I can attest to the fact that the player in question was rather toxic and seemed to openly question staffs integrity and the rules they enforce to protect us all. If you would like I can post my log of the incident so you can be assured that staff were 100% correct in banning this player.

Personally I don't believe that staff need to explain every detail of why the rules are that way to a player who was clearly joining to, as he so eloquently put it, 'piss you off'. Why would staff waste their time explaining things to such a player when he openly admitted to trying to find loopholes to the rules.

If you are concerned with how many players are being banned you just have a look at the reasons why in their appeals. Xrayers, being disrespectful, greif, theft. They are all things we could do without on HomeTown, no? Simply put, the number of bans increase as the number of new players are attracted to the server.

Okay, now that I'm finally home for a bit and can answer with a little depth...

Your first, second, and third paragraphs aren't relevant to my point. I said that cropped images are bothersome in general, I did not say that the player in question is innocent or is justified in his actions. I don't care about him at all.

The last paragraph, I saw that a lot of the reports had to do with x-ray but I also saw a lot were for grief/stealing. Do staff members not ask the player who griefed to fix what was done, or for players to return what they stole? I get that they broke the rules, but with how many there are I'm wondering if the players were questioned at all or if they were banned right away.

For your "simply put" part... Just look at the appeals page and the dates. An entire page of appeals in the last week of the server. That isn't a case of bans increasing over time, but a lot of bans occurring recently very often which is why I'm baffled.
