Indefinite Ban Request - billy7oblos

↩  Miasmus was banned for using the same exploit in a controlled setting just like you. It's really only fair.
I dont know the extent of how dangerous this is to the server but it does have weird properties that definitely set off red flags (maybe video or someone else could fill us in but thats up to them). Miasmus was of course upset by the ban but at least could take it and understand why, which is highly respectable imo. Neither of you are malicious players in my opinion simply people that made mistakes. But rules are rules, miasmus could accept that why cant you?

↩  Yurni This exploit is incredibly dangerous. It has the capability to irrecoverably reset any chunk it is used on and can chunkban anyone near it when it is deployed. Billy used this exploit at least 4 times on his plot (refer to my image in my reply to him) and all the neighboring plots are claimed and players likely use them. The ideal situation is that billy should of tested it outside of TF on his own localhost server if he really wanted to see what it can do.

↩  Alco_Rs11 Billy used this exploit at least 4 times on his plot

9 Total times to be exact. i counted the chunks

↩ @'billy7oblos' as stated, they were in vanish and i had no idea they were in render distance

Still crashed someone.

↩  Alco_Rs11 Well im not talking peer to peer dangerous. Talking about damage to data on the server. Also general rule of thumb is if you want to test exploits on TF get a staff member to supervise and approve of testing it, and also reporting the exploit ovsly

Video processed my replay mod recording to prove there was a chunkban of me involved.

↩ @'billy7oblos' i had no way of knowing they were there

So? You knew the exploit was dangerous. Doing something dangerous but not knowing that it might harm someone does not excuse you from what you did. Defending your case with "I didn't know" is pretty stupid here imo

Quote

↩ @'billy7oblos' false. again, even alco knew that no one was in my render distance

how does that disprove anything? you still have no other motive. if it didn't affect anyone/anything, then why do it?

Quote

↩ @'billy7oblos' implying that the item can crash the server

crashing can mean players too, and most likely this exploit can crash a server as well. also, why didn't you listen to steven?

Quote

↩ @'billy7oblos' false

dude, stop bullshitting. ive tested the exploit multiple times.

↩ @'billy7oblos' some examples of misinformation (and outright lies) used in the other threads against me:

which proves what? that in this thread everyone is lying too?

Quote

↩  erin Each and every single one of the plots around yours is claimed by a player who, if they teleported to their plot, would have crashed due to you messing around.

This is actually a good point to as how this wasnt done in pure private (Ex: rtp with tptoggle)

Quote

↩ @'billy7oblos' i had no way of knowing they were in render distance so its not on me that they crashed

"i did something that i knew was against the server rules and can possibly be damaging to another player's experience on the server, and it did happen to harm someone, but hey i didn't realize it so it's technically not my fault"
jesus fucking christ dude what kind of logic is this

↩ @'billy7oblos' This exploit chunk-banned me. I doubt you even looked at the logs and evidence I provided above which confirmed this fact before opening your mouth. I was kicked due to a corrupted chunk caused by this exploit. Stop trying to find petty ways to wiggle out of getting punished for actions you committed. This exploit clearly and rightfully falls under 1a and 1g given the effects it can do. You used it 4+ times so clearly there was malicious intent and it did crash me when you did it and I was in your plot.

To further prove that this exploit indeed crashed me, here is a kick message on my own controlled test environment using the same chunk wiper exploit compared to the message I got on TF. Same exploit, same type of message.

The issues with this scenario are:

• You used this exploit in the plotworld (which is supposed to be very condensed) in a way that affected other users' plots.
  Anybody with a plot nearby or anybody who is in the vicinity of your plot would be affected by the exploit. Since you placed the signs at the corners of your plot, it also had the side-effect of damaging multiple plots belonging to other users irrecoverably. This side-effect is a violation of section 1a of the Conduct Policy. If you had used the exploit in your plot at the center, this probably wouldn't be as big of a deal.

• The exploit you used works as both a chunk ban and a chunk-wiping exploit.
  This means that even though it only caused chunks from plots directly connected to your plot to be wiped, anyone close enough to the plot would also be affected by the exploit as they would be effectively chunkbanned from the server. The chunk itself can be loaded from far away, so the distance of who is actually affected by the chunk-ban part greatly exceeds what you think it is.

↩  @ggawdw I think you're misunderstanding the scope of the exploit he was using. It's a chunk-wiping exploit and it can irreparably reset a chunk that its used on, making it also an untraceable griefing tool and a major problem. A side effect of it is that it also chunkbans anyone near it.
