It seems a bit underhanded that in order to play on this server, one must keep extensive logs of what they are doing at all points in time, should they spontaneously be accused of something.

What did you have for lunch on October 23rd, 2012? Someone ate a baby on October 23rd, 2012. If u can't prove what you ate with logs (of feces) saved from October 23rd, 2012, you're guilty of eating babies.
Well. I guess in the online elf sim world where no one knows your true identity outside of an in game name and a forum handle, you'll have to live with being charged with eating babies. You have been found guilty of cyber crime! Your punishment is not actual. The inference has been reached. Your virtual identity will be besmirched! You have been found guilty enough for the internet! May bandwidth have mercy on your processor!

Funny story, this large corporation I contracted for had a bunch of (really) old databases lying around on ancient mainframe servers (like COBOL old). They were taking up a lot of space, and cluttering up the place.

So I disabled them. The ones that were actually in use we heard about pretty quick, they got turned back on. The rest got deleted and subsequently thrown out. Sure I could have poured over the minutiae in every log file on so many servers (which would have meant writing COBOL [You must be logged in to view images.

(In this analogy the servers are RMTers, Throndor is the annoying HR person, and I am god wielding the ban hammer of justice)

Yeah, well fortunately I don't stand accused, but your eagerness to slurp from the tip is astounding. I don't think ive ever seen such enthusiam. You make the women of Pornhub look lazy.

For the record, I'm not opposed to the banning of RMT accounts. I'm opposed to the suggestion that I should have to run logs, and then ressurect and reconstruct a timeline of events upon request in order to disprove baseless claims. If devs want to promote the sense of vigilance against RMT they purport, then diligence should go hand in hand with said vigilance, lest we recreate the salem witch hunts in Norrath. It's not the responsibility of those seeking a little requiem from the monotony of RL in the world of norrath, to undertake the burden of cataloging every single fukkin thing they do.

Except you forgot to mention that one or more diapers with DNA matching that of one or more of the babies was found in your possession. Where were you that day? How did you come by that diaper?
