You know, I joined the Sky Block server because I thought I'd try something new. I'd never played an alternate world of Minecraft before and when I did try it, I enjoyed it. After starting my home, I noticed several people in the chat asking to join islands and I wanted to be nice to them. I let them join, I made myself a donor 100 and Godded their items for them. Filled my inventory full with stacks of Godded items and had drop parties at spawn, several of them and I dropped my entire inventory of stacked Godded items each time so that most of everyone that participated would get something from it. I Godded as many items as people wanted just for one voter's key. And then people had to ruin it. The ones I let join my island griefed it. I didn't know who griefed my island and none of them could prove who did it so I left them to have my island that I had worked so hard on. One of the people that had joined the island that I left convinced me to give them one chance to prove to me that they weren't the one who griefed if they could join my new island. Because I am such a nice person I agreed to it and let them join. While we were building, I noticed they were having some trouble keeping up with my building because I could fly and they couldn't so, out of the kindness of my heart, I purchased the $20 fly mode for their account. They were overjoyed and I was happy to make someone else happy. They convinced me to put permissions to them as well as myself, sharing all the items in all the chests. I thought they would be respectable and understand that items placed in the chests, the important items like diamonds, iron, spawners and grass shouldn't be touched unless they were the ones who put it in the chest or if it were me who put it in, that they would ask if they could use them because they weren't the ones who put the items in the chest. I didn't actually mind that they used my stuff, they put in quite a bit in return but then something happened that made me feel like I can't trust anyone to be respectful. I purchased the $45 diamond pack from the donations for Skyblock so I could purchase something from another player that would cost me 20 of those 32 diamonds. Not thinking and out of pure habit, I put the remaining 12 diamonds into one of the co-owned chests instead of my enderchest. A few short days later I notice those 12 diamonds, several stacks of grass, iron among other items from the chests missing and I cannot locate my island partner. I have been trying to message him for over a week now and every time I try, it says that player is not found. I contacted a mod to try and get my diamonds back and they said because they were cooping my island that there was no way to get my diamonds back. Now I know 12 diamonds doesn't seem like such a big deal but to me, it's more that that, it's not just about the diamonds. I have decided that I don't care I have wasted my money. I don't care that they stole my diamonds or played at my inner kindness any more. I don't have half a mind to ask a mod if I can take his fly away that I bought him and use it for something else for my account any more. I just want to talk to him. I want to ask him why, why did he do this. After all I had done, after being so nice to him, why did he steal from me. Now, I don't want to name him because I don't want any fights breaking out but if you're out there and you read this, please, please, just talk to me in game! I'd really appreciate it because I just feel like being nice to everyone is not going to do anything when everyone just lies, cheats and steals. Minecraft is supposed to be a fun game to play with your friends and honestly, I have no friends in real life and I was trying to make in game ones. I guess...I just feel like I'm not meant to have any friends.. And just so other people who read this and reply know, I will not reply to your messages, but I will read them. I know trusting others was my own fault but..I was..I just thought that, well, I don't know what I was thinking any more..
Its not a help thread. Of course if you want the diamonds i dont mind giving you some. I admire your kindness. Im sorry someone took advantage of that. Its horrible when people just play with your feelings and use you. Personally I think it hurts ending up the one unhappy when you gave so much of yourself. I think that if someone is naturally nice, they do not see themselves being used. They just keep giving until someone pushes them too far. Sorry for my ramble. Sincerely someone who now has little trust in anyone.
Wall of text On another note this is sad that that happened. I have had this happen to me too so if you wanna play with me ingame you're more than welcome. I hope you resolve your issue soon.
Sorry this happened to you... Thanks for continuing to play and for your donations too. Looks like krissy is going to hook you up
People can be like that. And sometimes you may never know why, and yes, sometimes not knowing why is painful. There's some good and some bad in everyone. I personally try to find the good in people, but sometimes, people just can't help showing their bad side. Sometimes people make mistakes, and not all mistakes can be taken back. Some people get it in their head that wealth and things (even virtual things), will make them happy. And sometimes, their dark side shows, and they do anything to get that wealth or those things. It's quite likely they'll regret it, either soon after or some day, and if not, then they'll be made to regret a similar event. Most times they can't go back though. They can't admit that they've done it, give it back and pretend it never happened, because they know that no one else will let them forget. Personally, I've developed a slightly thicker skin then once I had, and I've become better at putting up certain barriers and being able to say no, and stand up for myself at times. I can still be quite the optimist though at times, and sometimes people have called me naive. I'm not naive though, I know about the world... I just have moments of pure optimism. I would off to help out, but I have little to nothing on net. XD It seems like Krissy will give you your diamonds back. I know it's not the same, it's the principal of it. But at least the act of kindness might restore a little faith in humanity? (Don't worry, you can trust Krissy ) I just hope that you don't lose all trust or hope in people. There's still good in the world, I promise. Maybe when you've healed from this, you can trust again. Maybe you'll find your own barriers and your own way to stand up for yourself, while still being able to trust others. Anyway, I'm sorry it happened. I hope you can get your answers, but if you don't, I hope you can still heal. And there will all will be friends around, you just may not have found then yet.
Kids always try to fool everyone else. It's the law of life. Just understand and accept it. And be more mature. P.S. join our island if you wish.
If you'd like to meet some skyblockers who aren't jerks, come on the skyblock ts sometime. the ip is skyblock.teamspeak3.com. Try it. We don't bite.....much.
It is not a good feeling when someone takes advantage of your kindness, it is even worse if you trusted them. It sucks, but all you can do is move on and hope it doesn't happen again. :/
I'm sorry that happened to you. I can't give you diamonds but I'd be happy to give you 4 DC's of SmoothStone. Keep up the kind and giving heart (but learn the lesson of wisdom from the school of hard knocks ) and be more careful (e.g. Trust, but verify If you don't want the DC's of stone to sell for diamonds I have assorted stacks of wood if you're more interested in building something. Just msg me and I'll arrange a drop off at skybase tomorrow, Lord willing, when I get back on.
