Why do you want to come back: This was the best hometown server that I've ever been on, and also where I learned the basics of Minecraft. 

Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord): I was banned on SMP.

Minecraft name: Jozeph985

Reason for your ban: I got banned for using x-ray.

Why should you be unbanned: I did something stupid and have been regretting this for some days now,i do realise that x-ray is not allowed and i should never have used it. I want to come back and redeem myself! i am very sorry and i beg you guys for another chance, a last chance! if i cant be unbanned i hope its possible to get my sentenced redused.

Minecraft name: iiiMonkey

Reason for your ban: Alleged X-Ray

Who banned you: LegendaryRTY

Why should you be unbanned: I should be unbanned because I did not x-ray, and I'm aware that this ban is no appeal. But I must say something. Ever since I was banned, I learned my lesson, and never touched a cheat again. I was falsely incriminated, and I know I'm not the first to be. I was never used X-ray at all since December. I've learned something though. I don't mean to sound rude, but I've realized that staff believe that random mining + finding ores = x-ray. This is simply not the case. It never will be. Ores are extremely common through out the world; they make up a large portion of it. In this instance, I was falsely banned after mining. There was no evidence that I was x-raying, and if there is I'd like to see it, but I won't, since there is none. I have proof that I'm innocent, and that I wasn't cheating, or x-raying like you suspect. Before banning people without evidence please, listen to their points. If you want to hear about the evidence, well, it will prove my innocence. I'm sure of it. By using a screen recorder, I recorded the entire session I was on (the one I was jailed and banned during). I have the file. I don't know how to send it to you, or how you'd prefer it but I'm telling the truth. I did not x-ray. I'd never do it again on this server. Please let me know how you want the file given to you. Thank you for reading this. I appreciate it.

Why do you want to come back: I really enjoy playing on the server with all of my friends I've made. It's one of the best I've come upon, and out of the dozens of servers I have visited I have never been able to find one as fun and well-made as this one.

Minecraft name: The_Muffin_Man_

Reason for your ban: X-ray

Who banned you: RTY/melaniebeedot

Why should you be unbanned: Okay, I am in a difficult position so I will try my best to reconcile it by being 100% up front and honest. I am not trying to avoid taking responsibility, I am not trying to weasel my way out of anything, I just want to explain myself so hopefully things can be worked out. I realize how dumb this may sound and how it may sound like I'm simply lying,but I was not x-raying. I realize that this is what all x-rayers say but I legitimately was not x-raying. Firstly, I would like to say that I acknowledge how x-raying is awful. It is a cheat that seriously ruins SMP servers like hometown and never in a thousand years would I succumb to using it. It isn't fair to those who earn money legitimately and it can easily ruin server economies. I 100% do not condone its usage and think it is a cheap and dirty hack to use. In realizing that it is hard defend myself in saying that I wasn't using it, I will try my best to be honest at every turn and try to explain my behavior. I'll start from the beginning. I had just started playing on the server again and was advised that the quickest way to earn money was by mining. I had earned about a thousand dollars by selling items from the drop party and thus quickly invested in a god pick and devoted myself to mining. At least initially, I was mining with XRenaissance who I bet could also testify that I was mining in my legitimate fashion. My mining style is odd, but I believe I have perfected it after years of play. I /wild, dig about either in zig zags or straight strips (I also hope to find caves or ravines to make it easier). Then, every so often, I dig perpendicular to my tunnel from my position as far as my reach allows because I believe that allows me to uncover some ores that are hiding from my 1 block tunnel or Cave limited point of view and this sometimes works, but it oftentimes does not as well. I'm sure evidence will show that I dig these off-shoot tunnels and find nothing but cobblestone many times. I will say this, over the last couple of days my mining efforts have been more lucky than I could've hoped and sometimes I would dig a tunnel and soon find diamond and I would literally think "Oh my lord, they're gonna think I'm x-raying" and sometimes I almost even said this in chat but decided against it because it might needlessly incriminate myself. In general, I believe that my odd mining style (which I would be glad to elaborate more on) in combination with a decent amount of luck (even though there were stretches where I found nothing but cobble) attributed to what may seem like x-ray. I even dreaded this combination when I was mining but figured I was being paranoid. I realize that this combination of factors may clearly seem like an x-rayer trying to cover for himself, and there's not much I can do against this. I am trying to be as thorough and honest as possible and I will cooperate with all future inquiry too, but you must believe me I was not x-raying. Another thing is that I would always bring plenty of torches with me and keep my mining well-lit. This may be wrong but I think x-rayers do not need to use torches. There was one time I was mining a tunnel in the dark with my screen brightness on max and my face pushed closer to the screen because I was too lazy to grab more torches but in general I always use torches. There also must be evidence of me /wild'ing to places, digging straight down and then digging some short tunnels only to find nothing and then /wild'ing to another location to try my luck again. I could be wrong but I don't think x-rayers do this. With my luck, came many periods of the worst luck, where I just mined basic ores and cobble for a while, hopefully this shows and at least slightly bolsters my case. I apologize for the lengthy appeal I just really am trying to show all the evidence that might even slightly suggest that I was not x-raying. I wish I had more evidence than logic, but I will keep trying. I literally dreaded that this might happen whenever I found diamonds quickly so maybe I should've taken some screenshots or something. You can ask XRenaissance and I bet he would be able to testify that there were times when I couldn't find a dang thing and how I mined a straight tunnel for who knows how long. I can't do much but promise you that I was not using x-ray, and hope that this lengthy, thorough appeal gives that notion credit. If I was x-raying I would have simply owned up to it and pledged to do better, but I really was not using x-ray hacks. If you would like more explanation I would gladly give it to you, I realize my situation and will do almost anything to reconcile it but I really think this is a misunderstanding. I spent hours mining, in my thorough, yet odd, style and had some luck and some misfortune. I was partially with a friend who can hopefully back me up. I used tons of torches in almost all my mining efforts. I would never betray the server that I love and hopefully this degree of explanation reflects that. Using x-ray on a server like this would be an awful thing to do, and I recognize that and would never ever do it. Please believe me. Also, I mined all different types of ores, even though I was targetting diamond, and if I'm not mistaken, most x-rayers seldom pay attention to these other materials, like coal, of which I mined many stacks.



