[Moonlight] ForeverSharp's Ban Appeal

1. Server name: Skyblock.net

2. In-game name: ForeverSharp

3. Full exact ban message: Banned: Griefing. Appeal @ skyblock.net ~Moonlight

4.Did you read the rules? More than I can count.

5.Why do you think you were banned? Griefing.

6. Was this an incorrect ban? Absolutely not.

7. Have you been banned before? If so, what for? Yes, for Illegal Trade, setting someone on fire, and dousing someone with lava.

8. I admit that I do sometimes grief, 99% of the time I end up fixing the damage I do completely after having a little bit of fun. But I did leave one island in ruin. It's a long story. It was late at night, no mods on. I saw a nondonor in chat(who will remain anonymous) claiming he had been bridged to and looted. I tp'd to him and followed the bridge, him tagging along with me. After what seemed like the longest bridge ever, I found the mother ship - the island many looted ones led to. There must have been 30 islands around it that were connected by bridges, all of them obliterated.

I said to him " Tonight, they will learn." And we both would agree justice was served. This is where I messed up, and I knew it before it even happened. I broke the most prioritized and enforced rule, I thought It was fair at the time. But in the end, I could've waited for a mod, and the "Bridger" would be the one having to type this appeal, not me. I've been told and taught this same concept since kindergarten, " Tell a teacher". It never really seemed satisfying enough to do this. But something really went through my head and stayed in it when I tried to log on today. Bright red letters " Banned".

It was like an instantaneous lecture, or a crack of the whip, one that convinced me that it's not worth it to take matters on my own hands. If I have learned one thing from this ban, it is to never risk getting banned over temporary satisfaction such as my griefing rampage.

Thank you, that's what I needed. As I stated, there isn't a template for me to follow. I will edit accordingly.

You've been banned for griefing before. And illegal trading

If you've griefed before and have gotten unbanned after reading the rules. Yet you've broken it again. Why should I unban you this time?

 

As mentioned in my appeal, I was banned for dousing someone with lava. Technically this would be considered "Griefing"; but it doesn't take much knowledge at all to realize that destroying an island and dumping lava on someone are not to be categorized together, but that's irrelevant.

This time, I really felt the true power of a moderator like yourself. It's intimidating, I thought I would never get caught. But unfortunately I did, and now that I stand corrected, it is very unlikely that I will make the same choice again.

I believe people can change. All it takes is a bit of firmness, and that is exactly what has been put fourth. I am now fully aware of what will happen if I decide to grief, there is no getting away with it.

Yet you've broken the rules again. Why should I trust that you will not in the future?

 

This ban was the time I came to a point of realization that I might not get unbanned. I can't blame you for being extra tough on me for this one. I actually thank you, I felt like I was unstoppable because I knew it wouldn't be hard to get unbanned. You've shown me that the staff of the server are no longer pushovers,but a force to be reckoned with. I respect that now. It just had to be shown to me directly for me to fully comprehend. That being said, with technology always advancing(even in Minecraft), there are less and less ways to get away with things everyday. I have accepted that it is absolutely a death wish to grief someone now, and I'm not willing to risk losing the account I spent quite a bit of money on.
The next time I see a bridger mothership island, I will think twice about griefing it. I've learned the hard way that it will not end well.

 

I will be indeed quite harsh on you since this is your third ban.
You shouldn't even think twice about griefing. You should not grief at all. Period.
Nor break any of the rules. Next time you decide to break a rule, you will be perm banned.

You will be unbanned in 2 days.

 

Your ban appeal has been accepted.
