I'd like to sincerely appologize for my actions last night. What I did was very wrong and I'm disgusted with myself. I thought only of me and not the people that I would hurt. That's not what ecc is about at all. Ecc is about the community and the friendship. What I did last night was far from that. I know I will have to gain all your guys trust back and I am going to try my hardest. I never want this to happen again. I've probably lost a lot of friends due to this and I regret ever doing this. No one deserves this at all especially not the people on the best Minecraft server. I'm asking you all to forgive me and give me a second chance. I am no longer interested in ranking up. I'd like to donate my 650k I have to those in need when I get back. I will try my hardest these next few weeks/months to gain everyone's trust back. I promise you it will never happen again because xx3 was right in my appeal, I can't live with myself right now. I am so disgusted with my actions... I wanted to come back and make a difference in the community. I wanted to come back and be a friend to all of you and I screwed up. Again I'm sorry and I ask all of you to give me a second chance.
Look, I feel like I should point this out: http://www.ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/apology.112556/ http://www.ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/sorry-for-being-so-salty.118481/ http://www.ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/apology.127755/ This is the third time you have come out, apologized, and said you wouldn't do things again. I mean, it's great that you want to apologize to us, but with this being the third apology, after the most extreme event out of the three, it's honestly becoming harder and harder to believe that you will keep your cool ingame. Though I wasn't ingame last night when you took your actions, the descriptions I have seen have made me feel quite disgusted with said actions. Like, really? Jmichael took a lot of time trying to raise that money, and at the beginning of the project, had no idea that there would be enough money to pay everyone back in full. It was totally fantastic that all that money was raised, but for some of it to suddenly be gone would be incredibly perturbing. To be honest, I'd feel similar to you after performing such actions. On the flip side, I really, really hope you mean what you say this time. If I'm ingame, feel free to talk to me. Just remember that this is the third time, and many other people around you will be much less lenient this time around. I wish you success in regaining trust, and I'm rooting for you. After all, a Scout is trustworthy, isn't he?
I understand and when I come back ima need some Friends as i wont have much if any when i come back. I think I will give my 650k away and then take a long break. I am GOING to try my best this time on my scout honor. I don't want to let anyone down this time
And you applied for Ecoleader, with that stolen cash. I'm quite disgusted of what you done, and don't see any justification of it.
What you did was wrong. But let's focus on the bigger picture. Looking at the logs emon posted, it is clear that the real offender here is a18greek18. He coerced you into doing these acts by lying and deceit. Which is why a18 should be making this thread, not you. The fact that someone trusted his judgement and help but turned his back on them is worthy of all hate on ecc. Don't go flaming him, but let's be honest, you would not have done this without his help. Don't lose sight of the truth.
I agree to every word in this post, which explains everything involved with you at this point @bmanvman.
Guys, it is all my fault and bman had no idea. If anything blame it all on me. Continue hating me, as bman had nothing to do with it. I'm used to it, so flame me. Not him. He doesn't deserve it.
I don't want to join the discussion here, except to reassure everyone who donated that staff were on this so quickly and so forcefully last night. @ClarinetPhoenix recovered the first of the two while I was still on last night, and @Dewsy92 returned the other when I logged on this evening. Fortunately, there was a little extra and @Ladyvamptress agreed to forego her reimbursement to make sure the other players were still covered. Thanks to staff, though, that won't be necessary. I just want everyone to know that not a cent of the donated money was lost, and that is entirely due to the efforts of staff, and not my (clearly inept) efforts to find a secure way to pass the money over. Staff deserve a huge amount of credit for solving this, and I for one am very grateful I do hope to see @a18greek18 and @bmanvman both back on the server in the future.
I agree with most of the things you say here, but I had no idea it was against the rules. I agree it was the wrong thing to do, but I truly thought it was legal. Next time you post something like this, actually speak with the users involved. Your third person point of view does not get to see all of the information. I don't appreciate your comments. Drop it and move on.
I was testing ways that someone could get the money (as jmichael asked me to do) and I got the money. I paid it back to Clar shortly after. It was MY choice to pay it back. Next time ask for this information before you post. Thanks.
"You didn't tell Clarinet anything. It wasn't until Clarinet had confronted you that you had explained what took place and had sent her the money. " - emongo
@jmichael214 I would donate money to u for all of this but I owe someone my ecoleader town claim so I gotta get ecoleader. I will donate money to u after that though I'm sorry all this happened.
There's no need for that. The Willclo Fund money was recovered from both of you, and paid out to victims. So you're even with me, money-wise. We even forgot one victim in all the chaos and there was a little bit ($77,447) left over for him. So as far as I'm concerned, the matter is closed. You won't find me posting crap on your ban appeals. Maybe, if you want to make amends for this after this is over, track down @Exilenela and find out how much he lost, total. I only had $77,447 left for him, and I know he lost more than that.
