skill issue

IGN: ThePhoenix
Reason for unban: Staff has gone soft on crime

@ThePhoenix is a player with a colorful past on the server, causing many disruptions and upsets throughout his time on CraftyMynes. He is guilty of the following:

• Griefing the server parkour by spawning a nether portal inside it
• Making sexist remarks in the Discord server (This elevated his ban status to permanent)
• Disrespecting staff's decisions when it comes to rule enforcement
• Bullying players
• Using incredibly racist language in his public Discord server
• Cheating by use of an unapproved mod

Not only do I find his behavior disgusting and reprehensible, but I find it utterly jarring that staff could overlook such transgressions and allow him onto the server. There was a time where even if you accidentally logged on using a banned mod, you were permabanned without exception. Now, times have changed, and there have been unbans based on players actually logging in with mods accidentally because of the decision on this guy. However, ThePhoenix admitted to using a mod despite it being a banned mod. Now, I've been a player on CM for a very long time, and to me this seems like a very clear cut case where the appeal should be denied, but for whatever reason, wasn't.

At least in Birdfrock's case, the decision was based on intent rather than outcome, and to be fair to staff, when the decision was made they retroactively applied the same ruling to other similar cases (and to play my own Devil's advocate, didn't apply it in others ).

I also find it incredibly interesting that ThePhoenix was unbanned after this debacle without any transparency for the players, in which the standard is that ban appeals are publicly viewable on the forums for accountability purposes. Then, following the resignation of certain administrative members, ThePhoenix was allowed back into the Discord despite being permanently banned. And now, we have the current situation.

This now begs the question, what precedent will be set by unbanning ThePhoenix?
Will NE0GE0 be unbanned as well?
Will other cheaters be unbanned as well?
If they won't be unbanned, why not?
Is ThePhoenix's case different from the others? If so, how?
Are the staff actually just playing favorites when it comes to unbans?
Will the rules be applied fairly and equally to all players on CraftyMynes?

I formally call for the re-banning of ThePhoenix, or for the staff that voted in favor of overturning his ban to publicly apologize to the entirety of the server, and unban other cheaters who also promised to "never do it again."
Thank you.

@CeruleanHusky Trying to remain somewhat positive here lol

cope

cm is doomed tbh

checking in to see if there's an update on these

bumping to see if there is any update on these so far

@ImKopi Which is totally fine, but I think there should be some kind of disclaimer of "Due to the fact you joined after 2015, you will not be permitted to join any teams nor should expect any help from players". I think that's a fair warning for new players.

wah wah wah whine whine whine
