1. Why do you think HomeTown has rules against x-raying?
It’s a main rule on almost any server with an economy not just Hometown, it makes things completely unfair in comparison to players who are legitimately getting their resources. It’s almost akin to shooting fish in a barrel, and it causes an insane imbalance in the rng/ luck of finding ores when you know exactly where they are. It was completely unfair to use this method on a server especially with a lot of player based shops.
2. What damage could allowing x-ray do to the economy ? It has a major damaging effect as it floods the economy with the most expensive/ valuable resources while at the same time depleting store owners balance in the case of chest shops. Also it makes a mess of the area in which the X-ray is used and removes large sections of ores from being legitimately mineable for legitimate players especially in areas like the community mine. It also allows locating points of interest that otherwise may be rarer to find being looted at a way higher rate removing the chance for everyone else.
3. Describe how you will legitimately make money if you are successful in your appeal? If I am allowed back on the server I won’t be using X-ray again, I was slowly finding out how the economy actually works on the server before I went stupid. I found that there are materials you can sell to the server and not just player shops so I can create farms and mob farms to create the resources I will be able to sell rather than focusing only on deep slate diamond. I wasn’t fully aware of the other methods until the night I was banned so I will take advantage of those options and still mine but do it legitimately. Again I feel so bad for my decision, and I know it’s a lot to ask for a second chance, I will accept whatever the outcome is for this appeal and I'm sorry to the community.
