Accepted Ban Appeal - Smokaine

Member Name Smokaine

Ban appeals are for when we have made a mistake, or there has been a significant change in the circumstances.
These are the only reasons a ban appeal would be accepted. Appeals for "apologies" or just admitting you did wrong will be instantly denied.

In Game Name: Smokaine

Length of Ban: Permanently

Nature of ban(ie, mine craft temp banned or TS3 perm ban) : Perm Ban

Staff who banned you : spalw

Staff who dealt with you : 14Squared

Staff who have warned you previously : 14Squared

Reason for ban on record : Refusing to tell staff about an "issue".

Why do you think you were banned?(what you think the admins thought) : Admins thought I had a money glitch and that I was refusing to tell them about it.

What is your explanation of this reason? I was only joking in the chat about a money glitch and when the staff messaged me I didn't tell them it was a stupid joke and lied to them.

Why should we unban you? I will never joke about a money glitch ever again and if I do find one i will tell the staff immediately.

What measures will you take to prevent this from happening again? By not making stupid jokes in chat I will prevent this from happening again and wasting the staff's time.

How can we trust you again? I've been playing on this server since 2015 without any problems. This is the first time i have made a stupid joke like this in chat and my presence in chat is never vulgar or obscene but sometime I make stupid joke like this and I am very sorry for it.

What else would you like to say to the admins who will review this case? I will never waste staff time like this ever again.

Bump??

At the time of your ban the entire staff team was under exceptional pressure - we were int he midst of a map launch which was incredibly troublesome and resulted in myself and many other members of staff, notable Dakota working (frankly) utterly unacceptable hours to maintain the server for everyone to enjoy.

Your specific case - was during a horrifically troublesome period, in which many staff members, including myself, Dakota and Jrd had all been dealing with incredibly stressfull and relentlessly time consuming tasks to maintain the server during the peak of launch. It is this that I believe you fail to appreciate.

Your specific situtation resulted in me having to completely ruin my entire day, and spend a significant amount of time investigating an issue which, if true, would have caused significant and irreperable damage to the server. Dakota and I take the reputation and state MCDrugs incredibly seriouly and genuinely care about the experience of our players, and wasting my time during such a relentlessly stressfull period was a major factor in determining you ban length.

I would like you to appreciate and acknlowedge that, and explain to me in your own words why this will not occur again. As a staff team, we will discuss your ban and evaluate if it is still appropriate.

Appeal accepted.

You have already been unbanned