Why do you want to come back: I just began to play hometown again after months of being unable to. I love playing on this server and would never intentionally break the rules. I 100% understand the actions of the staff. I realize how part of my mining efforts may have seemed suspect, and am not mad at them, I simply believe that there is a misunderstanding here. I love the community of a server like this and I was playing with a good friend. I would not have wanted to ruin it by using an awful cheat. I even bought VIP2 because I love the server so much. It truly is a remarkable server and I really want to be a part of it again. I promise I will never use any cheats, and that I never have. They create unfair advantages and honestly ruin the work of many and the general honest vibe of a server like hometown. If I am let back on, I pledge to continue to be straightforward with my affairs and be honest in my play. I was not using x-ray hacks and I would happily explain myself further if it will help let me back on. I love this server and would never jeopardize my connection with it. I realize the weaknesses of my argument but I implore you to recognize my thoroughness and straightforwardness. Please believe me. Thank you for considering me. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to clear my name.

Sincerely,
Muffin

Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord): SMP

Minecraft name: Nasa741

Reason for your ban: Troling

Who banned you: Kat
Why should you be unbanned: It has been a long time and I have stoped trolling people. 

Why do you want to come back: I'm really kinda bored and I remember this server as being fun 

Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord): smp.hometownmc.com

Minecraft name: daisygirl500

Reason for your ban: theft/grief

Who banned you: Illogical

Why should you be unbanned: I believe I was banned for taking a bed from a set up I came across while trying to find my home I made with a friend a while back and the /home command wasn't working. I was upset and didn't process that even though the bed broke and i could pick it up it was still considered grief. I know grief of all forms are banned on the server and I won't break or steal from someone else's home again.

Why do you want to come back: I have made really good memories with my friend timmy and really want to find our home again so I can continue to explore the map and relive the fun again.

I think that it would be a pretty good idea to be able to attach an item for /hat to your helmet so you can be protected and look stylish. It would be easier for people who have blocks on their heads and wear elytras because they could withstand more damage.

Reason for your ban: I stole 4 diamonds from someones base it was like a natural underground since I was just starting out I replaced it with smooth stone in the walls.

Who banned you: Uber

Why should you be unbanned: If I am honest with you I built a base with my friend Nightcore awhile back which you can check we built two towers next to each other on islands that we connected. He has been in a homeless shelter for awhile so I have no had communication with him and I just want to go on a revisit what Him and I built together, after that I dont mind what happens but the memories are still there.

Why do you want to come back: The same reason I put up there just to relive the memories I haven't had contact with him and we both re downloaded minecraft and hometown was the first server we played on together again, I just wanna go see and I took 4 diamonds though yes it was still griefing and I tried to be clever about it I honestly didn't think anyone would notice 4 missing diamond ore blocks in the wall in a base that massive.
