the Guardians are abusing their power on the HometownMC server by muting anybody the defies them. Especially in the case of the Greenview settlement where they were silenced because of their town meetings. Greenview's town makes up for most active players in game and is one of the fastest growing/expanding settlements. Therefore; they do have quite a bit of information to talk about/discuss. Once they were forcibly silenced by staff under threat they moved to a Discord server to discuss their upcoming election and the laws they were voting on making. There was an altercation where Greenview did refuse to have their public meetings in a private discord server. Nonetheless; due to the fact that most of if not all of Greenviews members are active. So based on that we can conclude that there will be alot of talking from the Greenview settlement. Therefore; being silenced because of the fact that we bring in alot of new members and we do speak in chat alot is completely unreasonable. The rule the staff cited in their forcible mute of Greenviews town discussion was rule 1. This rule states that you must treat all people with respect on the server, and you cannot be intentionally annoying, this includes racism, sexism, and backtalk. Now some members of Greenview did question the fact that the silence was unfair in their eyes and some of the other players from different communities. Also along with the first rule that was cited they stated that being "annoying" was the reason the Greenview community was not allowed to hold public meetings. The Greenview members did discuss the fact that they may have been a nuisance to some community members. Although the only people who seemed to be making complaints about the Greenview community were Guardians and a V.I.P 3. None of the regular/casual players who played on the server for fun made any complaints. Most of the servers players made no comment whatsoever. But now i have personally had people complain about how the situation is unfolding. Some people have even stated the fact that the current staff handling the situation are being unfair in their "discipline" of the situation. Along with that as an overall server issue watching staff unfairly treat normal players with a direct use of force, because those normal players want to play the game their way will certainly drive other players who are new to the server away. What is going to happen when a new player comes into the server with the idea of starting up a government. Will they be silenced as well. What happens when the leaders of these government run communities decide to leave because of unfair treatment. As you can clearly see by the facts i have stated lower-tier staff abuse on the server is running unchecked and needs to be dealt with before more problems arise. Either the staff training needs to be more elaborate on the rules. Or the rules need to be revised removing any generalizations in the rules section so an abusive staff member cannot "interpret" the rules their way. This is clear unfair treatment of players on the server, and other players as well as I will not stand for this misuse of staff power to enact clear dominance on "lesser" players who dont have as much power.

Is anyone else highly annoyed with Derp's discrimination against Greenview?  I'm so sick and tired of her telling everyone to keep Greenview chat out of public chat.  All the other towns are allowed to chat in public chat but not Greenveiw.  If someone is looking for a place to live and you mention Greenview expect to get told by Derp to get GreenView out of chat.  90% of the active users are usually residents of Greenveiw and some of the most active players on the server.  I had someone ask for a paying job and I mentioned that I had shops in Greenview that he could sell items to.  Derp told me to get Greenview out of chat.  This is not fair and is discrimination!  All towns and all people should be treated equally!!!

Minecraft name: blueflame9

Reason for your ban: beacon theft

Who banned you: Guy

Why should you be unbanned: I wasn't thinking when I did what I did, and I felt bad after I did it, my greed got the best of me.

Why do you want to come back: When I joined the server I was thinking that everybody would just mind their own business and it would be solo, but only 5 minutes in I saw how friendly and helpful the community is. I couldn't tell the players and staff apart because they were all acting the same way. I just really loved the server and hope that I can come back to it.

Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord): I believe it was the survival server i was banned on, as i haven't touched the server in over a year

Minecraft name: My current Minecraft name is_0asis_ it was something else when i first was banned.

Reason for your ban: CropTheft. I wasn't aware this was owned by someone. I asked where i could get crops and someone said something like /warp Farm so i went and farmed a bunch of crops.

Who banned you: Rayvenz

Why should you be unbanned:[b] I wasn't aware this was owned by someone. I asked where i could get crops and someone said something like /warp Farm so i went and farmed a bunch of crops. But I am much older and much more mature now.[/b]
Why do you want to come back:  It's hard to find a good mc server now but I remember this being a spectacular server that had great Mods and great People. I look for much in a minecraft server and this server has always matched my needs.

Thank you, _0asis_

Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord): smp.hometownmc.com

Minecraft name: Wrxer24

Reason for your ban: Grief/theft

Who banned you: derpendos

Why should you be unbanned: I broke into an underground water fortress, that seemed abandoned, and stole the beacon. I thought that since it was unclaimed, it would not be a problem... i see that this is wrong. Most sincere apologies for wasting your time, i will not commit this crime again. I always lend a helping hand to the community, and for that i feel like i am a good asset, and comrade, on the server.

Why do you want to come back: I would like to continue my hardcore (ish) survival experience with my friends! And definitely NOT grief anyone!!!

I should be unbanned because I believe that I have learnt my lesson about hacking and that I will never do it again. I should be unbanned because I will never break another rule on HomeTown again. I should be unbanned because I have realised that hacking is a horrible thing to do as it takes the fun out of the game for you and sometimes other players and that was not my intentions. 

I would like to come back as HomeTown has a very good economy as well an amazing player base and officials. I would like to come back to HomeTown because the rules are very fair and good as well there is no lag.

Thanks For Hopefully Considering This Appeal
