Have you changed your Minecraft username since being banned? If so, what is your previous name:

No​

Which of ECC's services are you banned on:

Minecraft​

Reason of Ban:

Use of modified client​

Rule Violated:

Clause 1 - Hacking and Hacked Clients
Fly, speed, air build, teleport hacking, or any other types of hacks, are not tolerated. This includes x-ray hacking and x-ray texture packs. Using any unfair means (including glitches, bugs, and exploits) to get into server buildings is also not allowed and is unfair to other users.
Using any clients, specifically hacked clients, which may allow you to gain unfair advantages as deemed by ECC staff is strictly prohibited.
Users caught using any client deemed to be a "hacked client", as defined by and at the discretion of the staff, will be banned. There is no excuse for using a hacked client on EcoCityCraft whatsoever.
Discussion of hacked clients is not allowed - we do not allow them, and therefore we do not discuss them.​

Please explain in your own words what the rule(s) means:

Hacking of any kind is not tolerated on the server.​

Reason you feel you think you should be un-banned:

Well, I wasn't hacking. I don't use hacked clients now, nor have I ever. I had just won an event hosted by Andrew and won a $30 shop credit for the ECC shop. I believe the provider of the evidence was upset that I won the event, and took a video of me celebrating at the end as a form of pseudo evidence that I was hacking. I have dedicated a lot of time to this community since I joined and would have no reason to risk the hours upon hours of time I have put into it.
The evidence provided to me by the banning staff member does not whatsoever show sufficiently beyond shadow of a doubt that I was hacking. All it shows is me moving my mouse side to side and punching in celebration because a few friends were there waiting for me incase I won. The video will be linked below

Let's also notice the fact that shortly into the video, someone comes in immediately punching the air around the 8 second mark. Also, there is a considerable time delay from when I appear to when I start punching. If I was hacking, it would have been immediate upon me being in range to hit someone.
I'll reiterate, this video does not at all represent me using a hacked client or any hacks in general being used. We can't just ban everyone who spam punches and shakes their mouse. That would be ridiculous, I have even seen staff members emulate the same motions.​

 

Oh god where do I start. Your evidence is false, because it's simply not evidence. Yes, I was celebrating by punching rapidly and moving my mouse. I do it frequently, not just in Minecraft, it's just a thing I do. Yes, my face was turning to the same spot back and forth, but I can't rapidly adjust the amount of space I have to move my mouse.

I used the example of someone coming in and punching as such. That guy is clearly not hacking, correct? So why am I clearly hacking if he isn't?

I'm sorry that I beat you, but I did. It's as simple as that, and I did it fairly. There's always going to be competition in life and you should get used to losing once in a while as it does happen.

Also, as pretty and organized as your response it, it doesn't hide the fact that half of your responses were basically just copy and pasted sentences.

 

Well, minecraft animations do have limits afterall, I was clicking rather fast so thats either just that I was tapping in some accidental rythym, or that the animations didn't keep up with it.
Also, I'd love to know who you are to decide what in MY appeal is relevant and what is not.
Furthermore, if the video is slowed down to 25% speed. I am clearly turning my head. If I was using Kill-Aura as you stated would it not instantly jerk my head like a Call of Duty aimbot?
