Dear Loka Community,Im Sangeros. I was banned on 11/29/2023 for abusing a bug(dupe). Me and Johreax decided to create a town. The purpose of this town was to create a team to build a nice town and participate in conquest. However, we needed one more person to create the town. We thought of Apochyras, who is not active on the server. So we called him and said, “We're going to create a town and we need one more person to create it. Can you join and stay AFK from time to time?” and he said, ”Okay, sure.”. So we set off to create the town. After we created the town, we saw a few shack-like places that were left over from the people who made a town here before us. So we made them unraidable to use them till we build the actual town, we put our things there for a short time. Now it was time to make a place for ourselves, so we got to work. We made a small build underneath and moved our things underground; now we were safe. We needed to level up the town to make it more useful. While Johreax was upstairs clearing the grass and wood, I was downstairs cooking stuff and expanding our space. We were both grinding town levels and grinding stuff. Our stuff didn't fit in the regular chests anymore, so we crafted void storages. We realized that we could open the storage at the same time as we were putting stuff in. Johreax; "We can duplicate items from here and we can level up the town faster and we don't need to collect build materials as well,” he said. I told him that this is something that we should not do. After a while, he said, “We won't hurt other players and we'll do it for our own town,” so I decided to do it. Now the town level started to progress very fast and we could get build items without spending time. This caused us to get bored of the server early and we were both less active on the server. We were building and tidying up our town during the time we were in it. I wanted to finish building our town as soon as possible, because I knew we wouldn't have much more time. I said, “Let's not use this exploit(dupe) anymore,” so as not to hurt the people playing on the server any more. We weren't duping any more items and after a few days we got a well-deserved ban... I apologize to all Loka players and thank you for taking the time to read this unban appeal.
