ban appeal i guess..
#1
Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord): i was banned on the smp , on the date of 01.07.2023 (first of july)

Minecraft username: .IamNotDamian

Reason for your ban (exactly what it says when you try to log in!): Homophobic comments.
No more second chances.
Enough is enough.
Banned by the entire staff team.
No appeal option.
Find a new server.

Who banned you: The whole entire staff team.

Why should you be unbanned (Why should we give you a second chance?): Before starting , I want to clarify that the “(Why should we give you a second chance?) text is useless because in my case , it’s the 5-6th “second” chance.
I want to state every reason and everything I’ve done towards the reason I’ve ever gotten banned , Discord or Server.
We can start with my first ban.
(or the first thing I remember because I don’t have proper sources about what I’ve done and I can only speak about what I catched from my ban appeals and from what I can remember.
We will firstly start with:0.)
 The discord ban.
The discord ban is the first time I’ve gotten banned , as I observe in my ban appeals.
One day , I was bored, so dumb 11 year old me decided to send an sandwhich photo on food-pics ‘cause I was unable to make a simple sandwhich.
I got banned from discord that day , learning that sending “unauthentical photos” got me banned.
That ban wasn’t one of the biggest impacts to my hometown “career” , so we continue.
1). Petty grief. Violation of rule #1.
My “petty grief” is strictly referring to the incident where I placed alot of blocks at /warp diamond out of boredom.
As explained there , I’ve got 6 WHOLE Formal warnings before this about similar incidents, meaning I maybe already did it.
Apologies to esptree for this one
2). I’m not sure if this specific one got me banned but I’m still gonna explain it since it’s part of my “criminal record”.
•- I remember that I once tried to appeal for an ban by using an ChatGPT/AI type app.
It was used out of tiredness but deep down I know it was used out of laziness, which is exactly why the phrase “no pain no gain” exists.
As I know , I broke rules such as harrasing people/moderators to unban me as fast as possible/review my “ban appeal” which was the AI one.
I’ve been banned for uslessly spamming chat with messages such as “stop spamming “ etc.
I can strictly say the messages i’ve said were in the domain “admin wannabe” which is what i’ve “tried” to be at that time.
It only made things worse and I didn’t help at all.
To say everything in a sum , this was an explanation for both discord and server ban.
3.) The last reason I got banned in terms of what I know.
The esptree incident is what I like to call it.
One day esptree told us that he will go to the LGBTQ+ parade in Oslo.
My old dumb self intentionally insisted that my country doesn’t respect his/her/they gender. I can also aprrove that I said that there are only 2 genders and that he should pick the right one.
This was the worst and dumbest move i ever decided to do , this leaning towards my big permanent ban.
I got banned from /nick , an vip
command which allowed you to nickname yourself however you wanted.
I got banned for approximately 30 days , main reason being the unintentional reason of trying to nickname an pickaxe/item and nicknaming myself instead.
I sincerely explain that I’ve broken countless of rules, and as I know , I’ve been the most misbehaved
and WORST person ever on that server.
Getting to the end of this question , all I can say is that there isn’t a reason to unban me whatsoever.
Even though it’s one of my biggest wish , the choice is in your hands so do what you must.
This is all I can express on the domain “why?”


Why do you want to come back: Firstly.
I want to apologize to everyone I’ve ever caused harm or to everyone I’ve ever spoke in an unpleasant manner.
Main reason of my coming back is the following:
Even though i’ve been away for 2 years and some months , I’ve slowly tried to keep touch with this server and people among it.
The community is still the same , even evolving in number with alot of great people
joining a great community.
I don’t really have any reasons in how I can express myself on this one , except the reason of wanting to come back.
It’s the same story everytime
“nostalgia, great server… etc.”
Thank you guys for taking your time to read my post!
Have a great day , Damian.

I'd like to add to your ''career'' rap sheet, since being banned, quite recently actually, you have continued to harass players, including but not limited to:

- voting for someone with the express purpose of messing up their voting schedule because "idk bored"
 
#3
a reply directly to your message won’t work so i’m going to continue here.
i forgot about that incident but i sincerely appreciate it , and I thank you for telling me.
Yes. The voting incident for an player reason being “idk bored” wasnt truly an good answer
The real reason was truly just an joke, I wanted to do an good deed which didn’t end up well , and I should’ve not did that because i didn’t know I destroyed his voting schedule.
I already expressed my true thoughts to him and I apologised.
If there is anything more I need to add or to explain, I’m willing to do anything
 
#4
How can it be both a joke and a good deed?
 
