  • Sperience - Ban Appeal

    1. object, wait it out, its just 24h
    2. alright, let me get this clear, you and flob were banned for making the unfunny german murder rail road playground place and got banned by red, i don't see why you didn't learn from this and know that you shouldn't be doing any of this kind of stuff, i seriously don't understand what's funny and hilarious about millions of people dying, seriously, what's so funny?? can i laugh too??

    and again, im being aggressive, but its seriously the only way i can say it as i am currently sleep deprived

    ↩  erin well yes, being really loyal isn't that expected but for an ATTACK against the forum? admins should be really really fine to reveal information about it


    and about the help of red, i really don't support what he's done and im not promoting his actions, as he's a friend of mine i decided to send out his rant about this


    and i expect what you're about to say is "i recommend not being friends with a rule breaker", even though it's very unlikely you'd say that, i really don't care about who i'm friends with, as long as they're not an asshole i'm fine

    "minimal information"


    my view on this is admins should be able to be loyal to the server and you clearly weren't, if the "minimal information" was actually some good and helpful information you should've said it, as you're an ADMIN, you handle this stuff and take it seriously


    i'm not against what you've done but i do really think it's kind of dumb
    sorry if i was too harsh or aggresive, i can't really say it in any other way


    edit: quoting erin, "All in all, best wishes for the future. You’re smart with this computer shite and you’ll do well in life."

    An update on my situation.

    Hello,
    So, as you might already know, I've been suspended from TotalFreedom in its entirety because apparently I broke "UK law". I haven't broken any law, as I haven't participated in the forums attack itself, and all I've done is hide information that I had a very minimal amount of.


    Anyways, the situation is a mess, and I don't see how I should've been suspended, let alone indef-banned.


    I have been thinking a lot about this, and I have a feeling I might quit TotalFreedom in its entirety, even if I would get unbanned. The reason for that is because the community just feels simply unwelcoming in some regard, and there are other projects and stuff I have to do, including this website as well.
    I've already pretty much ruined my reputation in the community, and if I wanted to try again, I don't see how my reinstatement would be accepted, if I do so decide to do that.


    The simple nature of the problem being so ridiculously oversimplified to people means that people are blind to the details that I think matter. This means that people think wrong of me and probably want me just gone out of the community, and think bad of me. In reality, I'm just a person like everyone else, and I have feelings. I'm not a robot that breaks everything no matter what. I realize that I have greatly fucked up my reputation, and I don't see how I could continue on the community.
    It's very likely that I will leave the community as a whole and continue onto other projects.


    The problem that I have with TotalFreedom is that it's unaccepting of even the most minor of things. Like, if I decided to go on kaboom and chunkban a TF member that I didn't even know was a TF member, they can complain about me because they know that I'm a TF staff, and get me in trouble. Like, it's stupid how much responsibility you must have and how much dedication you need for TotalFreedom.
    The whole situation I'm in is incredibly shitty, and I don't see how I could continue being on TF with these conditions. What I wanted to push with this, is a full on reform. I'm pissed at how much shit is happening with TotalFreedom, like, IBRs were literally PUBLICLY LEAKING IPS. Like, if you were just a random person just messing around, it's stupid to be IB'd and have your IP leaked because of it. Thankfully, at least that was fixed.
    I feel like there needs to be a reform on how permissions are handled with TF administrators. I think the permissions need to be a little evened-out, as it's stupid how some actually useful commands are just not allowed. Only execs have full permission over Freedom-01. But they don't even have OP on the hub anymore. I mean, that could be good, but it's still a little bit of a problem, as I think some features are genuinely useful and great for admins. Like, /data. I'm 100% sure if there is some kind of subcommand that could be harmful, it could be removed with NM (NetworkManager).
    It's awful how easy it is to get yourself suspended as well. Like - all I did is hide just a bit of information that I had a very minimal amount of. It's stupid. Let alone getting indef-banned for that. I think suspensions should also have some kind of reform, as I don't think I should've been indef-banned for this. Apparently I collabed with "rogue players", but I actually weren't part of the attack. No attack was done on my part and I haven't collaborated on the actual attack. All I have done is hide very minimal information on this attack.
    The fix is so stupidly basic that I just don't see the Atlas Management Team as capable of actually taking care of the server properly, I don't even think that they know what they're doing. If a fix as basic as ONE LINE OF CODE can actually be that hard to do, then I'm sorry. I don't see how you're capable of doing your job.
    I know an actual friend who is capable of doing all of this and actually knows what they're doing, and I bet they alone could handle the entire Atlas Management Team's job. And Ryan is just plain irresponsible - yes, he does have a job. But that doesn't mean he has a good excuse to not take care of other stuff. If you own a server, you better take care of it properly. If you can't do it, then ask someone else. This problem should've never happened at all - in fact, if people actually knew what they were doing, I think there wouldn't have been exploits like what happened with NM and the forums attack. If nobody were to step up, the forums would've probably been dying for longer. Imagine this was an actual serious attacker. They're lucky it wasn't.


    Anyways, enough on this rant lmao. Now, on where I'll actually be going if I quit TF.

    Where will I be going?

    As I've said just now, I'm thinking of leaving TF. Yes, that's right. I've been an old member of the community, and I've been on there for a long time.
    So, what's the deal? I wanted a reform. I'm essentially just sick of this mess that is TF. I've tried to hide the pain, but as you all saw, I wanted to do something about it. Again, just to make it clear once again, I was not part of the attack in any way, shape or form. I only hid minimal information about the attackers and the attack itself.
    Eventually, I decided to just say "screw it" and risk my rank over it. I knew this was going to happen deep inside, but I did it anyways. I mean, at least y'all got reformed IBRs. But problems are still there. So, I thought - why shouldn't I just leave TF entirely.
    Thankfully, some people have the same mind. There's a new project coming up, I will not leak anything about it. What I will say is that it will be way more refined than TotalFreedom, and once the first version of it releases - I will most likely make a post about it if the creator does agree. They're good people, and I don't see how you could dismiss them.
    Once this project does arrive, I will join the staff team once I'm able to.
    I've been working on a project called Redstonium. As there's a very minimal amount of redstone servers at the moment, at least good ones, I've decided on taking it into my hands. Thankfully, there is another person to help me with this project. I will not reveal anything about them, as I'm not sure if they want anything revealed.
    Some people on TF have been lucky enough to be part of another server, SMPRed. This server is a vanilla SMP server. It's pretty dead at the moment, but I'm looking forward to revive it once I can. It's a hard job maintaining this many things at once, but I have a feeling I could pull it off.
    So, I've told you some places where I could be ending up. As always, any new projects and things and stuff like that will be posted on this website, which is also where I'll be for the time being, updating stuff and working on projects. This is why I really wanted to push the Articles feature, which is why, even if it is still in very very early stages, I've decided on using it.
    Anyways, that's pretty much it for where I'll be going and what actually happened to me.
    If anything new happens on this situation, as always, an article will be made on this website.


    TL;DR - I'll most likely be quitting TF for good, even if I do get unbanned. All new updates will be going on this website. (thank god I had the right mind to make this article system just in case)
