There's alot of things you're not supposed to do that tons of players have broken, meaning that probably half the players could be banned: (BTW the link to the Terms of Use is incorrect on the website, it has the Privacy Policy = ToU , and the ToU = EULA)

:) just see the main bold+underlined.

And if you see anyone violating these rules, send in a ticket. Simple as that. You got banned for using macros/botting. Done deal.

It's in the rule :P. Very simple.

I wil attest and say that this HAS been re-written in the past 2 years. Some of the wordings and details about some things have been expanded. I read this forever ago too.

bugs exploited :

* jail glitch
* bm2 retargetting with key (introduction of z as default).
* spots in dungs and ca's where u can't be hit.
* dung relogs and u retain ur place and buffs r reset.

What was appalling in the long run was that those became "shades of grey" issues, meaning, some GM's in the past u asked said they were legal. It took them a long time to correct those. Made so many players think they were allowed.

Spamming is a universal sin. Not only is it annoying but it takes away one's privacy too. And bot spamming has been exploited for so long up to now by the alz sellers constantly messaging you first via public then private then the mailboxes! It's making you think yet again that it's legal and EST allows buying alz, mainly due to its apparent helplessness to rid this place of these spam bots.

Don't forget the IC multiple stones glitch that ppl abuse often to get more drops! With so many things there should be a 2-3 strikes out system with a much stricter run-through of strikes. In other words, yes second chances, however higher screening checks so people are less likely to repeat offense. With the inclusion of IP blocks on 3rd strikes. More sever consequences, but a couple more chances so you're not completely ruined by a one time mistake.

Well if Kill Stealing is a bannable offense, I should have been banned a few thousand times by now...

Like you were intentially KS-ing them multiple times (Not included to war, this is more for regular maps on mobs and bosses, and yes, event mobs)
