Character Name: Nomical, Trixis Last thing you did: Krex last night Why do you think you got banned?: No idea Ban message when attempting to log in: Your account has been blocked for using illegal programs or violating the game policy. You can login after Jul/8/2020 2:03am What GM banned you (optional): NIL Hi GMs, would like some enlightenment as to my 30 day ban. I don't think I have used any illegal programs nor violated the game policy. Thank you.
Thanks for the reply Gert. 1) Firstly, just for clarification, what such jokes did I make? This is just for me to understand the intention behind the ban. I don't think I made any jokes like that, unless you deem the claiming of other players to RWT to be a joke? (P.S These players that I had talked about had already been proven to RWT through ban appeal, so I wasn't making any joke but rather stating facts, if a joke was what it was taken to be.) 2) Secondly, do such jokes warrant a ban? Perhaps I could further understand this if there is some explanation with whatever I said / whatever was deemed to be said. 3) Thirdly, following the T&C, this would possibly fall within the minor infractions column, under Objectionable Behavior (Disruption) or Inappropriate Content, which warrants a 3 day ban for the first offence. However, the ban executed was 30 days. Perhaps I could have some clarification here as well. Thank you for your hard work.
Yes, you were making jokes towards another player in the FM in all chat. A bystander saw and reported you for it. You were not just pointing out a fact, you were making jokes at this individual. If you hadn't brought RWT up in your joke, it would've been a 3 day ban. If this were a few months ago, it would have been a permanent ban. Since it was very clearly a joke (as the statement you said made no sense aside from the fact that you wanted to buy a rwt scroll) you were banned for 30-days.
After reconsideration with the rest of staff, we have decided to lower your ban from a 30-day one to a 3-day harassment ban instead.
