The only reason I was making so much gold was because I was posting like crazy and also I was fishing and making threads and voting on polls and also drawing for people and they were paying me gold to do it!! :x


I can't understand it..I have never been banned for anything and I have never cheated on anything either. Just eariler today I was told there was a hacker going around by one of my friends, next thing I know I am banned..

I always get the bad end of the rope and I wasn't even doing anything illegal :(

I wrote them a PM back, but I haven't heard anything from them yet..What do I do..Why me :cry:
i predict a asswooping is in order :wink:

Whoa, that sucks, Joker.

Scumbags! That's why I like smaller forums. You have more of a sense of identity. And since people actually know you a little better, they know better than to suspect you of foul play.

:x I hope everything works itself out. *hug*

Keep us updated.

That is so retarded! :x

Thanks guys :D I still haven't heard back from them yet, but the site says it can be from 7 to 14 days till they respond, so I guess I'll just have to give it time :( Perhaps some more e-mails? I dunno..Whatif it doesn't work? What if they say nothing at all? :(

Well, if you want to be apart of Gaia still, then make a new account.
Can you do that?
Different name and all.
I could care less if I am a "freak". I don't care what other people think about me. I am me. I am different from the masses of society in unique and profound ways, anyway. Being physically different would trouble me not

if they ban the ip then you cant because if they ban your ip, they basically just banned your computer and the only way to get back on a differnt account is to go on a differnt computer

generally massively online muliplayer games don't do that. cause in may cases more than one person may use that computer.
They only ban people's IP in say.. counterstrike. (cause there are numerous other servers to go to)
Bah... Stupid Case sensitive Email. Lets try this again !

I've heard about Gaia's problems with scripting hackers. It's not that hard to do, in fact I use scripts in the HTML game Archspace. It's a pain for the administrators because it creates needless website traffic, sucks up bandwidth and indeed is cheating depending on what the script does.

If you are a very active person on the website I can see how they might mistake you as a scripter, especially if a hacker was involved with one of your friends. Guilty by association is good enough for the lamebrain admins. That's how a buddy of mine got banned from Paypal. Now THAT sucks.

What the hell? They can't prove you were using a bot.

This probably means I'm going to get banned eventually too. I don't have a job and nobody's hiring. Sue me.

I guess Gaia finally fell to the Wyrm.
