Ozbud

OzbudAU At this point in time I’ll just play with one character

Thanks, I’ll just create one with a variation and post the name here when I’ve done it thanks, original Ozbud can stay locked.

Thank you very much for your responses, time and consideration. I understand I have put all of the moderation team in a difficult position. 1. as mentioned, I do not want access to Ozbud back and I do not deserve it either. Plus having been given a lot of gold and items from KP I missed the true experience of playing the game from the beginning with nothing, so am happy to start fresh. i do however want to keep the name Ozbud, if it’s not too much trouble is it possible for you to completely erase all record of that character so I can create a new one with the same name? Or just fully reset it and send it back to IP? also, what is the process for changing a password? as I am not familiar with how it works. 2. Completely understood and will comply. 3. Completely understood and will comply 4. I agree to all of the terms and conditions you have stated and you’ll never have another problem from me and understand that I will be under increased scrutiny from this point onwards.

I understand my word means nothing right now but I honestly don’t even remember giving him my password but the evidence shows that I must have as some point so I have no idea why he waited that long to access Ozbud. as for access to the Ozbud character, I never once asked for or expected it to be returned to me, simply that I may create a new character as I attempted to do and start over again. Again I understand my word currently means nothing so it’s just down to if I get given a chance or not to show I can follow the rules moving forward. Looking at the numerous topics here there has been a number of banned and unbanned players given another chance so I was hoping for the same leniency for a first offence, I do understand the whole KP situation does add another layer of complexity that you all don’t want to have to deal with.

Are the donations still working? I just tried twice to make a donation regardless of the outcome of my ban appeal but it failed both times and redirected me back to the EL website.

Thank you for your reply, with the evidence you have provided it is now clear to me that yes, at some point I must have given him my password, likely very early on in my time in EL. basically everything on Ozbud came from KP so I assume I thought there would be no harm giving him the details in case he wanted something back , obviously a judgement error on my behalf and I apologize. however, not that I’m trying to shift blame from myself but he would not have been banned when I gave him the password so I was not helping him with ban evasion as per rule 4. Again, not trying to shift blame, just pointing out my interpretation of the situation. as for rule 8, yes I admit I must have done the wrong thing, as stated above everything I had came from KP except my time spent in game so didn’t see there would have been an issue, obviously I was wrong. Reassurances were always going to be made, however I couldn’t make reassurances previously when it wasn’t exactly clear to me what I had done wrong. i would greatly appreciate getting my IP unbanned so I have the opportunity to play again, and I apologize for all of my previous mistakes. I promise not to break any further rules and as you already know from my logs I don’t interact with anyone else so won’t cause any issues for anyone, I just want to relax after work and take my mind off things. im also happy to make a donation to the game via the details on the website if I can get the opportunity to play again. thank you for your time and understanding and I apologize if my words were perceived as giving attitude, that was in no way my intention.

I don’t want to waste your time going back and forwards talking about someone you don’t want in your community. I came here to get some answers for why my characters got banned. if he accessed my characters that is understandable, maybe I did give him my login details but I have no memory of that and no evidence of it in any of our chat logs that have historical records and for which I apologize. now, is there anything that can be done about me getting access to the game again, or should I just accept my losses and move on?

Yes I created Ozbud in 2019 prior to KPs bans and have played brief stints on and off over that time with the last time being about 3 years ago. I think I was grinding ogres on C2. i have a video of me playing on Ozbud in 2020 on my YouTube channel

I guided myself here trying to find out about my bans. i found the forums and email addresses through the main EL website. i know nothing about the character Ozpin. and kingpin is the only person in this game that i have ever interacted with, who else was I supposed to be in contact with? i know Kingpin from Nine Dragons Awakens at Red Fox Games where we became good online friends, I’ve never met the bloke in real life, I’ve never even left Australia. He introduced me to this game as he knows I prefer chill, older games.

Hi Revi, thanks for your response. maybe ask what triggered Ozbud as being used by Kingpin? I don’t recall ever giving him my login details, was it an IP flag? I do recall him standing by and healing me while I was grinding XP one day but we were actively on voice chat during that time, and at one point I did log into one of his characters Mugen and did a dungeon run of some kind with him but as mentioned I don’t recall giving him my login details and can find no record of doing so in our discord logs so if I did I can accept that as a mistake on my behalf. as for the new characters, I didn’t realise I had to contact someone, I was waiting for a post to appear here but it never did, I tried sending emails and apparently they were never received and I only just found out I could post as a guest to get access to the forums so for that I apologize. how do we proceed from here? I’d like to be able to play the game but don’t believe I should be punished for the actions of someone else on the other side of the world.

I’ve tried emailing aisy_el@yahoo.com previously on 12/7, 16/7 and 23/7 is that email address still correct? I'm writing to ask for some clarification regarding the bans on my characters, and now the IP ban on my accounts. I'm genuinely confused about what I've done wrong and would really appreciate any explanation you can provide. A couple of weeks ago I tried logging into my original character, Ozbud, and discovered it had been banned, even though I hadn't played that character in around three years. While trying to remember the login details for my alternate character, I created a new character named TripleKill to check whether I was IP banned. I was able to log in successfully, so I realised I wasn't IP banned at that stage. I didn't intend to keep using that character, as I wasn't happy with the name. After remembering my login details, I was able to access my original alternate character, Musashii, and I also created a new character called AlwaysBaked. I played on those characters for a day, but when I returned the following day, both had been banned. After that, I created another new character, BakedPotato, played for a couple of days, and have now come back to find that my IP has also been banned. Throughout this time I haven't interacted with other players in-game, aside from speaking with my old online friend Kingpin in the past. I understand he has apparently broken the rules, although I'm not entirely sure of the details beyond hearing something about macro use. Regardless, I haven't been involved in any of that, and I don't believe his actions have anything to do with me. I'm simply trying to understand what I've done that has resulted in these repeated bans. My intention was only to return to Eternal Lands for some casual gameplay after several years away. If I've misunderstood or unintentionally broken a rule, I sincerely apologise. I'd be grateful if you could explain what the issue is, and if possible, give me the opportunity to play again—even if that means starting over with a fresh character. Thank you for taking the time to read my post. I appreciate any clarification you can provide, and I hope to hear from you soon. Kind regards, Josh (Ozbud)
