    ALL Your Character Names: Jmac, JmacNL, RadShadBrad, JmacSE, JmacHB?, CrashMacNChz, can't remember the rest but I have a list of usernames a GM can lookup
    Last thing you did: Can't remember, it's been awhile. Prolly just hanging out in FM. I go on the forum a lot to read ban appeals and look at sell/buy offers
    Why do you think you got banned?: Not sure, maybe I was hacked during my absence?
    Ban message when attempting to log in: This is an ID that has been deleted or blocked from connection.
    What GM banned you (optional): not sure

    Came back after a longish break, probably around a year or so. I have been playing GMS as well as Tibia, but the new sound update for Tibia triggered me so I want to play Royals again. Let me know if there is any information I can help provide! I have tried resetting my password, pin, and pic but that didn't seem to help. Also reset my modem/router and that didn't help. Thanks!

    Edit: Just tried all my accounts and I was able to get into one. I didn't log all the way in, but this makes me think this ban is intentional. I will avoid playing for now to avoid ban evading.

    Hi there. Welcome back from your break.

    You were banned for participating in RWT.
    Punishment: Permanent ban.

    Real World Trading
    - The act of exploiting the software or the game for any sort of commercial purpose, including buying or selling items, mesos, or services for real world currency or barter. Additionally, any and all solicitation, advertisement, or other promotion of the aforementioned, irrespective of the location of the act.

    Could you explain why you received 3B from a known RWT seller?

    I can assure you I have never bought mesos for real life money. I do almost all of my trading through the forum, by making posts. Would it be possible to go back through my forum posts and see what I was selling/buying around the time of the ban since you know of the time frame and I don't? I don't take screenshots of all my trades, since they are usually pretty low in value since I don't have any 20att fs etc. Let me know if there is anything else I can do to provide evidence and help clear my name! Also thanks for the lightning fast reply!

    Edit: Going thru some spreadsheets I have I've found a couple items around that range that could have been this transaction.
    Downgraded a 86/16 rc for 81/11 RC and 8b
    81/11 RC for 3.5b
    8 atk FS for 3.6b
    Way back when I traded a 16 atk scg for a mudkips chair and then sold that for 3b
    I also had sold a lot of int gear before I quit since I had finished hp washing RadShadBrad

    It would have to be some time before late January 2022.

    I will forward this appeal to the admins, your patience is appreciated.

    Hmm yeah I can't remember any transactions that stand out around that time. I'm happy to answer any questions the admins have that might help the process! I'll be patient until then, thanks!

    Edit: To help research on the GMs side: I only ever use the forums or in game messaging for my trades. I never use discord or any external communcation systems. So if you cross examine the forums and the in game messages around the time of the suspected RWT, it should become clear that this was a legit trade. Thanks again!

    Looks like these two transactions add up. They are from my private messages on the forum. Looks like I sold an 8 atk fs for 3b and also traded a 16 att scg for a mudkips chair and sold that for ~3b around august 24th!

    I am able to connect now! Thank you for all you and the other GMs/developers do to keep this game safe! A couple false positives along the way is worth it for the fantastic service you all provide. Stay strong and maple on!
