I just found out that if you're suspended on one account, you can still play on another (that's what Steaks is doing now. He plays on a mage named Chocobo to pass the time while his warrior is suspended). I think this is ridiculous, I may as well put all of my characters on different accounts so that I can basically exploit with impunity on each of them. I mean here you have a person who clearly has bad intentions, he exploited a mob in a really egregious way because he thought he wouldn't get caught, and his "punishment" is that he gets to level up an alt for the next week. This same person does nothing but spam the forums with borderline unreadable posts that bash the staff. He's also repeatedly defended his actions and said that the server is not coded well enough so it's the devs' fault that he exploited. If a person like this is getting a second chance I hate to see which 2-boxers will be given leniency.
Why would you ever level 2 high characters on the same account anways??? Helps in many situations, specially the ones you said above. Same reason people use banks instead of hiding money under their mattress, not for the awsome .0000000% interest, to protect themselves.
