[Sorry about poor grammar at some parts, I typed this fast and just started to ramble off what was on my mind.] [I probably repeated myself 10000 times in this post, lol.] First off, yes, I was demoted. Did I deserve it? Yep. I wanted to make this topic to just simply talk about something I see often in-game when people ask about my demotion. I've always kinda not seen a reason to complain about decisions staff related by the upper staff. Sure, some people will always disagree but don't just disagree because you like the person demoted. I completely respect the decision of the admin team and whatever they feel is right for the network I would want to happen. The decision was valid and I understand what I did was wrong. For those who do not know why I was demoted, I'll come clean. I was demoted for "Immaturity, bias, racism, sexism, and favoritism." Another thing about this guys... Whenever something happens to you like being demoted, don't just sit there and bitch and moan about it. Everything happens for a reason and can teach you a lesson. What I learned from my demotion is a strong one too. Treat people the way you want to be treated, even if joking. I have always found myself to be a caring person, I just always had to dig far into me find that side. I would always say rude and racist remarks on TS as a joke. Is it fine to say such things even if joking? No. Now obviously being demoted on a minecraft server is a very small one, but it's just a much larger scale of being kicked off a sports team or kicked out of your school. I take this as a small lesson but also a huge one. Don't let the bad things that happen to you win. My demotion is only temporary, however, it all depends on how I act on Avicus and if I make one mistake I can be perm demoted at any minute. If you wanted to know how I plan to deal with this, I only have one answer. I'm going to continue to show that I do love this network and that I do want to be a staff member, whether or not I get sr mod back or just mod.
Do you deserve the demotion? Yes. But, do I, without personal bias, think you deserve a second chance? Yes. You showed some good moderator qualities and I think that you can build yourself back up if you push forward and keep going.
It takes guts to come out like that. Respect for you good sir ;). Avicus doesn't give up on its members like that. You have our trust/respect :). And this post reflects your commitment, and loyalty towards this server. You have my full support m80 :D
Thanks for being honest, takes a lot of courage and the bios part lots of people we're saying that you are bios but I didnt believe them but then you put here :)
Alright, I read the post. That is pretty coincidental. But did you ever try reporting the staff members? If you have enough proof, the admins/senior mods/other definitely won't just ignore it. :)

I've tried multiple times but unfortunately the senior staff members doesn't respond well to my reports.
Docta, tbh you were a good moderator, even if you were being a bit vulgar from time to time. I respect you for posting this and good luck with your "trial".
yea he said it was a larger scale of being kicked out a sports team or school?
are you telling me i cant read now? i study a level english... i can interpret the words... maybe he phrased it wrong or something?
He worded it weirdly but read the whole sentence. "Now obviously being demoted on a minecraft server is a very small one, but it's just a much larger scale of being kicked off a sports team or kicked out of your school." So I can see where you are coming from, but what he meant was that it's not as big as being kicked off a sports team or kicked out of your school.
Well, mods joke about racism, etc, otherwise they would have been demoted a long time ago if they were actually serious about them. However, I see your point, a new player can be racist with someone in TS or in the chat and he would be instantly punished but mods are actually treated different from the rest sometimes which is pretty annoying.
I don't think I've ever talked to you in-game. But from what I know and what I have just read that you typed. You deserve a second chance. You seem like a mature guy and avicus needs those people.
To be completely honest here, that's kind of what kept me from being more confident about my chances when I applied: my edginess and irritability. Just please know that you aren't alone, and I know you're trying to redeem yourself, but don't act like a completely different person (being less outgoing, enforcing rules left and right, etc.); just be yourself!
