    Your Character Names: TotoroKun, PopeJohnPauI
    Last thing you did: Open a shop in the free market (1-11)
    Why do you think you got banned?: Could be because my shop title was 'Meso Duplication Service'? Am not so sure because it was meant to be a joke, obviously no such thing as that. And items were priced reasonably (although no items was sold (last I checked)). Definitely no intention to scam (via a shop in FM?), just another store in the FM.

    Hi there.

    You are correct.

    You were banned for making a believable claim for providing meso duplication service by advertising it in your shop name.

    We take Real World Trade (RWT), hacks and glitch abuse seriously and saying that this is a joke doesn't cut it.

    Hi,

    There is no real world trade, hacks nor glitch abuse involved. I have done nothing of that nature except for carelessly naming my shop, which also, did not provide any other information/commitment that I would perform anything like that (because, of course, there is no such thing as 'meso duplication'). I apologise if this was an illegal shop name? But I was not aware of such a rule, because this is what I am being banned for (an inappropriate shop name - because there is no real world trade, hacks or glitch abuse involved).

    The shop title read 'Meso Duplication Service' only. There is no indication of the provision of such a service, as compared to IF it were to have read 'S/Selling > Meso Duplication Service'. I acknowledge that it could be inferred differently, but it does not change the fact that it was only a statement and such a statement does not amount to a claim that I was providing such a service.

    Please don't let this be the end of my maple journey :(

    Considering that there has not been any actual foul play committed/damage sustained by any party, I do hope that this can be a warning instead of banning me entirely. I understand the gravity of this and will be more careful when naming shops in the FM.

    Hi,

    Thank you for your leniency. Am I allowed to vote during this period?
