Hey Palker!

I was the one who banned you initially for "Autofishing as a JMod and Lying to Upper Staff", and after our discussion in DMs as well as how it has been a year since the ban occurred, I am willing to unban you under the following terms.
  An iron+ and emp reset
  Pyrofishing stats and items reset
  MCMMO fishing reset
  12 hours of Untrusted time
  Give me one rule from the SFT rule book, which can be found by clicking here.

The cause of why you were banned was a very serious offense, which we discussed in DMs, and if you are found to be using these mods/hacked clients again, you will banned permanently without the chance of an unban.

You have one week to reply and accept your terms or it'll be locked with no unban and you'll need to submit a new request!

Please post another unban with the proper ban reason.

Hey guys!

Some of you have mentioned wanting an alternative recipe for the DankTech2 Tier 9 Cells, which require 8 nether stars for each cell, meaning a grand total of 64 nether stars would be needed for each Tier 9 Dank Pack and Trash Pack that you may want to create. Therefore, we have worked hard on it and the new recipe is now available!

It is composed of the following items in a regular crafting table OR elite crafting table:
  4 Wither Skeleton Skulls
  2 Fire Guardian Runes
  2 Lightning Guardian Runes
  1 Tier 8 Dank Cell

It may seem like a lot but these serve as a replacement for the 8 wither boss fights you would have to do in normal Minecraft for each of the cells! The specific pattern for the cell is in the image below, have fun crafting!

[harassment]

Hey Hiay!

The person who banned you is no longer staff, so I will be taking over this unban request.

You were banned for "Toxic Behavior. Harassing Players by Spamming SFT with Alt Accounts" while I was online with OJaxi, who banned you initially. If I remember correctly, that day itself was hectic online, as a lot of staff and players were online. However, I do remember this incident fairly well, as you joined with multiple accounts, which resulted in me and OJaxi agreeing on an IP ban for you.

As for my reply to your unban, I want to address a few things.

When I saw that she joined I didn't say much and decided to wait and see if she knew that my Minecraft name is Hiay.

The incident started first on Discord and in-game where they asked if you were Simon and they continuously repeated asking you. To be fair with what you have said, they did ask you repeatedly and should have been stopped by staff for spamming the same question over and over. However, it was clear that you intentionally held back that information as a way to antagonize them in a situation where they expressed discomfort with you being near them.

I did not think much of it cause I thought she was joking around by treating something so trivial as a serious matter.

Some things may be trivial to you, but not to others! It is important to understand that, especially on a SFT where one of our main objectives is to ensure that players are courteous and respectful to each other.

Telling me to get the f*** out of her house while I only checked the outside. MasterX even said "04/30/2023 11:48 PM [Survival][Admin]MasterX70: i never saw Hiay in your house xD". I thought it was silly getting mad at me for not doing anything wrong and just visiting your public warp. This made me think she was just joking to get me in trouble. I was told to leave by Maya which I did. My curiosity got the best of me and I logged on a different account to check out the PUBLIC warp without having someone yell at me.

In this instance, I think the technicalities of whether or not you were inside Chromeda's house are unfair, as you had already been pestering them to the point where they were very agitated and most likely mispoke, instead meaning that you were to leave their entire protection alone. At this point, Chromeda had made it very clear over the past hour that they were uncomfortable with you being around them in-game, which should have told you they were not joking about their comments towards you. As for the public warp, they had already told you it was to one of their buildings, and therefore they reserve the right to not allow you to come to it. I want to be very clear in stating that if you are continuously told by staff to not return to a build or even by the player themselves, and you continue to do so, it is harassment.

I was told to leave by Maya which I did.

I want to state that when you left, I did appreciate that you had accepted our judgment and had decided to leave the server to cool down.

My curiosity got the best of me and I logged on a different account to check out the PUBLIC warp without having someone yell at me. She knew it was me and started getting mad at me for viewing her build once again. I thought this whole situation was so dumb but mildly entertaining so I logged on like 5 different accounts to check the PUBLIC warp out again. After the 5th account I got banned, ip banned to be exact. I had no idea that what I was doing was bannable cause I was just looking at someone's build.

