"Hackers shouldn't be allowed to bypass their bans! But in my case, I should be allowed to bypass!"

If you enjoyed and respected the network, you should have been aware of the network's rules. But it seems that you were not aware of the rules, thus you broke a rule, and you were punished for it. You might not agree with the rule, but it was still a rule that you broke. Seems like an open and shut case to me.


We issue bans as a punishment for offences. But if you are suggesting that we allow people to evade their ban, then you are basically allowing us to not punish people for said offences. You're basically allowing a loophole that favors the wealthy with multiple account, and encourages people to break rules and get away with it.

Really, this thread isn't about the legitimacy of bypassing bans: it's about you not thinking your case of Admitting to Hacks justified a Permanent ban. That already has its own separate thread.


Duly noted. I'll warn the Sr. Staff to prepare for you.


This case is the entire reason I made this PSA here:
http://www.mcgamer.net/threads/psa-the-dangers-of-private-party-purchases.122630/

Basically, you engaged in a risky behavior by purchasing a MC account without knowing its ban history. You accepted that risk the moment you purchased that MC account. And because of our "1 account, one owner" policy, that ban will stay no matter who claims to own the account now.

Really, it would have been easier for you to purchase a legitimate new account with a fresh history, than for you to change a network-wide policy in order to let your risky-purchase account play.
Try hard mode activated...

I see that the reason why people are not allowed to evade a ban is because they are not wanted and not worthy of being apart of the community. I, however, do not believe that I particularly did anything bad enough to be forbidden from the network forever.

Honestly, you making this post alone shows how little respect you have for the Staff Team & is hurting your chances at ever getting unbanned or being allowed to ban evade. We can't make special arrangements for one player because what he did to get perma-banned wasn't "bad enough".

It's also against the law to catch fish with your bare hands!

At least I haven't ban evaded. I've simply brought up the topic. I'm sure you don't know what it feels like to absolutely love a server and spend the majority of your free time on that server and to be banned for a reason like this. I think that to at least try and keep my mind off of something else for a month (I was banned on May 14th) and to come back and post a ban dispute that gets upheld and to question whether I'll ever be able to play one of my favourite things in the world ever again, shows a lot of respect that I have for the staff and community.

Contradicting, arguing, & questioning the decisions that the staff team make aren't exactly signs of respect.
