Why we should consider your appeal:
On Monday, October 20th, I was banned permanently from Meepcraft for carrying out illegal acts against the server for my own well-being and good. The acts that I had executed could have put a huge dent in the economy if something had been accomplished with the illegal profits. I have realized this now. At the time of doing said things, I did not think about anyone or anything else but my own profits and gain. This was from the greed that slipped its way into my mind when I saw a chance to get money a way no one else could. I wholeheartedly wish I could have thought about the consequences of my actions or change what I have done altogether, or got my common sense to kick back in. It was an idiotic mistake constituted from greed. And I can assure you, this will not happen again from myself as a member.

Even after being banned, I stayed in the community, solely because I love the Meepcraft community. It is one of the greatest and most active communities in the world of Minecraft. After being banned, I went to multiple servers to try and fill the hole that I now know only Meep’s wondrous members can fill. I stayed in touch with a few people including some Staff members. I still commented on apps and forum posts because I missed the friendships and people of this server. I want nothing more than to be allowed to resume my activities in the actual Meepcraft server. After playing on Meepcraft for at least 2 hours everyday for the two and a half months after my inactivity, and making so many friends within that short time-frame, I can honestly say there is no other place like Meep. And I want to be allowed back into this wondrous server.

The Meebles I had obtained illegally were lost due to the Spawn money-loss glitch so nothing was gained from it. Even so, what I did was not at all tolerable within Meep's boundaries, and I am truly sorry for that. I understand the extent of my actions and how unacceptable they were. Although how much I want to go back in time and stop myself from making these mistakes, they are unable to be fixed and I must deal with that. But I am not perfect. Neither is anyone reading this appeal. We are all equal. We all make mistakes no matter admitted or not, they are made because we are human beings. It is in our DNA to be able to cause a bungle every now and again. As Bram Stoker once said, “We learn from failure, not from success!” Some people screw up more often than others, but they are the ones who will be able to strive and succeed in the long run. Failure is inevitable. But it's what is done after the failure and what is done about it. What I did is counted as a major failure, and I have, and will continue to learn from my mistakes as long as I am a part of this server and it's community.

Thank you to each and one of you who took the time to read this appeal. Even if you dislike me, I hope you can see I understand completely that what I have done is wrong, and want to put this behind me. Dwelling on what is done and cannot be fixed is not something I intend to do any longer..

Have a great and prosperous day!

Bobjoncreeper,
Using illegal access to the old spawn to abuse the admin shop, that was no longer apart of meepcraft economy system was a clear disregard for rules, You knew what you were doing, As staff you should know the rules.
It has been only 1 month since you were banned and i don't believe you understand the consequences of the actions yet. There is a lot of trust broken on this matter.

 

Reduced to 30d so 7 days remaining! I suggest you think hard at the trust issue you caused and work hard to gain trust from the community.

 

Thank you Andrew. I appreciate your input. Although you (and anyone else) may not think so, I know myself that I understand the consequences and realize my actions have broke a lot of trusts. But again, thank you.
