Strange
 
So I am in kurns tower a few min ago on my 13 enchanter, I get in a group just pulling the first big room, after several pulls my screen goes black and then after a few seconds the login screen comes up.

So I re-enter my info thinking I just got D/C'd, and connect, go to the project 1999 server and recieve a msg stating this account has been banned, so i exit and try it again, same msg, so i check my email, no messages saying this is going to happen or why, log in here, no msgs stating it was happening or why.

I am very new to p-99, so I have no clue how to contact anyone for answers, I got no warnings or notice that there were any issues, what the heck could a brand new to the server person do that would result in a ban that fast with no warnings? I dont have any addons or third party programs running and only have the one account.

Have you read the rules?

If you didn't break any of them then I'd suggest submitting a thread in the petition/exploits section of the forum. A GM should contact you about why you got banned.

jim45682 07-25-2011 04:48 AM

yea I read the rules, and didnt break any of them, the only one on there that looks like they will ban without warning is 2-boxing and I only have the one account.

I submitted a thread under the petitions forum but in an hour no responces.

It may take a little while for a response - but the petition forum is your best bet.

I have petitions from over a year ago that are unanswered.

lol jk~ well I do have unanswered petitioned from then, but what I mean to say is give it a bit longer than an hour, Mr. 4AM (eastern) petitioner. Probably closer to 15 hours for them to even wake up and get home from work.

There are other things we ban for without warning. No discussion about the matter can take place outside of the petition/exploits forum though.

I haven't banned anyone in at least 5 days so, it wasn't me.

Ektar is both right and wrong here. Yes. give it more time. Far more than 15 hours most likely....

It might be several days before you get a response depending on the volume of posts in the petition forum. My best advice to you is to be patient and not throw a hissy fit. I have no idea what happened so don't know what your situation is.

Good Luck!

**EDIT**

To be clear - the italicized green part above is just in general. not saying you are throwing a hissy fit here - i'm just saying don't freak out and be rude or indignant because it took a week to get a response.

ShowEQ is another thing they ban for I believe. If all you were doing was playing the game with no funky software on your system etc. then I would suspect that you'll be playing in no time. If you have any oddball stuff running, come clean here and let us know (since you decided to start this thread in the first place). In most cases of bans and suspensions, we never find out what really happened as the server policy is to not discuss these specifics in forums and the person banned / suspended usually pleads innocence when in fact there was something else happening. It would be refreshing to hear the full facts from the player for once. They don't ban / suspend you without reason.

the only thing I have installed even eq related is the Duxa's auto updater and I have been using that to launch the game, but that "program" is found right here on these forums in a sticky, so I higly doubt that would do it.

The only other thing I can think of is, while in kurns getting some help leveling from my friend, a shadowknight was "tapping" our mobs, I asked him to please stop and he got nasty about it so I /reported him, maybe he is/was looking for a little revenge and made some stuff up? but you would think that sort of thing would be investigated and verified before banning, or at least communication as to the reasons.
