Permanent Bans - 01/10/11 to 01/23/11

Then I'll explain. If they list every character from every banned account, then the list shows the total characters and not total accounts. If they list only one character per account, then it would represent the total number of accounts banned, but the number of characters gone is significantly higher.
Although, this line of discussion is a bit pointless since we have next to no information on how nexon compiles these lists, and we simply wont know the exact statistics.

Oh i get'cha. I still think the list represents accounts banned and should be seen as such. Other characters being affected by the process should be assumed from the start, just like how when they put out the "Over x million registered users" statistic it does not show any indication of actual active players.
