Character Name:UTTo Last thing you did:farming meso at goby Why do you think you got banned?:didn't reply gm Ban message when attempting to log in:Botting What GM banned you (optional):TimK I saw TimK appeared beside me when I was farming mesos at goby. Then he said "hai" to me but I disconnected suddenly. After that I relog-in immediately but TimK disappeared, I think it was less than 1 minute between I disconnected and relog-in. And I was available to log-in at that time so I didn't mind it seriously and still keep farming mesos. I thought he will come back again for confirming but he didn't. Then I disconnected again and got banned. So I didn't reply Tim when he said "hai" to me, it is true but I thought it was not my fault. And I relog-in as soon as possible after disconnected but Tim was not at that map. I even had no chance to reply him but he still banned me. I thought it has no sense so I do ban appeal. Thanks for reading.
Can you explain why your character disconnected the very second Tim appeared next to you and not before that?
I did see him appeared and got some lags but did not disconnect at that time. I saw he talked to me before i disconnect. And I guess I disconnected because of my ISP called "Chunghwa Telecom" . The user sometimes got internet disconnect around this time.
I found a web page explaining that why the users of this ISP got disconnected around these time. But it is too hard for me to translate it clearly. I'm sorry for my poor English. These words are from this web page : https://tw.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110110000010KK07179 (update)By the way ,this ISP is the most famous one in Taiwan. I'm sure that there are some players in this server use this ISP. you can ask some people who live in Taiwan if you want . I think some people also get the same problem .
I just remember I said "Oops" when I log-in after first disconnected . Though TimK was not there at that time but I think you can find it in chat log. I think it is enough to prove that I was not botting because it is less than or about just 1 minute between TimK said hi to me and I said oops. As I known ,the botting case in report abuse should record the conversation and keep getting no reply for maybe 3 or more minutes. But Tim just gave me tens of seconds . What I can do is run the client ,log-in and type something as soon as possible after unpredictable disconnect. Thanks.
I was observing you play the same pattern over and over again at goby so I decided to record some of your movements since you have a botting history (you have been banned for botting before on UTTo) 1. You always cast 7 genesis from top to bottom even though there's nothing to kill at the bottom sometimes 2. You always walk back to the center of the map and then go back to the top 3. Your character disconnected as soon as I unhide and write something, this is similar to a 'smart bot' behavior that I previously encountered. 4. There is no leecher on your map, most likely because your botting method doesn't allow any other characters on the map as it will log you out (to prevent getting reported) You can bot and still be near your computer. We usually catch bots by talking to them and see if they reply like you mentioned but this new generation of bots needs a different approach. I suspect you weren't AFK and you saw that your bot got disconnected by my appearance, you logged back in and pretended nothing sketchy was going on. Other than that you were probably still setting up since you logged in 10 minutes before this happened. Disconnecting because of your ISP as soon as I show myself without having any connection problems before that is not something I believe as it's too much of a coincidence.
