I'm still not quite sure why it's pretty strange tbh I'll try to describe it as well as possible: Character Name:HotBuddha [the big and mighty] Last thing you did:Talked to a gm with some 10~ other characters in fm, about something I didn't do which I'll further describe in the following: Why do you think you got banned?: Not why I think, but rather why I know haha. It started out a clear friday morning, I was 2 hours late to work so they suspended me and as I had nothing worthwhile to do at the moment I figured bust it, lets play some MapleStory. So I logged in and played a little, after a while I decided that I want to get to 40 fame. So I went to the FM to purchase some with my fair money(quite needless to say I paid for every single one). After buying some (around 100m worth) Somebody decided that they wanted more than 5m, it was a female character that I didn't even see beforehand who has decided to follow me around and try to defame me(which I could've reported for continued harrassment but I didn't because I'm a good person). I kept telling her that She's not gonna get more than 5m and that she should knock it off, and she kept saying things along the lines of "If you can spend 5m on one fame you can give me more" "don't be cheap" and then escalated to things like "I can get you banned you know, I can call a lot of people", when she saw that I'm not intimidated by those empty threats(or perhaps not so empty if it had actually worked in fooling the GM) she started spreading lies about me saying that I scam people for fame and apparently she got a group of people, be it from her guild, buddies, random characters who wanted to split the profit of blackmailing a wealthy character, or w/e , to follow me around and defame me until I gave them more. Apparently, they found out that I had a lot of money since I had some pretty sweet items as well, and certainly- wanted a piece. So I spent the day getting rude threats, Smegas and whispers from a group of people threatening to get me banned and unrighteously so. Needless to say I kept ignoring those bullies and kept playing and enjoying myself. after 3 people out of this group kept whispering me "go to gm17" "get the f*** to fm17" and other rather rude things that I shouldn't mention, I changed to my 2nd character "lmKool" so they cannot defame my main character and went there to face the bullies. There there was a nicely dressed GM whose name I don't remember nor do I really care about to be honest - After all it's not my job to remember GM names. So we started talking about the aforementioned false accusations, and as a joke I figured I'd say I'm not HotBuddha(and I'm pretty sure it's not against the game rules to not admit my other character names, correct me if I'm wrong. Especially next to some 10~ other characters.) At a certain point the GM whose name I don't know said he could accuse me for account sharing, to which I replied "I could've been hacked, who knows, but I'm not account sharing. That's for sure" Had the GM called me to a room of GMs or alternatively simply requested that I'd talk more seriously, I wouldn't have missed a single detail to tell them, and with great accuracy. Eventually a few seconds later some character, whoever it was, said they'd send a certain message, the GM said OK, and then I got my account either deleted or blocked from connection. I'm not quite sure what exactly made that-perhaps rookie GM- reach the conclusion that I deserve to be punished on the basis of what some bullies had told him and what screenshots, either fake or simply taken out of context, they sent him. (as a side note I'd state that somebody followed me to Henesys hunting ground and at a certain point said "I took a screenshot of this chat and you'll get banned" so that could be a part of the aforementioned ""proof"". But either way I am well aware of my innocence and quite frankly, after all the things said, disagreeing to give me my account back along with the FM3 spot that I had should reveal a very mediocre and lackluster administration of the server. Thank you for reading Ban message when attempting to log in: This ID has been deleted or blocked from connection please try again What GM banned you (optional)on't remember
You were banned for account sharing. You'll need to wait for one of the admins to investigate past that (I'm just here to tell you the ban reason!)
Wow, so that's the reason huh? It's rather insulting to the intelligence to say the least. this is the reason the GM chose to ban me... It is most obvious that I was joking and as I've stated in the original post- after he suggested that I'm account sharing I immidiately replied with "I might have been hacked, who knows. But account sharing I'm not". It doesn't take the most brilliant mind to realize I was joking. And furthermore, basing an account DELETION / BLOCK entirely on such statement is absolutely ridiculous. If anybody should get blocked after this whole ordeal it should be either the group of extortionists that spent an entire day harrassing and defaming me(both verbally with smegas as well as reducing my fame-point in bunches) for my money, or the GM who made that baseless decision to block me-the person who was bullied in the first place. Either way I'm utterly dissatisfied with your answer at the moment.
