Hello, I would like to get my old Alla account unbanned.

Here is the story.

About 3 years ago, I saw a post on the basic concept of the "Dupe Bug". "inspired" posted the thread, and the basic explanation. Notice, he didnt get banned. Nor should he.

Now the post was flawed in its technical detail. But the concept was there. Anyone with a little knowhow could do the dupe.

Sooo..... After a few hours of trial and error I got it to work on a glass fishing rod. Only thing i was willing to risk to loosing at the time. As the original posts showed. Needless to say, I wasnt happy. I was damn tired of trying to make gil in that runaway economy with clowns doing nothing but duping. And I wanted something done about it.

After getting trashed in the forums about how the "Dupe bug" was BS. I then posted my "Proof". A detailed description of how to do it. I wanted it fixed, and I knew SE would do nothing, unless the word got out. Same old SE, we all know and love :->.

So, Alla, in thier brilliance banned my account at the time "Xdust". I now use the "DustX" account.

I would like to have my old account back. Seeing that SE has in fact acknowledeged, and FIXED, the bug. Banned tones of people using it.

PS: Just look at the time delay between the dupe (A VERY DETAILED description to erase any douts that it was a problem) going onto a VERY public forum, and SE actually fixing it. Why was this delay sooooo lonnng? Becuase of many forums policy of coverups. This bug would have been fixed MUCH EARLIER had the news gotten out better.

All of which would have NEVER happened unless people like me wouldnt have exposed it to all. And simply wouldnt shut up, through bannings and constant harrasment. In step by step detail. So that SE, couldnt do thier "Its not really a problem", typical BS

Even so, it took forever to actually get the damn thing fixed.

The admin can clearly see which posts got me banned. And that these were the only questionable posts i ever made on that account.

PS: I REALLY think Alla need to change thier policy on "Whistleblowing". Hell, even the US congress is smart enough to give protection to people exposing frauds, and cheats. And those clowns are the biggist idiots on the planet.

Alla's policy of silence and coverups sucks, IMHO, and needs to be changed.

In short, i would like my old account back. In no way should people exposing cheats and frauds be penalised. Thats how things get fixed.

How many problems have you ever seen get solved by silence and coverups???? I dont know of any.

Your alla acct name doesn't need to be the same as your in game name, what do you have obsessive compulsive disorder or something? The only thing that will come out of your post is:

Your reputation will be hurt once again
You will be rated down
People won't care

What's wrong with the name/account you're using now?

Seems it's not the account he's worried about, it's the way it was taken away. Either that or it's a sorry assed attempt for attention. Could be worse, could be another CoP lite thread.

So what? Your account got banned for something you probably shouldn't have done (at least not the way you did it. There were much better ways to get your point across). It doesn't matter why you showed the world how to use the dupe, the fact of the matter is you made it public. Yeah it might have "forced" SE to act, but damage is still going to be done between your act and theirs. It's like passing out a bunch of guns to kids to show the dangers of gun violence and getting mad when you're arrested for the endangerment of minors. Stop seeking attention. If you aren't trying to seek attention ask for your account back three years ago.

1. Its been 3 years....

2. Did you ever put a GM call thru ingame on the "dupe"?

3. Since you've made this nice post, have you PM'd an Admin here about your perceived slight?

4. Its been 3 years..........

5. You have over 100 posts on this current account.

6. Its been 3 fricken years!!!!


Ok in all seriousness now.

IMO you had good intentions but you went about them in the wrong manner. You see a glitch in game you tell a GM or send feedback in on the site. What you don't do is go about figuring out a fool-proof way to do said glitch and then go about posting your refined method on a popular game info site.

I could go on, but you get what i'm saying OP. The whole thing has been over and done a while. Keep going with your current account and let it go man.

I give you much <3's, only because your links lead me to this:

http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/db/poster.html?user=207030

Brings back such good memories, I haven't seen him since he first changed to his FLCL avatar.

Alla needs to have a reunion or something.

Just one question: Duping was done by logging onto 2 computers with roughly the same speed at the same time with the same account and then doing stuffs, right?

Or was it the delivery box method where you created massive amounts of lag and stuffs?

Knowing the admin in questions, she most likely sent you a warning PM first telling you to stop posting that info, then banned you when you failed to comply. Besides that account is sub scholar anyways.
