    Reason of Ban:usage of hacked client(s)

    Rule violated:



      • Using any clients, specifically hacked clients, which may allow you to gain unfair advantages as deemed by ECC staff is strictly prohibited.

    Please explain in your own words what the rule(s) means: It is entirely disallowed for players on ECC to use modified MC clients to help themselves.

    Reason you feel you think you should be unbanned: Just a few things before I start. I understand that this is the second time this has happened, and that after something like that happening, I understand whether or not I am unbannned(But I hope I am!). I did what i did due to a few things. First, I was scammed out of a couple hundred thousand ecd due to loan scams. At first I tried to mine some money back, but it took a very long time, which (due to my impatience) caused me to consider hacking "just a little" to regain the money I lost. At first it was going great. With just a little bit of help, I figured I would be able to regain the money I was scammed within a few weeks. Then I began to get greedy. When Bardown4life contacted me about getting a 100k loan, I jumped at the opportunity. Unfortunately, my money was stolen again when he was banned for dual accounting/circumvention of a ban. This sent me into a kind of rage, in which I decided that I would continue to hack until I made back every penny that was stolen from me. After a long reflection on my part, I now realize that by hacking, I was stealing other people's money in a similar way to how mine was stolen. I hope that ECC staff can understand my motives, and maybe show some sympathy. If I am unbanned, I promise(despite the low value of my word after my second ban) that I will never ever hack again.
    Thank you for your time,

    Thank you for wishing to appeal. As you made it very clear, hacking is not appropriate one bit. You have been banned a couple times for this exact reason prior to this appeal. This is your second time appealing this type of ban according to some searches in Ban Appeal Archive. I honestly would have thought that after one successful appeal that it would be learned not to hack again. It's one of the most severe offenses you can commit on EcoCityCraft. As your appeal shows some effort and remorse I have considered to reduce your ban to a temporary ban. Never again in the future do I want to see another appeal from you, especially for this reason, as honestly two times is ridiculous. During your temporary ban, I'm asking that you re-read the rules and make sure they're crystal clear. If you ever have any questions on any rules, you can always ask a Staff member. On to your temporary ban length, I will be banning you for 1 week. See you then.

    Ban reduced to 1 week. Locked.
