Yesterday, I had finally finished subzoning the Silvercliff apartments and I stated in public chat that the rooms were open for reservation and if anybody wanted one to contact me so that I could write them down and set them up. It was meant to be a statement to the public, and it was not necessary to respond in the extremely rude manor that erikteen did. He proceeded to call Silvercliff "bs," which I'm sure everybody knows is an abbreviation for an extremely offensive word. He stated that "if you want to see a real town, look at Highmoor. Sorry but lwks town is better." I completely agree that Highmoor is an amazing town, but that was an unnecessary and rude comment when directed towards the co-owner of Silvercliff. Afterwards, he proceeded to tell me in public chat that he "hated me." Which isn't something that needs to be said in public chat. I was also informed that recently he has been bragging to others after I log off about how much he hates me. So, the screenshots are provided below. I know this is not the only incident erikteen has bullied or harassed another player, and I feel like this kind of immaturity should not be tolerated on this server. I am putting this request up so that the staff can do with it what they please, but I request at least a temporary ban for this sudden public outburst and use of implied cuss words. It was immature, hurtful, and unnecessary. Also I would ask that staff look back on erikteen's past temporary bans and appeals before making the final decision, because I do believe he has gotten many more chances than most.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, Sheep. You're correct in saying that several rules were broken here. The biggest one I see that was broken is the following:

Don’t be Obnoxious
Being funny and goofy is fine what we don’t want is obnoxiousness. If you’re constantly asking immature questions or pestering people, or being simply uncourteous, we don’t want you here. This server is for mature adult players, but we’ll tolerate young MATURE players.

It is NOT acceptable to bully somebody in the public chat, regardless of how you feel toward them. This goes for every player who is reading this. If you have a problem with a player, either speak to them in private chat, or keep it to yourself. This kind of behavior reeks of immaturity and is not acceptable on VeteranCraft. As the rule says, being uncourteous is not allowed, and that is exactly what is being demonstrated here.

Erikteen has also been warned several times about his language, and even temporarily banned for not heeding our rules on this. We all know exactly what BS means. He constantly tries to get around this rule, and that is also not acceptable especially after several warnings. He was also not using it in general, he was using BS to insult another user, which again, is not acceptable.

This goes for everybody: if you have a problem with another user, keep your issues private, don't try and start things in public chat. Your feelings toward someone are not an excuse to break VeteranCraft's rules, especially after several warnings in the past regarding them. This is not the type of behavior we want on VeteranCraft.

Ban request accepted. Moving to ban reports to serve as one.
