Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord): SMP
Minecraft username: .NotGameFleet694
Reason for your ban (exactly what it says when you try to log in!): X-RAYING
Who banned you: the4neko
Why should you be unbanned (Why should we give you a second chance?): I understand that x-ray is a very serious problem on most of the servers. I was so greedy at that time so I didn't think of anything. I won't ever repeat my mistake and promise not to even think about it. It can even ruin multiple shops and the whole server's economy. I tend not to ever use x-ray to get resources like ores because their value is too high in the server and by cheating it won't be effortful and enjoyable.
Why do you want to come back: I have made many friends on this server and don't want to lose them. This is the only server I play in. So I would like to make friends and remind new players not to make the same mistake as mine. Overall this server is the best for me because it is completely different and has different concept than other servers.

I'll keep my first reply short, if you check the appeal rules:
https://hometownmc.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=3 you can see this thing there:
PSA - XRAYING appeals are accepted on very few occasions. An x-ray appeal must be long and well written in order to even be considered. Before making an xray appeal, please put as much effort as possible or it will be denied.
So I'm asking you to reply with way better appeal. If you feel you would write better appeal in different language, feel free to do so, we can translate it.

Thank you for updating your appeal, definitely better then before, but xray is really serious offense and this is still bit short. So I would like you to answer few questions for me, put effort into them, try to think about them a bit and please write longer answers.
1) You knew well xray was agaist the rules, since you asked 2 times if xray is against the rules and ppl both times told you that yes you would get banned for that. Why you still decided to break the rules?
2) Why do we have Zero Tolerance Policy for xray? Why is xray such a serious offense?
3) You mentioned impact on economy, could you give me more details?
4) Try to think how you would feel if you worked hard for your resources and money and someone else was cheating and getting rich way faster then you.
5) Why should we give you second chance? (not why you want back, but why should we trust you that you won't break any more rules?)

1) You knew well ray was against the rules, since you asked 2 times if xray is against the rules and ppl both times told you that yes you would get banned for that. Why you still decided to break the rules?
Ans)I knew that x-ray was against the rules as I asked 2 times if x-ray is against the rules. And the people said yes and it would get you banned. I did it mistakenly because you know, sometimes our brain just knows what would happen after doing the situation but still does it. That time the same situation happened to me. My brain just decided to test it out. I knew I would get instantly banned after doing it. But my brain did it anyway. And our brain saves the incident that frightens and scares us the most. So I won't repeat my mistake.
2) Why do we have a Zero Tolerance Policy for xray? Why is xray such a serious offense?
Ans)Not only this server, but almost every server has a zero-tolerance policy for x-ray because x-ray is a very problematic matter. It can lead to complete chaos. If a server doesn't have x-ray-related rules, then every person on the server would be rich quickly without even doing anything. It could end up in complete disaster as people would use x-ray to be rich and the hard-working players who collect their resources by working hard would also start to use x-ray. It would ruin the whole concept of the game because we feel happy when we find diamonds normally by ourselves but the x-ray would not have any happiness. It would ruin the whole server economy. And the answer to how is on the other question.
3) You mentioned the impact on the economy, could you give me more details?
Ans)X-ray activities impact the whole economy of the server by just forcing shop owners to less their price of selling ores to them. Xrayers can mine thousands of stacks of ores and sell them to shops for higher prices. They can sell as many ores as they want because there is an unlimited stock to sell on Warp Shop. People are wholesome in the server, they want us to get wealthy like them too, and let us sell our mined stuff to their shop. X-ray could end up letting owners of the shops lower their prices or just deny us to sell to them because of the x-ray players. That is why our server has put a zero-tolerance policy on x-ray and prevents people from doing it.
4) Try to think how you would feel if you worked hard for your resources and money and someone else was cheating and getting rich way faster than you.
Ans)If someone else was cheating and getting rich quicker than me even if I worked hard for them, I would feel very sad and angry at the same time. I would be very frustrated if someone cheating would surpass my balance. If I didn't know that he/she was cheating then I would be happy for their success. But if I knew that they got richer than me from cheating, then it's very hard to control ourselves.
5) Why should we give you a second chance? (not why you want back, but why should we trust you that you w v break any more rules?)
Ans) I should be given a second chance because I have understood my mistake and have set up in my mind to not repeat it. I would be a good player after I come back. I will try to make new people not do the same mistake as mine and would improve my role a lot in this server.

Hi, ty for your patience, as you know now, we take xray really seriously, so deciding if you should be unbanned took some time. After some consideration, we decided to unban you. Your balance was set to 0, and all ores, products from ores, diamond and netherite tools and armor and other valuable items were taken from you.
Once you return, please double check the rules again and follow them this time. Welcome back
