    @Muff - What is RWT solicitation? I've never spammed or scammed in Royals. Can I get more information on this ban?

    @Muff - I hope this can be looked more into as I've never traded for real world money. Not sure why I got banned randomly during the time I've been away. I am hoping to get un-banned and hop back in Royals for 2020. I truly had a great time 2 years ago playing this. I respect and follow rules and do not break them.

    you used the same account ID on a real world trade site as you do for mapleroyals to try to sell a 60 atk 13 luk dragon purple sleeve for real money.

    @Tim - That is impossible. I remember that purple sleeve you mentioned, and I remember either selling it to a friend, or holding on to it for him to hit level req.

    If you look into my account history you'll either see it sold, or held on to it for the time being; it was awhile ago. I am never one to cheat the system. I have a solid job and would've never spent my time trying to "real world trade" for a few dollars...I was a daily player at the time and well ingrained in the community.

    This doesn't make sense. I hope this can be correctly looked into and addressed as I'd love to hop back and contribute to Royals in my free time.

    @Tim - That last screenshot looks like some random account that was created in April 2016 (see "Join Date" in SS) that happened to have a similar claw. My post in your first screenshot has nothing to do with that, and was posted 2 years after (Jul 2018). This is so random. I don't even think I played Royals in 2016...

    In comms. with a old Royals friend on Discord just now as I'm typing this, I apparently may have even 30% scrolled the claw. I have literally never done much more than curse a bit too much in chat. I'm scratching my head on how this ban occurred. I am really looking forward to hopping back into Royals again, Tim. Please be logical about this.

    *Edit: Looks like I made my account Jan 5th, 2016. That being said, that random user who you screen-shotted who was attempting to real world sell his claw is completely separate claw. That account shows that the user trying to sell had 1 post in your screenshot, and the account was made in 2016. He obviously made that account just for that. My Royals post about that claw was 2018. I didn't even get the claw until 2018...Completely separate.

    there was only one claw with those stats in-game at the time of that advertisement on the rwt site, and that was yours.
    the post isnt in 2016, only the accoutn creation for that rwt site is

    @Tim - To me it obviously looks that the rwt site account created an account in Apr 2016, and shortly after posted that post. It truly looks like that rwt account was created for this purpose, having just 1 post...Can you please check on your end for claws in 2016 with those stats. I assume you will find one in 2016 as well. I have literally never posted about Royals anywhere but discord or Royals Forum.

    I really hope you screen-shotted when that user posted his rwt. If my claw was the only one with those stats when I posted it on Royals Forum, it is impossible that rwt post was posted around then.

    It almost feels like you want me banned for some reason. This is really a helpless feeling being pinned to some random post 2 years before I even obtained my claw. Again, I'm pretty sure I used a scroll on that claw...You can even check this. You must admit that none of this makes sense. My style of playing was never to the point where I would rwt. I literally gave away so many very high-priced items. I truly was just playing for fun.

    this rwt site post was made around the date you retracted your claw for sale from the forums

    @Tim - I'm close to giving up...This is so random to come back to. Can you please look at claws with those stats that were in-game 2016? If there are logs you can look at, I assume you'll be able to track any relevant claw around that time (Apr 2016).

    I think it's quite lame to be banned just because it was assumed that I was trying to rwt an item...That isn't evidence, that's just finding some random who had a claw with the same stats.

    @Tim - the reason I ask if you can check claws with those stats in 2016 (around Apr-May) is because the rwt user you mentioned looks to have posted that in April 2016. I would like to prove that this was a different claw, and I can't do this from my end, it must be checked on your end.

    ***Edit: I respect your admin status, however, I'm hoping you can get one of your colleague admins to also take a look at this case as well for a 2nd opinion. This seems absurd to me that a random rwt post was assumed to be me.

    He has not posted that in 2016, im not sure how many more times I have to repeat that until you understand that. I have already checked the post date which doesn't equal the account creation date there.

    your ban appeal has been denied due to the extensive evidence we have against you.

    I see no post date in the screenshot...How is this assumption extensive evidence?

    I respect you as I remember you from 2 years ago when I used to play, but in hopes of fairness, can you please have one of you colleague admins to take a look at this case for a 2nd opinion. You mention the ban was originally your verdict, but a mistake has been obviously. made..
