We do have an eye on the uptick of false ban reports, but I would be wary; a lot of folks are being hit with bans for RMT-ing.

I’m glad you guys have noticed hopefully something gets done before we lose actual committed players.
Yes but when will people who have been false banned receive compensation, its ridiculous!

I just love that we finally have rmt’ers getting banned
dont be naiive and feel sorry for some of these ‘friend got false banned’. 95 percent of the cases are people who know exactly what they are doing and got caught with their pants down. There’s a lot of RMTers who bought gold legitimely and on the other side bought gold from 3rd parties. The only difference now is AGS is finally acting on with the ban hammer on these guys.

I mean most are prob legit, it took 6 days for me to get unbanned and support never contacted me once, I had to contact them and ask everyday, Even when I got unbanned I got no message or anything. I missed 2 wei card spawns that week and all my dailies/weeklies.
the Reason they need friends to type on forums for them is because you cant type on forums if you are “banned”

Everyone is innocent, no one did anything but they magically have level 10 gems while having a roster 100-120 account. Is gear 1490, 90+ grade accessories. I’m sure they obtained the gold by paying amazon instead of getting 2x as much gold for the same x euro via a 3rd party site.

I can confirm your banning is out of control and is hitting Innocent folks. A friend of mine who I’ve played with since day 1 got hit with a ban and your outlandish appeal process asking for proof you didn’t do something wrong when you don’t even know what you are accused of is insanity.

Since you have let whales get away with murder in the early days with at most a 3 day ban. You all should address how you punish RMT now and in the future.
You set a shitty precedent and while it should have been perma from the get go you all have made this switch without communication (big surprise)
And no i have never RMTd nor been banned just pointing out the ridiculousness of how this has been handled

Yeah… just like the OP said i know someone just like that… all level 10s 1540… RMt’ing. he got banned last week… then somehow 3 days later unbanned… explain that crap.
a 1380 from my guild was banned and the guy was with 1 level 6 gem and 3k gold hahaha
I keep seeing threads like this, I don’t think people realize that actual legit whales exists. You can buy gold from the cash shop, having all level 10 gems at 1540s by buying that. Is it more expensive than RMT? Yeah, but the legit method doesn’t get you banned.
I don’t think some of you realize how much money people spend in this game. There’s a reason there’s a monthly limit to spending in KR, because if people could spend more, they would.
Now, imagine the same story, but in the US, where the 1% has more money than it has air to breathe. Trust me, you’ll see the occasional whale walking around, that isn’t enough to call them a cheater lol
Some people buy expensive cars just to flex on people on the streets, you think people don’t buy gold legit in LOA to flex on F2P players?
occasional… to give you some perspective, if you maxed out RC every day since launch you are at a point where you can have full level 10s… lets not count that +25 weapon @8k gold a tap roughly 180 taps to pity. or all the 100 quality jewelry or the 95+ quality everything… sure man sure.

8k gold per tap? The hell kinda game you’re playing?
+24 to +25
Greater leapstones are 30 per, oreha 9 per (if you don’t craft them yourself), destruction stones are like 5 per 10 at best. With the 870 gold per tap, it’s 3484 gold per tap, shards can run you 100 gold per 1000, so maybe 4k gold if you want to include that.
Whale have confirmed the limit is 1000$ per day. Without taxes, that’s 120k RC per day. Per Day. On my server, that’s 360k gold per day.
Let’s assume that upgrading from +24 to +25 is 6k gold per tap (it’s less than that, but I’m willing to walk with you partway), at 180 taps, like you’re saying, no getting lucky, that’ll run you 1.08M gold. So… 3 days. Let’s even assume it’s the same price from +20 to +25, that’s 15 days.
6 pieces at 95+ quality everything, okay, if I remember properly, the chance to get a 95+ quality is about 0.5% at 800 per try. On average, that’s 160k gold per piece. Or 960k gold total, on average. Let’s assume my boy has the worst luck ever and bump that to 1.5M. That’s… 5 days.
Level 10 gems are… 100k on my server, you need 11 of them, so 1.1M. That’s 4 days.
So, 24 days. LOA released 6 months ago. Assuming the worst luck I’ve ever seen and that the whale actually doesn’t play the game or farm any mats from +20 onward, with the same price as it is going from +24 to +25. Whales have about, what, 150 days margin here?
Look man, I’m not trying to say they’re all good guys, they probably aren’t, but stop pointing fingers and calling people cheaters when you have no other basis. AGS is working on rooting out the bad ones and all it cost you is looking at a person that had a glowing weapon for 5 minutes once in a blue moon.

yea and thats with the gold prices as of here recently. it hasnt even been that long since it jumped to 650. prices rise and fall with the blue crystal costs. those 100k gems? no. thats cooldown gems and thats recent prices. they were 150k each damage gems are 250k-350k each. who runs 11 cd gems man? person im talking bout has had these gems for months. so no im not pointing fingers. but you also forget the initial grind and cost associated with getting from tier 1 to 2 to 3 in early days… it wasnt cheap by any means. GHL were 800g+ a piece. so yea sure with todays prices maybe… but from day 1 til now? no way youre completely disregarding all the cost to get to highest cap before relic gear even released. today? sure they could whale out and be set in a month.
