Many accounts have been banned for use of third-party cheating software.

Justice has been served.

There's new law in town. If you have considered cheating, don't do it.

If you receive a ban and believe it to be in error, create a petition thread with your account names and character names.

Never share your account information with others.

Safer streets, stronger communities. Keeping Norrath clean.

Where has this attitude been for three years? Sorry to be such a downer here, but this server and the GMs have had a pretty poor record with respect to dealing with cheaters. I'm glad that you're taking a much harsher approach, I really am, but I'm also very wary.

Obviously not around for The Massive Banning of August 2011.

Where da fuck you been for three years, br0?

Haha =D

Names please. Reputation concerns were a classic experience. Also I was told perma bans are actually only 6 months. A ruined reputation lasts forever.

That wouldn't work, and neither would MAC addresses. Proxies are easy to come by and not difficult to set up either. It's got to be tied to the account (and probably at the login server?) otherwise it wouldn't work.

I have a dynamic IP via DSL, and simply rebooting the modem would give me another IP address, sometimes drastically different.

What are you talking about?

Although nobody is willing to see this as a problem, the biggest problem is trading accounts. This is just a complicating factor. It's also not classic; it was against the TOS.

If we didn't allow people to change their email addresses, and at random intervals reset their passwords via email confirmation, I think there would be so much more accountability.
