The tempban wasn’t just for the glitching, it was consistently lying and being a pain in the ass about it. Plus you had just been warned the previous week for it. You wasted my time, I wasted yours.

Emiel then gave us some pretty serious information that you had admitted to him to being behind some bot attacks the previous year or something (more on this later). Rumour had it that you were behind some attacks back in November the previous year – this wasn’t new information, people were already speculating it back then. You have a good knowledge of minecraft, PCs, and VPNs, it would be child’s play for you to do this.Obviously Emiel coming forward with such things was quite a big deal. You and him had been close friends for a long time, and apparently you had told him about this last year. He kept his head low as he was your friend – then he was promoted, and ran into a shitty situation: Do I tell staff and get yelled at and break our friendship, or keep it to myself and risk worse… He eventually came to us and we dealt with him separately. Gods and I take accusations like these very seriously, so of course Emiel was pressured to spill the beans – this wasn’t something he could just come up with on the spot. With what he provided, and considering your track record, nasty rumours of you using hacks (yes, i know all pvpers have these), already being banned for xray, etc etc, we had a staff vote. Which was in overwhelming majority for you to be perm banned again – you were causing us too much trouble, these accusations were nothing to sneeze at. We wanted you out.

This is the same person responsible for multiple bot attacks that would follow in coming months, leading to crash the server as you will all remember. We have noted a distinct pattern of when this person attacks the server, and when bloated gets in touch with us again – months of inactivity and then within a day of each other both return. Anyways.
<li style=”box-sizing: border-box; background: 0px 0px; margin: 0px; list-style: disc;”><span style=”box-sizing: border-box;”>25/07/19 – You start playing the victim card on emiel to get unbanned</span><br style=”box-sizing: border-box;” />You joined a few days prior with your A_cl0ne account to bypass your ban, and check up on the server. Obviously you lied to us again about that – I had someone message you and you replied with “what? I just bought this account from someone!”.Anyway, you decide to go back to your old pal emiel and ask him to play along in your little game. You want to be unbanned and play again, and start twisting your words as you do so many times with me, and others, to try and get him <em style=”box-sizing: border-box;”>of all people, to help you. You wanted your stuff transferred to Melon – he’s in on it, as are several others. And I, on behalf of emiel, am also in on it. You ask him to install some shady command blocker that’s stupid (<em style=”box-sizing: border-box;”>he doesn’t obviously), your main account is unbanned, you log on, and “Oh no! You’re in the locker and can’t /permissiontrust! What do I do now..?”Well you come on with another alt the next day, pretending to be a “Shockerboy youtube fan” (honestly it cracked me up when I read it), and this new “deckhand” wanted to “visit the locker like in episode 7 of the lets play to ‘experience it’”. I knew it was you, try better next time lol. Anyways, I sent you there, you got digging so you could transfer your sand to your main account, leave the locker, go to survival, trust the people you need, and be gone.

He is very talkative (talks just like you, y’know) and insists staff contact him about an ‘urgent matter’ or else he will crash the server. Spoilers: the server gets crashed a few days later by several more waves. Attacks continue for a solid week, almost every day for 2+ hours.
<li style=”box-sizing: border-box; background: 0px 0px; margin: 0px; list-style: disc;”><span style=”box-sizing: border-box;”>21/9/19</span> – Robot contacts lazy directly, your name, among others, is mentioned, ‘things happen’. Apparently you have been in touch with Robot and endorsed their attacks… that is, if you aren’t the same person… but who knows. Up until now both of your patterns have been very very similar. This serious mess is dealt with a few days later, ending the bot attacks until… well we get another one tonight from a different person conveniently. <em style=”box-sizing: border-box;”>No seriously, out of the blue, a new bot person, no idea.

