A few hackers here and there might try to claim that they weren't hacking after getting banned, but when you have 100+ pages of people with high-leveled, NX'd out characters saying the same thing then there's obviously something wrong.
Well I guess not many SP members have been hit by it. Myself and Verrkol in this thread, Foxino (now released), and the perma autobanned guy in this other thread: http://www.southperry.net/showthread.php...l,%20Nexon...
There have been some threads on Basil, and of course on Nexons forum.
When snooping around Basil, I saw in threads from a few months back that the GMs were at least occasionally unbanning people back then (even ones who admitted hacking), but apparently they never do now.
So with the Tempest update we had:
1) lag autobans rare, usually only for people with really bad internet --> lag autobans now much easier to get
2) lag autobans usually one day long, rarely 30 --> now usually 30 days, rarely perm
3) longer bans occasionally released if ask nicely --> now never released, neither 30-day nor perm
4) the 30-day version has no pop-up ban message when you try to log in
