Slim_ Posted July 16 Report Share Posted July 16 Yesterday, I had gotten killed by the wither and all my netherite gear blown up. While it was easy to get back to maxed diamond, I wanted netherite again. I had the idea of using the water clip (where you can see through waters overlay by having your camera at the right angle) with lava instead. I thought this would be ingenious, since nobody goes swimming through lava for netherite, giving me better chances of finding some, along with it not being exposed to air. Apparently, this is considered Xray, which I was completely unaware of. Now I would understand banning if I was using a mod or something to remove lava overlay, but I wasn't doing that. I feel that it is unfair that I not only get banned for a week, but a complete reset. Now mind you, I have 20ish hours of resources in my ender chest, along with a ton of super rare items from ancient cities and such, that may only be a couple copies on the server. Not only this, but this rev I have become part of Avalon, which I have built several things for and gave tons of items to, that are just going to be gone (I also built the south road). I feel like this ban is unjust and if what I was doing was harmful I would like to apologize. Client I was using: Labymod (Basically a quality of life client similar to Lunar Client or Badlion, mostly meant for PvP, but has a bunch of nice features similar to things like MultiMC) Screenshots of what I was doing: https://laby.net/post/9fb9bafe https://laby.net/post/0500934a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TemporarilyAlive Posted July 16 Report Share Posted July 16 Hello, Your nether mining wasn't what initially caught our attention; it was the large number of diamonds in the overworld you had mined. A keen eyed moderator did a quick check, as they would for any suspicously large number of edits, and raised it to the admins attention. Cheezy and I then found multiple examples of obvious xray, which you can see on the screenshots in this link https://imgur.com/a/iDcw8u0 While investigating this, we noticed you were online and teleported to you just as you entered the nether. Knowing what you were about to do we watched as you drank fire protect potions, jumped in the lava, and swam entirely under the surface straight to 4 netherite blocks. See evidence of this on the screenshots on this link https://imgur.com/a/mQE3I6g You were not half on the surface and half under the lava for the majority of your mining session, and even if you were, you should not have been able to see under the lava. See the image in this link for what you should be able to see when doing what you showed in your screenshot https://imgur.com/a/f5KBFcU I would also like to add that you had recieved a note after being warned about using exploits to traverse spawn. While this had no bearing on the ban descision, i feel that it is worth mentioning here. Using xray, exploits, or mods to gain an unfair advantage over other players is not allowed, and your screenshots clearly show your client has a function to disable fog to see under lava. The ban was not unjust, it was entirely deserved. The punishment is a 1 week ban, and all your edits have been rolled back, as per our xray policy. Please reply here 1 week from now confirming that you have read our rules to be unbanned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slim_ Posted July 16 Author Report Share Posted July 16 The diamond mining was using pretty much the same strat as the netherite mining, I just found an underwater cave. I understand the ban, and most of the rollback too. Is it possible any rollbacks surrounding the Avalon claim go undone? They already kicked me out, and I doubt they will let me back in. I just don't want my idiocy to affect their town. Thank you for helping me gain an understanding of my wrongdoing, have a good day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TemporarilyAlive Posted July 16 Report Share Posted July 16 I dont see how placing the camera half below the waterline would help to see the diamonds in any of the overworld screenshots i shared. Other players have already donated materials to avalon to rebuild the damage done by the rollback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
