Minecraft Username: GiveMeCookie Have you changed your Minecraft username since being banned? If so, what is your previous name?: I have not changed it since I was banned Which of ECC's services are you banned on? Main Server/Teamspeak Reason of Ban: Vulgar language/Trolling/Disrespect towards staff members Rule violated: Section 2 - Griefing, Trolling and Harassment Clause 2 - Trolling Trolling is not allowed on the server, especially any trolling that is directed towards another user. This includes, but is not limited to: Flame baiting Harassment (See Section 2 Clause 3.) Cyber-bullying Attempts to start any form of chaos and discord within the server. Clause 3 - Harassment Harassment constitutes as any form of action (chat or game play wise) that makes another player feel threatened or otherwise ruins their game play. Griefing in the wild does not constitute harassment. Harassment in the wild is strictly chat/command based. This includes, but is not limited to; blackmail, bullying or any other form of harassment that occurs through our chat system. Attempting to kill other players in any non-PvP zone also constitutes as harassment, and succeeding in killing other players in non-PvP areas is a very severe offence that will result in a ban. Harassment is absolutely inexcusable on EcoCityCraft. If you are engaging in this behavior expect to be removed from the server with little to no warning. Disrespecting staff falls under this rule - They are players too. Section 4 - Chat, Channels and Discussions Clause 2 - Vulgarity Inappropriate and vulgar language is not allowed. This includes anything put on signs, said in chat, written in books, renamed to on items (see Section 3 Clause 2.1), spelt out in blocks (see Section 2, Clause 2.1), or any other way of communicating. Occasional mild to moderate vulgarities that are not directed at anyone (such as "slip-ups" or saying them in the incorrect chat by accident), self-censorship of a swear word or abbreviations that may imply a swear word (eg. WTF?) are allowed unless it is directed at another user. Repeated or excessive swearing, and especially vulgar language directed at anyone, is not tolerated under any circumstance. Racist language or prejudicial language of any sort falls under the vulgarity rule, and is considered a very serious offence, punishment of which may not warrant a warning before being given a ban, Please explain in your own words what the rule(s) means: Trolling is usually when a player is annoying, hurting, griefing, etc. intending to cause problems or ruin another player's game play. Harassment is when a player is disrespecting or trolling a player intending to hurt them or ruin there game play. Vulgarity is when a player is cursing, using sexual references or any kind of inappropriate language no suitable for younger members of the community. Reason you feel you think you should be unbanned: I believe I should be unbanned because I know trolling/harasment/vulgarity is unacceptable but well I was trolling I was about to log off and go take a break as I was on the brink of being banned but then Dewsy said this to me: [18:39:52] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [G] [ServerAdmin] **Dewsy: So you can't spell, yet you think you can decide when someone is smart or not? [18:39:53] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [G] [ServerAdmin] **Dewsy: gg kid This got me very angry and I know I shouldn't have acted the way I did but I was just very angry, I'm sorry I don't have a screenshots to prove it I just wasn't thinking of it at the time. I'm very sorry for causing all this trouble, again. I will work hard at not trolling and I promise you won't see me posting in this section again (unless it's a complaint but you know what I mean).