Its also pretty clear that several of your ‘punishments’ were joke punishments (Bans: #1, #3, #4, Mutes: #5). 2017

–/–/18 – Chat spam, irritating Gods and PythonAce You came back and misbehaved in chat. You said yourself you let slip a sarcastic comment towards Gods that got you the 2 hour ban. You received a total of 5 mutes (generally for being rude and disrespectful to staff), and 3 autobans for chatspam. However, the chat spam would be something you would continue to do up until you were finally banned in June 2019 – we asked you to stop, I know old habits die hard, but it was really obnoxious comprende?

2019 And it all kicks off here.

 

16/03/19 – Muted by me for being rude. You came back to be rude towards staff, as usual. Argued with me about it, as usual… or in other words ‘talk your way out of it’.

23/03/19 – Warned for abuse of chatsystem to bypass pvp We saw you do it multiple times, we had reports of you doing it. Spam chat enough, it thinks you’re spamming and kicks you. PvP manager doesn’t realize you’ve been kicked until its too late, and you essentially bypass pvp logging. You knew what you were doing.

02/05/19 – Warned for glitching through doors Lazy found you behind an iron door magically. At least this time you didn’t argue about it.

08/05/19 – 24h Mute for your excessive chat spam. Again.

23/05/19 – Tempban 2 weeks for glitching, lying to staff, arguing with me about it for hours We found you and Melon had emptied Creeper’s vault. Melon admitted it, returned the items, knew he fucked up and took the warning. You consistently denied any sort of involvement categorically – first you weren’t there at all with him, then you were, then you were messing around and he glitched, then you helped him but didn’t go inside, then you went inside… we went at this for a good 2 hours. The tempban wasn’t just for the glitching, it was consistently lying and being a pain in the ass about it. Plus you had just been warned the previous week for it. You wasted my time, I wasted yours.

03/06/19 – Tempbanned (and later banned) for a variety of things Gods found your netherportal at warp shops to direct players to your own shop in the nether – which while clever, was manipulation of the shop system – which overlapped with the original punishment (thus some people think you were banned purely for doing the shop thing – you weren’t).Shortly after you returned from your ban, you had some er… ‘hiccups’ with emiel in-game. Emiel then gave us some pretty serious information that you had admitted to him to being behind some bot attacks the previous year or something (more on this later). Rumour had it that you were behind some attacks back in November the previous year – this wasn’t new information, people were already speculating it back then. You have a good knowledge of minecraft, PCs, and VPNs, it would be child’s play for you to do this.Obviously Emiel coming forward with such things was quite a big deal. You and him had been close friends for a long time, and apparently you had told him about this last year. He kept his head low as he was your friend – then he was promoted, and ran into a shitty situation: Do I tell staff and get yelled at and break our friendship, or keep it to myself and risk worse… He eventually came to us and we dealt with him separately. Gods and I take accusations like these very seriously, so of course Emiel was pressured to spill the beans – this wasn’t something he could just come up with on the spot. With what he provided, and considering your track record, nasty rumours of you using hacks (yes, i know all pvpers have these), already being banned for xray, etc etc, we had a staff vote. Which was in overwhelming majority for you to be perm banned again – you were causing us too much trouble, these accusations were nothing to sneeze at. We wanted you out.

24/06/19 – First bot attack that can be linked to a discord player named ‘Robot’. This is the same person responsible for multiple bot attacks that would follow in coming months, leading to crash the server as you will all remember. We have noted a distinct pattern of when this person attacks the server, and when bloated gets in touch with us again – months of inactivity and then within a day of each other both return. Anyways.

