DANGER pink been banned us

Does the below have anything to do with it? I just pulled out the part about a map ban or whatnot. From the extraction section with the pb thread:

Hawk Statue (MR)

Skill1 - Interesting, this skill has a "banMessage" associated with it. Here's what it says in Korean - 석상의 힘에 의해 다른 장소로 쫓겨났습니다. It bans you to map 270040000 and that map is called "신전 깊은 곳 : 부서진 회랑". More information in spoiler:

Here's what that map 270040000 looks like:



From there, you should be able to use a return scroll to get out. There's nobody in this room.

If you do use a return scroll, you'll go to map 270000000 which is called 타임로드 : 시간의 신전 and has a map description of "시간의 여신을 모시는 신전이다. 과거와 현재 그리고 미래의 시간이 공존하고 있다." Here's what 270000000 looks like:



There's one NPC in this room. His name is 신전관리인. Here are some of the other things he says:


"여신의 꿈을 방해하지 마십시오."
"이번 달 시간의 미아 명단을 볼까..."
"일반 참배객은 받지 않습니다."
"여신은 눈뜨지 않습니다. 태어난 그 순간부터 지금까지, 그리고 앞으로도 영원히 그녀는 잠들어 있습니다. 어쩌면 우리의 삶은 그녀가 꾸는 꿈일지도 모르죠."

Skill2 - Psycho for 10 seconds with 100% success rate

Stage 5:
Physical Attack: 1660 <--
Physical Defense: 1540 <--
Magic Attack: 1010 <--
Magic Defense: 2010 <--
Avoid: 55 <--

I know you guys didn't get up to MR because it was in the beginning but still, could this have something to do with it? Maybe hefferheffer did something different with the signup that caused this problem? I mean why else would this part of PB be here with "banMessage?" I didn't check the extraction thread but maybe I'm wrong and I'm just outdated. There's a lot of maybes but whatever. I think Khaini is gonna run this coming weekend so we'll see what's up. Maybe join you with the banned problem

Here's PB's reaction:

Sigh.

Nah, that's actually a that skill that a lot of monsters use like dodo, frankenroid, bot-catching monsters, etc. The exact message it shows is "You have been ousted by the force of Munin." If I remember correctly, its range is extremely small in the middle of the map; you practically have to be standing right below PB to get booted. It sends you to a map where there's a NPC that allows you back in the map or so the script name implies, along with a portal leading out.

Can we hide this thread until Excellent attempts Pink Bean again? They need a vacation.

LOL qft. This banning glitch along with the DC hack will prolong Scania from being the first to take down PB. If these two things weren't known, Scania would have been free of us until Aug 7th.

Seriously though, good luck on getting unbanned. That's is a lot of combined hunting / paying for masks, grinding to be PB ready, washing to be PB ready... only to get banned "for the HACK reason".

the ticket is still open, but we are all back in rankings. i am patching right now but i am pretty sure we are back.

Can we break out the party favors yet? :f6:

let us drink tequila till the lolis drop, we all unbanned

Greetings,

Thank you for contacting Nexon America's Customer Support team.

After a careful investigation of your ban, it has been discovered that your account was erroneously identified hacking in our in-game data and subsequently blocked for thirty days. At this time, you should now be able to access your account once again and no further restrictions have been placed on your account.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. If there is anything else that we can assist you with, please let us know.

Sincerely,

GM Libra
Nexon America, Inc.

Well what do you know.

Well what do you know.

.....LolFailAutomatedResponse.

But still...what about the others? -_-

They should have put it in writing that they were wrong... oh wait, they did :f6:

I think this deserves a +1 for Nexon's staff. It's a pretty deep hole they are climbing out of though, but +1 anyway.

Thing is now, how do you know if it's safe to go Pink Bean again? They haven't said anything about if the actual problem that caused it was fixed in the patch.

I'm not giving any +1's to Nexon yet, especially after that 'illegal meso' ban. They need to put up more notices or whatever about these things, to make people aware of it. Or let us know if it was actually fixed or not, since if it wasn't, the next Pink Bean squad would just get banned again. :/

All of the recent wrongful bans (Pink Bean and those "illegal" mesos) seems to have hurt Nexon's BBB rating:

From an F...to a B...then backwards again...how shameful

Cant you just file a complaint with the BBB and they will adjust the grading for the company accordingly? If thats how it works, it doesnt even take into account what the complainers actions were to result in the complaint in the first place.

yea, that seems like an awfully low number a-@

Just saw hefferheffer's video, thought I might as well post it here:

Oh, and according to the first two minutes of PB fighting, you were doing about 150m damage per minute, over double what is needed take PB down. I guess Nexon never thought that you would do such epic damage.

Damn, at the rate they were going, they could have come very far, maybe even kill it but I don't know. D: Sucks that happened. Hopefully they fixed it already, so you can try again.

I assume you're referring to the 3 full refunds. At least that's what I noticed.

I knew about the ban and stuff but I didn't know they nearly wiped the Scholar Statue out in those 3 minutes. :f6: That's incredible. Sucks even worse now, knowing how far that was. They're right when they say Windia is WINdia.

Their clinching to a flawed ToS sure bit them in the rear.

i see my sexy afro in that video
