Minecraft Username: cyanmissioner Have you changed your Minecraft username since being banned? If so, what is your previous name?: no i haven't Which of ECC's services are you banned on? : [Main server] Reason of Ban: awful language, disrespecting staff, general troll Rule violated: Clause 2 - Vulgarity Inappropriate and vulgar language is not allowed. This includes anything put on signs, said in chat, written in books, renamed to on items (see Section 3 Clause 2.1), spelt out in blocks (see Section 2, Clause 2.1), or any other way of communicating. Occasional mild to moderate vulgarities that are not directed at anyone (such as "slip-ups" or saying them in the incorrect chat by accident), self-censorship of a swear word or abbreviations that may imply a swear word (eg. WTF?) are allowed unless it is directed at another user. Repeated or excessive swearing, and especially vulgar language directed at anyone, is not tolerated under any circumstance. Racist language or prejudicial language of any sort falls under the vulgarity rule, and is considered a very serious offence, punishment of which may not warrant a warning before being given a ban, Clause 3 - Harassment Harassment constitutes as any form of action (chat or game play wise) that makes another player feel threatened or otherwise ruins their game play. Griefing in the wild does not constitute harassment. Harassment in the wild is strictly chat/command based. This includes, but is not limited to; blackmail, bullying or any other form of harassment that occurs through our chat system. Attempting to kill other players in any non-PvP zone also constitutes as harassment, and succeeding in killing other players in non-PvP areas is a very severe offence that will result in a ban. Harassment is absolutely inexcusable on EcoCityCraft. If you are engaging in this behavior expect to be removed from the server with little to no warning. Disrespecting staff falls under this rule - They are players too. Clause 2 - Trolling Trolling is not allowed on the server, especially any trolling that is directed towards another user. This includes, but is not limited to: Flame baiting Harassment (See Section 2 Clause 3.) Cyber-bullying Attempts to start any form of chaos and discord within the server. Please explain in your own words what the rule(s) means: No trolling means no bullying, arguing and trying to start an argument without a purpose. No harassment means making a player feel uncomfortable or offended is not allowed. No vulgarity means using foul language in server chat is not permitted. Reason you feel you think you should be unbanned: I am very sorry for my actions and take full reponsibility for it. I apologize to all the people i offended and promise to not do it again. Although I was feeling in a trolly mood, i understand that it still isnt a reason to break the rules. I will greatly appreciate a second chance because I miss the server and want to come back.
Hi cyan, I'm glad to see you've appealed. Seeing as it's been quite some time since you've been on the server, and since you have had a good amount of time to think about your actions I will be reducing your ban to a temp. Please now know that this type of behavior is not tolerated at all here on ECC and will always be taken seriously. I truly hope you take this as a learning opportunity, and you take this very seriously. Please do not let me see this happen again. Finally during the extent of your temp, I'd like you to review the server rules which can be found here. Furthermore, you can specially review the rules in which you broke. I will be issuing you a 3 hour temp for your vulgarity, and a 4 hour temp for your trolling and staff disrespect. Other than all that, I look forward to seeing you in game soon. Welcome back to ECC. Locked -- User issued 7 hour temp Have any questions regarding how I handled this appeal? Feel free to forum message me for discussion.
