Title: Unban request - DTV
Post by: lenjurik on July 25, 2011, 03:23:02 am
Hello, I am requesting global unban for my character Lenjurik_PxC


I am among the large amount of people banned for exploiting DTV last night.  At first, I did not realize that the exp/gold that it was stating was actually going through, as it did not appear on the character page when i pressed c.  I merrily engaged the the TK fest thinking it was of no consequence.  Later in the night, I logged back onto DTV to notice people again TKing like mad.  At this point I checked the website and noticed that xp/gold had indeed gone through.

Once the simple nature of the bug was revealed, people starting doing it sporadically...winning a round normally here and there, then starting back up again.  As the xp gain even when not doing to bug non-stop was still better than x5, I played along.  Through this mechanic, I gained basically enough experience and gold in a single night what would have taken several playing normally.  Also, I avoided the usual repair costs by accomplishing all this naked.

 I knew that it was a bug, and had seen many different incarnations of bugs on DTV before, in previous versions.  I honestly thought it was a harmless vice considering the grinding nature of DTV in general but after becoming globally banned from all servers I deeply regret taking part in it.  At the time I found it unbelievable that I was setting myself up for a global ban, yet here I am, proving how foolish this train of thought was.  I do not claim ignorance  but i do ask for forgiveness in this matter, and can assure you that i will not be messing about DTV again as these bugs seem to be coming fast and furious and i do not want to get caught up with some minor gain only to be global banned.  Sorry for the abooze!

This is my first offense...I have been playing for about 3 months and have no previous bans.  My behavior on the normal battle and siege servers does not reflect the exploitative adventures I had on DTV last night. 
 
Additionally, I have provided feedback on the bug forum for this exploit and how to fix it (turn off ff).  I would be happy to speak to admins further about how to ensure this wont happen again.

I am fully responsible for my unfair actions, and humbly apologize to both the other players and the administration for the taking advantage of this silly exploit.

The bug can be turned off by any admin at any time by unchecking the FF box

As already discussed on irc, unban on 27.7. plus the gold&xp reduction. Check the sticky.
