Another great way to get banned - Kuraitou - 2012-03-03
Got a one day ban for AFKing at Jesters for "using illegal programs or violating the game policy."
I was training a character with my HS mule, then decided to go do Chryse quests for the glasses. I left my bishop AFK at the Jesters map for probably 2 or 3 hours. I looked over at my laptop and saw that MapleStory had closed, so I tried to log back in and crashed every time at the channel selection screen. Got the ban message when I used GameLauncher. I did some research and found out that there was a ban problem at chimney maps a while back that was supposedly fixed, so either Nexon never really fixed it or they reintroduced the glitch. So yeah. Don't AFK in chimney maps.
I have a theory that I may have gotten banned due to a botter using some sort of full map attack hack with the Barrel Roll skill on the same map as me. There was one that kept CCing around while I was training there on my other character. Anyone know if this is possible?

if he was attacking, you might have lagged which could cause your ban

It feels like nothing is too far-fetched to get falsely banned these days

This happened about a week ago to me too, except I had asked in the map before himes. Got a lovely 2 day ban.

... I saw the thread title on main forum menu and read 'Another great way to get'... and guessed 'banned'.
jeez, why'd I have to be right? Saddest part is, when i see those random 1 post wonders on forums going on about 'I got banned for doing nothing!!!1'... I no longer can just assume they're lying.

I decided to make some cannoneer mules today and got a one day auto ban for illegal programs too. I was doing jack just walking through the map. Didn't think much of it since well you know what the auto ban system is like. But perhaps it is a more common thing atm?

I've gotten 1 day autobans for doing these things:
-Training at LHC(not glitched)
-CCing to mine gold at Mu Lung/Herb town, got autobanned like that 3-4 times.
-After training at ToT, I went to leafre to afk. Got autobanned there.
-CCed at ElNath I forgot why. Then, I went to FM and afked alone. Got autobanned a few minutes later.
-While walking to zak.
-CCing in the hime map to try to find Crow.
-Doing old Silent Crusade everyday for ambition, then afked at Ludibrium, and got autobanned.
-CCing at Aqua to farm Rudolphs.
-While afking on Ludi on mercedes.
-Went on a my cannon shooter mule to check something there. After a minute, I got autobanned.
-After winning a PvP match.

How do hackers avoid getting autobanned? Is there any way legit players could similarly bypass the autoban?

I have a theory that the reason hack-bots constantly change channel or go in and out of portals has to do with autoban avoidance.
The last time I was banned a few days ago, it was for the 'illegal program' reason, and I had nothing running except the game, firefox and a text editor that use to load passwords. I was training in a mini-dungeon, so I can't blame hackers passing through my map/channel for that one.
I've also got banned one time while afk on a safe platform, ie doing absolutely nothing.
So far, all have been 1-day bans, but I'm getting worried that the theory that if you get x bans within y period they become month or permabans could be valid. Anybody know if that is true?
Edit: Though Hellenzsin post makes that look doubtful.
