Just to be clear, I spent a while before making the ban, because I wanted to be sure. now as I was exploring the stripmine/maze of which you were mining in, I found the 1st diamond area to be highly suspicious since you had to break at least 4 or 5 stone to even see the diamond, not to mention, the pattern of which you were mining in was not consistant. Heres the 1st location:

While exploring a bit more I found this last area (

Even then, I got 2 more opinions from 2 moderators on at the time, just to be sure. After they also confirmed It looked like xray, I then decided to make the final decision in banning you for Xray.
I understand what strip mining is, but the fact that you consistently mined in straight lines, then randomly branched off into diamonds just didn't look right.
