I used to play the official server from 2016 to 2018 and I wanted to try playing it again, but when I tried joining I got this message:

I have no recollection at all of saying that and that's definitely not something I'd say, so I was hoping that I could be unbanned. I'm also apparently banned from the discord server (I would have posted this here).

Hello, I got permabanned around five months ago for using the word 'jew' in a supposedly racist manner. I didn't mean it that way, and I am duly sorry if I hurt someones feelings or insulted someone with this. My friends and I, being jewish ourselves, often use this to make our jokes about the stereotypes that are associated with jews. I now see, that this can easily be misunderstood by people not knowing us. I was also banned from the discord, before I was able to explain that to anyone. I waited a bit to let things calm down and if I could be unbanned will be more carefull in the use of my words in the future. I ask you to please consider to unban me and I would be very happy, to be able to play on TOS for the lotr mod again with the friends I made there.

Good evening,

my name is Frederic_Coloni. I've been playing on the official server (lotr.g.akliz.net) for quite some time now. I had a house, faction and about 2000 alignment with lots of factions. But that'that was about 8 months ago when the lates version was 33.4. I remember i stopped playing at some point but i don't remember quite well why. Now, after a long time, I told my LOTR-loving friend there was a MC mod with a server! He immediately asked if we'd play and i agreed. But here's the problem, i was banned. The reason is: "For a major grief ~Thrain". I don't remember ever griefing anything. I only remember once i took a mithril ingot from an abandoned structure, but i had an admin's permission. Also, once i took an banner from an abandoned building, with an admin's permission aswell. If there was any other grief-related act i did, i don't remember it, however i'm sorry if it happened. It'd be nice if I got unbanned so me and my friend could play.

To sum up, i'm sorry if i griefed in any kind of way, i hope you comprehend my situation.

Yours most sincerely,

Frederic_Coloni

Hello, I was Banned from the official lotr server. Well, I am nee on the Server and I am a very bin Fan of this mod and Server, but I didnˋt knew much about the rules. This evening I Showdown this Server to a friend of mine and we were playing for a while. When we were close to my house I was kicked (my Computer hat a problem). It had to restart and a few minutes later I started my minecraft again. Themen my friend Gold me, that another player followed him. When I was on the Server again I asked this unknown person, if he could stop attacking my friend. Ha Gold me, that my friend had to give him the items, He collected a few minutes before. He gave him his Items back, but before He had finished this guy attacked us. First He killed my friend and then He was attacking me. I was running, because this guy had very good Stufe and I was just Full Iron (with a dwarvens chestplate). But He had a bow, so I decided to leave, because I havenˋt done anything, so I wanted to keep my stuff. Well, I didnˋt knew, that this wasnˋt allowed, so I was pretty exited, that I had a ban for 5 days. Well, I have hollidays for one week and we wonˋt Go anywhere, so I will have to stay at home for a long time. I really like this Server, so it would be great, if you could give me a Second chance :D my Ingame Name is TheBaryonyx and my Friends Name is Mikey_Zockt (He was Banned to, I donˋt know why) Looking forwards to be able to Play on this awesome server soon, your Baryonyx

okay so it's about 2 years ago since i have been banned and also i know that my first ban appeal wasn't very long and i also had no proofs, that i didn't use x-ray and i don't have any proof now either,but i still love this server so i juzst wanted to ask if there is any chance for me to get unbanned

Introduction:

• Greetings staff members and fellow players, My name is M4GM4 and apparently I was banned for "Xray" on this server for something one of my younger siblings has done.

Reasoning:

• From the way I'm writing this as of now, you're going to probably think that "this whole ban appeal is just full of crap, all it will sum up is my brother did it unban me pls and ill xray your server again!!1!!1!" Please, choose to believe my reasoning or not but I'm not that type of guy who would go around exploiting server to server for the fun and joy of it. This isn't one of those long and boring excuses that will just sum up that "my brother did it" or "i will never exploit again" but an apology I would like to make to the staff who had to go through the trouble of banning this specific account.

Apology:

• I would like to make to the players on this server, especially fearrippers the staff member who "banned" this account. I would like to sincerely apologize to the staff for leaving my account logged on before I went to military academy for a semester, without knowing that my younger sibling who has a passion for exploiting impacted the work that I had accomplished throughout this great and fun server. This isn't an excuse for the fact that it had already happened, but an apology of me owning up to it.

• My joy in this server started out a year ago, in the summer when I first discovered this server via the modpack in technic launcher. I started off in the server and went from Eriador to Isengard and eventually meeting some distiniguised and unique people who would become my mentors and guide me towards a successful start in this server. I don't know where it went wrong, but that joy faded away when three months later I came back home to find myself banned.

Conclusion:

• Overall, I hope a staff member doesn't mind taking their precious and wonderful time out of their day to read this ban-appeal. I thank and apologize to everyone who has known me in Isengard for such an idiotic mistake that I have made, and if my reasoning is not valid and seen as "lies" to your respectable point of views please consider the length of the ban.

In the end, I just want to play some LOTR all day and create joyful and maybe some "salty" memories.

• P.S I couldn't find the facebook page, nor I wish to create a facebook account so that is why I posted it here.

Please contact me on discord if it is needed, FFF#3435

I was banned for grieving the build of Hell_Ryder, but yet i have never before met this player, seen this player, let alone know where he lives... I believe i was wrongly accused. Although the proposed ban was for one week i believe that i have been banned for a longer period.

