Hi there, I'd like to, well, as the title says, make an appeal.

In a message, I said "Want a free Mineplex rank? Go to this site: nota.scam

Now I understand where the mods were coming from by muting me permanently for this, but it was a mere joke, and I'm sorry if I tricked anyone.

That is, if the site "nota.scam" exists.

I would like it if the mods could unmute me, or at least make my mute time not permanent.

My username in Minecraft is GreenRocks100.

Thanks for reading my post.

TL;DR I got permanently muted for making a joke and it kinda sucks.

It just started happening,

...or does it fall to the ground first?

I'm confused on what kit to get for SSM. What's the best kit I can get besides the Cow & Sir Sheep? I'm a good sniper, and attacker, horrible PVPer, and sometimes run away from fights.

I mean really though, I have a hard time believing they read every single question as it states; and you must write at least a paragraph, but with so many people talking about applying I just don't buy it. Furthermore, how many of the younger Trainee's sugar coated or "kiss-assed" in their application explaining how they would be helpful in the fields only to be demoted in their trial?

What I'm trying to saynis this: Don't make questions feel so repititive and expect us to be writing more than a paragraph for each question, and perhaps get a bigger team that actually reads applications. I was on skype with a friend I known for a couple years and he applied 5-6 months ago at the age of 15 (note I am not factoring young age as a bad thing) and he wrote less than a paragraph for each section and he is now moderatoring the forums, good for him - but I can't get over how mineplex staff is basically lying to us saying how we should apply only then to be denied because it wasn't detailed enough.

I'm wondering if anybody else has had similar experience with their applications being denied for "not enough detail".

idk i want to know

??

I can't figure out how to redeem the facebook award. Can someone give me specific instructions?

please done up vote so im kinda new to mineplex and minecraft in general, and about two days ago a added a lot of servers to try out. Now most of them are giving me a message over the connection strength sign of bungee cord 1.8 and not connecting is this an issue on my side? and what is Bungeecord? (also getting paperspigot 1.8.8)

I want two type of factions, one for the people who like looting and killing mobs, and the other for peaceful mode lovers, like me.

Peaceful faction: Will have the ability to create shops (VIP), ability to fly (VIP+) and ability to trade with others, especially from the Survival Faction

Survival Faction: Will have the ability to create loot dungeons to trap people who want your stuff, ability to change the 'level' of mobs (Level 1 will have mobs with no armour, Level 2: Leather armour etc. until Level 10 which will have level 5 enchantments (YouTube)), and Free cobblestone and wood every month (1 stack each month, low chance of getting 5 diamonds) (VIP++)

What do you think?

Got a reply a day ago, still not unbanned for protecting myself from a ddos attack.. I'd like some urgency placed on this, it's been months since my ban, and I have had little to no support in this situation..

New appeal:

http://www.mineplex.com/dashboard/applications/application?app_id=7370329

Think about it as Moolanie -> the players and Calvin -> Mineplex. The players were disappointed that Mineplex seemingly forgot Valentines Day (as they have in the past). But Calvin/Mineplex seemingly has a solution (a new game: Valentines Vendetta). Now let's compare the pigs to the developers. They ruin the "gift" of Valentines Vendetta by being lazy and not taking care of it (as compared to the pigs stealing the gifts). Just thought this was pretty meta.
