[IGNSherlock] Illegal Trading [Fun] [Accepted]

1. 1. Server name (.net / .org ): .net
   2. In-game name: IGNSherlock
   3. Full exact Ban Message: Illegal Trading
   4. Did you read the rules ? Yes
   5. Why do YOU think you were banned? Perhaps the misinterpretation of the rules by a mod? But other than that I am not sure, I went to log in and seen I was banned.
   6. Was this an incorrect ban? I do believe so
   7. Were you ever banned before on SkyBlock? If so, what for? An incorrect ban in 2013
   8. Why do you think you should be unbanned? I am not aware of any rule broken which is explicitely stated at the new /warp Illegal

Below is an image of Illegal items to trade, I have not traded anything on that current list.

 

I have been informed it was the TNT trade chest. Which warp illegal doesn't mention TNT and seemed to have added sandstone, call me an old player but I don't even remember even sandstone being listed at the last warp Illegal, if TNT is illegal lets just go ahead and make glass illegal too. Why one and not the other am i right?

Anyways TNT can be made with red sand, has virtually no purpose but /hat and decor and I think there needs to be a revision on it. I also think if TNT was illegal they should put it explicitly stated on /warp illegal, as I stated there is a misinterpretation which a sign says "ect"

So I call for a motion to revise what is illegal, it is very hypocritical for Glass to be legal but not other irreversible forms of sand. But then again I tend to be a very logical person.

I agree, the illegal sand things are very weird, but rules are rules. You have a tradeshop open with TNT as a trade, and that is not permitted. I am sorry that it is not listed at /warp illegals, but I believe the created guessed you'd infer it as it says glass and red sand are legal but sandstone, smooth, etc (which TNT would be in etc) is illegal. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding with /warp illegals, however make sure you read the rules on the forums. The illegal-to-trade items are stated there for you.

I will unban you if you reread the rules (on forums found here: Server Rules | Skyblock Forums) and promise to destory the tradeshop.

 

I will destroy it no worries, But I will also plan make a thread to have that amended. Enforcing the rules I get it, but I don't like the idea that things are the way they are because they have been that way and no one feels like amending things based on logical conclusions. Back in the day Gravel was illegal, and then people realized it makes no sense. So likewise my aim is to have that amended. Because logically sandstone, glass, tnt are irreversible forms of sand, and not only an illogical stance but hypocritical as well seeing that on a daily basis people can convert normal sand from red to normal and back thus by passing the rule.

And again tnt is easily made with red-sand, but anyways that is beating a dead horse and this rant isn't regards to you but I do think its time mods and the community evaluate the stance on Irreversible sand made items. Again going back to glass being no different. We all know no no-one is farming an island twice to get sand to make pointless tnt just to sell it

Stepping off my soapbox, I have reread the rules (updated Mar 30 2016) as someone who has been on the server for 4 years I do not check monthly for amended rules, thus my reliance of reliable accurate in game rules. Since I did check the rules (in game) a couple months ago an nothing was mentioned regarding TNT I assumed since gravel was not illegal and since TNT wasn't mentioned it must be legal too, especially being made with red sand. But I rarely use the forums thus rely on accurate in game information.

And I will remove the TnT trade chest. I don't even recall selling anything from it anyways so I am not heartbroken if I can't sell it, but please understand how difficult it is for me being a logical person to understand an illogical world.

 

Also thanks for understanding, sorry there was a misinterpretation of the rules. I am ready to get on when you have the time to do the unban. I'll remove the chest first thing. fungamer333

Also for anyone reading this:

/Visit SkyShop

It's a very cool and large shopping mall... currently no longer selling TNT

 

Thank you, I understand your frustration

You will be unbanned shortly.
