Minecraft Username: eiopio

Have you changed your Minecraft username since being banned? If so, what is your previous name?: No

Reason of Ban: Attempted scam of DragRacer2725

Rule violated:
Clause 2 - Scamming

• A general definition of a scam in the context of EcoCityCraft is a transaction in which a user pays for goods or services from another user, and does not receive those goods/services in the agreed upon timeframe.
• Failing to uphold your end of the deal is scamming, and is punishable by a ban. Your continuance on the server may rely on you following through with your end of the deal, or refunding what you scammed, solely at the staff’s discretion.

Clause 2.1 - Renaming items

• Users cannot rename items for the purpose of making them misleading (for example, taking a cookie and renaming it “Diamond Sword”, and then attempting to auction or trade it without specifying that the item is a cookie is against the rules)
• If you are auctioning or trading an item that has been renamed, you MUST specify what the item was before it was renamed.
• All renamed items must follow the language and content rules for chat on the server. If it would not be appropriate in global, it is not an appropriate item name.
  • Making or distributing items that are inappropriately named are both punishable to the same extent. If you find or receive an item that has been inappropriately named, please inform a staff member immediately, so that they may investigate and act appropriately.

Clause 2.2 - Attempted Scamming

• Users cannot attempt to scam other users. If enough evidence is provided and the staff believe a scam was intended, this will result in a temporary ban against the offending user.
  • Attempted scamming includes misleading sales or auctions. For example an auction for 'a melon,sword'.

Clause 2.3 - Player Run Lotteries

• Any player run lottery is disallowed and will be treated as attempted scams or actual scamming depending on the situation.
  • This includes any type of raffle or lottery that requires a buy in.

Please explain in your own words what the rule(s) means: It means you shouldn't scam someone because it makes the player's time on the server unenjoyable.

Reason you feel you think you should be unbanned: I think I should be unbanned because I'm sorry for scamming DragRacer2725. I made a mistake. I shouldn't have scammed him. I'm sorry to DragRacer2725 that I scammed you. I'll make sure it never happens again with any user. I promise I'll never scam anybody again. I'm sorry for scamming DragRacer2725.
