I would like to add to my appeal, that I should be seen as the chief responsible for this lazy Cheat. It was 100% my idea and I was the initial user of this failed exercise.

My fellow Noxans were tempted beyond the duty of playing fair to join in on my indulgence.

It is not their fault.

Of course they are responsible for their own actions but if it hadn’t been for my folly they would never have been led astray.

Dear mods and admins please unleash your wrath at me and not those who were enticed into doing a thing they wouldn’t have done otherwise.

So, I appeal to the leaders of this board to let Hero and iHoolian off with a stern warning, and turn your righteous pointing fingers at me the original culprit of the crime committed.

original text:

I have been banned by Lord_Shampoo for using a 3rd party auto-click utility. I fully admit to having used such a software.

I decided to use it as a rather crude way to circumvent the recent mob nerf. I felt that using a non-minecraft software to fuel my xp farming could not be defined as a Hack, so I, stupidly (since I should have know better) went ahead and implemented it.

It was a pain to use. After being afk for a while your health bar goes down to minimum hearts and frequently there would be a server reboot or random disconnects and once I logged back in, a glitch zombie would always have found a way out of the mob trap and kill me, effectively making me loose any xp level over 8. In other cases I would lose control due to the auto-click, and then panic and die. So all in all, a waste of time and effort.

Did it give me an advantage? Yes of course it did. Is it a Hack. No, but I can see now that it very well could fall under the other categories set in rule 4: No Exploits or Cheating, both which a bannable.

So I have been justly banned.

I would like to take this opportunity to apologize for breaking rule 4.

I accept the fact that just because the software is 3rd party, there is no excuse. What I did was wrong and I am sorry.

I have sold enchanted tools that were created at a somewhat, marginally, quicker pace, because of this software, and I regret this since it adds an unbalance to the economics of Minerealm and this should, in any event, be totally unacceptable,

I am ready to pay any damages that is required of me. I will accept any punishment without debate.
I only, humbly, ask, in this appeal, to be let back unto the server which I love and cherish.

The auto-click software has been deleted from my PC, and I hereby categorically state that I, from now on, and in all future, will never use ANY exploitative software while playing Minerealm.

Best regards,

Well written ban appeal i hope you get unbanned soon bro.
miss ya

Very nicely written
I have been playing various types of "grinding" (repetitive clicking) games for years. I've only ever played one game that allowed any kind of "auto-clicker" "macroing" etc. That game had very complicated crafting processes and for some people they would be near impossible to complete without macros. Even then if you were caught afk macroing you were kicked at a minimum. Just an FYI for any other gaming endeavors in anyone's future, this type of software is generally not allowed.

In fact if someone could someone make an external bot for Minecraft that would be allowed too. It's an external program not a mod, therefore you have no rules on it.

If you can be banned for things not in the rules, then this server is in worse shape than I thought. I'm not sure what is so hard about updating the rules now and then, but I suppose that isn't my business.

I hope you get unbaned, you were nice.

comes under both cheating and hacking, not to mention un-fair advantage

Airlie91 No it doesn't. Grab a dictionary.
It's not common sense its facts of words.

George, you're a n00b here, be quite, especially when you yourself cannot follow the rules

Airlie91 and calling me names proves your worthy of telling everyone everything.

I can follow rules, the rules are corrupt.
Unfairly controlled and managed and people like you are the reason this happened.
EDIT:
Also just to clarify i've been here longer than you, I might have a lower post rate than you but thats because i don't spam rubbish.
But still your the BOSS! lol

Cheating means "To act dishonestly or unfairly in order to gain an advantage, esp. in a game or examination: 'she cheats at cards'."

I don't know about you, but when something isn't clearly in the rules it's not, in my opinion, dishonest to do it.

Hacking is bypassing something using a method that is not allowed, There are no safety protections to prevent this from happening, it's not a hack.

So not a hack either.

Please show us a rule that actually says this is bannable.
