As far as bannings go. You can always appeal your ban or suspension. SE has a Appeals Team you can file an appeal thru. Three of my mules have bannned becasue personal complants to GMs becasue i'm minning or harvesting with them all the time thru my PC and PS2. If you've been banned a 3 way call with SE and your ISP will get your account back if you've been suspended or banned inapropriatly.

a lil back story i had a 75 drg on the siren server Hiroakashi (part of Chirasi and NewchirasiLS) which i was banned becaused i'd leave my account online in Zerhun Mines by a minning point so i could come back from class and mine some more. No activity for 6-8 hours and then mine the points in Zerhun...does it look like i'm using a bot...i don't think so. I was banned because someone called a GM on me and i didn't respond to his tells but i didn't mine or move untill i got home and tried loggin in and the lil pop up told me i was banned or suspended. Called SE asked why i was banned told me there was nurmous complaints about using 3rd party programs. 3 wayed my ISP had them verify the system i was using was only my PS2. (also a good tip for anyone who plays on a PS2 mainly, if you find yourself banned and don't know why contact your ISP and they'll give you details on all your packet transfers S/R for your PS2, PC and router if you use one.) But even with my ISP on the line they denied my appeal becasue they couldn't verify that frickin COMCAST was a viable ISP...stupid SE.

but yeah thats my story and if anyone on the Siren server reads this tell Cellmario and Tibur i said hey.

Everquest launched on March 16th 1999 and Shadows of Luclin released in December 2001 from memory. Other than that you were pretty much on the mark.

I can only recall one update in the last year and a half that knocked down the windower. There was one shortly after ToAU came out that killed it if you got signet or sanction, but that only affected the newest version of the windower. Not the one that preceded it.

LOL! I was banned from FFXI! But not for third-party program usage. I got banned for having Windows 2003 with DirectX 9.0c! It says:
Quote:
You need Direct X 8.1 or higher installed.
Seriously, if people would shut-up about the Windower, I don't think they care. I can put down $5 and bet that at least one of the FFXI GM Team uses the Windower, either at home or at work.

1. Law enforment has no problems posting pictures of regular people who got caught hiring prostitutes. as well as everything else. If you do the crime you should do the time.

2. Why not because then it be obvious they are full of crap? Its not hard to name names an servers.

3. So your saying since they dont, then that proves everything to you. Talk about being gullible.

4. like i said those who get caught are using speed hacks an postool all the time. If you run them every now an again then its a slimmer chance you will get caught, As for claim bots, S,E will never catch this happening,

5. Jei S.E wont ban miners, they fall under the fish botting terms, Even though you can actually pull mining positions towards you. S.E wont touch them

6. i figure S.E knows all to well how windower runs, an what its functions are. still dont mean they can figure out if your using them without scanning your OS. only way you can get caught is if you open up your mouth about it. Or your a moron an post 600 screen shots of your char an his TP, with Draw distance up an so on.

I'm saying if they posted 1400 names, who's gonna check up and make sure all those people got banned? You? I didn't think so. So you're saying if they posted a list of names you'd just believe they banned them? That's pretty gullible. Oh wait, you still wouldn't believe it? Then why did you ask for a list of names? Was it just to say something useless and inflammatory to get people to respond to you? That's called trolling. Go hug your mom if you're that hungry for attention.

Id glance at it. Yeah im curious if those players i reported for obvious postool hacking got banned. As i bet alot of others who witnessed weird stuff are curious. Seems we always here " we will look into the matter" but do they really. I know alot of players dont buy that.

An no i wouldnt believe they banned them, I believe they only hand out 24-72 hour bans unless its the same guy over an over. then i think those guys get perma banned.

Actually its trolling If i didnt play the game anymore, or if i never did. Thats considered trolling. But i still play this game an pay a monthly fee. so im entitled to an opnion. An If you dont like my posts or my comments. GO bitch towards your mom, an maybe she with comfort you. Then you may actually find someone who gave a crap what you think.

Re: Action Taken Against Third-Party Tool Users (10/19/2006)

Actually I know of atleast two or three people who've been banned for pos hacking, and another who got a 72 hour ban for 2-boxing.

Re: Action Taken Against Third-Party Tool Users (10/19/2006)

ok so i read that interview... didnt like it. i felt like the interviewer was very acusational (spelling?) and it seemd like all of his questions revolved around making getting claims easier. i think there are other questions that could have been asked that got skipped.
banning:
i think its great. no other game makes any where near this kind of effort to not only make cheating extreemly difficult but also to track the offenders and take action against them. coolness. honestly after the first round a few months ago i quit using windower alltogether, i know theres a good chance they dont care but i've been playing since NA realese thats way too much game time to take a chance and i mean any chance on getting banned. {no thank} {you can have this}

lil ninja
........ >> yea ok its all a consispiracy there out to get you. and btw SE thinks your so important that there gonna lie to you.
they cant just go around posting names all over the place that opens them up to a slew of legal problems. the police do it for very specific reasons and with very spefic laws that protect them from suit. and even then they still get sued. SE's not gonna put there necks on the line and open themselfs up to any sort of leagal problem just so YOUR satisfied with there actions.
the other guys right your an angry lil kid that needs a hug. not that ima give it to you.
and before you flame me lemme get some things out of the way ahead of time
yes im aware my spelling sucks,
no i dont care
i also dont realy care what you type in response i just feel better having adressed your rediclous comment.
btw i dont understand if you hate SE so much... (this cant possibly be the first time you've heard this) ... play a diffrent game?

Yeah, apparently they IP traced both chars and found they were the same. Ofcourse he used to use pos hack occasionally, but they told him it was for 2boxing.

So let me get this straight. you can sue S.E for saying Shiva server Captain crunch, an jerseykid. i dunno but arent our char an their information proporty of S.E An all we do is rent them each month. They arent saying RL names.

After 3+ years ive gotten stale on S.E an there ways, They honestly in my mind never resolved anything. They just keep watering down their content. I just think its sad so many buy into it.

An naa S.E isnt the worst company, the company that put spyware on there mmo, an didnt tell anyone it was on there til they bought it an opened up the box Now that is the worst company.

i thought you could run two accounts on 1 cpu as long as you had the kind of system to do it. I know mine can run 2 monitors. only problem is my one flat went out. Never did try an run 2 char with it.
