SharpSerac, thank you for this post. This is an EXCELLENT question.
The admin team is currently crafting up a rule to explain exactly what this is.

We are aware we have a small gap in the rules on this and will be updating it shortly.
Please keep in mind we all live in different time zones and very much like the ents in LOTR, it takes a long time to have a full conversation about things.

You can expect an update to the rules within a few days.
Thanks again for this post!

Casey_Fluffbat, you were banned for toxic behavior. It is my hope that over the last 2 weeks you have reflected on this and in the future will bring a more positive attitude on the server and discord.
Please know any toxic behavior in the future will not be tolerated and could result in a permanent ban.
You will now be unbanned.
Happy Myning.

ThePhoenix, you were banned for toxic behavior on CM. It is my hope that over the last 2 weeks you have reflected on your attitude towards other players and will strive to have a rewarding experience on CM and with its community.
Please be aware any toxic behavior on the server or on discord going forward will not be tolerated and could result in a permanent ban.
I will unban you now in hopes that you will not resort to toxic behavior in any situation.
Happy Myning.

VIP, you were banned for toxic behavior, and we felt it was needed for you to be on a break from the server.
Be aware toxic behavior will not be tolerated in the future and could result in a permanent ban from CM.

I do hope these last 2 weeks have allowed you to reflect and you will have a rewarding experience on CM and its community going forward.
You will now be unbanned.
Happy Myning.

First off, this is better.

You were banned for toxic play. If you don't feel like you were providing toxic play on the server or in discord then I'm not filled with high hopes for this pardon.
I was not looking for an apology, simply an understanding on your part that toxic play will not be tolerated.
You are now unbanned from the server and discord with my sincere hope that your play will be rewarding for you and for the community of CM.
To be clear, more toxic play will result in a much longer ban.
Happy Myning.

It’s been two weeks today, and based off this ban appeal I don’t think you understand why the ban was put in place in the first place.
Until you show you understand the concern we have, your ban will remain in place.

No rank, whether it be Myner, or MVP, has permission to break the rules, or allotted any kind of leniency.

No

At the end of the day, CraftyMynes is owned by CraftyMyner.
If he decides to unban everyone then he has that right, if he decides to ban everyone, he has that right.
We are all playing on CraftyMynes at the pleasure of CraftyMyner.
He does the best he can, and I hope it’s all we can expect from anyone.

As for the rest of your rant, this is a server run by volunteers looking to give the best experience to like minded minecrafters. We may not always make the best or right decision, we may make different decisions now that some of the older volunteers have moved on.
One thing is for certain, not a single staff member is out to make CraftyMynes unfair, unreasonable, unplayable, or unfun!

We have a wide range of personalities on the server and appeasing them all is simply impossible. However, we do the best we can.

Crafty made these forums for us all to be able to voice our opinions, and I’m glad you did. Some servers don’t allow such things.
Your opinions and thoughts you carefully laid out will be discussed among admins and staff and we will do what we think is best for the server as a whole.
Thanks for your feedback, and happy Myning!
