Title: If you have gotten banned, can you still get a high rank?
Post by: SJ321987 on March 11, 2012, 11:34:47 pm
Hi,

A friend of mine named bloop_bloop asked me if you have gotten banned,can you still become trusted or a mod?

Thanks,

SJ321987

Well it might take some time, Yes and it will kinda ruin your chances a bit. But if your a High rank and you got banned then you will lose that rank and be a Member.

If there is a valid reason for you to get banned, it would definitely cripple your chances of becoming a staff member - I have never seen it happen and most probably never will.

With tobs. Not gonna happen. Generally banned members do not Apply for staff. Heck they probably won't get trusted

Happened before on classic, couple of times. People change you know, you can't reject them just because they made some mistakes in the past.

This. There are some Operators who accidentally griefed and got banned, but they became operators in the end by proving themselves.

*Cough* I was pro.

Anyway, the point is that you can get a high rank, it just means you have to stand out more from the rest of the crowd.

There are SMP moderators who have been banned. I can think of one. Tell your friend you can get ranked up. It will take much more time and more trust.

I was banned because of a glitch with the /ban mod, and I'm trusted now.  :)

My personal opinion is this. You got banned and they were nice enough to let you back on the server. Just play the game and try not to get banned again. What happens happens and we shouldn't dwell on the past for too long. you could be forgiven however it will take time.

not sure if people remember, but relkeb nearly got banned as a guest :P
his brother was on his account, had a hitler skin and built swastica's and ran around trolling everyone.
later relkeb explained it was his brother. hes now an admin. if something bad happens, it doesnt mean all chances of getting
a high rank are ruined. you just have to show you will follow the rules.

Of course, its me.....

Alright. Conspiracies? hmm....I'll give it a shot. Prepare for epic failure! Huzzah! :P

Outrageous conspiracy theory attempt (I don't even understand it. You know what, don't even try to make sense of the following...): What if Opticraft was indeed created by Opticalza, but the original Opticalza left and a clone Opticalza from the future, who just happened to be the only one on the server, got promoted from guest to Owner.  Oh, and did I mention the original Opticalza is a bad-ass rebel, fugitive leader in the future, who attempted to assassinate an insanely, crazy world dictator with the hope of once again restoring peace in the world. The assassination attempt failed, and he was forced to hide in the shadows but he continued to train other rebels for an eventual rebellion war. The guy was and still is apparently the #1 fugitive on the world's fugitive list but has so far not been found in over 10 years, which by then, his rebel army has massively grown. However, Opticalza feared the power of the dictator would be too great and so clone Opticalza was created and sent to the past to go fix a mistake that may very well have caused the future he lived in at the time. Clone Opticalza was sent to prevent the abandonment of the server , the very mistake that Opticalza believed was the main reason for that broken future. Therefore, the Opticalza we know now is actually a clone from the future sent for the sole purpose of keeping Opticraft alive, instead of abandoning it like it originally was. Clone Opticalza, has also therefore, changed the space-time continuum slightly. I sure hope that no evil, carnivorous, aliens from different dimensions nor any insane, futuristic dictators come pouring in from the potentially massive hole that was ripped in our space-time continuum....Or whatever the hell happens when you change the freaking past.... In the end, I bet you think Opti is pretty badass now, anyways. ;)

Not so outrageous conspiracy theory attempt: What if Opticraft was actually created by Notch himself but he decided to focus on Minecraft more. Opticalza was one of the few guests that had somehow gained access to the server and Notch's trust in a highly experienced programmer caused him to be promoted to owner. Since then, Opticalza builds on making Notch's original classic server the best there is, with the silent support/approval of a "guest account" notch, who visits occasionally. Ya that makes sense...I guess......Maybe I'll stick with that.....nah...the first theory was loads better....there's freaking clones and aliens in it.....Seems way more legit.

Meh....Good enough, Psyko? :P

Lol  ;D How long did that take you?
The original 2 stories were done in like 5 minutes. Then I decided that the first story needed more outrageousness. I came back roughly 15 minutes after I wrote the original because I felt it needed more. So when I added in the story of the future, that took me about 10 more minutes roughly.

I can be a slow typer at times, though... ;D

Of course, when I was writing the story, I didn't actually care how much time I spent on it. I cared more about how well the story was written :P
