The Great Red Jailbreak of 2014

[DeadlyApostle]

Most people believed it was the mass unbannings that happened when Kunark was released.

You use the word "jailbreak" like you weren't the ones that unbanned the characters. Most people who had characters banned and still played here apparently had other characters, and were probably just eager to get dropable gear into the hands of their new mains. It doesn't necessarily prove wrong-doing. For instance, if you had a 55 ench banned with an AoN on it and your new main was a 60 enchanter, wouldn't you want that item on the level 60? And wouldn't you be excited to do it?

Also, you banned the accounts, not the items. Most people, even if they felt they were not supposed to be un-banned, had that distinction in mind.

best geared shaman, best of the best winner, been on server since day 1. almost 2 years of work (however long server been live) gone for accepting a manastone.

it was fun server while it lasted

a manastone that was available through a server error mind u. not like you figured out a way to hack a banned account and pull it. they inadvertently enabled the behavior and are now punishing to the highest degree over it, sucks.

It's not an admission of guilt if you only come clean after you've been sent to jail.

Also, 500+ items were removed in 24 hours, and we don't have unique identifiers on items, meaning we'd have to either:

A) Go through, by hand, logging in each character and deleting all the items or,
B) I'd have to send 30 different SQL delete queries to Rogean for the inventory tables on each character to delete the items.

Neither is worth the effort to get some dirty whistles unbanned, particularly when all that needed to be done was notify the staff prior to jailbreaking your banned toon's items. If the first thing you did upon logging in your banned toon was strip it, you obviously knew something was up.

while I respect the volunteer work provided here, man can it be harsh sometimes.. the best thing to do is just not do questionable shit, but i feel that there isn't enough of the responsibility being taken on the server part for their part in this, i can guarantee you that not every single person who accepted an item knew the intent, and its just shitty.

Judging from this and other comments, i take it that nihilum are the ones taking the brunt of these bannings?

If the intent of the bannings was to damage nihilum, then (and i don't mean this sarcastically) job well done. Esp if it was all entrapment from the beginning. I mean damn.

But I honestly don't see the GMs on this server being so unprofessional as to ban accounts rather than correct their mistakes. I just don't. Especially with them trying to jump on the Pantheon coat tails. There had to be ulterior motives.
