Huh. That's interesting. I didn't realize this was from 12/19. As I said, I have no idea what conversations have gone on before hand. I'm actually coming in really late to this party because until this month I had no idea what alt tab jumping is.
So, this person doesn't even know what "alt tabbing" is and they're somehow the authority on the legality of this?

Hjial was 100% transparent about alt+tabbing, he publicly posted videos and helped level the playing field by sharing his strategies and paths. Within this thread there's already posts of AM alt tabbing as well and now all of AM's video suddenly go private? Hjial didn't post one video which later led to a two Vulak concession and AM threw a fit, where are their videos? I stood on the Kael FTE line while CSR dt'ed people who had their feet across the starting line and listened to Hjial (AW) and Detoxx (AM) openly talk about alt tab running. I have to respect Hjial for being honest about this and forthcoming.

The race on 12/19 that led to this suspension is not a case of "everyone is doping (illegal) and Lance Armstrong is an asshole so some high achievers also feel they need to take steroids." It's "wow Golden State is making 46% of their three pointers (not illegal), we need to start taking more 3 pointers." Now that the staff has spoken I respect that it's a rule, however, I just don't see how this is punishable.

I have to give props to the rules lawyers who got this suspension. It's tough to keep up with raid rules as it is and ex post facto rules are just impossible to comply with! Ex post facto laws are laws that punish as a crime an act previously committed, which was innocent when done. These laws are expressly prohibited in the United States Constitution because many of the Founders regarded retroactive laws, both civil and criminal, as contrary to the principle of legality itself.

"Anything that alters your frame rate whether be 3rd party or within the game is not allowed during ToV/Kael FTE foot races"

^ thats literally all that ever had to be written into the rules without having to throw an entire community of Everquest players under the bus.

I'm not aware of the bugs/exploits in VP so this alt tab jump mechanic seemed legal in my eyes.
no one cares about your sob story cheater

and for the record the aftermath folks that also did this are fire giants as well

Sirken got Awakened suspended. Had any of this been verified as illegal it would've stopped long ago.

I don't think Sirken feels bad about slapping unjustified bans on Awakened because they get so many kills as it is.. he uses it as an excuse to let the other kiddies use the sandbox.

Problem for Awakened now is the fact that Hjial isn't on their team. Kill lists might get smaller.

Which is worse, smaller or none at all ? I'm sure we would be just fine with "smaller".