I clearly stated to you when I addressed you on your main account that "it is a public warp, but it is also Chrome's property, and they reserve the right to say who comes here, so please leave now", which is when you decided to leave and then eventually log off. However, by logging online and then teleporting to the warp again, you went against what I said to you and continued to harass Chromeda at their warp. As you state here, you were joining Survival with new accounts to intentionally harass a player, which is a very serious offense on SFT. At that point, the IP ban was decided between OJaxi and me, "Harassing Players by Spamming SFT with Alt Accounts".

Why should you be unbanned ?
Personally I don't think I did something bannable. I think the ban reason stated that I harassed her. I was just having fun and looking around her build and didn't have the intention to upset her. I will admit that during the leafluck games I did get a little too silly but she was saying more PG13 things than I did. During that entire SFT session I got told to go away like once so I don't think a PERMANENT IP BAN is justified. I apologize if I upset anyone by playing on the server and in the case of me getting unbanned, I'll just stick to interacting with friends only. Another reason of me applying for an unban is because a friend just bought Minecraft Java edition and I thought it would be fun to teach her on a server that has /fly and other things that make the game easier. To conclude this long appeal, I will be more considerate in the future and if someone appears to be upset I'll take it serious instead of thinking they are joking. I have learned from my mistakes and should stop visiting people's builds.

I have addressed in my above statements why what you did was bannable in detail, so please read through them thoroughly, as you deserve a full explanation as to why exactly you were banned. As for your apology and explanation as to why you should be unbanned, I appreciate that you are apologizing for your actions and that you have learned to be more considerate of others' feelings in the future. However, your apology does not mention that you are sorry for intentionally causing Chromeda distress, only that you caused people to be upset by playing online.

I'm also banned from the Discord so it would be nice to get some feedback about that whole thing after 2+ years too

You posted an unban in September of 2022, which can be found by clicking here.

Over the years you have played on SFT, we have given you many chances, and you have been told multiple times to respect our fellow players as well as staff. This time there will not be another chance, as you were warned on your last unban that it was your final warning, so you will not be unbanned and please refrain from posting another in the future.

Locking.

[back]

SphereTown is back under Version 3.0!!
Some of you may have gotten some sneak peeks in the last few weeks, but we are officially announcing the return of the SFT classic SphereTown! We usually do this every few years, with the last being Wppvater's own SphereTown 2.1 back in 2020 (here) so we decided to once again start it up!

Now, some of you may not have been around back when it initially began, so I will let our own MordalThunder (from 2013) explain it:

February 2011 - A manager (Fractalion) decides to build a weird town made out of worldedited spheres called Spheretown. Each of these spheres had its own mini-biome and people could live in spheres. It turns out this "Spheretown" becomes a huge success, everyone over the internet talks about it (reddit, etc) and before you know it, a famous youtuber whom i never knew about (shameful me), joins the server and asks if he can be given flymod to film Spheretown. We agreed, helped him and what happened next is truly a legend.

That famous youtuber was nobody else than CaptainSparklez. His video Spheretown (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7HKXMxQbW8) helped sft recover from the private community laying in ruins to a public server even stronger than it was before the attack. His video quickly becomes viral and before you know it we start getting hundreds or even thousands of joins each day, all asking about spheretown. This is also when we moved the server to a professional datacenter.

Now, let's get into the specifics of how we are going to operate SphereTown! It is important that we keep it organized while also maintaining the fun that it brings to SFT.

The original SphereTown had biomes as well as areas to live in, whereas more recent versions only allowed you to build biomes. Therefore, we are going to be reverting to the original SphereTown to allow you to build a biome OR a home within the sphere! Since it is a big decision, every player is allowed to have TWO spheres! This may change in the future depending on the number of players who build, so get all your friends to participate (:

Since you are allowed to have two spheres, you are allowed to build two biome spheres OR one biome sphere and one house sphere. The price of the Biome Sphere is approximately 100k emp and a House Sphere is 150k, which we thought is a fair price with our economy!

