Banned for nothing? When was the last time you said something bad or was mean to someone? What about that mule account that you bot in FM with? How about mass defames? How about KSing?
There were sure a lot of hackers who also stood fast on their claims of legitimacy as well.
The whole "trust" issue seems to be another sad example of the People vs. Pixels debate here in MS, and there were cases where things have been taken too far for both sides. (I would imagine things to have been as bad as using religion to prove a hacker's innocents to the breaking of marriages/relationships, real-life ones that is, all over a few pixels.) It's still quite hard to draw a fine line when it comes to this.
I believe the harassment cases (Badmouthing people, KSing) are only 1-3 day bans, and that they won't do anything about mass defaming. (The only exception is if the mass defaming was done due to fame hacking, but I haven't recalled anyone getting punished for doing this.)
Of course it's reasonable to be banned for FM mule botting, but then again, I haven't heard much about such bannings occuring, given how the same FM guilds take over and control FM 1 CH 1 with their names gladly posted.
And about the hacking thing, was there a mass banning after the PG hacking incident?
