Lol he bought some character in EC that was flagged for MQ they banned the account then eccezan got it fixed.

if anything TMO got ripped off

even if we did believe that story, which most of us probably dont. it still doesnt excuse it. ignorance of the law does not absolve you from guilt

Eccezan's Alt Holyspawn was banned. Please log him in Ecc :D

Thebest was also banned. I just thought I'd name the thread with Eccezan directly and not his scrub alt #5 VP geared alt, he wasn't stupid enough to use MQ on his main. He is a tool, but not entirely ;)

This.

Although, to be honest, I had always thought that GM's banned MQ flagged accounts in an proactive manner, rather than a one off, manual "oh this account is flagged for MQ, must ban now" manner. At least up until the Bouncerr scandal.

Of course, while selling accounts for platinum has always been "frowned upon" but not illegal, I suppose one can argue that its buyer beware in situations like this.

As an aside, I guess that everyone whose ever purchased an account is in danger of that account being flagged for MQ at the time of purchase and being banned at a random time in the future, regardless of whether they actually used it or not. Something that can be fixed, if all MQ flagged accounts were banned on the spot (which I'm sure can be handled by a constant running script or something)

shouldn't3 you guy's corpses be in VP already?

I heard a couple of you got past the first set of mobs before taking a dirt nap.

Ignorance of the law does not absolve you from mandatory participation in the adjudicatory process. The account was banned, and he plead his case before a legitimate decision making authority.

Why is that difficult to accept? It's entirely possible he used MQ himself, however it would have been incredibly reckless. Say what you will about TMO's leadership, but it is anything but sloppy when it comes to issues such as this.

id be interested to see what zones these characters that were flagged with mq are frequently found in

Theres nothing really to spin here, you got banned for MQ.
