  • I've a little concern in regards to what happened this evening in server chat. From what I gathered a build you made resembled a swastika and this is not the first time this has happened.

    That being said, that's the only thing I really know for certain and I lack context. Do you mind explaining further before I vote?

    Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.

  •   erin jump built a note block arrangement that strongly resembled a swastika. he then acknowledged that it was a swastika and I gave him a smite. I didn't want to, but I had to follow protocol. I apologized 3 times and tried to move on from this. Jump then opt to persist on the matter. I was pushed to a point were I was upset, and in retrospect I probably should have just left, but I made a promise as an admin to abide by the rules. Im sorry jump that it happened, but I stand by my point. Please just don't make swastika like builds man I hate having to yell at you bc I know your a good person.

  •   erin i built a very space efficient noteblock machine to play a simple 2-5-1 musical progression to see how chords sound in minecraft (been thinking about doing noteblock music for a while). it could potentially allow for 8 notes per beat in a looping cycle. when i finished all that i wanted, i had it a configuration that played 5 notes per beat. i jokingly noticed a VERY SLIGHT resemblance to a swastika and mentioned in chat (intentionally spelling swastika wrong to portray the sarcasm in what i said). i was promptly smited for building a swastika and went on to argue about the wrongful nature of the punishment with helium. when questioned, i put Ael up to the challenge of finding a smaller volume design than what i had constructed for the same purpose, to which they were unable.

    any resemblance a player may perceive was entirely unintentional and i am (as anybody on the server can attest to) unwilling to be wrongfully punished; which is why the argument broke out. to see the design the coordinates in the flatworld are -2410, 60 -7168

      heliumpluto strongly resembled a swastika.

    if you believe it STRONGLY resembles a swastika then i cant help change your mind. but as i explained, it is difficult to find a better design for the machine. also you never apologized, as anybody who wants to browse the fs1 discord channel can attest to.

  • yeah i was watching the situation in server chat dude and while it may have been a mistake your handling and overall mannerisms in dealing with the situation made you come across as kind of a dick. all you needed to do was go 'yeah i see what youre saying' and move a few blocks but you did this whole thing about telling the admin what their job is and all

    i vouch regardless, cuz ateotd this is minecraft and im not gonna be objecting cuz i dont like the way you talk, but that's just my pov on things. I'd like a source on the 'this was done multiple times' thing though.
