  Ban Appeal
Posted by: Hydreigon - 09-14-2017, 03:25 PM - Forum: Ban Appeals - Replies (1)

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

Minecraft name: Hydreigon

Reason for your ban: X-ray

Who banned you: Grimm-Wolfe

Why should you be unbanned: first, i won't deny that i've used x-ray. usually, i only use it for the cave light thing (honestly) and rarely do i ever actually x-ray for ore. i live with my friend (ninjusfelus) and we both go diamond mining. again, i won't deny i've used it, but many of the diamonds i've found were either by accident (whether it's digging to expand our house) or simply out in the open. both of us have accumulated many diamonds (my friend does NOT use x-ray, does not have it installed) over the course of a few(?) months playing. so, i understand the ban. i know it effects the economy. it was just the other day i used by diamonds to buy quite a few items (while also selling nether quartz, which i typically find by 'worming' around in the nether and hoping i don't come across lava..i have used x-ray to find nether quartz ore, but not very often. it's really just mining.)
thinking back on it after rereading, i don't want to accidentally lie somehow. i have gotten quite a few diamonds from x-raying, yes, and i do know this was a stupid thing to do. i do not want to lie to you grimm_wolfe, or any of the other admins. i don't have a reason to. but again, i think the most recent time was earlier this month, i believe. i don't wish to argue, so correct me if i'm wrong (or scold me harshly if i'm wrong really, whatever you'd prefer) because i have a bad memory. i apologize again for i'm not very good with economy stuff, but my diamonds and quartz i've sold to get money weren't fairly gained, and therefore i have money i shouldn't have gotten. i was hasty for some reason, whether it's armor or tools, and i apologize. i did not wish to harm the server economy, but i suppose i just wasn't thinking. i should've made things fair and just worked like everyone else, whether that's strip mining or selling various things to other players to help boost the economy normally.
i apologize for it, and if allowed back on, i will be more than willing to give the admins/mods my diamond items (tools, armor, etc.) or whatever else they ask for. i will also be more than willing to pay most of my money to one of them, if that's a thing. i'll definitely remove the mod from my folder and not touch it on this server again, you have my word. i know i rarely chat on the server but i don't have any reason to say and not do this. i rarely did it before, and there's no reason to have it anyways, i legitimately just enjoy the cave bright thing more than torches. but of course like i said, i can remove it, no problem. i'd be happy to provide proof somehow? not sure how, maybe a picture of my .minecraft folder while i'm on the server with my hand holding my minecraft UN? heh, if that'd work, i'd do it. yeah. i'm not lying about anything i've said, and i hope you'll believe me. i do have regrets now, and yes, i know it's because i got banned. it's my fault completely. i hope you don't think i'm making this all up as some kind of try-hard sob story or whatever. again, i swear i'll never use that mod again, on this or any other server. i was dumb, plain and simple.

i keep editing because i want to make this as honest as possible, i'm sorry for the essay. i want to say how i'll learn from this (i saw this in another ban appeal post and, well, might as well answer)
alright. i'll learn to not mess with mechanics in place for a legitimate and good reason. i've affected the economy and that can have negative repercussions on the community as a whole. i can't expect to not get in trouble for doing these types of things, that's for sure. i wasn't feeling cocky or anything, i had a feeling this would happen and i know i should've just stopped dead in my tracks, uninstalled, and continued like a regular player. i've learned that.. man, sometimes i am just dumb and this is what happens. if you go against rules, it's gonna come right back at you basically. plus, where's the fun if you just find all the good stuff immediately? the point of the game is to take your time and have fun, not rush into things hastily so you can maybe get some good armor and tools. don't be a moron, i'll say to myself (too little too late)
okay, that was a wall of text oops

(oh my lord another edit. i'm trying, guys! really i am)
so, how it affects the economy...i want to say it's similar to counterfeit money? if not gained fairly? basically, i mass-produced (sure let's go with that term) money by x-raying for 'dirty' diamonds, selling them, thus creating..inflation? i believe; i'm reading up on it right now and i'm still not 100%
the more 'fake' money i've gotten, the higher the price can be on things for other players? as in, i can artificially inflate the price? err, i'm very sorry for not understanding the topic properly. maybe it's deflation and i'm talking like a complete buffoon..