25/07/19 – You start playing the victim card on emiel to get unbanned You joined a few days prior with your A_cl0ne account to bypass your ban, and check up on the server. Obviously you lied to us again about that – I had someone message you and you replied with “what? I just bought this account from someone!”.Anyway, you decide to go back to your old pal emiel and ask him to play along in your little game. You want to be unbanned and play again, and start twisting your words as you do so many times with me, and others, to try and get him of all people, to help you. You wanted your stuff transferred to Melon – he’s in on it, as are several others. And I, on behalf of emiel, am also in on it. You ask him to install some shady command blocker that’s stupid (he doesn’t obviously), your main account is unbanned, you log on, and “Oh no! You’re in the locker and can’t /permissiontrust! What do I do now..?”Well you come on with another alt the next day, pretending to be a “Shockerboy youtube fan” (honestly it cracked me up when I read it), and this new “deckhand” wanted to “visit the locker like in episode 7 of the lets play to ‘experience it’”. I knew it was you, try better next time lol. Anyways, I sent you there, you got digging so you could transfer your sand to your main account, leave the locker, go to survival, trust the people you need, and be gone. Couple days later I head to your base, admin claim it as I knew well in advance of what you were planning, and managed to catch you off-guard when emiel re-banned you with a different command, when it seems you forgot to turn on your VPN and suddenly all your accounts showed up with the same bloatedhippo IP address… all banned now, of course. But hey I got you to dig sand for 4 hours for nothing.

19-28/08/19 – We get most of the bot attacks now, all from the same player (bar one that was advertising a shitty server), with the leader ‘wanting to speak to the owner’. The bot owner tried their hardest to make life miserable for the people on here, but nevertheless engaged chat to try and pressure our staff to fix the issue and talk with the bot person. Pretty damn manipulative.

29/8/19 – You contact Rommerit about wanting to help VER with yet another alt account.

9/9/19 – More bot attacks.

10/9/19 – KingKaiser/Rome discord drama. Mystic, Drifting, all KingKaisers banned or tempbanned (this is relevant). We get a bot attack later that evening.

11/9/19 – The bot leader, ‘Robot’, introduces himself for the first time properly. He is very talkative (talks just like you, y’know) and insists staff contact him about an ‘urgent matter’ or else he will crash the server. Spoilers: the server gets crashed a few days later by several more waves. Attacks continue for a solid week, almost every day for 2+ hours.

21/9/19 – Robot contacts lazy directly, your name, among others, is mentioned, ‘things happen’. Apparently you have been in touch with Robot and endorsed their attacks… that is, if you aren’t the same person… but who knows. Up until now both of your patterns have been very very similar. This serious mess is dealt with a few days later, ending the bot attacks until… well we get another one tonight from a different person conveniently. No seriously, out of the blue, a new bot person, no idea.

—————————————————————————- Look, I understand your anger and frustration. You feel it was unjustified, you feel innocent, you want that chance to come back. We have people that play that have arguably more punishments… but you were given a second chance already, and you blew it. Your fishy business with the accusations, and later trying to manipulate Emiel into unbanning you… kind of put the nail in the coffin. We’ve got toxic players, we’ve got rule breakers, but you take it to a new level with targeting Emiel and this bot shit, assuming there is some weight behind it.

 

If you truly want the best for him, don’t message him anymore. He’s sick and tired of you and the anxiety you have given him – he’s going through very tough times, he doesn’t want to speak to you anymore. On the topic of that, do you have any idea what stress you have caused him? I’m not saying this to make him look like the victim – Emiel fucked up big time, he knows that, and he’s not asked me to vouch for him here because I’m a friend. I and many others were genuinely very concerned for his mental health. We dealt with Emiel separately, but you were constantly messaging him during your ban, manipulating him, targeting him as you knew he is that kind of person who might have a heart for you – you knew full well he could get himself banned for this. Did you not once think to yourself “hmm, I’ve kind of been a cunt to him, perhaps I should leave him alone”. But its not your fault is it? No, you’re just trying to have your items transferred. Its what you do. Its what you have always done – you talk your way out of things and manipulate people. You tried doing it with me and the glitching. You did it with Emiel. You tried doing it with all your other punishments. Sometimes, and this is a life lesson not just for minecraft, its better to shut your mouth rather than being all smart about things. I’m pretty sure this feud between you and the server staff wouldn’t be half as bad if you just shut it sometimes. Hell I’d even say one of the main issues we had with you was trying to out-smart and talk your way out of things c o n s t a n t l y. ————————————————————————————– I am aware of the hate train that gathers around controversial people of our community – an unpopular player does something fishy and suddenly “they need to be banned because they did X and Y“. We know. Yes, there is a chance that all of this bot attack stuff didn’t happen, all these events and evidence we have, is all just one big coincidence – set in motion by individuals who have a bone to pick with you. But what do you expect us to do? Forget about it all? What do you think would happen if we let you return; everything goes back to the good ol’ days? No. The damage has been done, the evidence we have, the punishment tracker we have, it all speaks a different story. Its all going to happen all over again – you’ll get your loyal followers, some small issue will occur, you will make a big deal of it when staff are inevitably dragged in = drama. It’ll just end in the same old mess – you’ll probably get punished for what you see as a petty crime because you tried being smart about it, and before long we’ll just end up banning you again. Huzzah. Community is divided, staff are being pulled into drama of controversial players, its literally the worst scenario. Wait a month and we start getting messages of how sorry you are, but not before you pop on with more alts inbetween to bypass your punishment. Well sorry buddy, its not going to repeat. This ends here. You aren’t coming back, you won’t come back. Whether or not some of your previous punishments were seen as harsh, what you have done since and the evidence we have suggest you have indeed not become more responsible for your actions – because you never were responsible for the shit you did in the first place. Please go find a different community to harass and divide – you’ve done your fair share of damage here already.

