I definitely lean conservative, but you do not see me enticing homophobic and transphobic comments (in the big 2026). I believe that even if his ban got overturned to a PCV one, he still shouldn't be given any leniency to come back to the server.

 

I don't know who you are but I don't think anyone cares what you believe sociopolitically. It just comes off as virtue signally to add this information. "Guys, I'm one of the good ones and even I say this is bad". I'm not keeping track of this thread 100% so idk if Smmer is pushing for DPM to come back. That being said, I think a lot of older players have made their bed as a result of years of questionable or downright bad behaviour and now that they've made their bed they need to lie down in it for good even if they've supposedly redeemed themselves. They need to move on with their life and stop trying to play the Craft. Minecraft isn't a game people should be trying to play forever.

Irrespective of the situation at hand (got no context clues on DPM's original ToS ban), the dude is still a horrible person who exercises his freedom of speech to spread hatred towards people who do not line with his right-wing and fascist ideologies. I definitely lean conservative, but you do not see me enticing homophobic and transphobic comments (in the big 2026).

Alas, I digress, I believe that the general populace of bans should have mostly full transparency for what they could have done. Such as your vague post, Smmer, a lot of bans tend to be vague as well and without any coordination from the staff member, it's unreasonable to assume that a person can appeal their ban without any contact. Do I believe that we deserve transparency, not quite, but it would be more beneficial in the long term (irrespective of the ban label, unless it's a TOS).

 

not saying hes a good person or innocent, im saying it took years to reverse his false tos. I have no intentions of supporting or defending him from his past actions. I referred to him because the evidence used was a taken out of context screenshot given by someone who was mad at him at the time and then later tried to rescind it. They didnt investigate, the alleged victim also confirmed that he had done nothing and yet he was made to continuously suffer outside of the lotc communities the rumormill spread outside reaching as far as pvp iteration servers like int/mvndi and crusalis. I have also never said I want him back?

 

Its not a vague post, im physically unable to call out names outside of the ones ive already mentioned because those names redacted are people who don't want drama/people investigating their business to blow things out of proportion. Out of respect, I will refrain from letting their names surface. I don't think people deserve to know the names of people who want to be anonymous, it doesn't make it a vague post. I have been as upfront and as detailed as I can be withholding some information such as identifying facts.

The point i made by bringing him up was to show there was faults, bias and pettiness within the “professional corporation” if you cannot see the point and only focus on what an internet terrorist he is idk can’t help you on that one but he’s a victim of being slapped with a tos tag and despite efforts made to change it, it went unturned for years. 

 

Both him and Harfleur are examples that they can get a tos wrong, and the only apologetic admin on my PERSONAL record was Alex who apologized and resolved things amicably with DPM during the reversal of his tos. I can only imagine how shitty Harfleur feels after losing years of his rp items let alone time with friends n made to have a tos tag and nothing was done to make things right. The world moved on as if nothing ever happened when it did? Really irks me.

 

I am going to say something and it isn’t a reach, but everyone knows what a TOS tag stands for, everyone knows what you are when you have that title. Can you imagine if his name ended up logged on the bot? Genuinely, why do people keep telling me that these sorts of things aren’t a big deal, we literally had people self harm over needing to make an appeal and you think they’ll get over being labeled as a pest for the last few years? Do you know how much you lose? How much has been lost. Why is there a drought on kindness and sympathy.  What if the next person falsely tos’d spent months trying to clear his name just to be met with silence despite him having the facts to prove otherwise, genuinely think for a minute about a persons mental state at that moment in time. What if someone killed themselves over this? What then? does it suddenly become a big deal only after something tragic happens? All of this can go away the minute i start receiving dms from individuals saying they’ve been responded to and told to whom they can contact to help sort out their appeals, give a short explanation as to why they were banned ect. It’s really all that matters to me, is response, proactiveness, mitigation and conflict resolution. I’m not asking and never stated there should be the publication of bans with the exception of a tos, I asked that they be responded to and not left with vague statements after months of no contact.

The trick is to get yourself banned preemptively for an obvious reason, that way you have something straightforward to apologize for later. If you are just ambiently annoying and antisocial the admins have to find a reason to ban you and they're going to read through your messages. Much easier to come back from, say, flyhacking than making fun of ppls moms online