Why do you want to come back: my friend and i both very much enjoy the server. we've built everything from scratch, and we barely use the shops or buy things. it's just a nice semi-vanilla to relax on and work on our farm house. the community from what i've seen is so much more welcoming than many other servers i've had the displeasure of playing on. i now play on one other server besides this one, and it's, honestly, slowly dying, which isn't great. hometown has a lively community and i'm confident that i can play for months without worrying about it going downhill. also, i've donated $10 to get VIP1  (it was $10, right? the VIP1 package? sorry, i can't quite remember at this moment), and (while i know it isn't much) i never donate to servers unless i know i'd be playing on it for quite some time. i do hope you consider unbanning me so i can do whatever i need to return items/money/whatever you'd like, just so i can enjoy playing with my friend on our farm. i do want to ask if, in the case that i'm unbanned, my friend can keep a portion of the diamonds considering they found a lot also. i want to say half a stack, but i'm sure you have ore logs to tell you how many they've broken compared to mine anyways. everything else will go to the admins to be destroyed and i will start saving/enchanting from the beginning by fairly selling various ores i find through regular mining.

thanks for your consideration. again, i apologize. i didn't plan on buying anything major with the money i got, just enchantments, really. 

i've edited this a bunch so um. yeah, i think that's all i can write for now. i didn't want to leave out any details, and i may have but just forgotten, so....thanks for reading this novella

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

Minecraft name: ItzAbbyDoe

Reason for your ban: Stealing

Who banned you: Star

Why should you be unbanned: I think I should be unbanned because, I am a very helpful person and I'm honest. I regret doing what I did and I know it was wrong I shouldn't have done it. I get along with the people on the server well. I was desperate and didn't put effort in doing things for myself at the time. I know I wont do it again like I said I regret doing it. I'm being honest I stole I know I did. I just wanted some better things but I was impatient and ill be patient this time I wont steal again. I'm so Very sorry to the people I stole from its not right I know the people I must have stole from must fell terrible. I know how it feels its not a good feeling I was stolen from before on a server the stole everything from my town. Star you were right to ban me and I'm sorry to everyone.

Why do you want to come back: I want to come back to the server because its like the only server I go on anymore because its hard to find great servers with great communities and amazing people. Everyone is so kind and helpful. I also have some friends on the server who are so nice. I just would hate to be banned from the server forever or something I would lose so much cuz everyone is so nice I will miss out. I haven't found such a good server in forever. I just hope I will get the opportunity to get another chance to prove that I can follow the rules and obey. I'm sorry to everyone for what I did wrong.

  1st Shift Tales
Posted by: Grimm_Wolfe - 09-11-2017, 05:20 AM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (64)

Well, this will be an active continuation of the 3rd Shift Tales thread, as I've started a new job at yet another food place.  This time, morning shift at a donut shop.  Different shop, same shit it would seem-albeit the people are nicer.

Names will be changed or omitted.  This thread will list the ups and downs of working in a restaurant business, and all the dirty secrets and observations I notice.  Like the book, "Down and Out in Paris and London", I'll write my observations of the restaurant I'm employed at in its absolute bluntness.  Read at your risk, and patron at restaurants at your own risk, too.  Most restaurants fail in one area or another, so good-luck finding a perfectly clean place.  Enjoy reading~

Day 1:  The new boss-man looks like Scruffy from Futurama, and I silently chuckle at this.  The outside and sitting area of the store looks immaculate, especially with the 99% approval rating from the health inspectors.  Seems like a facade though.  The kitchen and storage areas are grungy as fuck.  Old, brown and yellow grease stains mar the walls where the fryers are located, the racks are specked with random shit, fruit-flies are buzzing around and on the donuts-I'm told, "don't worry about it" by coworkers.  The water-heater was corroded and black.  The boss-man also stepped on a spider the size of a game dice in the middle of the kitchen.

