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:

ECC's main server​

Reason of Ban:

I was using an auto-fishing mod.​

Rule Violated:

Clause 4 - Automation
The use of any means to earn money without doing any work is prohibited.
This includes, but is not limited to, macromod scripts, autofisher mods, fully automated farms, and physical means to hold a button down while away from your computer.
Usage of automated means is allowed for MCMMO grinding, providing you are not generating money and are not afk (e.g. an autoclicker to train the swords skill on a player is allowed, an autoclicker to train the swords skill on a mob spawner is not).
If you are found to have used any kind of illegal automation, your relevant statistics/balance will be reduced and/or cleared entirely at the discretion of administration.
Be warned that we take this very seriously.​

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

You are not allowed to use any form of automation to complete tasks for you.​

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

I would like to apologize for using an automated fishing mod and can assure you it will not happen again. It was a mistake and I do not wish to cause any problems in the future. I understand why I was banned and the punishment was just. However, I ask for one more chance.​
