      • Punished account name: xinnify (was BelleDoIphin)
      • Platform or server punished on: skyblock
      • Ban message if applicable: looting a casino
      • Have you read the rules? yes
      • Do you think this punishment was incorrect? kinda
      • Why should you be unbanned? because i feel as a 31 day was a bit harsh as the owner received everything back and i know his casino was all empty because of me and maybe others played once or twice and then realized that it was empty and mailed narwheenie to restock and i just dont understand why he doesnt get punished for swearing via: d.a, sht i think perhaps a week ban would be more reasonable. i mainly looted because narwheenie and his friends like wadiigotzaza were talking smack about my friend edgelesscake saying that he sucks at casino making and he is such a sellout which isnt true its just that one part of the redstone was missing which i dont understand why nar acted as if only edge is forgetful sometimes redstone is complex ofc every now and then youll miss something that you fix later AND i have helped the community become better by sending evidence to megan multiple times of people breaking the rules like swearing or ban books
      • Please list any other times you were punished on Skyblock: inappropriate signs around august and griefing like a week ago even tho i placed back what i broke
      • If you know, tag the staff member that banned you: Frez
      • Do you understand and accept our rules and code of conduct? yes

    Hey there, thankyou for taking the time to appeal.

    In this appeal you state that you believe 31 days is a bit harsh.
    I understand that. However when issuing this ban, there was many aspects I had to consider.

    1. Your ban history. You where very recently banned for something similar which shows to me that you did not learn your lesson. You have also been previously banned for breaking over rules, showing your disregard of the rules.

    2. The complexity of this case. You and edgeless went out of your way to hide this. Not only the way you hid the items but how you used alts to avoid suspicion.

    If you see people breaking rules, then you report them. This point won't get you off the hook for what you did.

    Again, this is not an excuse. Yes, that individual shouldn't be rude, you should also report if you think they are being overly unkind.

    We appreciate all reports, it helps us keep the community safe and enjoyable. However, this doesn't give you an excuse to break the rules.

    I hope this has explained to you why 31 days was an appropriate time length. I appreciate you helping locate the items. However, all of this leads me to ask the question, can I trust you not to do this again?

    When I was investigating you were present the hole time and had plenty of opportunity to come forward and admit what you had done. But you didn't. You went out of your way to hide Nar's items that you stole from them in order to keep them for yourself and even sell them for your own profits. Additionally, in this appeal, all you have done is tried to pass the blame onto others.

    So, how am I supposed to trust that you won't do this again? You knew it was wrong yet continued to do it and lie about it.

    So, if you wish to continue, please answer these questions:
    . Why do you think you should be unbanned? (without mentioning other's actions)
    . How are you going to avoid this in the future?

    Thankyou and I hope to see a response soon.
    - Frez

    I think I should be unbanned because it would be common sense to anyone to hide the fact that they did it. Of course I wanted to give the items back as you learned more about the situation but I was afraid if I private messaged you or Megan that I did it, I would still have gotten banned for the same amount of time so I assumed my best bet was to avoid admitting and I care about my reputation in anything I spend lots of time in like skyblock. I feared that my ban message would be public to chat that said “looting a casino” or something like that would be obvious I did it

    I will avoid this in the future simply by not visiting their island which I’m probably already island banned from multiple islands including Nar’s and will not discuss further information about it

    I just really think you should trust me this time as I repaired the damage I caused last week by griefing which indicates that I did not want to get punished and I have better shaped this community with Megan also I really think I can help even more by catching people using alts for the hunt on Christmas to redeem my fails in skyblock as I know many people who used them on the previous Halloween hunt I just didn’t get any evidence and I can understand why this gets denied if it does so sorry

    I spent lots of time looking into this case. I have always said, Honestly is the Best Policy. If you where honest from the start of the investigation, which you were present for, then your punishment would not have been as lengthy.

    You say this yet you were willing to risk it by looting the casino anyway.

    We encourage actively trying to improve yourself and making up for your actions here, hence our appeal process.

    Yet, you repeated your actions, to a much more severe degree, and lied about it. This indicates to me that you did not learn your lesson.

    Regarding this, it is not your job as a member of the community to actively seek and "catch" people breaking the rules, that puts you at risk which we highly discourage. This is also why our report system is private and confidential. When you return please keep making reports, we truly appreciate those, however please do not go out of your way to catch people as you may be putting yourself in danger.

    It has been less then 24hours since your ban, due to the severity of this case, I do not believe that was enough time for you to reflect on your actions. It has been a week since your last ban yet you repeated that rule breaking which earned you another. I do not trust that you will stick to what you have said yet.

    If you wish to continue, Please make another appeal in a week. For now I will deny this one as I do not believe you are ready to re-join our community yet.

    Thankyou for your time.
