    I once tried to swim across a lava lake with enchanted armor and tools. Ran out of potions and typed /spawn. When I spawned I was sooo relieved only to see my last 4 hearts slowly dissapear and die. Came back and everything was gone.

    Attempted to pvp sit right when mcmmo was turned back on and I didn't know. When the first sharp 4 sword disappeared I thought I threw it. After he took the second I realized he had both. It was then that I realized sit's unarmed was the reason.

    When I was a builder I built an underground farm that took me an entire day. Came back the next day and it was gone. Lost 1200 seeds, 5 stacks of glowstone, and well....everything I had.

    Decided to use an eff 5 pick to build a blaze spawner trap. And well....you know the rest.

    Once tped to a new builder to help with a farm and do water placement for free only to fall to my death and lose everything in a predug trap in the wild. That was when I was intruduced to the great brycey365.

    Most recently.... I was tricked into thinking a res was doing free e-repairs. I tped him and gave him several high enchanted items including a set of prot 4 armor. He decided he would keep it and sold it for 100k. I raged ofcourse and gave over 1k diamonds in snipe. It actually did make me feel better! :) As for the individual in question, he will soon realize the mistake made... Muhahahaha! :twisted:

    Those are just a few that came to mind. There are many more :d!

    Trusted a builder with a reputation of griefing (Which i knew about) Not to grief my town. Well, you get teh picture on what happened next

    Thought I could start a elite clan liek the brotherhood, but not having any mcmmo...

    Trusting limsy that he actually had a blaze spawner he would let me use, but instead killed me.

    Attempting to snipe 2 ticks in a lotto that nradke put 100 ticks in.

    Putting diamonds in a chest right outside of spawn without LWCing it.

    Thinking the void couldn't kill me if i brought full diamond enchanted armor.

    Buying nether

    Making my town in the middle of a ice mountain biome

    Riding a boat and dying to the void :/

    AFKing near a build gate with a whole bunch of good stuff (Luckily a nice person recovered most of the valuables)

    Accidentally clicking a donation sign and losing 1k when I had 15k and a res app in

    Playing the lotto

    Trusting a builder and his fail deal of 2k for diamond blocks

    Lost another 2k when someone stole my diamonds as a builder (for the last three events I was still a builder and 5k was a lot to me)

    Riding a boat and falling into the void when it hit land

    Trusted someone giving away free e-repairs and ran off with my stuff

    As a builder I dug straight down and fell in lava

    Did a pvp match while wearing full iron against someone wearing full diamond

    playing lotto

    having a house with some of the floor made from diamond blocks, and having it all greifed from me, and the damage was "to small" so no roll back.

    lending a friend 1k for a house, later find out he never goes on ECC.

    giving another friend a tone of good stuff cuz they where new. then they got perm ban.

    living in Las Vegas. (no offense) (i was greifed a LOT) (like 8 diamond blocks)

    making friends with some one that gets band for advertising. (my best friend Kilena) i only knew her on ECC.

    telling people i am Canadian. (i am, but some people hate me cuz of that, and wen i said "happy canada day" then some ppl said whats that? oh, is that a day where every one walks around saying Eh?...cof cof Lee...cof cof Death...)

    pvping

    Similar thing for me. Built a 10 story 50x50 pumpkin farm, then kicked from town for no reason. The mayor now uses the farm himself.
