Server you were banned on: Currently, I am banned on the SMP Server.

Minecraft name: StupidlyThicc

Reason for your ban: X-Ray Texture Pack

Who banned you: Melaniebeedot

Why should you be unbanned: Honestly, I most likely should not. I figured though, that I'd take one stab at it, because I quite like this server. I started off as a broke boy. Standard tools, the like, and wanted to make my way up. I soon realized, after an arduous 2 hours of strip mining with NO SUCCESS, that diamonds are extremely rare. I figured that the only way to do this would to be to cheat. I don't know why, but I decided to follow my impulses. I normally do not make impulse decisions, but this was one of those times where I just went with it and didn't look back. I do feel quite guilty about it, because I was planning to make a lot of fun builds, and now I won't get the chance to. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to pity-party you or anything like that, I'm just saying that what I did was completely idiotic, and I realize that my actions not only chain from just me, but also affect and impact the playing experience of those around me and overall on the server. (Second disclaimer, I also used the xray to find gold and redstone so I could get powered rails for the train station I was going to build.)

Why do you want to come back: As recently stated, I had a lot of fun builds planned. and I really would like to share them with the community. This might seem a bit biased, but as a first-time offender, I feel like the punishment should be a bit more lenient comparably to others that have been caught multiple times, but I digress. I also would like to come back and keep making friends on this server, because frankly I'm appalled by how nice everyone is on this server. Most people are 110% A-Grade Douchecanoes on Survival Servers, but this is the first one that I've found that's actually decent in terms of playerbase. It's also quite a simple, but enchanting experience to play. I quite enjoy it, and therefore would appreciate an unban. 

However I have presented my case, it is ultimately at your discretion, but I do hope that you can understand my remorse and apology in this appeal, and I hope that you consider all writings before making your final verdict. Thank you.

Best Regards,

Well. At least you're being honest with us about it.

Unfortunately, here at HomeTown, we have a zero-tolerance policy on x-ray. It is explicitly stated in the tutorial when you join, in the quiz you take after the tutorial before you're allowed into the world, in the /rules, and at the /warp rules. In fact, the /rules state that x-ray is automatically a permanent ban.

So we're not exactly inclined to be ''a bit more lenient'' with first-time offenders... and others that have been caught a second time don't even get the chance to appeal again.

However, since you were honest with me, I am inclined to lessen your perma-ban to a 30-day temp ban instead. I will also be confiscating all products of your mining, and I will be wiping your balance.

In the mean time, you might want to check out our full rulebook to ensure that you don't break any more rules upon your return.
