I would be willing to let them have another chance, but only with removing their building powers. I'm not sure if we have the capability to do that on our current set of mods, but I'm more convinced by actions and not words. If you want to stick around and actually want to be here, with the possibility of griefing removed, I'll be a little more convinced.

If you can't build what's the point? Remove damage mod perhaps?

It's because it shows dedication and a willingness to be a part of the server if one goes through that trial period of having to wait to build anything. If this "remove damage" mod is a different way to the same result, I'm fine with that.

Sorry but we just deal with our fair share of immature punks. And their threats. I don't know if if you and ezdev are with these morons or trying to start something with us but I'm not in the mood for any more stupidity. You were on, you blew it, you're a known troublemaker end of story. Sorry but you caught us at a bad time. Our patience is thin and our players are nice people that don't deserve all the drama we've been getting lately. I hope you understand.

I'm not for a second chance here just because there has been so many griefers lately. On an other note, DJUltra123 has been banned for stealing a gold block from me (plus i've found him digging into peoples buildings and such but none of it was big or seemed that grief-like) I could care less about the gold but I don't want him stealing from others so teh banhammer was swung.

So uh.. That's a no? Might aswell say good choice. We were going to hit your server real hard if you gave us another chance. And for the alt thing.. We won't do that. Too much work.

Nothing personal, It's just really fun. Most of the times the damage is reversable so pretty much minor damage. We get a good video to entertain people and ourselves so that's why we do this. And we are aware of the fact that we will get banned with the characters we use. We're a bit smarter than the average 10 year old griefer out there.

EDIT

Oh and I never left a threat. I just tried to be honest.

Let's go over a few things... Because the whole "I'm a clever griefer." routine, you suck at it.

You were never a threat to them, but more like an annoyance that they had to deal with. Probably because they were as tired of your lame excuses and threats as I am. Your threats are meaningless, as many have told you. You aren't cool, and you CERTAINLY don't have sleeper agents at every corner waiting to grief everyone, like you would want us to think. Some of us do our best to love everyone, like it has always been instructed in the Bible, but you are sure making it hard for everyone to love you, who tries.

Realize that there are bigger things in life then making everyone miserable just to put it on some lame youtube account. You will feel better yourself, and more people will like you. Haven't you ever heard the expression "You attract more flies with honey, then you would with vinegar?" Being nice, it isn't so bad...

At least Peanutcat's attitude is better than Firebolt's.

For what it's worth.

You know, I almost understand the fun of griefing.

A couple months ago we regenerated the world on my gaming club's private server and I took a backup of the world to export projects to be imported into the new world. Once that was done and the world up and running again, I took a copy of the world, loaded it into my local MC game, and had a great time blowing everything up in creative mode with TNT blocks.

But...

It was a backup, which meant nobody's actual work got damaged. It also got old. After a few spectacular TNT shows (The ruins of my skull fortress looked kinda cool) I deleted that copy of the world and that was it. Over the long run (and by "long run" I mean anything more than about an hour) building is way more fun than destroying, even when it's harmless as in a copy like I did.

When you mess up someone's project, you waste their time. The more damage you do, the more of their time you've wasted. Why is that fun?

Usually people tend to seek for extreme reactions from the people that are being griefed. Especially in teenagehood you test the limits of your parents, society, friends etc, and may find pleasure in the attention you get. It is much harder to work hard and honest and gain attention through that, than by going the broad and easy path. Groups such as Team Volition can get up to a million views on their Minecraft griefing videos, and gain a large fan base for ridiculing their targets.

But the following I would suggest you, Peanutcat, and your friends, consider very carefully. I have no interest in setting stumblestones in your path and wish you well in your future endeavors, but having searched you lads up I need to warn you. You have currently set your privacy settings in practically every internet service to such, that anybody associating your nicknames (such as Minecraft account) with certain internet profiles (Twitter, Facebook, ...) can easily find your real life names and pictures and correlate your real life self to your internet self. This is particularly dangerous if you indeed plan to embark on a journey of griefing or similar activities. You should acknowledge, that some strangers in the internet will not be nice and understanding. Remember, that internet databases even offer backups of past text-based content, so once you associate certain information you may never be able to get them out from the web. So closing down an account might not be enough.

It is in general good to maintain a healthy standard of being anonymous when surfing the web, especially when you're relatively young still. Again, this is just a friendly advice from me, but I hope you will take it seriously.

1. We know, Most of the times all the damage gets reversed like I said. 2. I never said a threat here. 3. I don't think I'm cool and I'm not trying to get anyone think we have sleeper agents at every corner waiting to grief, we don't and I never said we did.


And to CCGR, On thoose servers it's promoted like you said. It's kinda excpected which means there's no fun reactions such as "I GOT GRIEFD OMG!!!!" or "I WILL FIND WHERE YOU LIVE! AND I WILL KILL YOU!".

And Syksy, I have been thinking about doing that fo a while. Might aswell tighten up now then.


Oh and one last thing

You can pretty clearly tell that Firebolt was a Avolition fanboy :p They hated Reddit just as Avo does. He looked kinda pathetic tbh. Do I look as pathetic as him?
