Multiboxing Affluenza: The Curious Case of the Banned Idiot

Hello, I am a long time player and supporter of Nostalrius, I have been playing since about 2-3 weeks after release, and I recently got back into it after quitting for a while to level up a warrior to tank instances for my friends at 60. I had a 60 already (Ogreshoot) and I multiboxed to help my warrior level, which I didn't realize was against the Terms of Use since other servers are more lax about in terms of PvE.

Anyway, I received my warning and stopped assisting my warrior levelling, but stupidly enough I didn't actually read the terms of use to see what was and wasn't allowed. I assumed wrongly that just helping yourself out wasn't okay, not that multiboxing period wasn't allowed.

The second time around I wasn't even on the same continent or zone as my alt when I got transported to GM Island, my 60 was going to Undercity to buy some items and send gold to my alt and then fly to Kargath afterward. I was corpse running my alt at the time, I had no intention of helping him level other than giving gold/gear, which I later read IS allowed, but only if both characters are in a main city.

Anyway, I'm not saying I'm not at fault here. I fucked up, I was drunk and careless last night and now I am hungover and posting on here with my tail between my legs. I solemly swear I will never even launch two instances again, whether I get unbanned or not. All I ask for is a little New Year's mercy, let me have a fresh start :)

Also, big thank you to GM Leythia for helping me find the correct outlet for this!

You can have a fresh start by creating a new account.

If GM's start giving you a 3rd chance, then they should give everyone else banned for multiboxing a 3rd chance as well, so obviously they will have to stick to the rules.

Knowing the server rules is pretty important. Don't multibox anymore on you new accounts.

It's your fault. Have fun releveling.

Greetings,

You were warned about multiboxing on the 29th of December, and decided to do so again on the 1st of January. Being drunk does not excuse the breaking of our Terms of Use for the second time in less than three days, same as being drunk doesn't excuse you from breaking the law. Feel free to open a new account and follow our rules.

Regards, GM Team
