Yes, your original appeal did come across very standoffish.
You've been here for a bit over half a month. Yesterday was my first time interacting with you, and I was curious if you were always that way and found, yes, you have very often been as antagonistic as you were with me yesterday. Below are some examples, along with a reminder of our conversation yesterday. Inserted in
red are my own comments.
March 28th, after you got transactions reversed for reselling:
[Regular] AEghost » why do people care if you resell from their shops, I mean you're paying them so why does it matter
[Regular] AEghost » I'm out 10k now fuck me
[Adept] etlowry ⁑ » because you can scam people out of money by just finding shops with differing amounts for an item and getting rich off the difference
[Regular] AEghost » not my responsibility if they don't pay attention to other shops prices
Yes it is. Players can't be expected to fully keep up with every single other shop 100% of the time. This is a video game, not real life.
[Regular] AEghost » it's called competition
[Regular] AEghost » guess they don't need my money oh well
[Regular] AEghost » apparently the mods agree cause they took money I got so whatever I aint gonna die on that hill
An hour later you come back
[Regular] AEghost » thanks to the shop owner for taking 10k from my account for reselling
[Regular] AEghost » sorry you couldn't look at other shop's prices before that but you're full of shit
[Regular] AEghost » I paid you
For the record, your point here is irrelevant. Reselling is prohibited if there are signs up in the shop stating so, and shop owners are permitted to request transactions be reversed if players are found breaking their shop's rules.
[Regular] AEghost » maybe next time do I little bit of exploring prices at other shops
Then, after no one gave you attention, you tried again a few minutes later:
[Regular] AEghost » and also that was a bitch move removing 10k on my account even though I paid you
[Regular] AEghost » I'm not going to ever shop at your store again
Then, someone finally gave you attention:
[Expert] Cake ⁂ » AEghost what happened?
[Veteran] Ouch ⁂ » breaking shop rules has consequences
[Regular] AEghost » shop rules my ass if the shop owners don't explore other shops prices and then blame me for it I'm not apologizing
[Regular] AEghost » maybe be a bit more attentive
[Veteran] Ouch ⁂ » thats not up to you
[Regular] AEghost » sleeping on the job
[Regular] AEghost » not my fault
Yes it is.
[Expert] Squidtown_Squid ⁂ » its one thing making the most of a low price, and another to resell to another shop for a higher price for profit
[Expert] Squidtown_Squid ⁂ » i use low prices all the time, but not to abuse for resell profit
[Regular] AEghost » also not my fault I don't decide your prices
[Regular] AEghost » pay attention some time
[Regular] AEghost » instead of blaming me
You're the one at fault. Regardless of whether or not you agree with certain rules, it doesn't exempt you from needing to follow them.
[Veteran] Ouch ⁂ » they dont have to [pay attention], you just have to do the right thing and follow the shop rules
[Regular] AEghost » the right thing lmao
[Regular] AEghost » my god are you for real
[Veteran] Ouch ⁂ » youre the one bitching and moaning about being banned.... are you real?
[Regular] AEghost » never got banned
[Regular] AEghost » why are you bitching
[Regular] AEghost » punk
[Regular] AEghost » oh my feelings are so hurt right now
[Regular] AEghost » got anything more to say?
[Regular] AEghost » trick
[Veteran] Ouch ⁂ » they must be, since you keep bring up the subject of youre 10k being removed
[Guest] .Ruso8211 » looking for friends to start a base
[Expert] Cake ⁂ » there are plenty of towns where you can go
[Expert] Squidtown_Squid ⁂ » such as warp squidtown
[Regular] AEghost » I don't give 25 shits about any town
[Expert] Squidtown_Squid ⁂ » then we dont give 25 flips about ur opinion :)
[Regular] AEghost » you're attacking me and I'm not letting that fly
[Regular] AEghost » fuck you
*a minute passes*
[Regular] AEghost » that's what I thought
[Discord] NiceBoar » AEghost mind your languag
[Discord] NiceBoar » Or u will be banned
[Discord] NiceBoar » For attacking innocenet player's
[Regular] AEghost » speak english
[Regular] AEghost » do you understand
[Regular] AEghost » comprende
[Expert] Cake ⁂ » chill dawg its not that deep
[Regular] AEghost » that's what I thought
[Regular] AEghost » now back off
Just for the record, YOU started this, and continued to be ridiculously provocative the entire conversation. The player who you resold from was incredibly nice when they requested you not resell from their shop, too, so I continue to have no idea where your hostility came from. For reference, this is what their mail said: "Please do not resell from my store, it explicitly says on the sign at the entrance. :)"
Moving on,
[Discord] NiceBoar » Just move on and report guys don't engage :?
[Regular] AEghost » exactly leave me the hell alone
[Regular] AEghost » I don't want all that bullshit
[Regular] AEghost » especially from a co conspirator that got manipulated into following a fallen mod's ordersd
*Dorito joins*
[Guardian] SelfAwareDorito ⁂ » so AEghost, you cannot swear at other players
[Regular] AEghost » well if they're coming at me like that I'll say what I want
At the risk of sounding redundant, YOU started this.
[Regular] AEghost » sorry bud
[Guardian] SelfAwareDorito ⁂ » you can say what ever you want however there are consequences to your actions
[Regular] AEghost » well dorito or whoever you are if people want to attack me I'll go 2 fold
[Regular] AEghost » I will not let it stand.
YOU started this.
[Regular] AEghost » dorito thinks he's rain man
Then you get /warned.
[Regular] AEghost » ok no problem I'll be good
[Regular] AEghost » but how am I supposed to assert dominance if I don't use rough language?
[Regular] AEghost » should I hug them to death?
[Guardian] SelfAwareDorito ⁂ » dont start shit with other people
[Regular] AEghost » nice people are a myth
[Guardian] SelfAwareDorito ⁂ » you get the energy you give
A concept you don't seem to understand, considering this entire interaction was started by you and you somehow managed to convince yourself you were the victim.
[Regular] AEghost » well in that case I can just double it
[Regular] AEghost » anyone want to talk shit about me then their ass is grass
[Guardian] SelfAwareDorito ⁂ » again ghost, all you need to do is /ignore
[Regular] AEghost » why would I do that
[Guardian] SelfAwareDorito ⁂ » and just play minecraft
[Regular] AEghost » if they want confrontation I got it
[Regular] AEghost » 10 fold
[Guardian] SelfAwareDorito ⁂ » again, im not sure why you are behaving as if this is real life
[Guardian] SelfAwareDorito ⁂ » its a minecraft server
[Regular] AEghost » you have a point. alright time to sober up and see you later
Some more comments from various other dates:
[Regular] AEghost » currently formulating a way to exploit the market to make money without breaking rules
[Regular] AEghost » why would I follow the rules when I can make money off them
[Regular] AEghost » warp bam is buying deepslate diamond ore for 200 a piece
[Regular] AEghost » I bought some from another shop for half the price then sold to bam but someone got butthurt do I lost my money
[Expert] THECHOCOLATEONE ⁂ » that is bc resell is against rules lol
[Regular] AEghost » It's not my fault people don't look at other people's prices
[Expert] THECHOCOLATEONE ⁂ » it is
[Regular] AEghost » explain
[Mod] esptree✦ » it is your fault that you don't look at signs tho
[Veteran] YourAngel ⁂ » It IS your fault for breaking shop rules
[Regular] AEghost » oh shop rules im so scared
[Regular] AEghost » what are you gonna do
[Regular] AEghost » like I said next time someone starts a shop they might want to look at competing prices
[Regular] AEghost » instead of tattling to the mods
[Mod] esptree✦ » or.... look at the shop rules and follow them :)
[Regular] AEghost » why would I follow the rules when I can make money off them
Players are expected to follow the rules. ALL players, regardless of rank. If you don't like them, I advise you to find a server that permits that behavior.
[Regular] AEghost » at the end of the day we're all at the mercy of retarded minecraft server mods so it doesn't really matter
[Discord] the4neko » AEghost, please don't use that or I'm gonna have ban you
[Regular] AEghost » ok I won't use that again
[Regular] AEghost » are you happy now
[Guest] .chamoy_IV » whys excessive caps a rule?
[Regular] AEghost » cause they don't want their small brained audience getting triggered
[Regular] AEghost » by some upper case letters
[Regular] AEghost » imagine that
[Guest] .chamoy_IV » i cant swear right
[Regular] AEghost » you can swear but if you hurt their feelings you'll get banned so try to be careful
Now we get to yesterday:
[Regular] AEghost » wwwwwwwwwwwbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
[Expert] Poke ⁑ » watch the key drag
[Regular] AEghost » sorry just matched the drag rate off your momma's face

