Minecraft Username: Int3nse_n00b Punishment and Duration: Doesn't say but presumably permaban Reason: Again, doesn't say. Attached is the screenshot of my ban message. I was never told what I did wrong. I was not given an opportunity to correct anything I had done wrong. I was not warned of my impending ban. I was just working on my new house and I was suddenly banned. Attachments:

Do you seriously not know?
It's because you and phallus have no intention of following the rules. You've been banned once for the wall built around another player's home. It was later reported to the staff that you guys built a swastika near another player's claim claiming its a "religious symbol." And more recently, when you say "working on your house," do you mean this room?
and these in your town?
Your buddy saw it coming btw

Hello: "I was never told what I did wrong." Quite the contrary: you were told more than once by staff that building shrines to the most hateful period in recent history, and inviting others to see them, was not OK. Yet, you persisted. You ignored the second chances that were given you from the previous events. You were told, but you chose not to listen. "I was suddenly banned." This was coming for a long time. Again, you were warned that your actions were inconsistent with this community. Yet, you persisted. Your friend `Phallus15243` even openly admitted that this is your pattern, and "ban" is the expected outcome. 2018-12-12 00:53:03 Phallus15243 well yeah eventually we get banned but mehWe can't read your mind (nor do we want to), but your actions speak clearly: you either A) want to troll the owner of the server and his team by expressing the most hateful things, to see if you can get a rise out of them; or B) you actually believe these things and want to share your thoughts with this community; or C) "Why not both?" ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Regardless, you've told us by your actions that you don't really want to "play the block game" here with the other players. In a community of people trying to build great things and help one another, you and your friends `Phallus15243` and `Nom_My_Shark` create monuments to hate. You three have acted as a team in this. Building shrines to hatred and racism. Signs such as (paraphrasing) "Zionists must burn" and "Niggers aren't people" and "Whites Entrance, No Colored, No Hispanic, No Chinks". Images such as giant swastikas placed high on a building, or flaming swastikas inside your home. Inviting friends to see them. And as a last straw, yesterday `Phallus15243` mined diamonds with obvious, textbook-example xray. I speak for the team, including Meehan, when I say to all three of you: it's time for you to go. One last thought: you have cited "free speech" as your defense for what you've done in the past. If you aren't familiar with the comic strip "xkcd", you might want to take a look at the link below. As the author of that strip put it: "... someone once said that defending a position by citing free speech is sort of the ultimate concession; you're saying that the most compelling thing you can say for your position is that it's not literally illegal to express." That's pretty weak. xkcd: Free Speech

Regarding the first two screenshots, We had a case like this before. If the builder so chooses to build it where no one else can see or get to it, and they don't have people tp-ed to it, they are free to have it. If something like this is put up again out in the open, we will not hesitate to take action and start temp or banning said builders. We aren't stupid, we know what a swastica looks like and we also know what the hindu symbol looks like. We were born but it was not yesterday. We could have demolished the structures if asked but I was under the impression (as given by the moderator quoted above) that as long as it was out of sight, it was allowed. That sign that says free trade slave labor is just a joke. I am not sure why you have included it as evidence for my ban. As I typed in chat on the night of 12/14-12/15, I am the slave. Slavery is not a racial concept; all races have been enslaved. The sign was not meant to be construed as anything but a joke. Again, I would have been happy to remove it if I was given the chance to. As for the walls around our base, they have been there for days and several players and staff have seen them. They are there to delineate the border of Raccoon Town as opposed to Hoodie's area. We were planning on building a rail network along those sky lanes and the walls. And about my new house, no. If you fly over the walls and continue straight over the ocean, you'll come across a cobblestone and wood build on a small island.

"Just a joke". Sorry, that ship has sailed.
You've had your say. There's clearly nothing more to be said here.
As the song by the great Ray Charles put it: "Hit the road, Jack."
