St. Daniel's Cemetery

St. Daniel's Cemetery contains gravestones for all "infamous" banned players. To enter into St. Daniel's, a player must have been relatively well known in the server, or have a reputation among the leadership, and then receive a ban for an unconventional or outstanding reason.

SafetyMoose - June 25, 2011

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Drama Queen"
 * SafetyMoose was banned for "being a drama queen." There was unrest when SafetyMoose (then an Officer, equivalent to the modern Moderator) began attacking other players against their will. At the time, this was against the rules. As a result of the drama that ensued, SafetyMoose was demoted and banned soon after. As a result of this incident, a plugin was temporarily introduced allowing players to toggle PVP on or off. Much later, the issue was reopened and several changes to PVP rules were made.
 * After SafetyMoose was banned, he began posting forged chat logs on MC Badlands ' threads on other websites to try to deter people from joining. Membership increased exponentially, however, regardless of this fraudulent act. Safetymoose eventually went on to start a hardcore server with ex-VIP players Cheetum and Castanaveras. According to the stats on planet minecraft, they have about 6 members.
 * Update: Since his banning, SafetyMoose has remained in the cemetery, but both Cheetum and Castanaveras have become active, successful members of MC Badlands again, and have purchased new VIP packages.

Friendcool99 - July 06, 2011

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Abuse of Power"
 * Banned for abusing power. It was early July when Friendcool99 became unhappy with the Badlands. He began abusing Moderator commands to kick and ban those who he did not favor, rather than those who broke rules. He also began illegally spawning items and creating large structures made out of diamond blocks. The day he was demoted and banned, he was caught creating a grave for himself with slurs about other Moderators written on it. The Real Estate Board was built where this grave was originally placed.
 * Update: Friendcool99 connected briefly to the server on January 3, 2012. He looked around and said hello to many old friends. He is still in the cemetery, but was able to connect due to the Ban list being reset after the merger. This was 182 days (5 months and 29 days) after his banishment.

pwnage10 - July 10, 2011

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Drama Llama"
 * Banned for "Not saving the drama for the llama". Was responsible for lots of drama posts about other players. Became a "whiner" and always had something to complain about. Eventually he crossed the line when he continued to post drama-laden threads about his disagreements with other staff and players after being warned that continuing to do so would result in a ban. At one point, several months later, he posted some negative comments on various Badlands YouTube videos which were deleted promptly.

justinpiu - July 13, 2011

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Lava Griefing"
 * Banned for griefing with lava. At first glance, this seems like it is a very conventional reason to get banned. In this case, though, it's different. Justin found a way to exploit a plugin and get infinite supplies of items. This resulted in his attaining hundreds, if not thousands, of diamonds, as well as stacks of lava buckets, which he used to destroy parts of the server. Areas he attacked included the Badlands Logo and the Badlands Mall. Little known to justin, however, everything could easily be fixed, and all the damage he caused was rolled back within an hour of his banning. Justin was one of only two VIPs ever banned, the second being djonfire29 (below).

djonfire29 - August 08, 2011

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Stupidity"
 * Banned for flying. The catch here is that he was banned once, appealed it, and got banned for the same thing a second time ALL on the day he paid for and was promoted to VIP. Nothing else can be said for this unintelligent being.

Kenpache - August 25, 2011

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Ignorance"
 * Initially banned along with several others following the infamous "nazi" incident. They all changed their skins to nazi uniforms and berated a Badlands player from Germany. Several other bumbling escapades followed, including forums spam and other nonsense. they were eventually "bitch slapped" by Andy, when he traced their IP's, contacted their internet service providers, and called their Moms! Only Kenpache is interned in St. Daniel's since he was the first one to be banned, and it seemed like a waste of space to put all the "minions" in there with him. Other offenders were Arrrogance, Taylormcgowan, a few others.