-CREEPSSSSSE

Today 15 August 2017 was a normal day i got on the official server and was mining for mithril. I had a villager that has a great vanilla enchanted pickaxe.Because of the update i couldnt combine 2 pickaxes in a anvil to get a better pickaxe because they are vanilla enchanted. (i tested it out on a single player world) So i saw that Joetato got on so i asked it. Is there any possible way that i can give you my pickaxes and you spawn in one that i would get if it was vanilla minecraft? And Joe said no. So i told him RIP my villager. After than i had to go do something, so i told him ill bbl. I tried logging in and i got a ban, for "Trying to exploit an Admin". I dont understand how i tryed explioting Joe. I am very sorry if it seemed that way. All i wanted was a better pickaxe. Please explain to me why that is a ban. I am very confused. 

Over a year ago, I was banned by Spade for killing halted units. I posted twice for an appeal and am still banned. At this point I don't really want to argue whether the ban was fair or not, but he said that the ban would be two days. This was my first ban. After two days I was still banned. I posted here twice and was told I used an alternate account and was thus perm banned, but at that time I did not have an alt account, and I only ever tried to connect to the server to see if my ban had expired or not (besides, why would I risk a perm ban for having a two-day one?).

If anyone sees this, please ask Spade or another admin to unban me or explain to me why I have a permanent ban. Please note that My MC username is Lord_Glorfindel.

So about october 2016 or so, I was banned from TOS for theft I think it was. I dont remember stealing and If I did I am very sorry about it.

In game name TheSquidyChicken. I will not be able to get on for a while however due to my gaming computer breaking :/

sorry about the mith, ill mine some more, and I really love the server.

Dear devs, 

I am here to discuss Dutchwarrior123 ban and possible ban appeal as i believe he has been unjustly banned. This of course all boils down to perception on the server from a player, to the perception of the defendant (Dutchwarrior123). Yesterday around 7-8 oclock, Dutchwarrior123, decided he wanted to switch faction from the Gundabad orcs to Rohan. This was his choice, which led to him starting getting prestige by killing orc NPC, He was then confronted and battled with 2 orc players, who made quick work of him and stole all his stuff. This resulted in him marching for Rohan however on the way he was attempting to regain his resources back, by looking through his killers chests. This is not grieving at all, as by definition “A griefer is a player in a multiplayer video game who deliberately irritates and angers other players within the game, often using aspects of the game in unintended ways.”. My client did not irritate anyone he was simply trying to regain all he had lost, with little to no success. He was killed once more. Thus he marched for Rohan were they welcomed him openly and took him in as Rohan has a bitter past with orcs and there traitorous ways. 

It was then that Dutchwarrior123 was called upon for dinner in which he attempted to close the game in doing so accidentally right clicking on his comrade (thus hitting him) and logging off. This was the last time he would logs off for the day and worse due to the ban, for 2 days. As a minor he has no say in when dinner is and a simple accident when it comes to logging off should not be seen as a battle logg. I understand the debs and admins are working hard to keep the server intact and ensure everyone gets the same good gaming experience as one and other by upholding the rules, however the purpose of this rule was to keep players from being mid battle and logging off, it was not created to punish those that were logging off and accidentally hitting someone. 

Let the Admins see the light in this story and understand that there was no breaching of any rules, thus an injustice was done! And on the last day of our holiday we were stripped of the ability to play together on this oh so amazing server (I love it).

KenesHayek, the defendants older brother…

Love the work devs and admins! <3

This is the first time i have been banned, and i havent done anything wrong in terms of server rules... Me and my brother both play on this server with the same Wifi network, i have only been playing on this server for 4 days!!! this seems very unlikely.... please remove ban

Hello It has been a few long and terrible months since I was banned and over the time that you have given me time to reflect upon my deeds I have come to find that what I did was abominable, I have only made this mistake once ever over the course of my entire LOTR career and it just so happened to be on my most beloved server, So I apologize with all my heart and I would do most anything to return back. I realize my mistake I have bettered myself through months of hopping servers trying to fill the hole that was left when I was banned from ToS, Because ToS was a little more than a server for me, it was a place where I met with friends and brothers of mine, a place where I could vent and not be judged because I was breaking down (Because it was not visible to players) and I apologize incredibly and wholly to all the people that were affected by my actions and I can't begin to write how much I am sorry.

I realize my mistake and I am incredibly sorry for it and I will never EVER make it again no matter how tempting it may be, and I will say it till the day that I leave behind computer gaming and I would love to be embraced back into the community that I wronged so much, maybe not with vigor but to at least consider the return because I have become increasingly more depressed over the period of time of which I was banned given I have found no other way to vent my feelings in such an effective way.

Of what I could offer to the server, I would offer all that I did when I was on it before, which is help to all newer players and the upholding of a strong a beautiful faction (The dwarves) As well as my building skill to improve any builds or create any builds if offered the chance to do so, I believe I am a kind person and so I will treat any player with respect and care.

Again, I say I am impossibly sorry for this and it would help me incredibly emotionally to have a return to the server, If not with haste then to just consider bringing me back because I would love it incredibly, I realize that it is completely your choice to let me return or not but please take my appeal into consideration, I can’t wait to hear a reply from the admins and fellow players.

Yours most definitely for a very long time

Woow262 & beberdje

(we got banned for griefing near minas tirith ~Joetatoe)

I am banned, because of my sister which griefed anybody in the Erebor (I am a member of the faction). Yesterday I tried after 4months or 5months inactivity to log in again and I notice: Im banned! It would be very nice from you, when you unbann my account (TheMiningDwarf).

Username: ADBlackout

I was banned for taking items from the grey dwarf community vaults, but i was still in the faction when i took the items. I left the faction 24 hours later, and I got banned for stealing.

If I could come back on, i would try to avoid mix ups like this in the future. I am a good player, this was the first time I've done something wrong, even though i believe I shouldn't have been banned for this seeing it was taken legally.

Plz unban meh :(