#5
the “good deed” meant trying to vote for him without him doing the effort
and the joke is really just inside jokes between us , we do jokes to eachother everyday.
if how i said it took a wrong turn and had a wrong meaning i’m sincerely sorry!
i can clearly say that it wasnt a joke worthy action though.
 
#6
I see.

Well, I'm not sure why you spent the entire ''Why you should be unbanned" section just listing out all the things you've ever gotten in trouble for, only to end it with "I shouldn't be unbanned."? Not very convincing that we should give you a second chance. Normally in this section, players try to show that they've realized that what they did was wrong and how they have grown and learned from their mistakes, and that's why we should give them a second chance. I guess you haven't changed and are just expecting us to let you back anyways?

Your "Why you want to come back" section is a very short apology when considering the length of the list of grievances you've just presented, and then as you've stated, ''the same story every time" about just wanting to come back. So again, bringing nothing new to the table, and expecting us to just nod and say ''oh, ok, welcome back.''?

After reviewing and discussing as a team, we have decided to deny your appeal.

In the future (several years down the road) if you should ever feel inclined to appeal again, please consider writing something new and worth our time to read, not "the same story" again. We're not going to just let you back for writing a lot of words that don't tell anything new, with a weak one-line apology and zero signs of growth or maturing or having learned from the experience.

Thank you for taking your time to answer my appeal.
The “why do you want come back” section was very short , and I’m fully aware of it.
I did not state everything there should be to state because I thought to myself that the same topic would annoy you guys , thinking that it’s the same story, again and again.
If I really wanna expose my true reasons, I’m going to enlist the following.
Even though I’ve been banned for 2 years and 3 months, and I wasn’t aware about information from the community whatsoever,  I’m fully aware that it’s the same, cool server.
I’ve been active on it for around 6 months, and I can say that it’s done a huge impact on myself, 6 months of gameplay feels like 2 years of memories.
My friend and I discuss about this server pretty often, in fact, we talk about everything I was “going to do once I get unbanned, which was an pretty nice thing to talk about, projects and projects in my mind.
I remember every ounce of lesson this server has brought upon me.
From learning that patience is key, which I still have to do some working on, to making my arguments so much better, also, this improved my acknowledgment of the English language.
I’ve had time to reflect and I truly know how important it is to respect rules, knowing that I wasn’t the best at doing that.
If I have to express my feelings on why should you guys give me an second chance, I can tell you guys the following:
Offering me an second chance would mean lots to me. An second opportunity would mean an second chance at playing among this community. An second opportunity would mean how much I’ve matured over the course of the past 2 years. I’ve joined this server from an raw age, I’ve been stubborn since the day I was born, I’ve entirely progressed and grown since then, and I can officially confirm that I’ve matured a lot even though it’s not very exposed. You guys unbanning me / giving me a chance to retry again would also lead to you guys being the onlookers of an kid’s road to maturity. All my allegations were right and I take all credit for what I’ve done, regardless if it was good or bad.
This ban brought me an opportunity to learn how patience works, and I can say that I’m so much better at it. If I include all my reasons, I can add that nostalgia is a huge factor to my constant desire to rejoin this server, and to catch up on news about the community’s progress/past.
In conclusion, I really want to come back because this community really means alot to me.
It’s more than just a server, it’s an place where I’ve made friends, learned new things, and had lots of fun regardless of the reason or the day. Over the course of my absence, I realized how much I value this server to the point I want to come back to a place where I’m not as welcome as I used to be.
If I will ever be allowed to return, I will genuinely treat it as an “second chance” of redemption of my actions, not something to waste on making the same mistakes as the last time.
Thank you again for giving me the opportunity to appeal. Regardless the outcome, I appreciate your time and consideration.
Have a great day!! Blush
“I want to come back because this community means a lot to me. It’s more than just a game/server — it’s a place where I’ve made friends, learned, and had fun. Being away made me realize how much I value it. If I’m allowed back, I’ll treat it as a second chance, not something to waste, and I’ll focus on contributing positively instead of causing problems.”
