    Character Name: MoehKawkah
    Last thing you did: -
    Why do you think you got banned?: -
    Ban message when attempting to log in: -
    What GM banned you (optional): -

    My account with the character "Nejger" has been banned now for 72 hours for offensive name. Today is my x'mas holiday and i'm at my family's place, and my brother is playing maplestory. I agreed on the name-change, since it can be offensive (which was not my intention). I can log-in to my account when the server restarts, but the time spectrum of this i have zero information about. I'm now at my family's place (no longer ip banned since its another ip) so i thought i could play on my other account, but no.

    1) My name was not meant to be offensive, it's a swedish slang me and my friends use for a specific drug (which was the theme of the names, yes).
    2) > 72 hour ban for this, on all my accounts? Is this really reasonable?
    3) Let me be clear. I can log on to my other account, but that would result in all my accounts permanently getting banned, apparently.
    4) I can not vote on my account while i'm at my brothers place, because that would result in us both getting permabanned and ip banned.

    Is this really a reasonable punishment?
    Reason i made this post now, and not 72 hours ago is because i never though the ban would last this long and fk up my holiday lan party

    1. Apparently whatever slang you think it is, is not acceptable to us.
    2. Yes.
    3. Correct. Because you're currently banned for an offense. Attempting to create an account and play it while serving a ban is considered as ban-evading.
    4. No, unless you've been approved in the whitelist which you are not.

    1) I agree, i changed it
    2) How is this ban reasonable? Why are your laws so strict on a private mapleserver?
    4) I sent the whitelist appeal 2 days ago? Brother has made a thread aswell.

    It's reasonable simply because we don't want players with offending IGNs walking around in the game, and us receiving tons of reports saying "Hey this dude has an offensive IGN".

    I've repeated that umpteen times. Once your IGN is changed in the next server check.