 

Denied and closed.

 

We don’t want apologies, and we don’t want your money for an unban, take it elsewhere. Do not message me or other staff about this. You’ve blown your chances, we’re all sick and tired to death. Use this time wisely and find a new community, start afresh, make new friends online. I hope you can find a community who will tolerate you and your bullshit.

 

Farewell, good luck, and goodbye.

Now to the main event, your appeal.

We wanted you to make an appeal publicly, as we were bored of denying your appeals via discord – and quite frankly other staff are fed up with you messaging them about it. Its here for everyone to see now, and FYI you don’t need to ask us to make a public appeal – you can do that anytime anywhere; whether it be in the US, Canada, France, or wherever else you had your VPNs registered.

—————————————————————————–

I think a chronological order is best, so from the start. Its also pretty clear that several of your ‘punishments’ were joke punishments (Bans: #1, #3, #4, Mutes: #5).

2017

• 28/04/17 – Banned for Xray
  You were banned for suspected Xray, and a video surfaced of you using killaura on a different server. While I wasn’t there to check for Xray, something was fishy so we denied your first appeal. Your second appeal in April 2018 was accepted, and you got your second chance. You also logged on with your A_cl0ne account and another account to bypass your ban a few times if I remember correctly.
• 26/10/17 – Warned for Advertising
  You chose to start advertising your own server to your crew members and others in /msg. We know of other people’s involvement of this, and while what you do in your server is none of our business, we don’t appreciate you advertising it. You just don’t do this – you don’t get invited to a party and start talking about how good your party is going to be. This one’s on Gods – his server his rules, we have 0 tolerance for this kind of advertising.

2018

• –/–/18 – Chat spam, irritating Gods and PythonAce
  You came back and misbehaved in chat. You said yourself you let slip a sarcastic comment towards Gods that got you the 2 hour ban. You received a total of 5 mutes (generally for being rude and disrespectful to staff), and 3 autobans for chatspam. However, the chat spam would be something you would continue to do up until you were finally banned in June 2019 – we asked you to stop,
  I know old habits die hard,
  but it
  was
  really
  obnoxious
  comprende?

2019

And it all kicks off here.

• 16/03/19 – Muted by me for being rude.
  You came back to be rude towards staff, as usual. Argued with me about it, as usual… or in other words ‘talk your way out of it’.
• 23/03/19 – Warned for abuse of chatsystem to bypass pvp
  We saw you do it multiple times, we had reports of you doing it. Spam chat enough, it thinks you’re spamming and kicks you. PvP manager doesn’t realize you’ve been kicked until its too late, and you essentially bypass pvp logging. You knew what you were doing.
• 02/05/19 – Warned for glitching through doors
  Lazy found you behind an iron door magically. At least this time you didn’t argue about it.
• 08/05/19 – 24h Mute for your excessive chat spam. Again.

