Ban 'em all, let God sort 'em out

[Davion Falcon]

I'm still eagerly awaiting a confession of some sort which may or may not be a troll at this point.

Tell me some more about your e-heroics

Only after you tell him about your e-problems

ITT e-peens

Then I'll be shouted down by 100 bloodthirsty shitposters that turn from bitter hardmen into squealing fanbois whenever CCP "cracks down" on exploiters

Ho ho ho. Righteous zing, imo. Well aimed.

My intent wasn't to brag about "e-heroics", it was to establish that what I wrote in the next part of that post came from actual experience regarding forums and claims of unfair play, as opposed to just talking out my ass like people on forums tend to do.

Also note that I haven't really made any claims as to your guilt or innocence in terms of macro use besides speculation that, based on patterns from other similar threads, I wouldn't be surprised for it to eventually come out that you used some kind of "tool" that did something (even something "innocent") which injected some python or maybe modified your client files in some way.

It's pretty clear that if I'm going to get a fair trial, it's going to be via PMs to CCP employees, and not from the mob. I just started this thread because I wanted to get info on how best to proceed from peeps that have been through similar ordeals. For those of you who have posted suggestions in that vein, I thank you.

I'm intrigued why you were under the impression that here would be any different from Eve-O? I mean, half the people here aren't even subbed, half are masochists, and half are sadists (with some overlap). At least if you had posted there, you would receive some official attention.

I wasn't under that impression, believe me











(protip: you can't post on EvE-O forums when you are banned)

So tell us what you did. We know you know. Just spill it.

Also, I spent about 4 years as part of an anticheat community for server owners for an FPS. Of the countless "omg y u ban me im innocent" threads (seriously, people are retarded), only one of them turned out to be wrongly banned, and that one was actually because of a rare occurrence (it effected 5 out of 10,000 people) of a check that had caught about 40+ people who were definitely cheating.

1 in 8 false positive rate is not rare.

You have an amazing grasp of basic arithmetics.

What's the significance of -350m? Surely that has some meaning to you unless you're a billionaire (e.g. laundered RMT ISK through mods or something)

That could be understood as implying you don't become a space-billionaire without laundered rmt isk?
But surely you didn't mean that?

Er, no.

What I mean is 350m is a lot of cash for someone who, for example, might only have made their first 1b recently. For someone with tens or hundreds of bil in an account that has a lot of movement in it might not be able to pinpoint it as easily (or even notice it immediately).

As soon as my ban expires and I CAN post on the EvE-O forums, I WILL post about it and waive my right to confidentiality. You can bet that the first thing that will happen is that the GMs will simply post a copypasta accusation that "a security team looked into it and found the report to be valid". Then I'll be shouted down by 100 bloodthirsty shitposters that turn from bitter hardmen into squealing fanbois whenever CCP "cracks down" on exploiters (you know, when they need positive press for an expansion or for fanfest.)

Don't.

It'll actually be in the order of 100 bloodthirsty shitposters followed by a GM that will lock the thread & possibly ban you for discussing moderation.

I mean, half the people here aren't even subbed, half are masochists, and half are sadists (with some overlap).

So FHC = 1.5 x Cunts ?

At least if you had posted there, you would receive some official attention.

Yeah, another ban.

[Frug]

unsubbed sadomasochist here. Also op is a hacking bastard and I hope CCP comes down even harder on him.

So that I can masturbate to it.

not really as it requires that person who was falsely banned to have a bug that effected 1:2000 people and also apparently have something that flagged him to be banned. Otherwise it wouldn't of just been that one person falsely banned for that bug/error. Sadly I don't think we have the proper numbers to calculate the chances of that happening again

4. The EULA says that in addition to automation of the game client, "patterns of play" that allow you to accumulate ISK faster than "normal" is also against the rules. That can obviously mean whatever they want it to mean. The ban reason they gave me, though, specifically says "MACRO".

The EULA pretty much says they can ban you for whatever reason they want whenever they want, they don't need to hide behind calling you a macro if you're really not

I'm guessing you did something shady and are just lying about it or someone else has your details and they did something shady. You can maybe try asking Sreegs or someone from security directly, but i suspect he'll laugh in your face or just ignore you.

'Something shady' can be just that, something. He probably did 'something' without even realising it, i doubt he was intentionally complicit.
