My younger brother is Slimo2, so I will be filling out a ban appeal for both of us in order of the times we received our bans.
Slimo2
In Game Name : Slimo2
Reason for Ban : Chat Spam/Caps
Reason for Being Unbanned : Slimo and I are not spammers and we hate them just as much as anyone else would. Slimo said about 5 messages, starting with "Welcome to your dooooom!" as a joke when a new player joined. He was kicked right there without any warning by what I would assume was an spam detector. Obviously, he rejoined, because his being kicked was completely unwarranted. This Join-Rejoin combined with the fact that he was jokingly acting like a noob resulted in him being banned. In the Moderator's defense he was acting immature, but I feel that a ban for saying about 5 things is far too much. In the end, he feels very sorry for whatever grievances he was causing.
Bobzombie2 (Me)
In Game Name : Bobzombie2
Reason for Ban : Disrespecting Staff/Causing Drama
Reason for Being Unbanned : In a stand-alone case, I would certainly deserve maybe a 2-Day Ban, but my actions were absolutely understandable. When I joined the server, I wanted to build a base, raid others, and overall have a good time with Slimo. After lots of frustration and about a week of work I set up camp faraway from spawn under an ocean. So, by now I was very invested in your server and was looking forward to a lot of fun to be had in the future. Introductions aside, now I will detail the reasoning behind my actions.
Obviously, when someone watches their friend being banned permanently for little to no reason, they are going to be quite infuriated. I kept calm at first and asked the Mod who banned my friend politely to unban him, as the ban was clearly undeserved. I receive the highly annoying and painful reply of "Go to the forums and fill out a ban appeal.". In other words, I was basically told to go to go to a strange website, create an account, and say the same exact thing I was saying in the chat. And, to make it all the better, I would have to surrender my email to the entity I was already being frustrated with. A.K.A. I get ridiculous ads spamming my inbox for things I did not want in the first place. So, the rant began. As a result of my frustration with the Mod and all of CraftyMynes' banning systems, I myself was banned.
After this appeal, can it just be said that the incident that occurred with me and Slimo was a general misunderstanding. We both love the server and its community. We want to be a part of it and invest time into the server, overall enriching the experience for others. This mess should have been avoided, but at least we can apologize. I hope this is read soon enough and we can put this behind us.
