I believe that Forum would not help this specific person anyway, as he admitted to using his brother's account, which is prohibited

he said he was on his brother's account. that falls under multying. however, there are mitigating circumstances, such as that fact that his account was inaccessable, and if he created a new account for the express purposess of contacting you, he would have also been multying.

well.. if his account was inaccessible at the time he would have had no choice but to use another to contact someone about the problem, I think it would still count as only having one account.

So, first up you all wanted to mass him after the hijacker started sending messages.

Now you want him to be drawn and quartered for getting his brother (his brothers account) to send a message to his alliance? And someone how you think this is multiying and worth a ban?

I honestly can't belive the level of stupiditiy some people here have.

Frick...

I'm starting to feel bad about posting the Windwaker topic...

Any chance that gave them an idea?
