To be honest, this petition won't do much. We would like to change the rule but as of right now its next to impossible. The staff are working on a permanent solution. We would like to be able to store all of the evidence in a database but it isn't practical. With all the videos and screenshots that we use to ban people every day it would be a ton of money (more than we can afford). This petition could get 1,000 signatures but until we find a practical permanent solution, the rule is most likely not going to change. So here is my solution, don't delete the evidence. Keep it on your youtube and i suggest having a backup of the video. I know that takes up hard drive space but right now its the only way. I apologize if you don't fee the rule is fair but right now it won't change no matter how many people sign this.
No-one here thinks that deleting evidence isn't a problem. Clearly it's a pain for the staff and can make things difficult. The point, though, is that a first-time permaban for something which is almost always accidental is ridiculous. The people that get banned for this are also
reporting rule breakers. There is a very simple solution; that being a first-t
Fun Fact: If you want someone to respect an idea of yours, a proposal is the way to go. A petition shows that you are going against us currently, whilst a proposal shows that you want to work with us.
[/My 2 cents]
There have been an absolute TON of threads on this subject ever since
Cscoop 's ban. Each has put forward a proposal, and each has been ignored or dismissed by staff. I also know that some people have emailed MCgamer about it, and also have been put down. Clearly the staff do not realise how much of a problem this is for the community. A petition is a great way to show how much this means to the community, and a last resort since everything else is being ignored.
Well, that's just, like, my opinion, man.
