I've been Banned for Grief: The first time and the last. - TheKidLink_X
#1
[b]Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord):[/b] HomeTownMC (SMP)

Minecraft name: TheKidLink_X

Reason for your ban: Grief

Who banned you: melaniebeedot

Why should you be unbanned: It was a complete accident for griefing, I mean I have never done it before. and have never been banned from a server as well.

Why do you want to come back: this server makes minecraft addicting again, the community, yet small, feels more alive and more bigger than any other server. I tried to go on other servers but it just didn't feel the same.

Thank you for your time and for giving me a chance to appeal.

An accident, you say? Could you explain further? Do you recall the griefing incident?

this happened when I first started playing on the server.
I made a portal, went to grab some stuff from the nether and ended up in someone else's house. I freaked out and broke my way out.
but now I know how to avoid the issue

It is interesting that the subject of your appeal is ''The first time and the last'' when in fact this ban is referring to what appears to be a separate griefing incident than the one you just admitted to...

The incident in question occurred at a player's private villager farm, see the following screenshot for reference:

In the next screenshot we can see the logs that I had rolled back of you breaking the crops as well as the end rods in the area:

A separate area here where you also broke through the cobblestone wall to access more crops:

As well as a few pens of animals here that were all slaughtered:

In fact, there was a total of 86 blocks changed and 46 entities (animals) killed, shown here:

So, help me understand how this was an accident, and the first and the last time that you've griefed?

When I was around the area, I tested if the blocks were owned or not. I clicked and found out that they weren't, I can admit that I did steal the crops thinking that I might get banned for this... later on I found the village again and found out that their was a sheep farm. I killed.... all of them. around my area I did not have any sheep... but I knew that I was going to get banned when I seen the messages about someone's house was being griefed.
I know that I had it coming, but I will definitely replace everything that I stole to their rightful owner. because I definitely didn't needed it in the first place.
I apologize for doing this and this will never happen again.

Oh, so you do remember? Wouldn't this all have been much easier if you'd just come clean in the first place instead of giving me the run-around with all this ''the first time and the last'' nonsense?

Answer the following questions in 2-3 complete sentences, then we will consider unbanning you.

1. Is griefing allowed on this server?

2. If an area is not claimed/protected, then is it allowed to be griefed?

3. If you can't find the animals you are looking for around your area, is it ok to go to another player's area and kill their animals? What are some acceptable options instead?

4. When you realized your actions would get you banned, what should you have done in that moment instead of not speaking up about it?

5. If you didn't need it the first place, why did you take it?

6. What have you learned from this experience?

1. Is griefing allowed on this server?
Definitely not. Not fair to anyone else if doing so, it ruins the game and the server.

2. If an area is not claimed/protected, then is it allowed to be griefed?
No, it's other people's stuff that does not belong to you. You can't just steal stuff or completely destroy just because you think it's funny or you need it. you have to find your own. it's unacceptable behavior and you can be dealt with the consequences.

3. If you can't find the animals you are looking for around your area, is it ok to go to another player's area and kill their animals? What are some acceptable options instead?
No, it is not okay to be doing so, they had to find two animals in one area (to breed) or had to sell items so they can get spawner eggs. So they had to work for these animals, and it's only fair to do the same.

4. When you realized your actions would get you banned, what should you have done in that moment instead of not speaking up about it?
In the first place I shouldn't have took the items in the first place. I should've just done the work instead of killing or taking other people's stuff/animals. Or in that moment gave it all back.

5. If you didn't need it the first place, why did you take it?
I didn't know that I could buy materials in the server, I did have a lot stuff to sell to buy more things but instead I saw somebody have a butt load off sheep and endrods (I couldn't go to the end because it was hard to find blazes in the nether) so I took them. But then later on by looking through the chat, finding out how people can buy and sell stuff. That's when I realized what I have done and was basically waiting the consequences.

6. What have you learned from this experience?
NEVER EVER grief. It's wrong and you're only ruin somebody else time/work, and asking to be banned.

Thank you for your thorough response. It sounds like you understand the rules now. Be sure to follow them from now on, we don't take kindly to second offenders. You've been unbanned.
