Dear Brohoof Admin Staff,

 

 

     If you guys remember me, my in-game username is Swimchamp565, and I am known on the forums as 'Delta'. I was banned back in 2013, about mid-July, and it was meant to be permanent since it was my third ban. The first ban was because of multiple suspensions that dealt with accidental griefs in the Equestria world, the second was due to a alternate profile that I made into Builder status, and the last was because of multiple times in the forum roleplay sections I posted suggestive material. I stayed banned, and was even banned from the forums, not only because I was not a player loyal for Brohoof, but also because I came back multiple times with alternate accounts the month after my ban. Since, I have stayed away from Brohoof, mostly because I knew I wasn't welcomed and that my behavior was unacceptable. A few months after my ban, a old friend came to me saying that after asking one of admins, there was a very slim chance that if I came back much later (Nearly a year) and tried again, I would possibly be unbanned. Here I am, again, presenting a appeal so that I can be accepted into what was once one of my favorite communities that is a hybrid of MLP and Minecraft. I'll go through how I changed, that I know what I did wrong, accept they are wrong, pledge not to do them again, and also explain why I returned.

 

         I guess I'll start with how I changed, and I'm not going to pull real-life events into this because that's not what matters. In the last year, I have found better ways to conduct myself in internet communities, such as Brohoof.com. Where I used to let my emotions get the best of me, getting in stupid and pointless arguments, or just not using my head at all in many situations,  I have figured out to think before I act, as well as realize to not let my emotions effect my behavior. I have also matured, which with that comes multiple better ways of behaving and conducting myself unlike how I have in the past. With these attributes, I am much more well fit to be here, instead of a problem the admins have to constantly deal with. I have to say, being more mature honestly would of answered all my problems in the past, and now that I have grown better as a member (To many communities, not only brohoof), I can say that they won't happen again.

 

        In the past, I've done 3 things that have gotten me banned. The combination of these things have made me a troubled player that admins looked down on. Each one alone, I would of been unbanned, but the problem is that a combinations of all three of these bans has deemed me unworthy to be playing here. My first ban was due to 3 suspensions, all of which I was banned for the carelessness of not cleaning up after myself. During either RP's, or a accidental mouse push one night, I wouldn't replace the blocks I destroyed in freebuild or Equestria. After three suspensions I was banned, and I have to admit I was let off relatively easy from it by Tsar, but the next, not so much. My second ban was due to me creating a alternate minecraft account named 'XForces255', which was bad enough alone, but what got me booted was turning that profile in a Builder. As soon as they connected the IP's, I was banned, and it took me a long time to come back. When I did come back from my second ban, my builder status was taken away, forever. My third and final ban was after a fight with a user named Izzy, in a roleplay on the forums. Not only did I show major immaturity with fighting with all the members of the roleplay, but the reason we were fighting is because I was exhibiting suggestive, NSFW material with a user named Luigi. I tried to appeal, but it wasn't heartfelt, and it was my third strike that ended my time here forever.

 

       As I said earlier, I tried returning 2 times after being banned. The first was under the name 'VictorTheFriendly', and it was only for the forums. I tried roleplaying again, but my IP was seen. The second was under the name 'Atled' (Which, is Delta backwards), and it was to put critical input into a topic in roleplay discussion. That made me forum banned, but after more than a year, I have moved to a new home, and with a new home has come a new router with a new address. So I have come here, to apologize truthfully. This is why I was banned, and how I've come to better understand each thing

Why I came back:

 

          Like I said, a user told me after speaking with a admin, that there was a slim chance I could return if I returned with a good case. That was obviously not the only reason I returned. I returned because I don't like leaving on a bad note. I don't like people seeing me as a trouble making little troll, who has not even the slightest bit of wit or maturity. I didn't come back because I was 'bored' (as I said in one appeal), I came back because I truly appreciated being a brony and a Minecrafter, not only alone, but with all my friends at Brohoof. I knew that I changed, and I knew that there was a chance that you guys would see past all I have done and realize that I want to redeem myself. If I do come back, I want to make the things that I have done wrong, right. I want to help lead clean, fun, and argument free roleplays, as well as give advice to others, and build in this new Equestria 5 without slipping up again. I think I have the ability to show my good side on the internet, and want it to make good friends with the members and admins. Last, but definitely not least, I want to come back because I regret all I have done, and truly love this website.

 

Conclusion:

 

       I was banned in mid-July, after a series of bans that lead me to be away for almost a year. I have grown more as a person, know how to handle myself better on the internet, and believe with all my heart that I am ready to return as a clean, friendly, and contributing player. Speaking of my heart, deep down in it, I know I am sorry and can embrace what I've done wrong completely, realizing this after a year of thinking about it. With growing as a person, I've become more mature, and know that being more mature can handle all my problems with the right mindset. I thank you for reading this, if you read it all the way through, and hope you consider letting me return. If not, I can understand why. I have lost my trust, my love, and my tolerance, but I hope I can re-earn it and be given a final chance after so much time. Thank you, again, and I hope to see you in the future.

 

Thank You,

Swimchamp565

While this is indeed a well-written ban appeal, I'd be more inclined to accept it if you hadn't written another long ban appeal that was rejected, and responded with this:

So forgive me for thinking that your polite and civilized demeanor might be hiding some less courteous emotions.

That was something that was written a year ago, a reply that I made thinking I'd never return. Instead of doing it out of fun like you may think, that post was more out of anger of being denied with having no chance of getting anything other then that. As you can see I regret ever making that post, back when I made it I was obviously a lot worse of handling things.

 

Do realize that I made that appeal right when the wound was fresh. What I hoped fixed this appeal now, was time, especially since I have had so long to think about it. I promise you that I have changed from, that, as I said I don't want to be annoying, immature, troll, and right there you have one of the purest examples of it. The thing is, I have no way to prove that the appeal I wrote here is heartfelt, I can tell you all I want, but the only way to prove it is to actually be on the server. That's sadly the truth. Maybe something along the lines of being on a very thin thread incase I do show similar behavior.

 

I am sorry for ever making that post, the funny thing was it wasn't even very fitting. Again, it was something I made not only thinking I'd never come back, but out of anger. That's something I won't show, for sure.
