    Adding unbans basically makes moderator's work useless. If a hacker were to be banned, he can easily buy an unban.

    You guys are making a storm over a glass of water... Honestly is not that bad. Not many people will buy it and it can be used only once...

    There's better things to do, like, fixing the gamemodes, or resetting them
    But we get discord and unbans so it's all good ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

    They actually added unbans? I might be able to buy an unban on infection does the unbans count for perm bans as well?
    Also, hackers can just use VPN's and more alts they wouldn't waste money on an unban so don't try with that they won't waste there money.

    I disagree but am not going to argue. We both know how it feels to work and then have your work undone at the drop of a hat. It royally sucks.

    Can I charge for access to my server?
    Yes. How players join a server is up to you. Single entrance fees or subscriptions are both allowed.
    Can be used more than once.*

    And yes, this is a big deal. It shows that ownership cares about the money more than the quality. I mean we've reached the point we're monetizing Teamspeak. You know its bad then.

    If you're charging one player for access to the server, everyone has to be charged the same amount. You're basically selling a ticket to join the server.
    "Because the Commercial usage guidelines state that you may charge for access to your server only if you make a single charge per person that is the same for everyone, you may not sell “lives” or reduced ban time for hard currency. If you have a single entrance fee for your server, it needs to be the same for all players, including the ones connecting for the first time." -Minecraft Commercial Use Guidelines

    Perm bans aren't either in those terms

    Really not alright, honestly this is looking like a slippery slope (to me at least) and I wouldn't be surprised if that cap is lifted not far down the line.

    Even now all it really seems to be is an effort to squeeze a couple extra dollars out of a (very) limited demographic while simultaneously insulting the entire moderation community.

    I am quite unnerved about how Moderators and ex-Moderators' work goes down the drain, but I don't think so many people would buy it.

    not too sure what happens, if you purchase an unban and your alts are banned too at the same time, from the original ban on your main account is that classified as ban evading, or do you have to pay for each account smmh.

    Only the account you payed for will be unbanned, the alts banned for ban evading will remain banned... And no you will not be banned again for ban evading.

    See, it's one thing to disagree with Cyp's actions, but to call him out on something like this, and call him by the term "bastard" is incredibly crude.

    Wait, how would you tell if it's ban evading or not?