[Regular] AEghost » ok nether is a deepstate plant moving on they don't deserve any recognition
[Guest] .LadyGracieDandy » Inwish we could jusy copy builds because it took me so long to build this
[Regular] AEghost » you could with world edit but the lazy mods don't want to do it
[Admin] Nether_Ruler
» We literally

[Admin] Nether_Ruler
» Are you just here to be a dick or
[Regular] AEghost » I'm just saying I was a mod for a few years it seems like you're just cutting corners
[Admin] Nether_Ruler
» In what way?
[Admin] Nether_Ruler
» All I've heard you say so far is make a nasty comment about someone's mother and make a claim about something we literally have lol
[Regular] AEghost » these are mod level commands to solve problems though lunar
[Regular] AEghost » these creatures don't know about those commands
[Regular] AEghost » cause they're lazy

[Guest] .Lunar3817 » i was a mod at one point too but i still think it would defeat the whole Survival thing
[Guest] .Lunar3817 » if you want world edit, play on a different server
[Regular] AEghost » well what kind of server do you want to run then lunar
[Regular] AEghost » an anarchy server
[Guest] .EndrixNighto » leave lunar alone
[Guest] .Lunar3817 » dude what?
[Guest] .Lunar3817 » i said world edit defeats the purpose of survival, not that i want anarchy
[Admin] Nether_Ruler
» Dude claims we're cutting corners and then refuses to answer me when I ask what
[Admin] Nether_Ruler
» Curious
[Regular] AEghost » as long as you feel that you're correct then it doesn't matter what I say
[Admin] Nether_Ruler
» Funny way to say "I have nothing"
[Regular] AEghost » that's just it though you haven't made any arguements against what I said
[Admin] Nether_Ruler
» And what did you say?
[Admin] Nether_Ruler
» That we cut corners?
[Regular] AEghost » you're bare balls
[Admin] Nether_Ruler
» I've yet to see how

Given the sheer volume of hostility, refusal to accept our rules, and repeated attempts to provoke others even after warnings and explanations, I won't accept this appeal for the time being. You didn't show any understanding of why your actions were inappropriate, nor did you apologize to the players you've wronged or show any willingness to improve. If you want another chance at being a part of this community, that needs to change. You're welcome to rewrite your appeal, or you can just answer the questions below, up to you.
1. What would've been a more respective and constructive way to express your disagreement with the rules?
2. Do you feel you handled these situations properly?
3. What steps are you wiling to take to ensure this doesn't happen again?
4. You were warned multiple times and continued provoking others. Can you explain why you chose to keep going instead of taking a step back or using /ignore?
