    Punished account name: EvilGod

    Platform or server punished on: Economy

    Ban message if applicable: Inappropriate chat topics

    Have you read the rules? Yes

    Do you think this punishment was incorrect? No

    Why should you be unbanned? I was talking about punching hippopotamus and I wasn't serious because 1. hippos are dangerous and 2. I honestly like animals and I would never hurt them. To explain, I was doing a satire of tough Australian guy bit and I guess it got out of hand. So I'm sorry. I don't believe that my bit influenced anyone to harm any animals because I think most people knew it was meaning to be funny. I think maybe you realize that because it was only for a week and when I come back i will definately try harder to be more appropriate okay thanks.

    Please list any other times you were punished on Skyblock: Along with this time, six times inappropriate chat related topics, twice for ban evasion, once for stalking a player on social media, once for extensive looting and griefing of a players island, and once for using server exploit and promoting that exploit on these forums. I've been punished for farming islands and that resulted in losing the dirt I stole and I've been punished for writing children's books about forest animals that engaged in behavior that was deemed inappropriate by staff and as punishment I lost the original copy almost all of those books. My original forum account was banned on these forums shortly after I posted gangster rap lyrics I wrote that promoted a "Purge" event in the suggestion forums that wasn't very popular and that's why I'm using this account now. Prior to all that, some years ago when i was just an immature kid, I was banned for building a player grinder on my island, but I was exonerated because nobody actually died. That was probably the only punishment I didn't deserve. But honestly I think this was a good exercise for me to remember the trouble I've caused and be thankful that the ban isn't longer. So thank you.

    If you know, tag the staff member that banned you: Novembree <-just a really wonderful person and who makes me happy when i see the funny things they type great mod I hope to be friends with soon.

    Do you understand and accept our rules and code of conduct? Yes. Also, thank you so much for your kind consideration of this ban appeal. And if it's not accepted that's okay I appreciate the skyblock community and another chance to be good when the ban is over.

    Hi there EvilGod, thanks for your patience. Let me get into this :)

    First off, I just want to clarify that you weren't banned because you were talking about punching hippos. You were banned because you began to discuss child grooming in public chat which is completely against our rules. Speaking about grooming can be very triggering for individuals who have gone through that atrocity, and it is completely against our rules regarding inappropriate messages.


    INAPPROPRIATE AND DISRESPECTFUL COMMENTS Found here
    Inappropriate and/or disrespectful comments are comments made to taunt ones race, religion, nationality, sexual orientation, gender, personal values, beliefs, or ethnicity. These comments include, but are not limited to, sexual subjects, potentially offensive subjects, potentially sensitive subjects, or hateful subjects. Respect should be given to every player on the server despite our differences, and any comments made with the intent of circling someone out or making someone uncomfortable will result in punishment.


    Along with this, you made another comment regarding "nailing" someone's wife. I do not think I need to explain how inappropriate this comment is regardless of if it is a joke or not. You also commented multiple times about hurting/punching various animals, which is just not necessary nor funny.

    You have an extensive history and many previous punishments for similar offences. I find it very difficult to trust that you will not continue with this behaviour. What do you plan on doing to make sure this does not happen again?

    Thank you for your time,
    Bree

    oh i am so sorry. i saw this story Trump Shares DeSantis 'Grooming' Accusation Just as Governor Defends Him and i can't remember what i said about it but it wasn't condoning grooming. i was more just wondering how trump gets away with the slandering of people for political gain. I honestly thought joking about animal abuse went on an on and was out of hand. I never suspected that it was that i now know how terrible this must seem. I'm hoping to forgive me now.

    oh the nailing i engaged in that because of something he said and that was wrong i deserve this. see i was joking like him but yeah it was inappropriate sorry.

    okay i understand now i hope you forgive me when you deny this please can you keep it private i don't want anybody to think i'm a weirdo okay?

    for give the multiple responses i read something and instantly i'm compelled to type a response it must be so annoying. i was thinking maybe you could assign me a mentor of someone who is in good standing who can help me be good. just an idea i hope you will consider helping me. okay the end.

    sorry i realized i didn't answer that question. i don't know what to do. when i was muted for a long time i got in trouble in discord because i was bored and when i get banned on one server i start making trouble on another but i really feel like if i can get someone popular to like me the other ones wouldn't report me for everything they do on a regular basis. i know i'm worse because i'm better at being bad than them because i don't have a very good sense of what is inappropriate because if it seems funny to me i think everyone must think it's funny but they don't so to answer your question i think i will try to find someone who is popular and be their friend and that way they can help let me know when i'm crossing the line and also people will respect me because i'm hanging out with someone popular how does that sound for a plan? also i think you are very nice.

    Hey again EvilGod,

    I do not think you are condoning grooming, however this topic absolutely is NOT allowed to be brought up on a Minecraft server where kids are present, (or any Skyblock platform in general). There is no need to bring up topics such as these as it will only lead to discussions that are not favourable.

    Thank you for the apology.

    We do not commonly hide appeals by request unless we have a reason to do so (such as compromised personal info, highly inappropriate topics being discussed or things of that nature).

    If you have a problem staying accountable towards our rules, I recommend you take some time away from the server and re-read our rules a few times so you fully understand them. You don't necessarily need someone of "good standing" to help you be good, this process starts with you. If you have any questions about our rules, I'm happy to answer them. :)

    It is our hope that no one will need to report you at any point going forward, however, if you see someone else who is breaking our rules we are happy to handle the situation if you provide evidence to staff. Please don't try to take things into your own hands and reply to them or try to joke with them. Many trolls get fuel out of getting a response, don't give them that pleasure to 1. hopefully stop them from continuing 2. protect yourself from saying something you may regret in the future.

    Again as I said before, you don't need a popular person to be your friend in order to follow the rules, we hope that with or without your friends around, that you will follow our rules and code of conduct.

    I ask that you please confirm that you have read our rules found here, and our code of conduct found here. As I said before, if you have any questions regarding any part of them please let me know.

    Thanks,
    Bree

    Dear Bree,

    I spent some time rereading and thinking about the code of conduct and the rules. and I read them before a couple times, but you know what you said about how i might be joking about something sensitive and i might inadvertently cause someone pain that sort of stuck with me and made me ashamed and I don't want people to think I'm a bad person like that and I don't think I'm going to have any friends at all now if you make this public because they will hate me when I'm allowed to come on and I'm not asking for my ban to be lifted anymore I just don't want you to show people how bad I was when you archive this okay. I learned my lesson.

    Thank you for taking the time to read the rules and code of conduct, this is a great first step towards improving your behaviour on the server. I hope that you truly have taken our rules to heart and will do your best to abide by them in the future.

    I'm sorry but we cannot take requests to hide an appeal. That said, if you are yourself and are kind to others I'm sure they will not think you're a bad person. I'm happy to hear you've learned your lesson, hopefully this is a learning experience for you overall. :)

    At this point, I will not be reducing your ban. I appreciate your honesty throughout this process, however since this is a repeat offence for you I would really like you to take some time away to contemplate your punishment so you hopefully will return with a better understanding of our server rules.

    If you have any questions or concerns, I will leave this open for one more response.

    Thank you, and have a great rest of your day.
    - Bree
