Couple’a comments here.

Okay, I understand that you’re upset, perhaps rightfully so. I even said so via Tubmail, apologized, and gave you a way to rectify all of it, which was pwn the thread you were in the middle of and proceed from there, and then ET will adjust the numbers appropriately and give you back a forum visit (on Monday, no doubt, when I can again talk to him real-time). So I’m not sure why you think they can’t be given back or why your character’s “permanently ruined”.

Now I’d like to understand something, though. The ban lasted for one minute or less (3:14-3:15 server time). During it, you were not kicked out of your currently-pwned thread; bans don’t stop you from doing what you’ve been doing (just ask the illegal alts I’ve found in INCIT who kept playing for hours after I banned them). So — how did that action of mine directly affect your failure to pwn the thread? You shouldn’t even have been aware of it in the midst of the thread, as nothing pops up saying “Hey, you’re banned!” I just don’t get how it became such an issue.

Unless, since this is an RP thread as well, you’re just trolling me, in which case, well done. You got me.

Your apology means nothing as long as that thread is open and it could happen again. The reason I lost the visit is simple: I was raiding. Which means I refreshed the domination tab, where I got the ban notification. At that point I did not know what to do and I made the mistake of logging out. Because I’m kind of new to the whole getting banned thing and stuff. Next time I’ll know what to do, sorry for being so stupid.
