Recently, on February 6th 2014, a number of banned accounts were accessed on Red 1999. These accounts were never unbanned, but were instead able to be accessed via an error that occurred during the February 5th hotfix. This exploit was attended to immediately, and there was approximately a 24 hour window where accounts could be accessed.
During this small window, a number of accounts were accessed and immediately stripped of all items and gear. We believe this firmly implies that the players who logged into these accounts were aware that the ability to access their banned accounts may have been an exploit, but did not report it. Out of all the accounts accessed, only a single person who got gear off an account mentioned it to the staff prior to the bannings.
After much discussion, we as a staff have decided the accounts banned in that wave will remain banned. Any account that received items from a banned account will remain banned.
The exception to this is characters who were merely used in a quick transfer (IE, the items went to you and then were immediately transferred to another character). If you were not the end recipient of a 'banned item', then please petition on the petition/exploit forum and we will provide instructions on how to have your account unbanned.
Thank you, and enjoy your weekend!

So let me get this right..
Someone who has quit the server logs in. They give their items back to the guild. They ask some random guild member to transfer this stuff to the guild. That person takes the items with intention of them giving them back to the guild bank.
The person who just happened to be in TS who took the items to hold them eats a perma ban.
Seems totally justified?
