Please don't Lock / Act upon this Ban Appeal unless you have my / Andrew's / Game Admins permission otherwise.

 

im not sure if i am aloud to comment on this but its worth the risk ... i don't know killr but he obviously is sorry and obviously spent lots of time filling in this ban appeal in and i sincerely hope you mods/admins will have mercy .. everyone deserves a second chance
good luck killr

 

I agree, but he still must pay back his debts to those he treated unfairly.

 

I am curious how he is going to do this while being banned?

 

He scammed for donations. If he donates, he'll be unbanned.

At least that is my understanding of this atm.

 

not sure if i can post here but why cant he earn money then pay the donations off with in game money?

 

the new punishment for major donation scams seems to be you have to donate for them since the money is confiscated. correct me if I am wrong please

 

It's a major rule violation and he scammed more than a few people for a total of a few hundred thousand ECO$.

If we let him back on, we have to have Andrew watch his trades, we have to have mods watch him in game, we have to have mods monitor everyone to make sure everyone is repaid. If we let him on, he gets to play, have fun, while those he scammed wait around for their donation/money. Money that he might send off to his brother, or a 2nd account, or throw away in the lotto. If I was one of the people he scammed and I saw him running around in game having a blast while I was still out my donation and my money, I would be pissed.

Mod's just don't have time for all this.. AND our normal duties for just one person. Especially someone who willingly broke such a major game rule.

The fact that we are even willing to entertain the idea of unbanning him is more consideration than he would have gotten in the past.

This is all my take on this again.

Lets attempt to collect a consensus from the people he scammed. If they are mostly in favor of unbanning him and letting him work toward returning the money via EcoDollars, then I don't see the harm in unbanning him.

People seem to like killr, he appears to be a friendly dedicated member of our community. I would like to argue the postion that maybe the loss of killrdarkness is greater than the loss of the money he scammed. If we unban him and he cooperates, then we will have gained wealth. However, if we continue to ban him, then we will gain nothing.

Something will always be greater than nothing.

 

lol okay killr Goodluck and good plan

 

This is not an open discussion. Donation scamming is a serious offense. Regardless of the circumstances surrounding killrdarknes' actions, he is responsible for his own account and the penalty for donation scamming remains unchanged.

Until he makes the donations promised, he will remain banned. In the real world being a nice guy and apologizing simply isn't enough for serious crimes, nor is it enough on ECC for what is most probably the worst rule violation we have--hundreds of thousands of dollars was scammed from our users, and until that is made right there is no point to discussing this.

Once again, this is not an open discussion: killrdarknes will not be unbanned until he makes the donations promised.

 

I concede; however if we compare to real world exchange the majority of our transactions happen such that there cannot be centralized enforcement and yet me manage to cooperate. You do not need penalty, at least not centralized penalty, for transactions to be cooperative. Think about restaurant service, it is within the realm of legality for a restaurant to serve nasty food, given it is at least safe, and advertise to the contrary. Would this not be an example of a real life unenforceable scam, and if so why does it rarely happen?

The most efficient way to prevent uncooperative behavior is to make it unenforceable. This can be known apriori if you simply open your mind to out of the box thinking.

 

I should really try to appeal this rule... it is very counter-productive.

 

Actually the restaurant example is not very strong due to the socially distant exchange model, but lets put that beside for now.

 

If his brother has done it once, he could do it again. Removing his standing ban would not only expose him to the rest of the community and put its player's at risk, it also would open the door for him or his brother(so he says) to wreak further havoc on the server.

The only thing you should open is the door, and show killr out.

 

The thing is though... that will never happen nor could it ever happen. You position may seem logical at first but if you actually analyze how society works you are drawn to a contrary conclusion. People who break rules are ostracized and mostly never awarded formal penalty. Ostracism breaks down with larger communities, but ECC is not nearly large enough.
