Second, your punishment is to write a 500 word essay defining and discussing portal camping. You will be unbanned once the essay has been submitted. Any additional players banned for portal camping will have 100 words added to the length of their essay.
I am extremely sorry for portal camping. I teleported in the nether and then got hit by someone but I didn’t know who considering there were around 3+ more people around the teleporter, so I just started clicking. I’m sorry for doing this and I should have just ran away. I will keep this in mind for the next time this may happen. As said by Kerovon his self, there is no portal camping which means that you cannot wait at a portal with an intention to kill a player. I am very deeply sorry for doing so, and as I stated before, I just started clicking without thinking. Everytime I go into the nether, I will make sure to take into account who hit me, and make sure to attack him and only him. I know that I cannot get away with portal camping now, as the admins will always know whether or not I am portal camping as seen in the previous bans which include cannabin0l’s and the most recent, which is Zachhunt’s ban. I’m sure that I will never ever portal camp again. Also what Kerovon said was that you are only allowed to hit someone near a portal who has stood there for 30 or more seconds. That of which Kerovon’s alt was not doing. Not only did he state that, he also stated that if a player attacks you, you are entitled to attack them back, regardless if they happened to just enter the nether. Referring back to what I said earlier, someone hit me but I wasn’t sure who it was so I hit a random person and killed him. Not only will I remember those rules above, but I will also remember that there are no safe zones nor are you allowed to kill someone who has just entered the nether then follow them for a number of blocks and then kill them, because that is the same thing as portal camping considering you were just sitting there at the portal waiting for someone to come by. From the result of this ban, I will always, and I mean ALWAYS record all the fights that take place in the nether which include me in it. As if I would have recorded it this time, I could’ve ahd a valid reason for as to why I started hitting, but with out that proof, I still have to be banned for what I have done and I understand that. But just to clarify some more rules, some of you may ask, am I allowed to kill someone after they just hit me? The answer is yes according to what Kerovon stated when he said exactly this “ Additionally, as always, if someone attacks you, you can attack them back, regardless if they just entered the Nether. “ This is the rule I abused. Someone happened to hit me, and I wasn’t sure who, so I started clicking and managed to kill an innocent bystander who had just teleported.
that was 503 words. (not including that statement <-----)
