You like saying absolutely nothing, don't you? Glad that's working out for you.

youve been saying abolutely nothing for 5 pages, bud.

the whole thread says nothing. and i hope its gone rather soon than later.

0 evidence here, just a mentally broken OP trying to start a witch hunt.

Thanks for stopping by.

If you truly believed your "friend" was innocent, you would have posted in the Ban Appeal forum instead of coming to General and crying that the GMs are literally hitler.

 

Just another case of some retard using hacks/cheats and then coming to the forums crying that he was banned "for no reason". Move along, nothing to see here.

gets teleported to the "GM room"

GMs don't use that. They don't have time to fuck around with teleporting players there when they can just chat normally.

 

Nice bullshit story, OP. Hope your "friend" enjoys his ban.

Wow, reach much? It's one GM, as stated in the thread. I did post an appeal, as stated in the thread. I do believe he is innocent, as stated in the thread. I'm "crying" in general because perhaps you'd like to know that you might be next if you piss off the wrong person.

You're welcome.

Nice edit, especially the "friend" part. Clearly you didn't see the part where I proved it wasn't me. Nice try... but not really. Stupid can't be helped, I suppose.

To be honest, this seems like a slam piece where you are trying to expose "corrupt" GMs, with absolutely no proof whatsoever regarding their corruption, besides a player you know being banned and him saying he doesn't know why. The fact that your friend is not pursuing this after being banned for cheating should be the highlight of this thread. No one will admit to cheating, but plenty of cheaters will accept the fact they were caught and give up (just like your friend has...?) 

You have insulted many people in this thread, and acted in a very unprofessional manner. If anything, threads like this demonstrate the professionalism of the staff here, because they will not stoop down to your level. The fact that they are caring enough about each instance to actually go so far as to talk to a FRIEND of someone who is banned is pretty incredible, and you would not find that in most situations. 

They have confirmed that he was cheating, and they were watching him actively cheat. I don't think anyone "pissed off" anyone... I think the general consensus people are gathering from this thread is that cheating will get you banned and feigning innocence will get you nowhere...

I can only tell someone to read the thread so many times before I decide to ignore this type of thing. Take that however you want.

And all those insults directed at me... tsk. Some people.

Mmhm. I wonder when people going to learn that GMs don't ban you "for no reason". Literally every single time someone comes to the forums crying that they got banned for no reason, it is later revealed that they were buying/selling gold, or cheating, or exploiting, or some other rule-breaking activity.

 

Like so:

I assure you that I have fully read this thread, and see that any time a player responds to you logically because they have seen this sort of thing many times, you resort to saying that they have no friends...? I don't know why anyone would take you seriously.

They very much do, and some of them enjoy the power trip it gives them quite a bit. It's easy to find screenshots of examples of them getting really into the "secret police with power over life and death" role on GM island.

Sounds like you and your friend need to reevaluate that trust.  Unless you are the one being naive.

Like so:

Posting evidence of a rightful ban, if it was, is not evidence that these people can't make mistakes. You assume they can't be wrong. I assume everyone can be wrong at some point.

Last week, according to Mesh (who quit the team in the meantime), there were at least 4 people falsely banned for "gold trafficking" and then unbanned. Do you want a link to the quote?

Careful, you might be accused of conspiring with me. Maybe you're my "friend". This could be a conspiracy!

Quit speaking logic. It's kryptonite to some people.

[Haestingas 30]

Stop feeding the troll. Lets all just rejoice that this cancerous sore of a person lost his buddy since anyone who is willing to be friends with this kind of guy must be a trash bag themselves. Glad your buddy is banned, please leave the server and don't come back.

[Shiamorah 20]

Antipatra, I think what most people are trying to explain here is that "corruption" of a GM can only exist if the entirety of the staff is "corrupt". Players regularly watch threads that involve banned players feigning innocence, and a very vast majority of them are lying in the end, which is why there is an innate distrust towards players feigning innocence. However, there are many examples of players getting unbanned after the staff realize that the ban was a mistake. This is almost always due to automatic bans that have no involvement with the staff at all. 

The fact that a GM was watching your friend means that he must have done something that gave the GM an amount of proof that lead to his ban. I know that for most cases, if a GMs integrity is in question, the case is reviewed by multiple members of staff, which I assume is what happened here. 

I'm sorry that someone close to you was banned, but please don't escalate this to the belief that 'everyone is against you'. The staff work hard to assure the players who are banned are correctly banned. They review their evidence and I am sure that no permanent ban is processed by just one GM.

I don't know how that relates to what I said, it is pretty apparent from the screenshot that the player in question wasn't banned, and that Suzerain confirmed that it made no sense.

If anything, this highlights and proves my point. If a GM wrongfully bans a player and the player appeals, the staff will catch it, just like this.

I'm gonna put on my kid gloves just for you.

No one is making that claim. Not even me.

And that's fine. No doubt it happens. Nothing wrong with that. I'm certainly not going to have anything against you for not believing me. I will accept the blatant attempts at trolling from others, the "you're gay" comments, whatever. No one is feigning innocence here. I'm fighting for a cause that my friend doesn't even care about.

However, there are many examples of players getting unbanned after the staff realize that the ban was a mistake. This is almost always due to automatic bans that have no involvement with the staff at all.

Ok?

Actually, it means he believes he saw something, not that he knows it for a fact. He might have "evidence", but he hasn't proven it to me and it could actually just be bullshit because no one has seen it but him and maybe other GM's... which is an assumption, because we don't know if anyone is involved in this case other than him.

I know that for most cases, if a GMs integrity is in question, the case is reviewed by multiple members of staff

Good.

Thank you, I appreciate it. I'm not escalating this, everyone is jumping to conclusions based on their own uninformed opinion. I'm sure some staff have worked hard, maybe even this one. We will see what happens.

lol. For real? I never said I had a "hunter in my twenties". I can pull out my 13 hunter IF YOU REALLY want me to. This was to prove my account is not banned...

Actually, forget it. This post is just dazzlingly stupid. I genuinely feel my brain cells melting. Call an ambulance...
