Alright, here's the thing. You're right. Just because you lied about MQ2 doesn't mean that you're lying about everything else. But you HAVE to know that it certainly hurts any claim to credibility to had. I wanted to believe you. The OOC/shout drew me out of the tunnel and I watched for a few minutes before you were banned. You were basing your argument and credibility at the time on that. It was your choice. When that turned out to be a lie, given that YOU were trying to gather momentum with it, you lost the faith of most people. How could you not see that coming when you began this crusade?

As far as things not being able to be traced retroactively it doesn't seem to matter. I don't remember if it was Sirken or Rogean, but one of them said they had already flagged the accounts they uncovered using MQ2 that were trying to usurp detection. They were simply investigating further to make sure no one was banned. Stopping now wouldn't seem to hinder that whatsoever. If I'm wrong? Well, then instead of helping you seem to actually have hurt the server quite a bit. Instead of those players being banned your 'interview' served to help them keep playing when it was revealed that the server staff is onto them. Yet another thing you must not have considered.

The whole time it just seemed like you were a middleman for Stabbyjoe. Sirken and Rogean were trying to ascertain if you had anything new to give them, or simply the same old information. You spent too much time talking about that same information. I'm positive you have something, but I'm really unsure if you have any more than Stabbyjoe already gave them. If it's just a couple people on a long spreadsheet of RMTing that weren't banned it may just be because they were having trouble proving it concretely. It doesn't mean they didn't have information to begin with.

So, what do you do? Stop trying to be blue99 Superman. Apologize to the GMs for the way you handled this. It was short-sighted. Release everything you have. Send it to ALL of them, rather than just trusting one. If they all cover it up there's no hope of stopping it anyway. Post it publically on the forums. Rogean and Sirken weren't exactly warm to the idea of another huge thread coming out of this, but if that's what it took for you to feel comfortable it seemed like they would let it stay open. Hell, send it to some of the people on the board. I'm sure some of us would continue your crusade if this was all deemed true. I would, albeit in a much different way. If what you say is true, and it's such a big deal, I'm sure those members of TMO that had no idea about it would even be disgusted into action. If nothing else I hope it would cut the guild in half, allowing the honest members who care more about the server than the pixels to thrive.

If you came right out with all this shit people would back you. Shit, if you helped to fix the problem and didn't get your account back I have no doubt that you would get offers left and right to be PLd to the same level as that character was. Frankly, it's the perfect resolution if you're telling the truth. The staff still gets to ban you to dissuade others from making a public spectacle of yourself, and you still a fresh account with a level whatever character on it. Most would probably even help gear you up! But again, only if what you had actually mattered and you handled it well from here on.

Two questions I can't seem to clear up in my mind.

1) You said you were pretty new to the server when you bought this account, didn't you? Well, where did you get the plat to pay for it? The amount I heard was 60k, and that doesn't come from farming a few spiderling silks and pelts to make padding, like most new people on this server.

2) That account was flagged on May 23rd. It was mentioned that you started your thread complaining about the banning on May 29th. You said you'd only had the character a few days. Given that you have MQ2 now.. are we to believe you didn't use it then, and simply waited a week and a half to complain about your banning?

I'm not trying to be a dick. I'm trying to help you, and to understand.

He said he got it from selling items from an account he received from a friend who quit.

Shit. This entire business is Sketchier than asking for a happy ending at an Asian Massage parlor.

Protip, it's not sketchy if you know how to ask.

Missed my duel victory by 2 minutes! Bah

If what he says is true then everyone running the server/paying the bills is corrupt there is nothing players can do but leave. It is all just pointless whining.

For sure a hacker. I could tell that from the beginning because Zoombaah (Bhak) knows EQ in an out , and those tells r legit.