Farewell, good luck, and goodbye.

In all seriousness, here’s a round up of the past 3 months:

• Helper rank introduced as a temporary rank which allows the user to jail, mute, and kick I think. Admins can freely set anyone to this rank and demote as they please. Current helpers are LEGO, Nahadoth, Bazurka, and Palmerageddon.
• Emielreijs and PythonAce promoted to Moderator
• TAS and CLTN had land drama – it quickly escalated and involved staff
• A shrek cult was formed by JUSAplayer1- basically a bunch of people with shrek names shreking people
• The_Network, JavaInvader, and Kellyyore removed from staff positions, Creepermorderen promoted to developer
• We discovered that Kettoh, Jmoo, and Riverwood202 had been spawning in money for the past 10 months, they were banned along with The_Network. CLTN – TAS drama largely stopped at that point. Their belongings were confiscated.
• Introduction of the ‘Locker’ as a punishment – you are teleported to a separate world made of sand and must dig 3 double chests of sand (I think) with no tools. You are unable to talk, tp out, or skip the punishment.
• Halloween crate was added and keys drop randomly to people every 30 minutes. Top prize is a highly sought after sharpness 11 hoe.
• Shockerboy died
• A small bit of drama ongoing right now between several crews

I would also like to add some things replying to naha’s post.

Naha, you said; “Xeuric and Systeen have been constantly verbally assaulting many TAS players and constantly raiding them with very little to no time in between.”

1- we gave what we took

2- we havent done any raiding of TAS members , we sieged Cysteen once, so dont say we raid them all the time

“Has been attacking whenever we try to leave our bases.”

1- a big aspect of this sever is PvP related

2- we are waring crews therefore I have reason to attack you

“They sieged the claim Cysteen made for us to make the new build, but shortly after Xeuric and Cysteen were both kicked by AC.”

1- Keem wasnt there until I won and tp-ed him

2- I gave everything of value back to cys cos I know this is a bad way to die as I’m always kicked in siege.

“They have been killing multiple TAS members daily and sieging with very little to no time in between.”

1- Bullshit  i’ve killed one TAS member , PythonAce cos he was near my base

2- The only TAS member we have sieged was Cysteen and we lost and left.

” Xeuric admitted to telling me he was intentionally ruining Java’s crew just to mess with him.”

1- No I didnt, the reason he left is because Keem and I killed crew members and then this forced every one to leave

2- He shouldnt have made everyone leaders

“Early today when Xeuric or Systeen was killed from having a home set on top of Jolem’s base, they dropped a book upon death called “Fuck Cysteen.””

1- My spawn isnt at jolems so how can i have dropped book

2- On this topic Keem was killed roughly 20 times at his spawn and then his spawn was lava-ed, this I know is illegal

So, I have been banned for harrasment- but im harrased daily on the server by people like JUSA, Cap, Turk

They all say im Trash at Pvp, and always Put me down when I offer the 1v1 somone. Turk is always pressureing me into fighting him. I have looked at the true definiton of harrasment and this certainly matches.

Side note – I didnt bad mouth Cysteen, i actually came into TS so say sorry because there is no glory in winning a siege via the AC. I returned her crapples but everything else had Curse of vannishing on it.

Okta made a very valid point-

“So when a powerful exclusive pirate crew full of experienced PVPer’s who members attack plenty of other crews for fun gets attacked by a couple of players they call harassment? LMAO”

Not to be disrespectful to staff, but many of them are infact in TAS or CLTN which can maybe inflict biast? – just saying

No offence to staff in that point, but i Know some stuff maybe dislike me but I can still respect their decisions

One particualy helpful staff in this case was Max, and to you I say thanks 🙂

I’m impressed with the amount of effort you went through to fill all tis in!! though I would like to correct you on a few events:

-november 2015
17 – The Crusaders of the Void are founded by Cysteen, Daniel_McLachlen, Unic0rnjunk101. According to Unic0rnjunk101, the
original purpose of the group was to hunt people who stole loot drops at the Halloween event.

uni(java) was NOT an original CoV leader. the original 5 were myself, Daniel_McLachlen, VenturaTheWizard, dagersh, and DarkCodes97. the original purpose was to be the strongest pirate crew on the server.

