MC-Market spacing with the symbols is weird, so here's the message you need to decode separated.

\`
~[\|
${
}[~=*~

Key, once again:
[-@=|%+^$<&}\~*(]_{)/:!#`;[DOUBLEPOST=1550359583][/DOUBLEPOST]It is an English sentence. No symbols or numbers in the decoded message.

It's a custom cipher.

There you go Message me your PayPal.

Solution:
Each symbol on the key (in order) is 1-26:

Spoiler

[ = 1
- = 2
@ = 3
= = 4
| = 5
% = 6
+ = 7
^ = 8
$ = 9
< = 10
& = 11
} = 12
\ = 13
~ = 14
* = 15
( = 16
] = 17
_ = 18
{ = 19
) = 20
/ = 21
: = 22
! = 23
# = 24
` = 25
; = 26

Getting the symbol's number, and matching it with the alphabet (1-26):

Spoiler

a = 1
b = 2
c = 3
d = 4
e = 5
f = 6
g = 7
h = 8
i = 9
j = 10
k = 11
l = 12
m = 13
n = 14
o = 15
p = 16
q = 17
r = 18
s = 19
t = 20
u = 21
v = 22
w = 23
x = 24
y = 25
z = 26

Gives you the solution.
