You do KNOW that outspark wants people to try to hack the game so they can patch those holes before Open Beta...

Seriously though...what the HELL did you do to get urself banned?

I found out how to disconnect people on accident (which means it disconnected people, and I didn't know I was doing it, so it kept happening, and when I realized it was me I said I was sorry), and then some guy started harassing me and telling people to report me, so I started disconnecting him a bunch.

I logged off for a while, and when I logged back on I was in the Restricted Area; I logged in on a different character, was talking to Pr0nWaffle, and got teleported there after he bought a bow from me, and then I was disconnected and banned.

When I saw that picture of yours in restricted zone my first thought was that a GM warped you there and you did something wrong.

Ya...abusing the thing to stop a harasser really didn't help your case -_-;

What'd you do, edit the game code?

End of the story (I'm going to make this PERFECTLY clear.):

My launcher didn't download the previous patch (the one prior to tonight's) correctly.

I heard a player, mintmint, say the emote Sit in the corner was removed; I looked at my emotes, and it was still there, so I used it.

I'm sitting around for a bit, and then I hear mintmint say, "WTF I JUST GOT D/C!?"

I say, "Hey, what emote was removed again?" minmint told me it was Sit in the corner, and I said, "o rly?" and did it again. It took a few seconds, but I noticed people were logging out (this is what I had figured at the time), and then logging back in.

mintmint logged back in and complained about disconnecting, so I told her/him to let me try something; I used the emote again and noticed everyone d/c again. -- This would be where I realized I could d/c people. I then apologized to everyone (that could see the apology) for the disconnection.

Now, I went ahead and asked the people around me if I could do it again, so I could show one of my family members that was in the room, and I heard a few yeses, so I went ahead and did it.

Now, of course there always has to be a jackass in the crowd, and that jackass was Alraune.

Instead of whispering me about it, she stars using the shout command and continuously saying, "Report Izual, he's disconnecting people." I asked her to stop repeatedly, and she wouldn't (since other people were joining in on it, asking how to report me, etc.), so I got fed up with her and disconnected her intentionally a couple times, alone with people in the general area.

Now, after this is when she switched accounts (apparently) to Verdandi, and then continued to harass me. -- After this point I made no more disconnections.

I'd say for a good 20 minutes she was spamming how I am disconnecting people, and to report me for hacking. The only thing going on at this point is arguing.

Then Pr0nWaffle comes along and everything cools down, but, and he is a witness to this, when he first asked her to stop, she said no, and her (not exact) words were, "Because I enjoy pissing him off."

So, yes, I did intentionally disconnect her a couple times, but I don't think I deserve being banned for it, but I am, and I think she should have /some/ kind of punishment as well, because I wasn't harassing myself.

P.S.

Your girlfriend also said she had screenshots of me trying to make people pay me 500c a piece not to disconnect them, and when I told her to post them on the forums as proof, she declined.
