Forgot to post here. You have been unbanned. Closing appeal.

You have been unbanned. Remember to follow the rules and respect those playing with you. Appeal has been closed.

Hello Lilah, I would like to clarify that I didn't accuse you of not trying to write a proper appeal, I was just specifying that I needed a proper one. Additionally, please don't take this as a reason to not interact with the community at all. You're a valued member of it, and going radio silent won't do any good for anybody. Thank you for the proper appeal. Your unban date remains 11:30pm EST on Friday, October 4th. Reply to this thread if you have any questions. Thank you, PPGOME

Hello Lilah, Please take Ocelot's message above as an example for a response I expect from this. Appeals are for admitting fault or contesting punishments you deem unfair, but you've done neither. I'll share what I have as evidence for this ban below and from there you can decide your course of action. You were banned for your part in a chat disruption that occurred regarding homophobia. From this disruption, we found that you both attempted a ban bait and also issued threats to those you were attempting to bait. Let it be known that there is absolutely nothing wrong with discussion in chat about LGBTQ+ topics. As the other users are not part of this ban, I have censored their names. They've already been dealt with. Below is you and another player initiating a ban bait on a player who knowingly holds beliefs that holds beliefs different to that of yours: 2024-09-26 18:33:44 [INFO] [STDOUT] [Lilah427 -> █████████████] i found out that █████████ is homophobic. and has said some heinously homophobic shit. 2024-09-26 18:33:50 [INFO] [STDOUT] [█████████████ -> Lilah427] what 2024-09-26 18:33:55 [INFO] [STDOUT] [█████████████ -> Lilah427] ok gotta gay it up then 2024-09-26 18:34:09 [INFO] [STDOUT] [█████████████ -> Lilah427] let's be soooooo gay 2024-09-26 18:34:19 [INFO] [STDOUT] [Lilah427 -> █████████████] oh yeah You proceed to, out of nowhere, say this during your discussion in chat about an event in your life that related to LGBTQ+: 2024-09-26 18:37:22 [INFO] <Lilah427> homophobic people don't deserve to be alive. 2024-09-26 18:37:29 [INFO] <Lilah427> in my opinion Another player chimed in with a message they were also banned for, and you responded with these messages: 2024-09-26 18:43:28 [INFO] <Lilah427> you're a waste of space █████████ 2024-09-26 18:44:33 [INFO] <Lilah427> choke Following the event, when you knew we were dealing with the involved players, you went ahead and placed this sign down in the town you're a member of: And today, after a modreq made by a player, we have also found that you killed multiple pets using lava buckets: And all of the following logs were also near more pets: You've been a member of Nerd for a long time now. I feel that you would know better than to do any of this. Do better. Your ban length has been set to 3 days from the time of banning. You will be unbanned at 11:30pm EST on Friday, October 4th. You will only be unbanned if you are able to confirm you have read the rules and give a real appeal below this message. Your next ban will be even longer if you continue acting this way. Reply to this thread if you have any questions. Thank you, PPGOME

Hello GAMEMASTERop, You were banned due to multiple repeat violations of our server's rules, as you said above; homophobia, grief, and racism. The homophobia was you in chat today during a discussion on same-sex relationships. Nothing in the logs seems to imply you were just discussing your faith in, well, good faith. There's a distinct difference between discussing your faith versus trying to force it down people's throats. Gay people don't harm you in any way, so what's wrong with them simply existing? You essentially equate homosexuality to murder in this chat message from today: 2024-09-26 18:42:11 [INFO] <GAMEMASTERop> steal, lie, murder, gay, bias, all forms of sin The racism occurred immediately after a player, who was Chinese, joined the server and was having some difficulties communicating. 2024-09-17 01:59:05 [INFO] <ddyx6> i am china 2024-09-17 01:59:10 [INFO] <GAMEMASTERop> ahhhh 2024-09-17 01:59:39 [INFO] <GAMEMASTERop> theyre eating the cats and dogs To which you tried to defend it with... 2024-09-17 02:01:27 [INFO] [STDOUT] [GAMEMASTERop -> PPGOME] why it wasnt racist it was a trump quote I don't even understand your attempt at a defense there as the original comment from Donald Trump was inherently racist. You knowingly used that comment in that context and proceeded to get all angry in chat about how the staff team is full of fascists after the fact. You agreed to our rules when you started playing on the server, and rules clearly state that this stuff is against the rules and will be moderated. Lastly, your grief. You've already been given 2 notes for grief and more was found just before and also after your ban. Below is an image of scaffolding you broke that was the access to one of the server's gold and froglight farms: (Small snip-it of the logs) There was also the goat in Solace that you had killed a couple of weeks prior, along with the variety of other minor grief done in this area like blocking off water drops that ended up killing players and some general cosmetic grief. The other grief mentioned by your notes weren't very specific as to what was actually done, but this grief goes back at least a month, has been occurring on a regular basis, and you still haven't stopped despite numerous warnings. As for your ban, you will remain banned for 1 week. This means that I will unban you at 6:00pm EDT on Thursday, October 3rd. Before you're unbanned, you will need to read the rules at https://nerd.nu/rules/ and reply to this thread stating that you have done so once you actually have. Future bans will increase in length if you don't follow these rules, so please make sure that you understand them all. If you have any questions pertaining to this ban, don't hesitate to reply to this thread. Thank you, PPGOME

Hello, I'm appealing my ban due to decisions I made that I now look down upon. I decided to enter college and I am very sorry. The only proof I have for me being sorry at this time is, while not 100%, a 90% or so final grade in one of my courses. Maybe we can be a bit lenient on the terms agreed upon last night. Thank you, PPGOME

Congrats!

It only takes so many players who want to keep phantoms away and then the server becomes laggy as hell with hundreds of cats defending against phantoms.

Money!

Spawn I believe that spawn was, while very pretty, not laid out well for new players. I saw many leave due to their inability to locate the exits of spawn (Even I took a while on day one) I would like to see a simpler layout so that players are not confused, and maybe, like this rev, try to keep spawn not laggy, like spawns before have been. (Normally they got laggier as the rev progressed) Overworld I enjoyed the vanilla map! It was fun to see the base game again, which I haven't seen for ages. Nether and End Both the nether and end were amazing. I loved the end the most, though. It was really cool to be able to traverse the entire end without the need of bridging, pearling or flying over the big islands. I loved the different concrete in both realms, as well! I absolutely loved the ores in the end. Events I found the events to be cool but very repetitive. The ones I was there for were basically the same thing, grind, trade and continue grinding. The custom mobs were cool to trap and keep after the event, though! Thank you for a very fun rev 🙂

Hytale is a game that should be coming out sometime this year. It's a sandbox and exploration game, like Minecraft. I was just wondering, would the server be willing to expand to another game?

We have some great builders and other maps online which could be for servers. Maybe we could hold a thing on C to build a map and it could be one of the adventure maps? Command blocks and such can reset a section of a map quite easily. The only issue with this, however, would be admins having to discuss with every player who participates and do commands for every single command block.