Deaddog909 - September 19, 2011 & April 11, 2015

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Twice Interred"
 * Banned after the server changeover for 1.8. He was unhappy with the new environment, and was banned for being a drama llama and trying to lag the server. He appealed the ban in October of 2011, and was subsequently unbanned. This marks the first and only time a player has "come back from the dead" after being buried at St. Daniel's.
 * He has subsequently been re-entombed in St. Daniel's due to being perma-banned for continuous drama with other staff members.

lolhouse - November 29, 2011

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Honorary Afterthought"
 * Added to St. Daniel's Cemetery many, many days after his banning. He had originally been banned in Old Badlands, but was never considered to be "infamous". After he came up in a discussion between AndyFox42 and Docithe, it was decided that he would be added to the cemetery as an "Honorary Afterthought". Not much is remembered about the circumstances surrounding his ban.

xXLuisGarciaXx - December 15, 2011

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Three Strikes"
 * Banned for "Three Strikes". Luis had been a member of MC Badlands for a few weeks before he was banned. He had been at the center of several conflicts within the server membership. The day before he was banned, December 14, 2011, he claimed another player had killed him with lava and that he had lost a Silk Touch item. This, however, was simply an attempt by Luis to get an admin to replace an item that had never existed. This was discovered by Docithe because just earlier that day, Luis had asked if admins could create enchanted items. After this, he was told that he would be banned if he was involved in any more server issues. In the mid-afternoon of December 15, Luis griefed nnccmm's dungeon, and later claimed that Docithe had given him permission. When he stated publicly that he hadn't, Luis claimed it might have been TJK99, who was then called in. He too, denied it, and Luis then claimed it had actually been Cordestian. This is when nnccmm banned him.

Direct1221 - January 23, 2012

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Work Week"
 * While Direct1221 is not officially banned as of yet, he was interned in St. Daniel's Cemetery after he turned his back on the server following his alleged accidental deletion of server files which resulted in a five-day rollback in early 2012. Thus his tombstone, "Work Week". This incident came to be known as Direct's Derp.

Deathpheonix - January 25, 2012

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Diamonds"
 * Deathpheonix was banned late on the night of January 24, 2012 after a vigorous investigation by Feckyeslife revealed that he was abusing his powers as a Trial Moderator to duplicate diamonds and diamond blocks, amassing an estimated total of 720 Diamond Blocks in his inventory. Some of his diamonds were also given to ZC50 who was banned at the same time. They were discovered when an anonymous Badlands Builder tipped off the administration that ZC50 had thousands of diamonds for sale in his shop. Feckyeslife then traced these back, through the use of chat logs, log block, and witnesses, to Deathpheonix who was then banned.

Iaccidentally - May 2, 2012

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Not Essential After All"
 * Although Iaccidentally is not officially banned from MC Badlands, he was interned in St. Daniel's Cemetery honorarily, since he was removed from his staff posting and allegedly quit Minecraft as a result.

woolsome - July 26, 2012

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Llama"
 * Finally perma-banned after five offenses and two bans. This long-term member of MC Badlands was granted a chance to appeal his permaban by the server owners, but it was denied by the server staff, thus ending woolsome's time on the server. His grave stone reads "Llama".

dansmith900 - September 8, 2013

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Copycat"
 * Banned for making a copy-cat server of MC Badlands and trying, unsuccessfully, to advertise it to take members away from the Badlands.

Cordestian - June 18, 2016

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Above the Law, Under the Ground"
 * AKA: liberatus20
 * Banned after continually pushing the limits of the rules. He seemed to believe he was "above the law", having previously been a staff member. This proved to not be true when he was banned for using exploits after many, many staff warnings.

werabred - February 18, 2017

 * Their epitaph on their tombstone reads: "Nine Lives Up"
 * AKA: boot819, stophackingplz
 * Banned after gathering more rules violations than any other Badlander. He was given constant warnings and eventually went too far.

ZombieKiller - January 08, 2012

 * Little is known about this player. He was added unofficially and for unknown reasons to the cemetery by TheActionMan, who was later jailed for this grief. The grave was then removed. A picture of it can be seen in the gallery box at the bottom of this page.



TehBigCheese2 - February 14, 2012

 * It is unclear who this player even is. His grave suddenly appeared on the morning of Valentine's Day, 2012. Logblock determined that he had interned himself and left the note "Gone for Good!"

