    I think the issue here is that the rules on the main site don't address island farming for the purposes of keeping for yourself, and rather focuses on condemning the selling of those items to other players. I think the rules can use a little editing here. However, the bottom line is keeping items from old island while creating new island means that you are carrying over items that should have been deleted. These are therefore illegitimately obtained - it is very easy for someone to repeat this over and over again and end up with chests full of free dirt! We simply can't allow that to happen, regardless of whether the player is keeping it or selling it. We have always banned players for doing this - I assure you that it's not just you!

    Though this wasn't written so clearly in the rules, and some may expect it to be part of "common sense", it's understandable that you might have taken it as legal to make new islands while keeping materials from the old island for yourself. I think that as long as we're clear that this is not legal and we can make sure this will never happen again, there is no reason to keep you from playing on the server.

    That being said, you are expected to respect staff at all times. I don't like how you called Demon out on banning you for the second time and made comments about her age and maturity without even giving her a chance to reply to your appeal. Accusing the staff of intentionally trying to harm you doesn't help your case either. It is ultimately up to Demon to decide whether she feels you are welcome as a player on the server, and showing respect is one way to prove to her that you deserve to be.

    I understand but the rules must be written based on this. I follow the rules as is.

    I hope the rules will be fixed so I and the next people to read it, fully understand it before making the mistake.

    I respect staff at all times, yes. I apologize for calling Demon out, but this is debate to me. As I said, her age and and how well she does the job is good in another's eyes, but I feel it isn't. That my opinion though. I'm not trying to offend her in any way. I accused staff because I feel and felt threatened by their responses, it's the same with every website I go on. It must be read negatively as I break down the description, that's how I burn information into my mind. I accept the fate I receive and received from demon, but as said, I feel and know that the current rules were followed by me myself and I didn't land out spider of them. I respect people as they respect me.

    Once more please understand:
    I NEVER disobey server rules. I'm the type of person that has a halo over the head. I enjoy helping people, I enjoy playing with people, I'm a competitive gamer, and I'm a technology developer.

    Demon_Angel12 I'm taking over this, if you have an issue with this, PM me.

    I'll unban you, on the grounds that you stop creating new islands and trading the stuff to put in your chests, to sell or keep, it's not allowed. The point of Skyblock is to make do with the small amount you have, if you want grass etc. you can vote and/or donate for it.

    I'll teleport to you as soon as I get in-game and watch you ditch the stuff, if you don't do it soon, I'll do it for you.

    I'm guessing that's every bit of dirt, the sand I'm not worried about. I mean, why would I need cactus? :cat
    It would've been nice two have two lava blocks, but one is obviously enough.

    Please remember, I may need one of a particular item to repopulate it for more as every SkyBlock server.

    If you need lava you can build an obsidian generate, then right click that and it's lava. :)

    It's alright, I let Darkster do it, as I'm hopeless with stuff like that.

    You've taken the items I see, so as evaluated the required items have been removed. I suppose this topic could be locked?

    Hmm, is the Obsidian Generator a choice or a token that a moderator will do it for me?

    You can turn any cobble gen into an obsidian generator by putting a spot of redstone in the spot where cobble is supposed to appear (mine the cobble and place the redstone quickly). It consumes the redstone but gives you an obsidian.
