[Ban Appeal] Jonathug_

In Game Name:

Jonathug_​

Have you changed your Minecraft username since being banned? If so, what is your previous name:

No​

Which of ECC's services are you banned on:

Main Server​

Reason of Ban:

AFK autofishing​

Rule Violated:

Section 6. Unfair play, Clause 4. Automation​

Please explain in your own words what the rule(s) means:

I broke a very important rule, something that is in place to keep the economy alive. It's important to not use hacked clients as it gives the player an unfair advantage over others. It's a cheat way to play and can ruin the economy by printing money with little to no effort.​

Reason you feel you think you should be un-banned:

I didn't appeal for my ban right away because I decided to discipline myself and step away from the computer for a few days. I am back now with a clear mind and have things together again. I want to start by saying I am deeply sorry for this. I am considered an adult and for me to stoop so low and to use a hack client on Minecraft to get an edge is very immature and rude of me. I have played this server for years and have loved my time here. I adore the community and the staff. I feel like such a fool for doing it. I am going through a transition in my life that's making me a bit stressed out, I play video games because , personally it helps me relax. My life has been sort of scrambled lately and for some reason I was taking it out on ECC. It felt like something that I could control, something that I had power over. I was losing to sportsbook a lot and a lot too lotto and it was very upsetting when I had spent days grinding only to lose it all. So I resorted to autofishing to replace my losses. I don't believe my actions are justified by any means. It's a very serious issue that doesn't get taken lightly. I feel I should be unbanned because I miss being apart of a community that makes me feel welcome. A place I can go to sort of "escape" for just a moment. I can't speak for everyone but I feel like some people enjoyed my company on ECC and I would hate to say goodbye to them like this. I wish to come back to ECC and continue my progress towards creating a nation for new players to come to for guidance. I will not let myself do something so low ever again. If my appeal is not accepted, I do understand and am deeply sorry again. I will accept any form of punishment, if that be a permanent ban, then farewell to all of those I have spent time with here on ECC.
I have built some wonderful friendships lasting years here. Good luck to you all.
I do not mean to disrespect the server, staff or owner by any means. I am old enough to understand right and wrong and it's very rude.

Thank you for taking the time to review my appeal.

Best regards,
