Title: [DeweyMeister] Tabooti's Defense pitch.
Post by: Hasan (Tabooti) on September 22, 2012, 08:30:49 am
Username: tabooti
Banned By: DeweyMeister
Reason: Griefing Acornbulb's Island   
Set date: 52 blocks   2012-09-22 02:35:22   
Expire date: 2012-09-24 02:35:22

Let's clarify exactly what 'Acornbulb's Island" really is.
http://smp.opticraft.net/map/#/-4887/64/-1955/max/0/0

This is what it is, And supposedly this belong to Acornbulb.

On June 19th (Earliest builds by him on that island-As said by Chipaton) Acornbulb has started construction on the Island. However, The Island was part of Stuttgart's territorial claims 3 days before Acornbulb started his Unlawful construction.

(click to show/hide)

On June the 19th Acornbulb, applied to join the city of Stuttgart.
(click to show/hide)
Not to mention that he joined to practically give us his land, Will be returned to him.
We have no interest in his land, And do not want it, and is the reason that his region was not included in our territorial claims. (http://i1137.photobucket.com/albums/n512/Joe_SavedTheDay/fartymap-1.png?t=1345749124)

As you can see in our modern territorial claims, our claims include half of the Island, as per our ORIGINAL claims (http://i.imgur.com/X585r.jpg), PRIOR to acornbulb, even BUILDING on the island.

Now for the VERY related ban appeal:

1st Point: Not Acornbulb's Island. And the areas modified, never belonged to his Island in the first place.

We were building our fence across the Island, when Acornbulb started freaking out. And called the mods over. He called them over, and after a long discussion with them, I agreed to take the fences down temporarily (And started building around the island, as instructed), Till the island dispute is resolved. Aside from that, I removed the bridge that he made that connected to our mainland. Went to gather wood for more fence a few moments later I was banned.

Checked the ban, And I was supposedly banned for griefing (???)
Adding and removing blocks (Including a dirt bridge, that's not part of the Island, IS NOT griefing.)


If possible, I'd like an Admin, or Operator veto the decision made by these moderators on the Island's ownership.
Proof is provided above.

First of all you CAN NOT claim land by merely drawing a paint border around a pic, so basically what your saying is I can draw a border around a picture of the ENITRE live map and claim it as mine? I dont think so.
 
Second of all, i quite frankly DO NOT care about your city's rules as these rules are not abdided by the entire server, so thus makes these laws petty and rather pointless, and it is also his land so you actually have no claim to his land because  you have NO actual signature of this person agreeing to your laws, and NO a post does not count as signature.

Third of all you placed blocks on HIS island which counts as grief and the you destroyed HIS land bridge with is further grief

So am I correct in saying that i now own everything within that box?
Title: Re: Tabooti's Defense pitch.
Post by: Hasan (Tabooti) on September 22, 2012, 09:28:39 am
Simply no, you cannot own all this land because you put it in a box.
The land we claimed, was virgin land (Meaning that no one has touched it yet).
We verified our claim on it, by building these fences, and by having any residencies to agree to our border claims.(ACORN AGREED TO THESE CLAIMS Due to the proofs that I've provided)  

you have NO actual signature of this person agreeing to your laws, and NO a post does not count as signature.

RIGHT THERE
He AGREED to the rules, He AGREED to those LAWS. Those are AGREEMENTS. Those AGREEMENTS, and CONSENT. And I've put up the laws to prove it.
This was land, that is rightfully ours, He built on it without permission from us.

IF you joined a city, and didn't read it the rules, that's your fault, not mine.
The same thing with the server, If someone broke the rules, and didn't read them, It's THEIR fault, Not yours.
(click to show/hide)


Rebutting point 3:

The bridge has exactly 22 blocks. A Dirt bridge, that leads to OUR undisputed land.
The BRIDGE is NOT part of the Island what so ever.

Another point that I have to make, Is your opinion is Irrelevant towards what qualifies as a legitimate claim, and what qualifies as city laws, You can leave that completely up to the Admins.

In addition, You are a biased person. Both you, and I have had grievances, and you do not like me, a wee bit. I suspect that you are supporting false claims out of vengeance.
In addition to providing all the evidences of my defense, and claims.
I would like to resort to one of the many unwritten staff rules, And I wish not to allow you to continue to post on this thread: reasons being, that you are not the person who banned me.

In addition, Out of fear of you being biased towards this entire case, I don't want you to be involved in it either.

I'd like the decision (Of the Island dispute) to be completely up to an Admin, since I do not  acknowledge the decisions made by the moderators.
And of course, the Ban appeal is directed to Dewey, and his superiors.

If the moderators wish to provide evidences, or facts, I completely agree with that. However do NOT edit my post.

Sorry for the double post, but I forgot about this bit.

I want to stress the following section of your quote:

your city's rules as these rules are not abdided by the entire server

Correct, The laws do not apply on the entire server. The laws only apply on those who signed & agreed to it. IE: Official citizens of Stuttgart.

Which again I'll stress that he agreed to it here:
And as I posted before, This post was posted by his account. I'm quite sure that validates it, as a consent to the laws.
HE agreed to it, I didn't impose it on anyone.

