Closing because player has been unbanned.

Great! ive unbanned you, welcome back! 🙂

Hello Xetrain i read it and took my time to read it carefully. Thank you

Hello KiingJ I will be happy to unban you once you confirm you have re-read the rules here: https://nerd.nu/rules/#pve Thanks, XeTrain

i haven't got unbanned yet

Hello Mumberthrax, It is good that you have taken the time to look inward and think about your actions in the past. Unfortunately, we have not changed our stance on your ban. Your comments and actions at the time were too egregious for us to be comfortable allowing you back. We wish you well, The Head Admins, defiex, pez252, & Fazaden.

Hello Mumberthrax, Thank you for your patience. We will respond to your post in the next day or so, once we have a moment to discuss the situation between the head admins. -defiex

Bump

This was not within Aethelstans claim, and was reported by another player. As I said, you will be unbanned on the 9th of June. Thanks

Xetrain that may be a coincidence because my claim is in Aethelstan2's claim which he allowed me to build in but thank you for cooperating

Cherry wood in question:

Hello KiingJ You were banned on the 2nd of June 2024 for continued grief, your note history implies you have been warned multiple times for similar offenses. In this case, you were banned for taking down a players build made of cherry wood. any size build that is created is protected under our No Grief rule, regardless of if it looks abandoned Because of this, you will be unbanned on the 9th of June 2024. Which is 1 week from today Thanks, XeTrain.

My account has been banned of griefing on PVE even though the new rev has just started

Hi. I'd like to appeal my ban. I was on the nerd.nu discord server in the politics channel often. I became frustrated at the way i was treated by users there in ways i perceived to be in violation of the rules. I became frustrated by the treatment i received from cheezychicken in response to my complaints. I became frustrated with some of the other staff who accused me of being the source of the conflict rather than those who were mistreating me. This happened in parallel with other events where the head admins engaged in what i perceived at the time to be misconduct on the PvE server. Fazaden in particular would engage with me on the politics channel and appeared to have the same inclination as I did at the time to get hot-headed on matters that are important to him. There's much more that went on to all of this, a lot of issues that really bothered me, but which don't really need to be brought up here. Suffice to say though, at the time I felt attacked on all sides by several users and by the staff who i believed had a responsibility to maintain order and justice, and that led to a lot of resentment and frustration. The fact that this intersected with the emotions of real-world political issues sent me to what I'd classify as peak amygdala hyperstimulation. I lost my patience and began treating the channel with flippancy commensurate with the level of care i perceived others to be putting forth. I cracked what seemed to me clever jokes in response to insults and attacks. In retrospect, there was no way that any of that would be productive. The people there were never going to accept any kind of argument against them, and losing my temper in response to trolling and trolling them back was never going to produce ideal results. In particular, lashing out at the admins who were themselves ideologically driven (as I was) and who mostly just would have preferred for the whole thing to go away was an error on my part. At one point I stated truthfully my belief in criminal prosecution leading to the death penalty for people who perform abortions. I still do not believe this violated nerd.nu's rules. I also made a statement which I fully intended as a joke, which I thought was obviously ridiculous enough to be understood as satirical - and which at the time I also thought cleverly referenced several topics that had arisen over the course of the conversation in a funny way, but because the admins saw me as the central figure in all of their problems, this satirical comment could be plausibly argued to have been made with serious intent. The context didn't matter, and stripping away that context was a strategy used to argue for the denial of my previous appeal. I understand why that was done. To make it extremely clear: my argument at the time was that "KILLING IS BAD". From my perspective, abortion is killing. ergo, i don't want people killed. At the same time, I was REPEATEDLY in support of the rule of law and criminal justice. These are very very basic concepts for functioning civilization that nobody should have issue with. To the best of my recollection, it was Fazaden who pressed me to describe what I would want done to people who perform abortions under a hypothetical scenario where the rule of law has dissolved and anarchy and chaos have taken over my country. So I said, iirc, that in that scenario such people should be executed - in much the same way that murderers are given the death penalty. (FWIW, my stance on the death penalty today is more reserved than even then. I tend to believe in repentance and forgiveness.) My "joke" was suggesting in that scenario a 'genocide' of people who support and perform abortions. Obviously it is not a genocide, because people of various races and ethnic backgrounds share in that activity. Obviously extrajudicial killing people who merely give support to murderers is a violation of the concept of law and order, the rule of law, and a violation of the belief that "KILLING IS BAD". I hope this is making some sense. I'm not sure how better to explicate this. My intention right now is not to argue against abortion or turn this appeal into a political debate, to argue the nuances of law and 'what is a human' or any of that stuff, because that's not what this is about. I share what I have shared because it is what happened, and I was instructed at nerd.nu/appeal to do so. My stance is that the head admins and deaygo made considerable mistakes in their handling my previous appeals - but they are understandable mistakes. I don't care that they did, it doesn't bother me anymore. Nobody cares. I have no interest in going on the politics channel at all. I have no interest in talking about political issues with people who already have their opinions cooked. Getting into heated arguments about politics is fruitless at best, and disruptive and harmful at worst. I simply wish to have the ban reversed at this time. Also, for what it is worth, I'm much calmer these days. I am sorry I caused trouble for you admins, for not conducting myself at a higher standard even when I felt mistreated.

I am sorry for griefing

Good afternoon- You were banned after another staff member and I witnessed you and another player actively building on and griefing other player’s builds. We tried to reach out to you through direct message in game to ask you to stop and to read the rules and we were not answered. After several attempts at communicating, you were banned for failing to follow the rules on PVE. Please see the rules at nerd.nu/rules.

I dont know what it is

Hello Citlalin, If that is your decision, then all right. Have a great day, -defiex

This could be literally anything. Too vague. Honestly, if we're really going this far then I'm not even going to bother to try.

Good morning Citlalin, Thank you for posting after the 18th. I have unbanned you since you have said you have re-read the rules. Please note that due to your history, if there is any further issues -minor or major- you will be permanently banned. This is your last chance to play nicely with our community. You have been spoken to in the past on a myriad of topics. If you are unsure about any of these issues, please reach out to a head admin via this forum. (defiex, fazaden, pez252) -defiex

Hello, Harassment of users or staff is definitely not allowed in our community. Please consider how your actions and words may effect others in the future. You have been unbanned.

Forgive me, I submitted this a almost week and a half ago. Is there anything else I need to do before I am able to be unbanned?

Hello fox551175, You were banned for griefing on creative. Due to it being a relatively minor offense, you have since been unbanned. Just make sure to reread the rules at spawn once you join. Welcome back to nerd.nu 🙂 Sincerely, Fluffhead555

I am sorry for griefing. I wont do that again. I will follow rules.