Funerals
Funerals are small ceremonies hosted when a notable member is first banned and a grave is prepared for them in St. Daniel's Cemetery.

xXLuisGarciaXx (First Funeral)
On December 15, 2011, the first ever funeral was held at St. Daniel's Cemetery. It was for xXLuisGarciaXx who was banned earlier that day for griefing. Docithe had always quietly added people to the cemetery, but felt that it might be nice to try hosting a "funeral" of sorts to properly send off well-known banned players. There was, surprisingly enough, a fairly good turnout at xXLuisGarciaXx's funeral. Attendees included Docithe, nnccmm, Gundamned100, 8bit_squirrel, hao3grif, Mandavel, Mindkr1m3, Castanaveras, and Dannyprkr. When the funeral began, Docithe delivered the following eulogy: At this time, people threw in items for Luis's grave (see picture). Luis' grave now stands there. The ceremony was short, but the grave shall remain there forever. Docithe was very pleased with the ceremony, and expressed interest in continuing with funerals for "infamous" banned players.
 * Eulogy:
 * Docithe: We are here today
 * Docithe: To honor a fallen Badlander
 * Docithe: He had an impact on many of us
 * Docithe: Built many cool looking houses
 * Docithe: He lived in the Mushroom Kingdom
 * Docithe: This man is xXLuisGarciaXx
 * Docithe: He was with us for several weeks.
 * Mindkr1m3: he liked shovels
 * Docithe: And he was permanently banned after a griefing incident earlier today.
 * Docithe: He did
 * Docithe: He did like shovels.
 * Docithe: So
 * Docithe: if you wish to throw in anything for him
 * Docithe: Please do so
 * Final Words:
 * Docithe: Does anybody else want to say a few words?
 * Mandavel: So one falls, another arises.
 * Mandavel: Luis shall return one day, either in his form or another.
 * TalulaDervish: *whipers* it's a very touching ceremony.
 * Castanaveras: .... rest forever

DeathPheonix
A funeral for this player was held on January 25, 2012 at St. Daniel's Cemetery. There was a massive turnout at the service, which was lead by Docithe who gave the eulogy once again. DeathPheonix was banned late on the night of January 24, 2012 after a vigorous investigation by Feckyeslife revealed that he was abusing his powers as a Trial Moderator to duplicate diamonds and diamond blocks, amassing an estimated total of 720 Diamond Blocks in his inventory. Some of his diamonds were also given to ZC50 who was banned at the same time.

woolsome
Woolsome's funeral took place long ago and was never recorded. As such, the details of this event may have been permanently lost to time.

werabred
Wera's funeral attracted quite a gathering of players to say their "goodbyes". Among the tributes thrown into wera's grave were glowstone, diamond swords, different types of food, and dirt. Docithe also threw in a diamond block from wera's private stash in his Ender Chest. Several people, including modub605, DrifterEmber, Aqua_Bubble, Charman98, _ShadowHunterDK, and Tex215 came forward to speak about their experiences, both positive and negative, with this player. He was officially banned on 18 Feb 2017 at 12:59 PM [ET] and his funeral was held within the hour, ending around 01:37 PM [ET].

Re-Internment 01 Jan 2021
During the second part of the 2020 Badlands Ball, the server assembled to relive Badlands history as Docithe re-created St. Daniels for the current server iteration.

History/Trivia

 * The Cemetery was originally created on the Original Badlands map on July 5, 2011. Following the conversion to what is now referred to as the Old Badlands, the Cemetery was recreated on September 19, 2011. It was recreated once again on January 3, 2012 following the conversion to the New Badlands. It was again remade in January 2016 for the 1.8.8 update. It the only Landmark to have been present during all generations of MC Badlands' history.
 * St. Daniel's Cemetery was created after the banning of Friendcool99. Only one other banned player was interned before him - SafetyMoose.
 * The flowers that can be seen in the graveyard today were not originally placed there. Since the banning of different players, others have come and left the flowers for them.
 * Docithe is considering removing djonfire29 since the reason for his banning is borderline conventional.
 * There used to be a sign hanging outside the cemetery that read "Please no spitting. I have to clean that, you know." from Docithe.
 * St. Daniel's Cemetery is named after Docithe, whose real name is "Daniel".
 * All other banned players used to be put in St. Andrew's Cemetery, but we have since realized there is no point.
 * On December 15, 2011, the first ever funeral was held at St. Daniel's Cemetery for xXLuisGarciaXx who was banned earlier that day.
 * Deaddog909's, Direct1221's, and xXLuisGarciaXx's are the only three graves in the cemetery that have a bed at the bottom. The other graves simply have soul sand beneath the stone.
 * Neither Iaccidentally nor Direct1221 had funerals held when they were added to the cemetery, as neither of them were yet banned from the server officially.