-january 2016
? – Eden is founded by Asterity and will soon join the Crusaders of the Void.

asterity did NOT found Eden. Eden was a large group of players that came from factions. iirc (if I remember correctly), ECaptain was their leader. asterity had offered them a place to live in her town, then eventually got invited to CoV after playing with other CoV and being in TS for a long time.

-may 2016
25 – The Asylum is founded by Cysteen and Jmoo_.

I founded TAS (The Asylum), though I later promoted Jmoo_ and PythonAce after my crew had grown so large, and I needed help to maintain it.

–
august 2016
20 – Cysteen tries to transform the war against the Templars into a minigame with killing points.

hehe.. lemme try to explain this one. I didn’t TRY to turn it into a minigame. after Templars declared war on BE, several BE members *coughshaycough* refused to accept a loss, even though it was blatantly obvious who lost and who won in some fights. Be would lead a few attacks, then some would run, then say they won because they didn’t die, even though they never finished the fight. it got tiring to see the constant bickering between both Templars AND BE, so I talked with Cap and proposed that stupid point system, for all the whiney ones that couldn’t agree who the beep won how and why. it was literally only made in hopes to stop all the constant bickering back and forth from both crews on who wins which battles. sadly it didn’t work, but I tried. in all fairness, that war wasn’t really much of a “war” anyways, as BE only led less than.. id say 5 full attacks, while Templars led more and hunted more individual BE members. that’s why my stupid point system is seen as turning it into a minigame. because in the end it’s how it felt when people from both sides kept complaining.

enough on that topic. love the work and effort you put into making this! I hope I was able to clear up a few things, it’s be great if you could make the changes to be more accurate 🙂

I voted to get rid of /bottle, reason being its makes things to easy among other things.

Ok, so how i think it makes things to easy is because of mending, and how easy it is to make a lot of exp if you put time into it. Such as if someone stands in the exp grinder for a few hours grinding away they could get lots, thus making mending op, and pvp fights last for even longer then they already do. There is no fun in that, no challenge, nothing that makes it more interesting to play. Now while the people with dubs of exp will be OP for awhile, and those who have well established grinders will have an advantage in the long run. That just means that put time into it, put time into making grinders, farms, and so on. Plus exp bottles would still be able to be gotten with villies, all you have to do is put time into find a spider spawner, or zombie spawner, and you could sit there with a lotting III blade and get a ton of string/rotten flesh to trade, and to get the villies, just wait around long enough and a zombie villie will spawn, then all you would need is a golden apple and a potion of weakness. Yeah it will be harder, and yes new players would be at a disadvantage. But if new players come to a survival sever, that is also a pirate server expecting it to be easy, does this server really want more people that only whine, moan, and complain about how hard it is? In my oppion it would be more fun to have new players that put time into things, that are willing to push through hard times and set up their own grinders/farms, or make friends with people that might have grinders/farms. Also to add on to it, most new players will most likely not know of the exsitance of /bottle, unless they actually read through the website, or someone tells them about it. Basically my point im trying to make is that yeah it will be harder, yeah it would take longer to get exp/exp bottles, but as it has been mentioned i believe, the rank req would be tweaked. It would be harder, but still doable, people could still get exp bottles, and if you have a lot of lvls  on you, enchant things, don’t have things to enchant, mine and get what you need, don’t want to mine, buy it, don’t have enough money and don’t want to mine, well then thats just being lazy, and that wont get you anywhere. Anyways, i prolly repeated some points that were already stated, but i hope i was able to state my opinion clear enough.
