    Character Name : Shifu, Nysa, Daizo, Commit
    Last thing you did : I haven't logged on in quite awhile and can no longer remember
    Why do you think you got banned : No clue
    Ban message when attempting to log in : This is an ID that has been deleted or blocked from connection
    What GM banned you (optional) : -

    I haven't logged into my account for quite awhile ( maybe 7-8 months?? ), when I attempted to log in yesterday, the ban message showed up. I initially thought it was a server error and proceeded to re-download Royals, to no avail. Please do enlighten me on the cause of my ban? if it actually is one. Thank you.

    upon further investigation I found some information that i'm concerned about so your ban will not be lifted at the moment. Your character Daizo wasn't hacked and I want you to explain the origin of the following:
    - 22 att shoes
    - 94/17 sleeve
    - 15 dex raccoon mask
    - 22 att cape
    - 22 att glove
    - 17k hp on Daizo

    I may not be able to recall every single equip source but I shall try my best, starting with :

    22 att shoes - self made with chaos, and I believe when I made them there were a few friends with me at that time - Mischyz and Miwako (maybe?)

    94/17 sleeve - bought that from selling my previous perf red craven - which I made myself from farming and using 30s for the first 4 slots - then ws +10 the rest

    22 att cape - honestly can no longer remember since I've had this equip awhile back - possibly made a 20 att and uptraded or something similar

    22 att glove - made a 20 att scg withs 30s on the first 3 slots and ws+10 on the rest (I think Mike (IGN : Hitta?) was witnessing this back then - sold this and bought the 22 att from a GM ( remember this clearly since it was a proud moment buying something from a GM haha )

    15 dex racc mask - also self made with chaos and possibly whites (cannot recall) - also had witnesses watching me do this (Mischyz / iRachel (or something similar) / Andu )

    As for the other general mesos I've earned are mostly from selling scrolled eqs with 30s - such as double golden dagger? / yellow work gloves / red cravens / FS / lots of INT rac masks / some Bowman and Warrior overalls. Hitta bought many of my equipments back then if that is traceable in the logs.
    I've also sold something in the forums which should be fairly easy to identify.
    Other meso comes from the occasional bossing and rare lucky gach drops and general merching (buy low sell high).

    I hope this explanation is thorough enough and helps with clearing up any suspicions. If further proof is required I will try my best to locate pictures of my old equips that I was proud of making and selling, although highly unlikely since I've deleted most of my old pictures due to storage space constraint.

    I started off with general merching and scrolling cheap gears, such as bath robes, and hp washing gears. From there, everything just snowballed and I moved on to scrolling and making more expensive equips, all the whole earning some spare mesos from general gacha.
    The rest is as stated on my earlier post.

    It has been 10 days since I’ve written this appeal, and almost a week since the last reply.
    I understand that the GMs have other responsibilities as well and I don’t mean to sound impatient. However, I hope you can understand my frustrations and how this seems from my POV. Hope to hear a reply soon and thank you for your time.

    dont you think its a bit strange all your explanations of items go back to multiple permanently banned people?

    Thanks for replying. I fail to see how exactly that deserves a ban? They watched me scroll it, and I knew Hitta was banned but wasn’t aware the rest were banned until very recently when I spoke to them ( I was on a 7-8 month hiatus in case you forgot ).
    Furthermore, I spoke to a few of my old guildies and one of them also witnessed the scrolling of multiple items - xGorden is his IGN I believe, and I don’t think he’s been banned

    Because the origin of your items linked to some banned players.

    The origin? I don’t understand. I made these equips myself through chaos, then sold them and bought stronger ones. How are they originating from banned players? And furthermore, how exactly would I know they would end up getting banned?

    I only quoted these IGNs as ‘witnesses’ but not once have I ever mentioned buying it from them, so why should it matter even if they are banned?

    Perhaps you can elaborate more here. It's super vague.
    What's your merching habit, when did you scroll what gear, what was the results of the scrolling, who did you sell to, on forum or in-game, etc.

    Since you said it "snowballed", means you're claiming you made a fortune within a short span. Prove that. Your job now is to convince us.

    Firstly I would like to correct the term ‘snowballed’. This term means that I earned a fortune, but it doesn’t however mean, that I did it over a short span of time. I’ve been playing this game for over 3 years now and it’s obviously impossible for anyone to recall when they sold every single item and what item they sold to whom...

    If the term snowballed gave you the perception that I earned everything in a short amount of time, then I apologize for using the term incorrectly.

    As for my marching habits, I mainly used 30% scrolls on everything and gamble by luck. The items that alwaaaays earn me the most meso are rac mask with int scrolls, red cravens with atk scrolls, and ywg with mattk scrolls

    I always prefer to sell in-game, unless the item couldn’t be sold for whatever reason, then only do I reach for a bigger crowd by using the forums

    Occasionally I go for bowman overalls with str scrolls, maple shields with mattk, and bathrobes for int

    I don’t know it this helps, but racc masks were my personal favorite. At one point in time, I kept buying them out till the prices inflated to almost 1.5x.
