Its hard to tell since, firstly, I'm old and secondly, its about 3 pixels wide.... but I still think your first pic looks cute!!

That sounds so incredibly frustrating! Did you end up getting it sorted yet?

I love the wolf!! I might have to build something to suit it next wipe

Hey there Dr Jeff! It's great to have you I hope you're finding the servers a nice addition to, or break from, your day-to-day. - Samakeen

Thanks for reaching out. As discussed in chat, whilst you were banned from our servers in 2021 for a very unsavoury bag rename, it was not our servers you were playing on in this instance. Thanks, Samakeen

Thanks for appealing. In this case we have decided we will allow this appeal - but @Shadow_please remember this is a one time reversal. Any further system errors will totally be entirely your fault and definitely wont be rescued again. - Samakeen

Nice work! I'm sure the videos will work better for some than written guides. We also have a section for Tips & Tricks which includes all sorts of guides! You could always post your walk through videos in there for people to see as well

Sorry this happened to you! I have passed this on your servers admin team. In the meantime, please do not pick up / remove any of the boxes/furnaces in question. Thanks, Samakeen

This is.... haunting Congrats to everyone!!

Thank you for taking the time to provide this additional context to your request. While your behaviour at the time is something we do not feel is appropriate to have in our servers, and words such as what you used, are not welcome in any context - I am also willing to acknowledge that it has been 2 years since the ban was applied, and can see a genuine attempt at growth and desire to rejoin the community. This in mind, we will provide a second chance. The ban will be lifted once 72 hours have passed, but it will remain on your record. There will be no additional chances as this experience should encourage you to change how you speak in our servers and to abide by the rules. Take a few minutes before rejoining, and refresh yourself on the rules to avoid any chance of breaking them. If you are unclear on any of them, or aren't sure what is permitted, reach out to the staff and we'll be happy to clarify them for you. (Please read the splash page as well, as each server type has slight variations regarding specific features of those servers.) Welcome back. Samakeen.

Thank you for appealing. With the current cancel culture in the world, racism in all aspects of society is being closely scrutinized. While we do understand that it still heavily permeates music, comedy, movies, and other media, it is something we do not feel is appropriate to have in our servers. Words such as what were used on your account, are not welcome in any context. This is plainly stated on the server's loading screen before you enter. Additionally, this is also stated on Facepunch's Terms of Service. The ban will not be lifted. We wish you the best of luck in your future gaming endeavours. Samakeen.

In my defence, drunk Sama cant read real good

I get so sad when the little candle is gone

Thank you for coming back with honesty & appealing. Please consider that words such as what you used, are not welcome in any context. Do take some time to review the above resources that you can explore to learn more. That being said, you will get a second chance. Just one. The ban will be lifted, but it will remain on your record. There will be no additional chances as this post should encourage you to change how you speak in our servers and to abide by the rules. Take a few minutes before rejoining, and refresh yourself on the rules to avoid any chance of breaking them. If you are unclear on any of them, or aren't sure what is permitted, reach out to the staff and we'll be happy to clarify them for you. ● No raiding, griefing or looting of any kind. ● No mic or chat spam, player disrespect, politics, racism or harassment. ● No camping loot rooms, monuments or any highly concentrated areas. ● You may build in caves but you must ensure safe passage for other players. ● No blocking water ways, building around monuments or large areas of unused land. (Please read the splash page as well, as each server type has slight variations regarding specific features of those servers.) Welcome back. (Please bear in mind, this is a one-time ban reversal. No further rule infractions of this nature can happen. Thank you!) Samakeen.

Thank you for taking the time to appeal again. Previously, you have been advised by Leadership that any further appeals would be closed without further comment, however, I'm genuinely glad to hear you feel you have taken steps to improve how you interact with others so I am responding as a matter of courtesy. I would remind you of the nature of your initial bans, and the many chances you were already given to make changes at the time. This ban will remain in place as stated in the last rejection from Leadership. Best wishes with your future gaming endeavours, Samakeen.