Have you read and Agreed to abide by all Stuttgart's laws and any future changes to it? Yea

Do you live *Or have lived* in any other cities, If so please list them.  Nope

Post all you want about why I was banned, However This is not your border dispute. This is Strictly Between The City of Stuttgart v.s Acornbulb.

And I'll wait for an admin to leave his verdict on who the Island belongs to.

Oh, I'd like to add about that ban anyways.

Third of all you placed blocks on HIS island which counts as grief and the you destroyed HIS land bridge with is further grief


False, and a thousand times false.
You guys showed, told us to take down the fence, and mark the land around the Island.
We said okay, and we started to take down the fence.
Shortly after; one of you guys put a protection stone under the Island, after the fence was removed. (Then you dug it up later on, and continued to /vanish around us (Not to mention that a group of you started to destroy the dirt around us, and proceeded to place me into an AFK box, as I was afk.)

To go on, We started placing the fence around the Island as instructed. Now, there is one little junction there. There was a bridge going from the Island, to our land.
Which so happens not to exist in this picture here. http://i.imgur.com/X585r.jpg

In addition, the Bridge was created on 6-7, At that point we contacted Acorn, and asked him to remove the bridge, since it was intruding on our territory. And you can see from your own picture  http://i1153.photobucket.com/albums/p507/Scotty602AB/2012-09-22_093250_zpscc9ea03d.png

He took it down himself, Only to put it back up a 3 months later, when he was a member of the city. (That was a breach of our law).

What is a signature for Scotty?
A signature is:
A distinctive pattern, product, or characteristic by which someone or something can be identified
- the chef produced the pâté that was his signature
- his signature dish

Now, What makes Acornbulb's post a signature?

The fact that it was posted from his account! The fact that the person posting it IS actually called "AcornBulb".
The point of a signature is to prove that a document is not forged.



Thank you for that wonderful post! Oh, Lovely Scotty!

You're biased, and your post, is the proof. You made it personal, and backed up my claim that you have something against me.

Hmmm.

Tabooti.
Why did you have to be so freaking difficult?
U said.
Acorn u annexed half your land so Igenerator didnt include it
Me: Oh. U can make a fence around the whole place include it all
U: No I just cant deal with it your out

Right?
Ur friend built on a constitution site
It was a fence not even a building
So I replaced it a bit on the side

Now.
We agreed
That I would annex my land right?
I asked so hypothetically speaking U could kick me out?
U replied by saying
Yes I would but I will NOT
If I left stuttgard then it would be reasonable if u said Ok gimme the land
But I didn't


And if I go in stuttgard even if I am a citizen
And destroy somebody else's home, it is griefing member or not

I don't recall ever agreeing to the kicking out thing.
Aside from that, I've already posted on our thread, that we've kicked you out, and gave you back your land.
Your region, now belongs entirely to you, EXCEPT for half of the Island.

(click to show/hide)

The Island entire island, was never yours to begin with. Only half of it belongs to you. The other half belongs to our city.
Am I not right on that part?
If not, Why did you agree to the Laws that the land is actually ours?

This is a ban appeal, not an argument or RPG based court case - so please do not argue, or become defensive as pretty much all you need to say has in fact been said...

Tabooti, I don't want to get fully involved with your dispute but the laws that are in effect inside of your town do not alter the server's rules itself. You must still abide by the rules whatever your town or "government" says and destroying something that someone else made knowingly is no exception. Your town is inside the server so it is in fact governed by the server's rules, not your own. The untouched land that you have said to have taken control of is very large but you have not untill recently marked out in-game where the border is to lay.

Regardless, the land you have claimed is rediculiously large and considering you were away for a fairly long while you expect everything to be the same when you get back to your unbordered and unprotected city? I'm sure it is not that big of a deal to give away a tiny amount of your land to Acorn and this issue can be resolved a lot quicker.

I was not there at the time but after talking to people I am not going to take anyones side and I'm sorry if I have missed anything, but it seems to me you have overlooked a few things.

>The Laws are proof that both parties acknowledged the terms that were stated in the Lawbook
>The Laws do not alter the server's rules, Not replace them. As I've mentioned they are points, that are proof that both parties agree on.

This isn't in any form an RPG-based court.

The Island dispute is DIRECTLY related to the problem. The area that I "griefed" wasn't part of the Island, and by no means was it clear that it was.
I was instructed that I may build our border around the Island, Now if the Island has a bridge connecting the main-land, How long does it extend?

The Island dispute is why I was banned, I completely reject, and do not recognize that I griefed at all.
That is why the Island dispute is extremely important. His borders are not obvious, While ours are. BUT, Ours claim is being rejected, simply because a moderator refuses to recognize that "Agreeing to the rules is not a signature, thus it's invalid".

My case is very strong, and very clear.
I've provided evidence, and FACTS.
Weather you consider it RPG-Court or not, Is completely irreverent.

The base of the Problem is whom the Island belongs to, And there are NO rules anywhere outside the city threads, that make it clear on what is valid claims or not.

That's why I'm waiting for an admin to decide on the case.


