I quit p99 for about 9 months, come back to a banned account for RMT. No biggie, i didn't do anything wrong so there's a mistake. I make a petition. The GM response: "this might not be your account, care to tell us how you acquired it?"
I have never been petitioned, banned, suspended, even messaged by a GM. And because of some super secret coding something or the other, i'm not a RMT'r apparently.
My response is that it is my account, i've had it since shortly after this server launched. I show definitive proof. I'm the sole owner of the password for the account and the eqemu. Nothing has changed on the eqemu (i obviously can't say the same for the account since i can't log in)
No response.
I wait.
No response.
3 MONTHS LATER. no response. My one and only really active account that i was glad to be able to play now that school is done and it's banned. no explanation, no response, nothing.
So thank you all the idiots out there that feel the need to exploit, rmt, hack, w/e for ruining it for the rest of us. Now we are all guilty until proven innocent because of you idiots.
My first RNF post. That's how it works right? Did i do good?
I don't even know why i check the forums any more.

Some people here are going to troll you.
Normally I would too. But I found you to be credible. Combination of registration date + the storyline matches up close enough with the petition queue times.
Its unfortunate you got caught in what I would assume was a mass ban. If its RMT related, its possible that it is a mistake.
No petition reply seems to indicate they aren't sure, so I guess you might never know.
We aren't too far removed (2014-2015) from a time when it was possible to be banned for no valid reason on Red, without going into more detail, so I definitely sympathize with your situation.

This. One of my accounts got hit with a ban because of RMT - however it was from a trade with someone who had dirty plat. GM's cleared it out, but its best to have logs of it. Hard to keep score. But maybe they'll figure that out for you at some point

You say you haven't shared your password, did anyone share your password with you and you logged onto their account?

Yep wonder if he will find all of his droppables missing when his account is unbanned.

if the eqemu is still working then why don't you reset the account there ? if it is your account from start.
Or did you missplace your eqemu account and your login account = not your account from start.

Don't think it matters if he resets the password on EQemu, because the account has been banned. It's not just a case of forgot the password. Also, he clearly states he has the EQemu info. Reading comprehension FTW!!!!

Still something is off. They questioned if he was owner. Perhaps OP bought said account/forum handle and due to IP tracking they traced him. Or maybe he is clean. Shit I don't know.

I kind of agree. I think my life would improve greatly.
Not that me saying this makes any difference at all, but everything I said was correct and accurate. I'm not sure how or when Rants and Flames turned into Troll and Lie, but okay. I had a rant, so I came to Rants and Flames. Seems logical to me?
I'm not sure if it was coincidence or not, but the GMs contacted me and reset my account for me. It wasn't hacked, nothing was missing, and the character was in the exact same spot I left it a year ago. I'm not sure how my account got flagged as RMT, but all is well now! Thank you staff.
I still hate all of you that require the GMs to spend countless hours banning accounts because you feel the need to endlessly circumnavigate the rules of the server.
I thought i'd give you guys some type of resolution to my plight.

GMs will need to provide proof or it didn't happen.
$10 says he gave his password out to somebody one time and it hasn't worked out well.

dont give passwords out, kids.
So I need to step in here apparently.
It had nothing to do with passwords being given out. It has everything to do with the platinum and items he received on his character.
Most likely he obtained a hand-off from someone who was carrying an item ID that was flagged for association with RMT. If they suspect someone is an RMT mule what they do is track + ban whatever it does.
Often times these alleged RMT mules are actually normal players (go figure) who also happen to RMT. RMT is a hobby of smaller scale than people often consider. Its literally just something they like to do. Like buy and sell items. The money they get they don't care about. Its like playing the EC tunnel, just a different set of rules.
Its very easy for a GM to recklessly ban someone for RMT because what it looks like in log files, isn't always what it is, especially when you are just going by "where did the items end up? whats his relationship to the player" which is very flimsy.
This is why enforcement went in the direction of RMT stings, because then its more smoking-gun and no guesswork.
Stings are not the only method of enforcement. Hence allowing this ban to occur in error.

sidenote - would be awesome to have my old forum accounts back, I try every couple months to guess the passwords, the old emails are deleted and even if they weren't I'm pretty sure I would need a series of alt-codes to get it correct... happy to still have the server accounts though =)

I thought he was giving some dipshit cash he farmed from HG's and badmouthing Rogean in public?
Other then that Uth seemed pretty legit. Tried his damndest to keep the big dawgs in line. If only he had created the 10 day ban. Imagine where we'd be today.
