Ban Appeal

Minecraft Username: @iTzXtremeGaming

Have you changed your Minecraft username since being banned? If so, what is your previous name?: I have not

Which of ECC's services are you banned on? [Main Server/Teamspeak/Shoutbox - delete as appropriate]: Main Server

Reason of Ban: AFK Auto-McMMO Train

Rule violated:
Clause 4 - Third Party Programs, Auto-Clicking, Auto-Farming, etc.

• The use of third party programs that create any form of advantage that does not require you to do work while playing Minecraft is strictly prohibited, and can result in a ban.
• EcoCityCraft staff have measures in place to test for users auto-clicking and using third party programs. Users caught auto-clicking, auto-fishing, using an aimbot, or any other distinct advantage to exploit game play will be punished appropriately.
• Any form of auto money generation, including, but not limited to, auto-farming and auto-fishing, is completely prohibited by any means.
• If you are caught using macros or clients to generate money without having to do any work, you will be punished, up to and including the extent of being permanently banned and having everything you own wiped off the server.
• Be warned that we take this very seriously.

Please explain in your own words what the rule(s) means: It's a simple, clear rule. Do not use any third party programs to do anything illegal which might hurt the economy.

Reason you feel you think you should be unbanned: I'm more frustrated with myself than ever with this ban. I know i said that in my last ban appeal, but to be honest, i have no idea what i was doing. This was an insanely idiotic thing to do on my part.

I was speaking to emongolab earlier that day on teamspeak. He knows that i'd had a rough day and that, we spoke about it for a bit, and then i'd calmed down a bit. Something got me wound up again and i proceeded to think of ways that could calm my stress down, and tbh i should of simply clicked disconnect, and went off for a while. But instead, i found an acrobatics trainer macro, which i actually didn't know would count as being a third party program, i didn't know i could be banned for it. I was watching netflix while on my other monitor, while the macro was on. I didn't see what happened or anything, then i turned around, saw the minecraftscreen saying i was banned for afk automcmmo train. I should be more careful next time and not go afk while doing it, and even more to that, i shouldn't of had the macro. I have deleted the macro and it is of no more existance on my pc. I plead to let emongolab handle my appeal as he was the one that understood my frustration yesterday, he understood what happened. I can't believe i've let myself do this all in return for getting mad, when i simply could of clicked "disconnect". I will probably not get anymore trust from anyone, and more than anything, i want to get back on to repay a debt to Jrhockey17, he has been waiting patiently for his money and i'd like to return it.

I'm so sorry for my actions everyone, i have not only embarrassed myself, but everyone here on the server. This mistake will never happen again, and i plead for a second chance.

 

I actually wasn't afk the whole 16 hours, that's the thing, let me explain.

I came on in the morning, and when i leave to go outside, etc, i usually don't log off. Just leave it on (wasn't afk training at that time). And when i am not afk, i was sg'ing for a good 8-10 hours on that day. It just turned out that when i got tired, (it was around 2am my time) i watched some netflix on a monitor beside my pc. And i was so ingrossed in the film, i didn't see any of emongolabs pms, or when i got teleported, til after i was banned then i checked logs to see what happened.

As far as i was aware, it wasn't illegal as long as you weren't afk, and technically, iwasn't, but i was so ingrossed i guess it looked like i was. I should of been more careful, and i understand the mistake i made.

Hope that clears things up,