Not all's doom-and-gloom though.  I met a rather nice senior citizen and USAF-veteran that I'll name Mr. Jimminy.  Very cool man and he tells lots of stories.  Told him about my mom being in USAF, too, and we had a good conversation.  He made jokes about my name in reference to ancient heroes and asked if I found my treasure yet.  he's a regular so I look forward to seeing him.

Another man I met was also interesting.  He spoke to me in Spanish, assuming I had a Hispanic heritage of some kind.  I replied in Italian just because, only I'm surprised when he replies in Italian, too.  We had a small-talk in Italian and he seemed to enjoy the odd exchange.

Lots of grungy stuff and meeting nice folks, seems like the usual shtick.  I earned about $12 in tips today and get a discount on all the products sold.  I'll stick to the sealed products, at least I know no bugs are in it.



Day 2: More of the same, setting up and meeting cool people.  Talked more with Mr. Jimminy again, so that was fun.  Spent most of the morning filling out large orders for local organizations.  I ran into a lady I did a holster-making class with, she didn't recognize me at first until I asked.  We chatted and laughed.  She then pulled out her phone and showed me a pic of her kink-dungeon whip she made with her leather-crafting skills, which she also hinted at using on her girlfriend.  She also showed me something else made of leather, I think it was restraints or a collar made of leather.  Rick James' song, "Super Freak", is all I can think of as she leaves.

  Alt Banned
Posted by: victorycry - 09-11-2017, 01:09 AM - Forum: Ban Appeals - Replies (3)

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

Minecraft name: Rydenn2

Reason for your ban: Stealing from an AFK farm

Who banned you: LilDivilian

Why should you be unbanned: my alt Rydenn2 was banned because of stealing from an afk farm. However there was no one there when I went into /warp Jellyiron. Upon seeing that my alt was banned, I whispered LilDivilian asking why, and that I was perfectly fine with returning the ingots. We talked about it and found out that I must have came into the afk farm when the other person had left to sell some ingots. We figured out that it was a misunderstanding, and LilDivilian said she would talk to someone to have me unbanned. Which is why I am here now on the forums. Star had told her that I needed to make an appeal. So here I am.

Upon logging into the server with my alt, I have agreed to destroy the iron ingots.

Why do you want to come back: I have been told by LilDivilian that it is okay for my main to keep playing on the server, however I would really like to have my alt on. I don't leave my computer on while im not playing in order to keep low on the wear and tear of the PC parts, so an alt comes in handy. Tongue

I'm just wondering, are we allowed to make our own private nether portals or is there a public portal that we need to use? :/

  PVP Minigame Idea
Posted by: _JELLy__ - 09-07-2017, 07:38 PM - Forum: General - Replies (2)

So I've been thinking about a PvP arena minigame.

It will be called King oh the Hill, and it will be PvP.

The setting will be a hill with a castle in the middle.
About 4 to 10 players (approximately) will start from all sides of the hill, and try to gain control of the castle to become the king of the hill. 

There will be traps and harmful mechanisms around the castle that can only be activated in a specific area within the castle so the king can defend himself from the (lots of) attacking players. There will be corridors, staircases, ladders, vines on the castle walls, secret entrances, bunkers and all sorts of fun furnishings.

I would set up buttons for each player on top of the castle, and players have to click their button to gain points. Each click would be 1 point and the game would end when a specific amount of point is gained (say, 50 points?).

So, whoever controls the castle at the time would have the castle and access to all the traps but he will be alone against a lot of attacking players who all want points. I would set up the button room and trap-activating room in different spots not too close to each other so the king would not have too much power, and he has to fight players and decide between getting points and safety in the castle. I would also try to have a cooldown on the traps so the king has to use em carefully or risk players getting in.

I would imagine that many ppl would become the king of the hill during of the game and it'll be a hot contest and lots of fun. 

Tell me what you think?