There are SOME limitations as to what you can build, but not too many that would impede you guys from having fun. The rules for the spheres are as follows (subject to change):
  All builds must be appropriate and legal.
  No building outside of the Spheres.
  No breaking the Sphere glass and replacing it with other blocks.
  No changing the color of the Sphere glass unless given permission.
  No blocking the entrances to any of the Spheres.
  No water or lava should come out of Spheres.

Now! If you wish to start setting up your Sphere in SphereTown, go to /warp SphereTownv3, contact a Manager+ and pay them the specified fee, then they will add you to a Sphere's protection. Please be patient, as we are a small team! If you continuously demand a Sphere or harass Manager+ DMs, we will not allow you to participate.

I hope to see all of you as neighbors soon in SphereTown!! And a very, very special shout out to Nicadean33, one of our Admins, for setting up all of the Spheres and main area that we will be calling home soon!

No unban. Please refrain from posting another one in the future.

As some of you may know, late last year we had to unfortunately disable backpacks and Cargo Management on Survival as they had caused numerous issues. We kept up with the plugin developers to ensure that we could re-enable them as soon as they were fixed, and the day has come!

Our Manager+ team, with the help of Judge_Bird, has extensively tested the Cargo Management system and Backpacks to ensure that they will not cause more issues, or still experience the ones they previously had. However, if you do encounter any issues, we will need you to contact a Manager+ immediately! If issues are not fixed and continue to persist like last year, we cannot guarantee they will stay enabled.

Additionally, we have a new add-on for Slimefun! Autpek announced that we have added DankTech2 on Discord yesterday, which adds many new features. These include backpacks with more storage and trashcans that automatically delete items you don't want your inventory to collect! More information can be found on our discord by clicking here. As for those of you who have already looked at the recipes, we are currently working on alternate recipes for the higher Tiers as they require nether stars!

[July 16th]

As you may know, Minecraft has released the Tales and Trails update, which includes a new Cherry Blossom biome and the new Sniffer mob (click here for more information). Usually, when Minecraft releases a new update, we add any new items or biomes through an updated Scavenge World. However, we wanted to switch it up for this update and reset one of our worlds.

Per Towelie's Announcement on our discord (click here to read), we are resetting World 2 for the Tails and Trails update. We decided on this world as the custom generation has caused numerous issues with WorldEdit. These issues would have likely rendered it inhabitable within the next few months, which would cause it to need a reset.

If you are afraid of losing any builds you have in World 2, do not fear, as we will be allowing builds to be transferred to the new world, or World 1, from July 16th until roughly September 16th. We are conducting this by converting World 2 to World 2old, allowing us to keep it online with the new World 2.

However, not every build will be accepted, and you will only be allowed to have three builds moved. The following parts of this post will concentrate on the requirements or limitations of the builds that can be moved. If you have any questions regarding the reset, please direct them to #survival-feedback on SFT Discord or contact an Admin (click here for staff contact information).
As I mentioned above, you will only be allowed to have 3 builds moved over from World 2, for which the prices of each build will depend on how big it is. Minecraft builds can be very extravagant, so we will allow up to 3 million blocks to be moved, and for every block over that amount, you will be charged 1 emp ontop of the build move costs!

With the rarity of autoshops on Survival, we will be allowing all autoshops to be moved from World 2 for free. This will not count towards your limit of three build moves; however, it can only be the autoshop. No attached houses or areas (excluding attached storage rooms). As for spawners or individual rooms of houses, we will not be allowing them to be moved.

Due to constraints around Slimefun and what is disabled, we will be unable to move any cargo systems from World 2.

Additionally, the Manager+ Team reserves the right to turn down a build move if it is too big to be moved, inappropriate, or an illegal SFT build, following a review from the team.

