All Your Character Names: Estes, st0ragemule Last thing you did: snowman event before logging off Why do you think you got banned?: I guess its due to my robotic gameplay behavior while I was hunting for stoppers earlier on. There was this character (non-GM) going around every channel (I /find him) to check if the player was botting or not. I missed out on his earlier message when he typed "there?" as I was watching a show while hunting stoppers, subsequently he came to my channel again and typed there? again and I replied him this time round before he changed channel. What made me realised that I missed out his messages was due to the voluminous chat going on in my alliance where I freaked out and scrolled up to only realised I did not replied him when he came to my channel. I divert my attention from my show (on iPad) to the gamescreen (on my PC) from time to time to check for messages as I know that there would be random checks conducted to check for botting behaviors on stopper maps as I encountered another non-GM player checking on stoppers map while I was hunting for stoppers one-two weeks ago too (I replied him instantly). I was following through motion on my keyboard as it was a relatively easy map to hunt at for stoppers. This also explains my lack of attention on the gamescreen which seemingly lead to a "robotic gameplay". Ban message when attempting to log in: This is an ID that has been deleted or blocked from connection. What GM banned you (optional): Unsure.
You are correct, you were banned for macrobotting. You didn't respond for upwards of 3 minutes while doing repetitive actions, which is more than enough time to respond.
Thank you for your prompt response, it was my oversight that I should have focused more on the screen to aware such checkers that I am not illustrating such an undesirable behavior. As such, could I check would it be a temporary ban?
Due to the amount of time your character spent moving, attacking, and looting drops, and performing all of these different actions with no response from you, we have to assume you were macrobotting and as such the ban will remain permanently.
