                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Hey, I played on this server over a decade ago (~2012-13) and was banned for griefing a house and having it in my YouTube video. I would love to rejoin as I am no longer 9 years old and want to see how the community has been :) No griefing!! I promise. I just became a Patron rank at the time and don't know how ranks work now (or if the even exist) I used to be in the Enjin chat group and used to talk to ppl like House111 w the mooshroom skin. It was DEVASTATING when I got banned back then and I still think about it to this day, so would ya give me another chance all these years later? My name was cage_o_tron at the time of my ban.]]></content:encoded>

<p><strong>Ban Message:<br /></strong><em>you are banned from this server. reason: X-RAY, Appeal on www.finmine.com -Ael</em><strong><br /></strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Ban Duration:<br /></strong><em>a very long time I'm pretty sure its a permanent cause its been at least half a decade</em></p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Who Banned You?<br /></strong><em>Ael</em></p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Why were you banned?<br /></strong><em>X-ray, i was a really stupid kid and was so bad that i had to cheat and x-ray I'm extremely sorry</em><strong><br /></strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Have you been banned before?<br /></strong><i>i recall i was temp banned for like 2 days i think (this was like at least 8 years ago) i snuck into someone's base by jumping a wall had a look around but was accused of killing a pet i think they said it was a cow or sheep or something but i hadn't killed it and the ban was released early.</i></p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Why should you be unbanned?</strong></p>
<p>hello,</p>
<p>i want to start out by apologizing for my actions, i was xraying when i was probably around 11 -13 so probably around 6 years ago, i am truly embarrassed by my past actions, i was young and though that i was smart by cheating the system and i obviously realize now that it doesn't take a genius to install a texture pack. the reason for me coming back after being embarrassed of being banned is because of the sheer amount of nostalgia i have tied to this server, this server was my childhood and i cannot explain the amount of joy i had when i remembered the name and saw that it was still running. i hadn't realized  what i had until i was unbanned but i have never experienced such a beautiful community before or since i played this server, all i ask is for another chance to relive my childhood. i hope you are able to put yourself in my shoes and realize what i am being held from and hope you can consider unbaning for a chance to experience what my heart has been missing for such a long time.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>thank you for your consideration</p>
<p>-ZOGFY</p>]]></content:encoded>

<p><strong>Have you been banned before?<br /></strong><em>If so, how many times and why?</em><strong><br /></strong></p>
<p>twice before this I don't remember why those were both around a year ago</p>
<p><strong>Why should you be unbanned?<br /></strong><em>Please be thorough and<span> </span><span>courteous </span>your responses, as grammar and quality will be taken into account when reviewing your appeal</em></p>
<p>I realize X-raying for Deepslate with 2 other people was a waste of mine and your time, when instead of doing things the right way I chose to do them the easy way.</p>
<p>just because it quicker doesn't make it right.</p>]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings! If you are here that means you have probably received a ban on Finmine and would like to see it revoked. Perhaps you were banned for the wrong reasons, or you feel you've grown since and would like a second chance. In any case, we would be more than happy to review the situation and try to find a <span style="font-weight: 400">solution </span>that works for everyone!</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400"><span>To create your appeal, simply copy and paste the template below in a new topic under "Ban Applications," and fill it out to the best of your ability. Be as descriptive and accurate in your appeal as possible. The point of an appeal is to prove you do not deserve to be banned and it does not guarantee your ban will be lifted. Title your appeal something like "Steve's Ban Appeal," and make sure to mark your appeal as private (Check the Private Topic box). This is for your own privacy as well as to keep the discussion confidential between player and staff.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">We thank you for submitting a Ban Appeal! Please be patient while we take time review everything. Do not resubmit an appeal or all appeals will be immediately rejected and your ban will be extended. If your appeal for a perm ban is rejected once, please wait at least one month before re-appealing. Once Staff has made a decision, we will respond to your appeal with an official statement and discuss steps moving forward. </span><span style="font-weight: 400"></span></p>
