    IGN: Thizo / Cheetah
    Last thing you did: I was training my newly created character Cheetah in maple island.
    Why do you think you got banned?: I got banned because "of illegal charging/funding"
    Ban message when attempting to log in: Look at the screenshot. http://oi62.tinypic.com/rkzwuh.jpg
    What GM banned you (optional):


    I find this ban to be completely ridiculous, i have 2 accounts, one with my main character (Thizo) and this newly created character (Cheetah) on another account.
    I donated plenty of times on my main, and donated once more on my newly made character in order to support the server and to have a donated nx hat.
    My first donations were on August 5th and 6th. After my recent donation yesterday, i got banned today...
    I have used the same paypal account on everything, and payed everything.
    I can prove it by sending you my bank statements, i have nothing to lie about.
    I don't understand how it's "illegal" to use the ONLY method of payment which is PAYPAL.
    I play this server everyday and for long periods of time. I hope this is resolved quickly.
    This is not fair.

    The ban message you have received also applies to vote abuse. Please give us some time to review your case.

    How? I only vote once per day. Either 2 times on 1 account (8k NX) , or once per each account. (4k NX)...

    When I bring up your ban reason, it appears you were banned due to another character (IGN: Discreetly) being caught for vote abuse. I know Discreetly, and I've heard from others that you are a different player that knows him in real life.

    It is possible your votes and his may have gotten crossed from playing on the same IP. Please hold tight while an Administrator reviews your case.

    Yes I do know him in real life, we both know and follow the rules. It probably was just a misunderstanding. I hope that I can play shortly :)

    FjayCee voted 52 times this month, definitely more than they were supposed to. Additionally, I see your accounts have the exact same MAC and IP as Discreetly's so that's why you are part of the 7 day ban.

    That's hilarious, we don't even live near each other. We live in different parts of Montreal. How does he vote 52 times in 10 days??? (This month like you said)
    Moreover, we never saw each other this month. So, I don't know how it's possible that we have the same IP and MAC. Also, his been a member since March/April, do you think he would suddenly start vote abusing? It serves no purpose since he quit this game already, and gave his equipment away. I think it's being judged too quickly based on a "ip/mac" thing, it's an error.

    I have to ask the obvious question here: have you been logging into Discreetly's account recently? That's very much what it looks like according to our records.

    Oh! I remember now, he did come over a few days ago, and logged on to his account to check who was online, then logged off shortly. I think that's what is causing all this confusion?

    So which is it?

    Regardless, the accounts are associated, and thus why you are serving a 7 day ban for vote abuse.
