What GM banned you (optional):
Hi there. On 9th March 2026 at roughly 09:00, your character TannoMule was in ch1 room 10 of the Free Market (FM) with a standing store open selling items. Your character's shop was open, players could interact and buy your items just like a regular shop. The part that baffles me is this. Your shop mule, with a store open, was moving around the FM. This happened multiple times and other players also witnessed this. Would you like to explain why your character TannoMule was moving around in the FM, while the store was still open and players could interact with it?
Well the short answer to that is: I don't know. To help track down what happened I'll provide some insights into my setup and what I remember from yesterday around that time. That mule is my storemule, which I have on an old laptop that I've configured to be as stable as possible to run royals 24hrs/day 7days/week. Generally this goes well, though it does DC/crash once every 2-3 weeks on average. I believe it crashed at some point on Sunday, I found a new spot on Mondaymorning. I don't really recall if it then crashed again, though it might have on Monday. When it crashes it sometimes does so in a weird way. The screen will flash like the game was continually going from windowed to fullscreen. This has happened before, I have posted about it on the discord: https://discord.com/channels/1008174423846686801/1008557899045425163/1458884444805927159 . Generally the store is still open and ppl can visit the store, so I tend to ignore it if I don't need to restock my store. I had no idea that this had any bad effects other than me not being able to see if my store sells anything. After your message a friend of mine reached out and told me that there used to be a glitch where if you changed the resolution while in a store, you could move about with the store open. I was not aware of this glitch, nor do I have any intention to trigger it. Supposedly the glitch has been patched, but maybe the weird behaviour of my laptop triggered it? Another thing I don't understand is the timeframe you mentioned. You said me walking about with the store open occurred around 9:00 yesterday, I assume that is measured in servertime. That would be impossible, since I was out of the house by then. The way I recall things going down yesterday morning is me doing some dailies and resetting my store from around 7 AM servertime until 8AM servertime. I had to be in the car by at least 8:15 AM servertime, so there is no way my character would be walking around at 9AM servertime yesterday. The only theory I now have is that this occurred earlier, that the mentioned glitching of my laptop put the mule in a weird state while moving to reset my store. I am sorry if this has caused any issues or has giving me any sort of benefit. I was not aware I was doing this and most certainly did not willingly set this up. If I can supply any more information to help clear this up I will gladly do so. In the event that my ban is overturned, any advice in how to prevent the issue on my laptop would also be very much appreciated.
