Hi, so back in december I learned what mob tagging is and how amazing it is. I did it on my 2nd account (while controlling both on the same IP). I got sent to GM island back in december by GM Leythia, and at the time I figured it was against the rules because of how OP the leveling method was, so after that I never did it again. What happened while at GM island the first time though is that I was sent there on both accounts, but literally nothing was said to me. Idk if there are chat logs from back then, but I'm pretty sure I even remember saying "Hello?" and whatnot. But yeah, I figured it was for mob tagging and stopped doing it. Fast forward today and I'm afk on my warlock in stormwind while raiding MC on my priest. This time I can see the GM in /say telling me whats going on and how I was caught multiboxing again and how they have to close both of my accounts.

But the thing is that I truly didn't know that I was doing anything against the rules...I even talked to my friends about how I got sent to GM island and the consensus was that you can only have two accounts on at the same time if at-least one of them is in a major city. I understand now this obviously is not the case, and that it's my god damn fault for not reading the terms of service, but I was literally convinced that I wasn't doing anything against the rules. I was just enjoying raiding molten core on my main, while afk on my warlock alt in stormwind. Because honestly if I knew it was against the rules to have a second account in stormwind, why would I even risk staying logged in afk?

I realize i'm a complete jackass for not reading the terms of service, and the more I type this the more hopeless I realize this post is, but I figured I'd have to try. Obviously I could be lieing about not seeing the GM talking the first time, but it's the truth. And really to say "it's impossible you didn't see it" isn't fair, because I didnt... I had so many friends on nostalrius that I played with daily, helping them gear and having so much fun along the way. I put so many days of time into it. Please reconsider this. I had no clue that being AFK in stormwind while playing on my main would result in my months of work being destroyed. I wasn't warned by Leythia back in December. No sane person would risk such an important thing over not exiting out of 2nd client. It's not fair for Leythia to say that "There's no way you weren't warned". Something must have been broken back then...Please I will take 7 day ban and never do anything like this again...
either way it has been a victory knowing this GM has been banned.

You agree to the terms when creating an account, and not reading them is your fault. One would think you would take the time to read them if you really care for your account, especially after breaking them the first time.

Though I don't necessarily agree with how strict the multiboxing rules are (when having one afk in a city), it's not up to me or you.

I also see you don't do much other reading on the forums. You missed the sticky in caps; "DO NOT POST YOUR ACCOUNT NAME!".

Good luck.

I never scammed anyone or anything malicious like that, I never thought this could happen...:(

edit: also thanks for reminding me, those are actually my character names, idk why I said account name
