Hi there all, first of all I'd like to apologise for any offence I may have caused by saying the word that I said.

Now for my appeal:

I'm from the UK, and where I live the word that I said to get banned is entirely inoffensive. I was totally unaware that it was on the list of banned offensive words for this server, and whilst I understand that it is indeed against the rules to say the word, I feel that due to the differing international customs between the US based server and myself in the UK that I should be given another chance.

I am of course, once again, sorry for any offence I may have caused, and I would greatly appreciate being allowed to play on the server once more, I have a large building repertoire that I would just love to finish. In addition to this, I love the community and I would miss all of the friends I have made if were not allowed to rejoin the server. Please consider this, as well as the fact that I have never been banned for swearing before, and neither have I been reported. I have always done things by the book since the last time I was disciplined. Sorry once again, please support my appeal. :)

I'll be watching this space.

Thank you very much for reading my appeal.

I was one of the players online when you were banned. You said a word on the swear filter and the server warned you as it always does . A minute later it seemed you repeated this word and ended up getting a ban. I'm also from the UK and the word i think you said is also regarded in America a bad word aswell i believe.

Your story seems fake from my eyes and is misleading on what happened yesterday.

For my ban, I said only the word that is substituted by the second word in the phrase "Gosh Darn" - In the UK that word is virtually innoffensive. The first time I was warned by the filter was when I used an acronym for a phrase, and so no actual swear words were mentioned from the standpoint of an englishman. I have already explained that I am aware of the cultural differences, and have used this as part of my reasoning as for why I feel my appeal should be accepted.

I feel that you haven't even read by appeal with any care; since I clearly stated that I am from the UK, and that in America that word is offensive, whereas in the UK it is not. (Or no where near as offensive. It can be heard on day-time television.)

I will please ask that people disregard your comment, seeing as it's based on the (false) notion that I said a word different to the one that I did to get banned, and also provides no evidence to suggest I am misleading anyone, which I am not.

After you had seen the warning you should have been more careful on what you put. Also your word IS offensive in the UK, you also ignored that i also live in the Uk and have some knowledge on the language. You would not be able to say this word in front of a teacher as it is still acknowledged in a bad way. This server is child eligible and before you put a word think " would a teacher allow my phrase?"

I literally just heard it said twice in a radio interview on BBC R2 (national radio). It can't be that offensive here if it's allowed at 2pm in the afternoon. I didn't ignore the fact that you're from the UK, I simply found it irrelevant in what I was saying. Maybe that word is offensive where you live, or are you Christian? Certainly where I live down south it is entirely inoffensive.

I understand that you're trying to help, but can you leave it to the admins to decide what happens? I am well aware of the rules, fully now, as I obviously wasn't previously, otherwise I wouldn't have said the word which got me banned, I will admit that the first instance was a slip-up, and I have apologised for that and will apologise again for any offence I have cause.

Also; can you please state your purpose in replying to my appeal? Are you saying I shouldn't be unbanned? What are you trying to get across?

Daily bump.

If any of you people who I play with in game see this post, and want to support, could you please take a minute of your time to write a sentence or two explaining that/why you support me and want to see me unbanned. I feel it may speed up the process.

I apologise again if I have offended any of you, thank you very much for your time,
