Account banned

Hello guys, my name is Alex Robicheaux and my account Hcslingblade was banned for buying gold. I fully admit to what I did, and I feel iditiotic because I didn't look at the terms of use closely enough to know that it was not allowed. I assumed that since it was considered a "private server" this would not be an issue. I understand the severity of my transgression, and am throwing myself at your mercy. I have spent an inordinate amount of time leveling my warlock, and I truly enjoy playing on the server you guys have created. I am begging for a warning this time, and my account to be unlocked, if possible.

Thank you guys for your hard work and patience,
Hcslingblade

Any client modification (libraries, executables, MPQ, etc.);

Took 15 seconds to find the offense in the ToU.

Hi Alex. Unfortunately this server has a zero tolerance policy towards buying gold. That means there is zero chance of being unbanned for it.

Don't feel like you can't reroll a new character though, just be sure to read the Terms of Use and make sure you follow them. It's a great server.

I have 3x level 60s and over 63 days played here. Rolling to a new level 60 is really not that hard.

I already said that I feel like an idiot dude. That was unnecessary.

Seems to me that you don't understand what class E offence means if it's confirmed. The appeal is only for mistakes in handling the case. This is not a mistake, that is very clear to everybody, including you.

What doesn't seem to be clear to you, is that I did not ask for an appeal, I asked for mercy in my punishment for the offense. Perhaps a definition of appeal is in order.

Law
apply to a higher court for a reversal of the decision of a lower court.
"he said he would appeal against the conviction"

My request is not a reversal. I was asking for a lighter sentence.

Thank you though, it's good to know that I'm not the only person whose parents didn't hug him enough as a child.

You got a permanent ban, which cannot be lifted. Reading the rules is not a valid excuse for any kind of lowering the punishment (but maybe the opposite!)

You're right. I should have read the rules. Ok, then, time to make a new accout and level up again....with no cheating this time.

Bans for account/gold trading are permanent. There is no tolerance for it. Any forgiveness or second chance has to be sought on a new account.
