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:

In-Game.​

Reason of Ban:

Inappropriate links/pictures in global chat.​

Rule Violated:

Clause 3 - Inappropriate/Touchy Subjects and Discussions
EcoCityCraft is a server community consisting of many age groups, religious groups, and political backgrounds. As such, there are many touchy subjects that we do not allow in our public channels in order to keep the peace and prevent arguments and flame wars from occurring.
All chat must be kept appropriate and clean at all times. There is to be no discussion of anything deemed inappropriate for a workplace, including, but not limited to, sexuality, excessive violence, alcohol/drugs and inappropriate or dark humor.
This rule extends into subjects about illegal substances or actions, including drugs.
Politics, religion and suicide are common “touchy subjects”, however they are not the only ones. Should a staff member ask you to change a subject they feel is touchy and/or is causing the direction of chat to deviate towards an argument or flame war, you must drop the subject immediately.
Discussing a banned user's ban reason and why they were banned is not allowed, however simply mentioning a banned player's username is allowed.
Accusing other players of breaking any of the Server Rules is not allowed. Use the proper means to address these concerns such as speaking to a staff member or filing a complaint.
These subjects are allowed in VIP chat, except for any harassment or discussion of illegal topics.​

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

To keep chat clean, and to not offend people.​

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

During the day of 1/1/17, I began messing with people in chat, including staff. Me and a couple other friends would switch back and fourth between party chat posting memes, and other "Vulgar" stuff. I admit I was trolling in chat and triggering people, and I would say things like "B*tchez" then say "WC". It may seem like from my actions earlier in the day that I would just be trolling when I posted a picture then freaked out. It was an honest mistake and I will learn from it and use it to better myself and the community, I honestly and can truly say that I will never make an solemn mistake as I have made today. I apologize to anyone who seen the picture and I take full responsibility for my actions. Please try and accept my apology as it is sincere. Thank you,
