All Your Character Names: WooPaX Last thing you did: Went to sleep standing in FM with a board saying "Cheap Gach Scrolls FM 21 Door" Why do you think you got banned?: Pretty sure it was because of "believable claim to botting" Ban message when attempting to log in: "Your account has been blocked for using illegal programs or violating game policy" Yeah, I don't bot xd. It was a snip from this website under "Motivation". https://engineering.fb.com/developer-tools/hack-a-new-programming-language-for-hhvm/ Let's see. Uhh, there was also a claim I made of having 30 accounts to snipe a FM spot. You can go ahead and check my ip and everything. I only have this account and char. The day I stood in that FM 1 spot, my store was already open in FM 21. It's been open in FM 21 door spot since the reset. I wanted to troll these FM 1 people.
Joking like that gets you in serious trouble. You're correct, that line is why you were banned, and it's currently permanent.
Sooo, I'm guess I'm fine with the ban. I can wait out the 7 days. Just wanted to clarify something. Joking, but providing evidence that I didn't do something with the fact that my shop has been open in FM 21, so I couldn't possibly open a shop on this char, while also having only 1 character can get me banned? Where you also understand in your previous post to knowing it was a joke.
When you're banned, it's as a person. This means you can't log into any other accounts during this time or you will face doubling your ban duration for ban evasion. A lot of jokes regarding breaking certain rules or doing things that are related to those things, like putting text in meant to look like a script for a bot, are taken as believable claims and are subject to the same punishments listed for actually committing those offenses. We do however have discussions regarding these events among the rest of staff to determine a ban's final duration.
So basically any coding that normal people wouldn't understand could get me banned? Like if someone didn't know how to code and reported me for saying System.out.println("Bot FM 1 Store 2 seconds");, I would be banned?
Putting phrases like "botSpot" and "Bot FM 1 Store 2 seconds" are things that will definitely get you banned. Any mentioning of using 3rd party programs inside of mapleroyals will definitely make people report you as well. I'd just not joke about things like that at all next time if I were you, as the next offense of this will most likely be permanent. As it stands, this appeal will be denied and you will have to wait out your 7 days.