The "rookie" GM is an admin. Also, admitting to account sharing is a bannable offense. So far, we are not convinced by what you have said.
Admitting to account sharing? That's absolutely preposterous. Do you even notice what you're saying? Let's make some order out of this mess: For one it's completely obvious that the GM originally came because of this ridiculous group of players(liars would be a better term), got convinced by their, pardon me for saying, BS accusations. Secondly it's known and I'm sure he'll tell you too, that he didn't hear A SINGLE accusation of account sharing, and that the entirety of them were about the alleged fame-fraud. To top it off he basically decided to block me for something else completely(which is the alleged account sharing) since he had later realized that there's no basis in banning me for these ridiculous accusations of me fame-scamming, and figured he'd block me for practically anything. And if you wanna be technical about it? You can check exactly when I logged and to which player and you'll find out that I spent overall about 5 minutes on "lmKool" and 99.9% of the time on "HotBuddha", so does that sound like account sharing to you? I didn't lvl up once on "lmKool", didn't do anything except for going to buy bathrobes and give them to HotBuddha (which is legal, unless you will suddenly decide it's not and ban me for that as well) So not only are you ignoring my complaint about these 10~ people whom in my opinion should be all banned for ruining the game, but you're also not paying any attention to what I'm saying regarding the "account sharing". So basically based on what you're saying: 1) all it takes to get someone banned is to record them wittily saying anything that COULD be interpreted as account sharing and bust their balls. Which is a joke since obviously the GM saw himself that I wasn't being serious about anything, why should I be serious about such a joke? 2) You're also assuming everyone is dead serious and can't make jokes, forgetting that we're humans and humans have a sense of humor. 3) And to top it off- you're supporting the GM's flawed(biased would be a better word) way of jumping to conclusions: Lets pretend not being human would get you banned- are you a human? -maybe not, but I could be, who knows(does that sound like a yes or no to you? It's a completely vague answer) banned for not being a human! Since when "maybe not" is "no" ? Since when "I could be, who knows" means nothing? If you analyze the situation without being closed-minded you would easily see the misjudgement of that GM. I'd say this is exactly how the conversation went down, except for the part about being human of course, it's just an example to show you how ridiculous it is. It is more than obvious that he believed the item extortionists' story and basically decided to be a vigilante and 'bust' me for something I didn't do. How flawed is your judgement, that in your opinion it's enough to get a person kicked from the server? So basically you can't make a joke to a GM. He's just another person and if I joke with other characters why is joking with him a crime? Did I offend him personally? No. So what's the problem? The problem in a nutshell is that the GM was biased towards the extortionists' and believed their version of the story just because they're 10 and I'm 1. It is totally and utterly ridiculous to see an admin(and you confirmed that he's an admin) behave in this ameteurish manner. Perhaps not to you: but if that's the case, it should only expose how unprofessional this server is. It is grossly biased and indecent to simply accept their accusations as the ultimate "truth" on the basis of nothing. And honestly I'm quite repulsed by how this server's management works and I hope everyone who sees this post will think twice about playing on your server after what I've been through
I was in-game preforming GM duties as a lot of attention in smegas was brought to HotBuddha and his alleged fame buying scam. I decided to meet up with the people that were talking about this to find out more about this story, you also decided to join on your other character ImKool, stirring up the people against yourself for some reason, claiming you paid yourself for faming yourself. I don't know what you've been dreaming up but I banned you for making a believable claim to account sharing based on what you said to me in-game. Your behavior on ImKool and your claim of not being hotbuddha can be directly found in your chatlogs: Spoiler I myself was saying the following during that time: Spoiler Even after I told you that you were on the same game account as hotbuddha you claimed: 'i promise its not me' 'im imkool' 'maybe' 'but its not me' 'it could be my brother' 'could be that i got hacked' Since you promised it was not you logged in on hotbuddha yet he's on the same game account as yours you have been banned for making a believable claim to account sharing. I ceased the investigation towards your alleged scamming as your current ban overrules that in duration anyway (permanent).
