Uin153 Reset Appeal

Reset by: Alator
Time of Reset:No clue some time between 4 PM and 5:30 PM
Reason for Reset: Digging blocks near a spawner I think?
Your story: I was sitting near a spawner, and dug a little pit for them to fall into, and from what I know, you are alowed to have a spawner as long as they can still attack you. What I was doing was letting the zombies build up so that I can kill them, but I was letting them still get to me by making a staircase, and then I would fight the mobs on a 15x15 platform. Apprently that is illegal?



1st Edit: We had them falling into a pit, then were digging a staircase when we were going to kill them, its not my fault you got there when they were spawning, and not when they were getting killed. I wasn't even getting exp from the thing, I just made it for townies who thought that 2 whole exp was better then standing around at night killing the 1 mob that spawns every hour due to the mass amount of server lag. I was already master in the classes that I wanted, I didnt need any more exp


2nd Edit: I have never used the spawner, as stated in my first edit, So its not mob spawner abuse, 2nd, We were spawning them, then digging a staircase into the open area so that the 40-50 zombies will climb out of the hole, and be able to attack us, making it perfectly legal, we were not fighting them while we were dropping them into a hole.

When the staff inspected it, there were approximately 50-60 zombies trapped in a pit. They had no way out, and could be attacked without fear of retaliation. The mob spawner area was approves by Angyles in a previous form. The way it was modified to would not have been allowed.

 

[Alator]

The mob spawner room in its previous version was approved by Angles because it was completely open and players had nowhere to hide. When you changed it, obs were being corralled, protecting the player from the ones that spawned while they (if they even did) lured one or two up. The ones in the pit that weren't drawn out could not hit the player, therefore the design was illegal. I'd think the sign on the entrance that said "This has been approved by Angyles" would be enough to ask the original designer or even Angyles again.

Mob spawner abuse always results in some kinds of level loss. Based on your core file, you could of been up for a 1-month ban, but we just removed you levels instead.

 

[Alator]

After consulting with staff, and based on your replies, we can not prove without a doubt that the spawner was being used illegally. Your player file has been restored to the point when I backed it up last night. However, due to the possibility of future abuse and lag/stealing mobs from the surface, the spawner will remain destroyed. Next time, please ask a staff member to confirm any modifications around a mob spawner prior to use.
