Hi there.

Recently, a website made was by K3Feedz that was bought by Ajdin/Mick (whoever owned MCM at the time).

Many users were banned for advertising it, including a user named Shortninja.

As the domain now redirects to MCM, you should unban the users that advertised it /promoted it /linked people to it.

I'd love to hear your feedback!
Regards

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

That's beside the point. If any users followed the old adverts they'd come right back to MCM.
Of course they would. The idiots who advertised and got banned thought they were going to a better site. When the site failed they ended up with nothing. It's only logical that they want to come back but they broke the rules, and don't deserve to come back. Let's not forget that the majority of the users who advertised came back to the site by ban evading which is breaking another rule altogether.

I used to be a big deal on here but now irrelevant

I don't mind users going to other sites. In fact, it's not bad at all since it raises some competition for me (which is non existent atm) which is always fun.

These users could have simply left MCM and moved on somewhere else but they decided to ruin other's their experience by spamming and whatnot which they know themselves wasn't effective at all.

Cocky much? Kappa
I'd honestly love some competition. Without real competition you're the one shaping the market and business which can be very risky and impacting.

If any users followed rules they wouldn't be banned.
I dont see what you don't get. If the users that originally followed the adverts came back, they would go to MCM. Therefore the advertising bans are invalid.

I suggest you unban these users and give them a 2nd chance. If they do anything to break the rules, their gone.

They broke rules knowing that they would be banned for it. We told them not to, and if they did, they would be perm banned, yet they did it anyway. What they did can be forgiven, yes, but should they be unbanned? Absolutely not.
