I think i was banned

[GenJon]

A couple of days ago I noticed I was unable to log onto my charater... GenJon

 

I wasnt sure if I was banned I dont recall doing anything against the rules and have always tried to be a pleasent person to play with in the game...

Maybe if you read rule 5 carefully in it's entirety, and think back to your involvement with the hyperlite and micah9 characters, you will recall...

Pay close attention to the fact that people caught helping others try to get around this rule also are breaking the rule.

Rule 5 do not cheat...

 

If this is because of me trading with hyperlite or being on the same router... Its because we are friends from high school(now in different colleges) we trade with each other and hangout all the time at each others houses... So there maybe similar IPs but we were on separate computers if anything I let him use my nmt to train and then he gave it back once he got the perk...idk if that would be considered illegal multi playing.

 

Rule 5 is a very open rule im not sure what part impractical I am at fault for but I never have done anything that(i would knowingly consider) outside the rules of the game I can not account for what others may or may not have done.

 

I do want to say I am sorry if I have unknowingly broken any rules.

5. Do not cheat.

Cheating in the game means using outdated or illegal clients, outdated or illegal unofficial map(.elm) files that have been altered from the official versions, unregistered and/or unapproved bots, macroing, automating, scripting, exploiting bugs, muling, or any other form of illegal multi-playing*.

To use a bot, it must be registered and approved; it must adhere to the rules of the client's license and all your code must be open source. If you find a bug in the game, you must tell the owners of Eternal Lands immediately.

*Illegal multi-playing means using more than one character to help you gain benefits that using a single character would not. Illegal multi-playing includes but is not limited to: muling, deathbag sitting, pvp training, luring people to pk maps with one character while lying in wait with another. Also note that it is very difficult to be able to define each and every form of illegal multi-playing or cheating, so these matters will be reveiwed and punishments decided upon on a case by case basis.

 

1. NO same-owner IP trading. If caught, unless you can PROVE you are legitimate family/significant other, you WILL be punished. (This does not legitimize breaking the rest of these rules). Proof will be determined on a case by case basis. Abusing same IP trading and/or lying will result in severe consequences.

2. Middlemen are NOT allowed and do not make same IP trading legal between characters. (This includes getting somebody else to log on to one of your characters for the sole purpose of aquiring a different IP to make the trade)

3. Bag trading not allowed between same IP characters to bypass this rule.

4. We do not make exceptions for "well" leveled characters to be allowed to trade.

5. Owning multiple characters IS legal as long as they do not interact, and do not help each other.

6. Proceeds (items, gc, etc) from character sales are not allowed to be put on any secondary character belonging to the same person. Any attempts to hide such transactions are subject to the same penalty. Please note we do not endorse or support these sales, and any scams or problems are on your own head.

7. Using ebul rl$$$ as a "middleman" to have the assets from one character transfered over to a secondary character is illegal. You cannot sell gc or items yourself from characterA for rl$$$ then turn around and buy more items or gc for rl$$$ then put them on your CharacterB. You also cannot have CharacterA give "a friend" gc in exchange for purchasing items or gc with rl$$$ and then have Mr.Middleman give them to CharacterB. (This is not the same as you the rl person taking money out of your wallet that has nothing to do with either character and purchasing items or gc for $$$ and choosing which character it goes on. This is legal.)

8. Guild storages will be considered as bots, even if they are not run by a program. They must be declared and registered on the official list. They will follow all ingame rules AND all bot rules.

I read rule 5 I dont think I broke it you may think otherwise if so you are entitled...

 

All I can say is im sorry if you think I broke Rule 5 I dont think I have... Thank you for your time I just wanted to know the reason for GenJon being banned.

[Aislinn]

Which part of helping hyperlite transfer his entire storage onto the micah9 character strikes you as legal based on what you read of rule 5?

Don't forget, I see your trade and storage logs too. Because if you didn't do it, somebody else (hyperlite) using your character did. (Therefore please read rule 4).

[GenJon]

I didnt know that was the reason Hyperlite must of used my char GenJon to do that I was not logged on when that happened (didnt even know he used my char to do that)

 

Im sorry about that I didnt know he even had gotten a new char

or had my password

Aislinn, I am writing to see how long my ban will be for? (almost a year now) Or to see if it is indefinite?

 

Thank you very much for your time hope you are enjoying your summer

Make sure you are very familiar with both rules 4 and 5.

I unlocked GenJon.