Build Move Costs
  First Build: Free
  Second Build: 500k
  Third Build: 1 million

If you wish to have a build moved and there are no Managers or Admins online, please use the World 2 Build Move Request Form 2023.
We are a smaller team, so please be patient! If you leave contact information, we will notify you when it is complete (:

Hey! So I know it's been an incredibly long time since the last time I posted an update, and I would like to apologize for that. We all have been incredibly busy and it has completely  left you guys in the dark, something we are all upset about.

Now, as you may notice I have changed the form of our announcements from Lost Islands to Modded. If you do not know, I had previously posted an update back on August 27th in regards to how we were progressing on our Lost Islands server. Unfortunately, in the time that has passed since this date we have been unable to make further progress. Numerous things have occurred for this to transpire, and nobody is to blame for what has happened! I don't want to see people playing the blame game for something that just, unfortunately, naturally occurred as a result of life and the day to day lives of everyone here on SFT.

As for the other aspect of updates, we do have a few modpacks in mind for the next server and we have really gained momentum on them as of this moment. I am not going to name any specific packs at this moment! But I am going to say that we are going to be starting off with a pack that is nice for all players, including those who do not have much modded experience. Further details will be released within the next month or two!

I appreciate all of you who have stuck around with us long enough to see all our projects through, and I hope to continue seeing you guys with our next modpacks.

[Want to suggest a Steve Co. Crate?]

Hey everyone!

Have you ever wanted a custom item based off your favorite movie? Maybe your favorite book?
Well, here is your chance! We want to hear your ideas for new Steve Co. Crates (:

As you may know, we have system on Survival where you can randomly get Steve Co. Crates that each have their own theme. Some are based on Minecraft updates, some on our own SFT history, and some on movies or shows. These crates usually have a random selection of items related to their theme, which can vary from armor to weapons with unique names, random enchantments, and lore. When you pair the Steve Co. Crate with a Steve Co. key that you get from voting in a crafting table, you are able to randomly receive one of these unique items!

Now, we want to be able to reflect your interests in these Steve Co. Crates, as we find it important for you guys to find them worthy of collecting. We have created a post in General Survival Discussions for you guys to post your suggestions (linked below)!

Hey guys!

Have you ever really wanted a custom item in-game named after your favorite movies or shows? Maybe even your favorite parts of SFT?? Well, here you can suggest a Steve Co. Crate with a chance of it being created in game!

Every Steve Co. Crate needs a theme, whether it be a Minecraft update, SFT or your favorite movie that you are recreating through different items. When you want to create a theme, try to think of something everyone would know or like to have in their homes online! Now, these themes need items or tools to make up the crate itself. When you suggest a Crate, we are essentially asking that you create a "box" of items that you feel represents your theme. These items can have custom names (include colors if you want!) and lore (descriptions) as well as different enchantments, some that may not usually even be found on those tools! It really is up to you, but please do not go overboard.

In order to suggest a Steve Co. Crate, it needs to meet the following requirements:   
    All items are appropriate, we are a family-friendly server.
    All suggested items are organized in a list.
    Total item count must be under 10.
    Crate items match your "theme".

If you would like to suggest a Steve Co. Crate, copy and paste to use this format! (type after the [/b] tags)

[Our recipe needs exactly:]

After the upsetting news of disabling backpacks, we figured we could help cheer everyone up a bit by coming up with a recipe for that nice Strange Nether Goo that Slimefun has...

Now, normally in order to obtain the gooey nether substance you would need to kindly barter with Piglins to recieve it. Our recipe is a little bit different... you're gonna need one of their heads instead!

Our recipe needs exactly:
  6 24-Carat Gold Ingots
  2 Gold Dust
  1 Piglin Head

Unlike the Blistering Ingots recipe, ours has a very specific formula to capture it's strange-ness, so it needs configured in the Elite Workbench and shaped as:

Thank you to everyone who helped develop this recipe!! (especially Aiden with his top notch statistic skills)
