month*

I will hold back on voting for now.

Admins, please see RE: Indefinite Ban Request - DoctorZene for the original IBR.

wouldn’t posting about it make it worse…?

This post is more for those in the UK, but if you’re anywhere else your advice is still welcome!

I’m currently studying A Level Compsci, Maths and Chemistry. I aspire to study Software Engineering at University. Here is where my request comes in for advice:

I would like to prove that I am able to simply program, and I want to enhance my personal statement so it proves that I can do well as a software engineer. Would making a portfolio of my projects on a personal domain be worth it? I’ve got a personal domain and it wouldn’t be too much effort - it would also be something I can hand over to people to have a look into.

I really wanna do well for myself and I want to make sure I do things right. Any advice is appreciated!

Disclaimer: I am not writing on behalf of the EAO.

An investigation was conducted regarding the sanctions named by the other players commenting in this thread. This investigation has concluded and the appropriate action was taken against the admin involved.

To clarify exactly what I had looked into:

- The admin's actions over the last 2-3 weeks

- Punishments issued over the last 2-3 weeks

- Specific incidents, such as BlackfishOrca being sanctioned for using fireworks that had little to no effect

I would like to apologise for not responding to a lot of the comments in this thread as the matter did also involve me. I would like to also thank the OPs and admins that contributed to the investigation.

Finally, I would like to just ask that people go easy on all of our admins - there is a human on the other side of the screen and chances are if the admin's newly reinstated they have not adjusted to the new rules. This is the case here, for both the original reporter and the admin involved. If you have a concern, take it up with either the EAO or a Senior Admin.

Currently, if you’re not an MB, you can’t use coreprotect in MBW. This means that admins cannot use coreprotect in cases where it may be needed, such as MBW being breached (this has happened before).

/co i in the MBW should be opened up to everyone, regardless of role, too.

The suggestion is to put in a trial period for admins that have not been in service for more than a year. The ideal trial period would be a month. If this trial period is unsuccessful for the admin reinstating, they will either be retrained or expected to re-apply for admin.

Thoughts? This suggestion is extremely loose and I would like more ideas really, so this is more of an open discussion thread.

Out of interest, who actually told you to apply for MB? Not many people vote on these threads anymore, and the majority seem to be voting neutral.

I'm not going to extend on this matter much further, but I genuinely think it's a small group of individuals who actually have an issue with this sanction and won't bother following the right protocol to get the right people involved to deal with it. As well as this, this "pathetic" situation (as described by you) is genuinely a case of you as an OP struggling to deal with the current rules we have. In my eyes, you do not reserve the right to criticise an admin as an ex-admin, you only reserve that right as an OP.

Also, in no way did you "call out" the admin team "respectfully":

You classify the actions of Pharma and I as trigger-happy; I classify it as fair. I don't think you've updated yourself on the current rules at all, and frankly since you claim to have been an admin before, I'm surprised you actually got onto the team with the lack of composure you portrayed yesterday in chat.

I have forwarded your concerns to the EAO. They should be in contact with you soon.

Edit: Your ban is for 24 hours, by the way.

2 things before you post:

- Be mindful of others, some people may not get anything this year

- I don't celebrate Christmas but am curious as to what people have got/asked for

On a real note,

Thank you all for your support. I really was not expecting both the seniors and the community to vote unanimously. It’s been a long two years, and this is sort of a ‘TF Xmas’ present for me lol

Here’s to 2023

im gonna kill myself i cant suspend him now

I presume you’re not the only one who feels like this :^)

If you’re planning on reinstating, I suggest you interact with the community for at least a **month**. It’s what I think is best for you

Congratulations man

Would be nice if you gave some background as to who you were.

BlackfishOrca, or Cendrag's name history:

The user in question was permanently banned from the forum in 2020 as of this thread:

They were suspended for a set term in 2020 as of this thread:

lyicx bullied too much man #freelyicx

It was December 9, 2022, and Alco_Rs11, better known as Alco, was feeling the pressure. As the Executive Ban Manager for the TotalFreedom Minecraft server, it was his job to handle the presence of members on the server. Today was a special day, as it marked the end of the ban period for a number of players who had been banned in the past. These players were now eligible to rejoin the server, and the decision of whether to allow them back in was up to Alco. As the day went on, Alco received more and more messages from the banned players, asking if they would be unbanned. He knew that this was a big moment for them, and he wanted to make the right decision. Throughout the day, Alco spent a lot of time thinking about the potential consequences of his decision. He weighed the pros and cons, and considered the potential impact on the server and its community. Finally, as the clock struck midnight and December 10th arrived, Alco made his decision. He began to unbanned the players one by one, taking care to make sure that each player was ready to return to the server. Some of the players were overjoyed at being allowed to return, while others were more cautious and wary. But regardless of their reactions, Alco knew that he had made the best decision for the server and its community. As the night came to a close, Alco sat back in his chair, feeling a sense of relief and accomplishment. He had successfully managed the unbanning process, and the TotalFreedom server was stronger because of it. And he knew that he could continue to rely on the support of the community as he continued to make difficult decisions in the future.
