lack... of... grammar... my eyes!
From what I gather, you're still clinging onto this story. Okay, let's say that this story is true (It's a hypothetical, a "What-if" scenario).
What if what 99codeman99 is saying is true?
Well, that doesn't change the fact that you BROKE A FACTION RULE as well as a SERVER RULE. Surprise or not, you NEED permission from city owners. You still haven't explained this. Don't say the surprise... read carefully. You broke a rule... what compelled you to do so? It wasn't the surprise, I can tell you that.
If you had only broke the stone underneath, I would believe your story. Considering you broke a glowstone on the complete other side of the fountain, I find the story a "little" hard to believe.
"but i am no longer liying " At least you admit to lying before, I'll give you that.
Again, I'm not trying to target you or anything. I'm just stating things from how I see it. I'm actually surprised a mod has let us speak this long without intervention, however I can also see why they are doing this.
Something to add:
XCoaster (after I joined mumble, about 10pm PST until about 11pm PST) and I were on mumble. I wanted to do a thorough check of my city, and he teleported to me. You know how big the protection I have is, and you know that it's actually all one mega build (the adventure series I advertised a long time ago). So we literally checked EVERY building. If I found something off, I asked him to check. There was an instance where a glowstone was missing. It turns out there was a button near it and the new plugin turns glowstone into glass. So, checking every building that does not belong to you, we find that you only messed with the fountain area. So I asked him to screen shot the times at which you did it. Then, I checked the other side of the fountain, and saw the stone broken. Here's the conversation (paraphrased). 1 represents me, 2 represents XCoaster.
1 Whoa, wtf come look at this, there's more broken. Did 99 do this?
2 let me see. yeah, he did.
1 let me break it and replace this all with stone. WTF!? Look at this! There's a pathway. I think he was trying to get into the vault in the fountain.
2 wtf, why would he do this?
1 there's a room here
2 let me check it all. Yup, 99 did it.
Again, paraphrased because I can't be expected to memorize an entire verbal conversation. If you need him to comment here, I'll gladly message him or you can have a mod message him. We were honestly astonished that with where your story was (you were going into the fountain to get something, you said) that you'd build a little room. Seriously, think about this:
First it was that I told you to get stuff out (a lie). Then you plugged everything up with cobblestone (a lie, because it's against human nature to do MORE work than needed when you had the intent to replace the glowstone). Then you said you weren't going into the faction, but beneath to place a chest for me as payment for work (if that was the case, you could easily place it above ground in front of my house with a sign), THEN it was that you want to make it a huge secret and all decorated and stuff... in which case you could have built ABOVE GROUND. See, if you built above ground I wouldn't have made the /pe. I would have been like "Cody, wtf is this why the hell did you build this here? I had plans for what to build in the city, I told you." That would be the end of that. But nope, you change your story each time we make a counter argument. In addition, to the story you are sticking with, you could easily place a chest above ground instead of destroying my pride and joy. That fountain is my signature work on this server, and you go to destroy it... Sure it was only one glowstone and 3 stone, as well as digging a path and room underneath it. Still, you see my point, yes?
If you don't see my point, here it is. You're still lying. You've lied so much, and admitted to it, three times and now this fourth one is even more insane than the others. Again, no offense to you. I'm not trying to hurt your feelings or harm your reputation. It's just, honestly... every time XCoaster or I added more evidence, you changed the story. Things aren't adding up, in my opinion.
If left to my decision, I see no reason to unban you because you've proven yourself to be untrustworthy by destroying property as well as lying about it numerous times even with evidence against you. However, it's not my place.
On the hypothetical that mods decide to unban you: These are my terms I am giving to you. From the moment the ban is lifted, I'll give you 72 hours to vacate all of your belongings. If I am not online to add you back to the region, you'll have 72 hours from when I add you back on. I will message you 24 hours, via the forums both on your wall and a private message, about the exact time that I'll be adding you back on (that's if I don't add you back IF you are unbanned). ANY destruction of city property will result in another report, and probable ban again (they always ban for grief). You'd be allowed to take YOUR items and your items only. You'll be exiled from Soshiki (the city, in case mods are wondering), the Organization (the faction I own and run), as well as blacklisted from the faction (the faction will have nothing to do with you). I'm sorry I'm saying this, however those are the rules I put for the faction. I will follow the rules for everyone. I lost a good friend for the same exact thing (not same exact, but similar) that you did. You were also a good person, and still are, I think. However, you just kept lying and lying and lying, and this fourth one you're most probably lying about as well (since the story doesn't add up). I can't have someone like that in my faction, please understand.
I'll leave the rest for mod/admin or whomever is responsibility to do. If anyone has any further questions for me, feel free to ask. I'll give 100% cooperation.