Thank you for taking a fair, unbiased view at this Tobs, I really appreciate it. (Not sarcasm, Just in case it appears to be) ;)

Protection stones and project/city protection are both within the rules and very clear ways in which protection/claims area avalible. Borders around your area, be it walls or fences, are not protected or in the rules but easily define where your area is.

Would you be willing to settle if the bridge to your land was to be removed and the fence over Acorn's land were both to be removed, and your fence move around the island and surrounding water? Acorn is happy to remove the bridge if you are willing to move the fence onto the edge of your land? :)

As for the protection stones. The city thread *And lawbook* was created as a replacement to the protection stones, given that the subject agrees to the law.
I mean, we could have just included his land, But he doesn't obey by the rules, and that's why it was returned.


We may be willing to settle for that.
Provided that I am pardoned for the misunderstanding, on the status of the bridge.
However, Why can't we simply have our half? I've already provided evidence of AcornBulb recognizing our border claims.

I was making a proposition which would hopefully satisfy both parties, after all I do not want conflict between people and I want to resolve this as quick as possible. The island really isn't that much land and acorn isn't really asking for a lot ;)

Anyway, I don't want to unaban you without Dewey's input as this is his ban appeal after all, see what he has to say and if my proposition sounds fair enough to him.

No.

There was an agreement that you didn't read.
The ENTIRE Island, is not yours to begin with. On the other hand, It's not even a large portion of it.
It's not "Splitting it" It's returning your land to you.
Your land was the other half of the Island, and the part that we both agreed to annex to Stuttgart (As you said)

I could have simply taken over the entire region that we annexed, and instructed you to leave, since you agreed that it wasn't yours.

I'm not that kind of person. I'm returning what is rightfully yours, and clinging on what belongs to our city.

We don't want your region anymore.
And what difference does it make, if you're willing to give up ALL your land, as opposed to a small dinky portion of an Island.

And I dont want a fence going through the middle of my property
And u agreed that if I annexed my land you will not kick me out of the city
Im not an idiot
I wouldn't have given you the land if you didnt agree to not kicking me out

The island really isn't that much land and acorn isn't really asking for a lot ;)

So you do recognize that He is the offensive party, and that we are the defensive one?
If so, I don't see the need to argue this anymore, Since we're being generous, and giving him his half of the Island. And keeping ours (The half that he has not touched yet).


The base of the Problem is whom the Island belongs to, And there are NO rules anywhere outside the city threads, that make it clear on what is valid claims or not.
Protection stones and project/city protection are both within the rules and very clear ways in which protection/claims area avalible. Borders around your area, be it walls or fences, are not protected or in the rules but easily define where your area is.

Would you be willing to settle if the bridge to your land was to be removed and the fence over Acorn's land were both to be removed, and your fence move around the island and surrounding water? Acorn is happy to remove the bridge if you are willing to move the fence onto the edge of your land? :)
As for the protection stones. The city thread *And lawbook* was created as a replacement to the protection stones, given that the subject agrees to the law.
I mean, we could have just included his land, But he doesn't obey by the rules, and that's why it was returned.


We may be willing to settle for that.
Provided that I am pardoned for the misunderstanding, on the status of the bridge.
However, Why can't we simply have our half? I've already provided evidence of AcornBulb recognizing our border claims.



After being banned you are saying this
Before u bad a huge fuss about this
I voluntarily said u can have ALL the land and make a Fence Around it
But you didn't agree
And now u want to split it?
No.

There was an agreement that you didn't read.
The ENTIRE Island, is not yours to begin with. On the other hand, It's not even a large portion of it.
It's not "Splitting it" It's returning your land to you.
Your land was the other half of the Island, and the part that we both agreed to annex to Stuttgart (As you said)

I could have simply taken over the entire region that we annexed, and instructed you to leave, since you agreed that it wasn't yours.

I'm not that kind of person. I'm returning what is rightfully yours, and clinging on what belongs to our city.

We don't want your region anymore.

I never promised that.
I'm returning the land that we annexed (Despite not having to)
The Island is NOT your property, and Your only claim to it is "Because I don't like you".

On the other hand, I've provided multiple proofs of your statements, The law book, the map, and the dates.

I've been wrongfully banned, and unjustly attacked.
/island dispute please?

It's not your Island, That's the argument here.
The Island is not yours to give away.

You don't have a single shred of proof that the Island is yours, other than the fact that you UNLAWFULLY built on it, While it was still ours.
Plus, We don't even have a claim to the entire Island, just our half.

(click to show/hide)

The Island is related to the ban appeal, as I've said MULTIPLE times. I was banned because DeweyMeister recognized that the bridge is part of the Island. (Which is also connected to our main-land)

Your replies are preposterous.

I'm going to lock this topic for now untill Dewey (or an admin) responds. This is only going to bounce back and forwards and wont go anywhere. I'm sorry but you are all being as childish as eachother, it's such a small island, we could just remove the island and the problem is then gone.

Best solution in my opinion, but I don't have the power to do this.

It's been sorted out, was a misunderstanding that got out of control. I spoke to both parties and both are semi happy with the result. The grief was minor and part of the misunderstanding so I will pardon Tabooti.

Tobs and I came to these conclusions.
