Ban Appeal Concerns

If you don't mind me asking, why do girls get different treatment than guys on the server? Moriadus clearly has her profile set to show that she's a girl, with her picture and all, while mine is to show that I'm a guy. Is there a problem with staff on this server? Moriadus and I posted unban appeals on the same day, and you responded to her immediately, while I had to wait a month, THEN bump the post for mine to get you to respond. Not only that, but for her unban, all the staff just said if they wanted her back on or not (which they agreed to), but I have to pay to get unbanned because I was banned "6" times (It was only 4, and one of them was an accident). Now why is it that these MALE staff members feel obligated to reply to her and not me? Chances are that, knowing the way the male brain functions, you think that by unbanning her, she'll like you. And you want that, don't you? This kind of prejudice needs to be eliminated immediately.

Are you serious.

#1 The current staff is not sexist
#2 if you are looking to apply for ban appeal, whining because no one replied on your appeal wont help your cause.
#3 Just because an appeal is made does not mean a staff member has to respond (as far as I know)

1. Is that just from your experience? I've been playing on Craftland longer than you, and I can easily say that in my experience, they've always been nicer to the girls on the server when I'm around.
2. It was not my intent to whine, I was just trying to simply put that I had to wait A MONTH for a reply.
3. Even if they don't have to, what would be the point of these forums? For people to discuss what they had for breakfast last Wednesday? No, it's for matters that need to be taken care of. People can leave there conversations to Skype and Craftland, not these forums.

Is it a problem that i have my picture set to a pic of me and my gender being female? I mean, I'm not gonna lie about mah gender and i like the way mah hair looks in dat pic so that's why i used it. As for the problems you are having, I'm sorry to hear you had to wait a month and you feel like you were treated unfairly. I would feel mad as well. But, since i am not any of the staff, idunno what they are thinking or why they make the choices they do. But i don't feel like they're sexist. .-.

SLB: You have joined before me, but I have clearly played much more then you. The current staff is not sexist. Also, just because an appeal is made does not mean a staff member needs to comment as i said before. We/They might not respond because we/they have no comment. The point of the forums is a place where players can converse even when they are not online. Its also meant for problems. No one having a comment for your ban appeal is not a problem.

If you are really bent thinking that the staff is sexist, I would like to see some proof that they are, excluding that your ban appeal has no comments.

Great, another political correctness topic.

Look, we are not sexist. How we treat you, is how you treat us. If you see me in game, and say "Hey pig :D How are you?" Im going to reply with "Hey! Good, You?" and be nice and reply.
If you join and say "Hey smartass pig, I really dont like you" Them im going to reply with "Excuse me? Who do you think your talking too. Say something to me like that again and your gone :)" or something like that.

You get the point.

Im not saying that you said anything different and as im not a mod/admin, I dont read the appeals fully, as I dont really have to care right now. But we are not sexist. Replies are originated different ways, depending on the staff member. If you see a report for someone you banned, they are probably going to reply quicker. If you had nothing to do with them, then they are less likely to get involved(depending on the staff member).

It's not because of gender. It's because 99% of the non-helper staff is inactive, so no one gets unbanned... like ever.

Uhm to let you know a fact:
Moriadus is still banned and doesnt have a pay-to-unban option.
While I gave you the option to pay for your unban.

So lets see, are we sexists because we treat you better then a girl, while you claim the other way around?

Well, not only that, but you have to remember that the staff was just going to discuss Moriadus's unban, while I have to pay. That may be good for me, but I live in a low income household. We live off food stamps and child support. I'm not even legally old enough to get a job to help out, so unless we win the lottery, that, unfortunately, probably won't happen anytime soon.

Isn't that how the brain works

And you were banned for breaking rules I don't think they care about your personal life.
