Your appeal is seriously lacking for such a serious rule break however I will give you a chance to proceed if you answer some questions for me.
1. Why do you think that HomeTown has a strict no x-raying rule?
2. Describe the ways that x-raying can effect the economy on HomeTown.
3. If you are successful in this appeal please tell me the ways you will legitimately earn your money on HomeTown in the future?
Please note that anything less than 3 sentence replies to each of these questions will result in your appeal being denied.

1. "To keep the server fair and fun for everyone—cheating ruins the game.
"2. X-ray makes rare items too common, crashes prices, and hurts honest players.
3 I’ll mine, farm, and trade fairly—no cheats, just hard work.

Your answers are again lacking in detail, I need you to have a long hard think about each question and write a lot more detail.
I asked you for a minimum of 3 sentences for each answer and I'm going to hold you to that. Unless you can prove to me that you have learned from what you've done I can't unban you.

1 . HomeTown has strict co-x-raying policies to be fair and avoid abuse of the system. If there were no rules to govern what to do and what not to do, it opens up the possibility of players taking advantage and getting out of balance. The strict way of what is allowed guarantees that everyone is doing the same thing and ensures that all players are honorable.
2. X-raying has the potential to destroy HomeTown’s economy because players can accumulate resources that could have been established legitimately. Some resources will never appreciate in value with x-raying because every player can never gain resources legitimately. The exploit will create inflation in markets when rare resources become as common as grass. This creates a random economy that eventually leads to a posh of trust in the economy and discourages honest players from playing.
3. If I win my appeal, I will make money honestly from the allowed avenues such as trading, gathering resources with intention, and working on community projects. I will not exploit the system and will work on my thinking by only building Up a great reputation for myself. I will practice transparency by keeping records and trying to adhere to HomeTown's rules as established.

I appreciate the extra effort you've clearly put into your responses, thank you.
By the time you see this you will have been unbanned. Your bal has been reset to 0 and all diamonds and diamond gear you had has been removed and destroyed.
Welcome back to HomeTown!
