In Game Name: Apple_proHave you changed your Minecraft username since being banned? If so, what is your previous name: ApplaprocuclingWhich of ECC's services are you banned on: Main Economy ServerReason of Ban: "running rigged casino"Rule Violated: Clause 2.2 - Attempted Scamming Users cannot attempt to scam other users. If enough evidence is provided and the staff believe a scam was intended, this will result in a temporary ban against the offending user. Attempted scamming includes misleading sales or auctions. For example an auction for 'a melon,sword'.Please explain in your own words what the rule(s) means: Clause 2.2 - Attempted Scamming, means that you should under no circumstances intend to scam, or mislead anyone when selling or buying an item or service.Reason you feel you think you should be un-banned: I hope you can put my 3 year reputation and trust me when I say that I never intended nor knew that the game wasn't wired correctly. I know that the game used to be wired the right way, as we had a jackpot winner just a few weeks back. However at some point the game got changed to a way that it wasn't anymore possible to win. My theory is that someone at some point broke into the game and either changed it on purpose, or did something unintentionally. Sadly, this happened more than 7 days ago, and the logs have been cleared, so no one will know for sure what happened. I was banned for running a casino containing a rigged game, and also running that game. I as the casino owner take full responsibility for the games in my casino, and I should have prevented this from happening in the first place. I would like to apologize to everyone who has played that game and I am currently working with finding the time frames from where this wire change could have happened, so everyone who played the game when it was no longer fair will get a full refund. I would also say thank you to the player who discovered this, and filed the complaint. If anyone staff or not have any questions, please forum pm me, as it potentially involves some sensible information. I don't feel I can express enough how sorry and upset I am about what has happened. I am really sorry. -Apple_Pro
@apple_pro as one of the older and well known members of ECC, we expect better behavior than this. Running a rigged casino is highly immoral and illegal. You seem to realize what you did was wrong, but your behavior surrounding this issue incriminated you more. If you're truly innocent of a situation you find yourself in (in your case, you state that you didn't know the game was rigged), discuss it with the staff member handling the complaint. Instead of doing this, you acted defensibly and immediately changed the redstone rigging, which makes you more suspicious. In the future, please attempt to help the staff member handling the complaint with the issue. To prevent this from happening in the future, I highly suggest that you check all of your casino games regularly. Since this is your first time scamming, I'm going to give you a 24 hour temp ban. Please use this time to read over the rules. If something like this comes up again, the punishment won't be as light. Locked - Temp'd 24 hours
