You slow or something?

Not true. It clearly states, banned or suspended. If your banned it says it and if your suspended it says it
In which case I had an account "banned" for exactly 48 hours, you telling me they manually unban them? Sounds like needless extra work if there is a suspended option.

GMs are volunteering their time working for the creation of this free server for others, so it’s understandable that they view each account/player as being about as privileged as they can get. That being said they ban accounts sometimes blatantly for the greater good of their servers, justified or not, from training or killstealing disputes to aggressive economy changing farming. If you get an IP exemption with hopes of getting your Gf or anyone else into the game then you’ll be assumed as two boxing, and trying to get unbanned will be a time extensive process where you will likely just get mocked. Sometimes you just get unbanned by someone else without warning later on. I ended up getting a perma banned in the end for rmt, which braknar investigated for me twice, and said it was a sure thing (I was on break at the time). There is (or was) little to do about account security at the time since hackers roll over everything in any free service, and us privileged people wont get service like you would from a paid company. Point is don’t get an ip exemption, and don’t become too attached. Your playing here for free doesn’t come with any gaurantees and if your account shows anything weird then you’re just a burden at that point. My record on live stays clean, I have never been banned once. I know it’s a lot to read, but that’s my experience. Take care and good luck [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

This is correct. The messages are different.

Sharing your info isn’t the only way people will get your info. I’ll try not to feed the trolls much sorry, but seriously have you ever played a game where account infos weren’t hacked? The only difference here is the gm volunteers don’t have the time to worry about investigating, so they just handle it efficiently. Shit happens. May not like it but you’ll need to accept it, or bury your head in the sand and hope for the best

Where do you expect this explanation to be given? Think the GMs are gonna send an email telling you why? No, they just ban your ass and move on.

Ban is basically suspended without date. Unless you RMTd.

Sirken banned me once but was only for a month.

I got banned on three separate occasions all due to server staff errors, all were undone.

1) mellowyellow, a player on red back in the day, registered my name Heartbrand on a rmt website, then petitioned it here. Took a week to get unbanned.

2) someone made the name checkraise with an n instead of a r (my mains name), as a mule character for stripping someone’s account. Got banned for two days for that until they realized it wasn’t my character.

3) got banned for a week for being afk at cabilis zone in and being accused of training by some crazy ptsd guide before being cleared.

So while OP may be guilty of something, being banned is by no means proof that he actually did anything wrong at all.

You have presented yourself as completely innocent, I hope when the facts come out that this doesn't turn into a backfire thread my friend. Gods speed

EDIT: I'm lying I kinda want a good backfire thread
