Perhaps he got early release due to Covid-19.

When players could buy/sell characters on p99 for plat, TMO was buying characters with plat they bought with real $. Parking them at raid zones and then when a mob popped they would 'mass' login the characters at that raid zone.

I say TMO, it was probably a smaller amount doing the shady part, but it affected tmo as a whole. And thus everyone under that tag gets called out.

Just a refresher for the new people [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Well you know something is up when it is common knowledge Durison did the dirty on his own pixels (and his wife's) to buy DJ equipment or something along those lines yet the <TMO cohort/leadership> flat out deny that even happened.

So to expect them to come clean YEARS after the fact seems a bit of an ask.

My personal theory on this is that if they (leadership) had come clean on it at the time and pursued Durison via petitions:

1. The pixels were long gone anyhow and would just get banned.
2. Members of their own guild probably purchased them and would subsequently get banned (loss of members).
3. After the MQ delevel debacle (all those toons getting deleveled to 55 for using MQ - an FYI for the uninitiated) then to have a pixel debacle would not have been a good thing.
4. and most probably the highest on this list was guild reputation.


*shrug* it's good to bring it up from time 2 time, make them squirm by letting them know that people know.

Um I am confused what was this for?

A bunch of stuff, including 2 boxing. I didn't get caught. Scared me straight. A VD officer got caught whom had my account info. That scared me too.

You are so far off dude. I remember hearing that Durison may have disappeared/RMTed, but it's not like he was holding TMO's guild bank. That's not our problem. I would be surprised if it wasn't put in front of the staff.

TMO as I recall had only a few (3 or 4) low ranking members hit in Cheatgate 2011. The list is public. We had less people busted than many much smaller guilds, and none of our leadership or key players got nailed (unlike Transatlantic Rampage whose raid leader got busted using Harry Potter Maps during raids, in addition to many others). Maybe you remember Heroleeofcub and the other players of his relative value that got busted in TMO [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Durison took off with a lot of Dark Ascension guild bank, but next to nothing from the TMO side of things. I was able to personally intercept some of the items that TMO inherited via the merger that he tried to get.
