[BAN] _rA_ banned for botting

[Vink]

_rA_ was permanently banned for botting at 02:14 server time. He was moving in suspicious ways, a few steps and then stopping, sometimes changing direction, and moving like this repeatedly, until he found something to attack. He didn't pick up any drops and didn't respond to chat.

Here's the full record of my attempts to get response from him:

[01:10] Vink_GM: Hello there!
[01:10] Vink_GM: Hi _rA_!
[01:11] Vink_GM: _rA_ you move in mysterious ways.
[01:12] Vink_GM: As you should know, botting is forbidden according to the game rules.

[01:12] Vink_GM: We determine if someone is botting by chatting.
[01:12] Vink_GM: _rA_?
[01:13] Vink_GM: This means that if you do not respond in any way when talked to, you will be banned.

[01:13] Server: You picked up a Silk Cocoon
[01:13] Vink_GM: _rA_ do you hear me?
[01:13] Vink_GM: Hello?
[01:14] Vink_GM: OK, _rA_, I will ban you for botting. You can ask for a reset.

[01:14] : Character name sends to char-server to ask it.
[01:14] : Login-server has been asked to block the player '_rA_'.

ouh noooooo !!! Thats me !!! I was on holidays !

Please take few lvls down of this account and un-ban, if it possible ...

Thanks.

[Vink]

Yes, unban is possible, but then we reset your char so that you start from the beginning again. Is that OK with you?

[art69pl]

It's not possible to make it half ?
if not, then please reset, but please leave my inventory, if anything left there ...

Cheers.

[art69pl]

any one there ? ... please ...

Thanks.

I don't think it's possible to make it half, I think you'll have to start all over again. I think your items will be gone too

[Vink]

z0ro is right, the punishment for a programmed bot is a permanent ban or a full reset. The only thing you get to keep is the char name.

If you want a reset, we need to know when you will be online. Do you have another character in the game that we can talk to?

[art69pl]

ok just do a reset

[Vink]

When will you be online? Do you have another character in the game that we can talk to?

[Jaxad0127]

We really need to fix that so you can reset without them being online.

[art69pl]

No I do not have any other character in the game. sry.

[Vink]

OK. Tell me a time in GMT that you can be online here on the forum so we can talk about it?
