    1. Your banned account name: MongoDB
    2. Server you were banned on: Skyblock.
    3. Ban message/reason: Due to a perceived offensive skin.
    4. Have you read the rules? Yes.
    5. Do you think this ban was incorrect? No.
    6. Please list any other times you have been banned on any of our platforms: Several times, shouldn't matter in this case however.
    7. Why would you like to be unbanned? I would like to be unbanned because I think the ban handed to me was both too harsh and unwarranted. The skin I have gotten banned for is the same skin I have used since I started playing on this server and is the same skin everyone thought was funny, including a few unnamed staff members. Furthermore, I would like to enjoy the several hundred dollars in ranks I have bought and I am unable to do so from what I believe to be an extremely harsh and injudicious ban from cyk753, who has a history of banning players based on emotion and not due to circumstances.
    8. If you know, tag the member of staff that banned you: cyk753
    9. Do you understand and accept our rules and code of conduct? Yes.

    Hello MongoDB. Bans for inappropriate player names and skins are automatically set for 31 days or until the player successfully appeals. A successful appeal means the player changes the skin/name, understands the server rules, and promises to not break rules again.

    Below is the relevant section from the server rules.
    You may think you're going around the server as a man of Middle Eastern decent (with beard and clothes similar of that region), but the fact that you are holding a block of TNT with the custom name "osama" informs me you really planned to be Osama bin Laden or perhaps one of his followers (or even a suicide bomber). You must think going around a server meant for mostly children as a world renown terrorist is a joke and acceptable. I assure you this is not allowed. Namemc.com shows your history of previous skins. You have been two different versions of Hitler before. I suspect you are here to troll instead of to genuinely engage with the community here.

    The rules are about setting a basic level of common decency and respect for all players to follow. Trying to emulate a terrorist is not acceptable behavior. A follow up to the rules were introduced not long ago (called the player code of conduct) to expand on this topic. Code of Conduct | Skyblock Forums And you should really take the time to read tips on a successful ban appeal, (which is a pinned post). [Read before posting] Ban Appeal Information + Helpful Tips | Skyblock Forums

    If you were to just willing to say you would change your skin to something more appropriate for the server, that would be fine. But you decided to join the game on an alt and try to convince the entire server to harass me.

    This is completely unacceptable behavior. Another staff member will deal with the extreme level of disrespect you have shown towards me. I hope you take the time to realize that all toxic behavior must end.
