Recently we have put in place a system to give people who are "permanently" banned one more chance.  Basically how this would work is people who had bans for duping or exploiting physical items, virtual items or money will have the opportunity to appeal their ban and have it removed and in place have some restrictions placed on their account.  Hacking/scripting bans including bans from spawning money are not eligible for removal.

Restrictions are as follows:

  1. House limit of 3
  2. Vehicle limit of 10
  3. Cannot pickup money off the ground
  4. Cannot give/take money to/from players
  5. When robbed your money is 1/2'd
  6. When robbing another player it is 1/2'd
  7. Cannot do Taxi/RnR invoices
  8. Money will not drop when killed, it gets deleted.
  9. Cannot give/take from gangbank
  10. Cannot give/take wire transfers to/from players
  11. Players lose 15% when selling virtual items to stores

Given the infractions that landed people with their respective perms this not only gives them another chance to play on our servers but it also reduces opportunities for individuals to backslide onto their old nefarious ways.

While these restrictions may seem rather harsh the alternative is to be "permanently" banned.  We also recognise that there may be some people who genuinely regret their actions and we are offering the opportunity for these restrictions to be removed after a minimum of 2 months.  There is no guarantee that the restrictions will be removed however and they will be removed on a case by case basis.

If you have alternate accounts and you use them to get around these restrictions it will be considered ban evading and both accounts will be banned.  If you are appealing and have alternate accounts please bring them to our attention beforehand to avoid issues in the future.

 

Also please note since this is the 1.0 version of this system there may be unforeseen issues or potentially more restrictions added further down the line.  If this system is deemed a failure there is also the possibility that it will be scrapped altogether.

I was about to ask the same thing, beat me to it! I guess when you say assholery you mean harassment and such..

I'm assuming this ban appeal is only for dupers? Not general assholery bans?

Mainly for dupers

Does it say "general assholery"? Gary may decide to amend it later on, however the system was currently developed for dupers/exploiters specifically. As this stuff doesn't deter "general assholery" if you will.

Maybe not everyone but I'm sure numbers will be found + it won't bring gang life back but it might bring more fights

Not sure if this will be added but I think people that were perm'd for something less severe than duping or exploiting should be allowed to be apart of this. If they are legitimately adamant about wanting to be reformed, and if they weren't re-banned for an offense soon after they got unbanned then I don't see why not.

I love when people who don’t play civ say “gang life is dead”.

On topic though, I don’t think this is the route we should’ve taken on this issue, but I’m hoping for the best.
