  • Rank #4 Kaiser GMS BANNED

    Here is a quick TL:DR:
    I wasn't Hacking or botting, I was training in Limina End of the World 1-5 with EXP Buffs and my Frenzy Totem on Saturday August 31st. At around 6:50pm EST I was randomly out of the blue banned. I submitted two tickets so far, one of which was declined quite quickly the other which took a more lengthy time and ultimately denied. I have no proof I didn't hack except the vouches from a few other players and my own word. What can I do do get myself unbanned or is all hope lost for my level 260 Kaiser? Has anyone else been banned with "Mob Manipulation" recently that can help? I don't wanna call it quits now. Is there anything I can do?

    The Full Story (Facts):

    Rank 4 Proof:

    Rank 4 Proof part 2:
    (This one is a little less reliable but shows from the Discord Pink Bean Bot that I was in fact Rank 4 in all of GMS and rank 1 in Aurora)

    The incident (Detailed):

    So, I was training my Level 260 Kaiser in Limina End of the World 1-5. I had MVP Buff active, along with 2 hour EXP Boost potion, Monster park gold and legion/world merge 2x coupons my fire-starter ring and frenzy. I was doing my normal routine of killing mobs which was to jump around using blade burst and refreshing Stone Dragon and Inferno breath. I transformed into final form mid air and after I transformed I used blade burst. That was the last thing I could remember before I was hit randomly with a permanent ban. (Have no video or screenshots to prove here unfortunately, but to be fair, who thinks their gonna randomly get banned anyway?)

    Permanent Ban:

    The Infamous Tickets:
    So like any other player, as soon as I got banned I submitted a ticket, albeit I actually haven't sent many tickets before and this was my legit 3rd one ever so bear with me on my terrible etiquette. Note: I also said End of the World 1-3 in the ticket but I meant 1-5, I made a mistake in my state of panic oh well LOL. Also please excuse me from blacking out my real name, I would prefer if people didn't really know it. xD

    The First Ticket:

    So absolutely no disrespect towards GM Rosunnie, I understand that they don't have the authority to release such a ban, but of course I cant stand by and simply be banned for something I KNOW I didn't do. But alas, I sent another ticket because again I know I wasn't hacking or botting or using any other illicit programs. But I don't know how to prove I wasn't, I never thought I would have to.
    Anyway I send another ticket to support and ill just show it here:

    Second Ticket:

    Again no disrespect to GM Kyuyuiyui (and sorry for spelling their name wrong LOL), or Sr. GM Kryndax.

    And so here I am. Hoping to find some sort of hope to get myself unbanned because getting to rank 1 of a job in a world is hard enough, getting to rank 4 of a job in all of GMS is WAY HARDER.
    I am sure I got banned from the auto-ban system since I didn't see any evidence of a REAL GM Banning me but then again I have no idea how to tell a real GM has banned me, so i suspect the auto-ban system
    Once again no disrespect to ANY of the GM's i'm sure they did what they can with the information available. I'm just wondering what can i do from here if anything at all?

    My Rant (Potentially nonfactual but seriously I need to rant somewhere):
    I mean to my knowledge there is no hackers or botters around level 260 that I know of. Either they are smart enough not to bot at that level or Nexon actually snipes them pretty quick (With that said, I REALLY Hope more innocent players weren't banned like I was... Plus that statement doesn't really help my case but oh well). I have never been flagged or violated ToS, banned or suspended prior to this. So getting an instant permanent ban with no second chance just seems too harsh especially with my clean record which has been clean for almost 12 years now. I have people in Aurora that can vouch for me, but I don't know how valuable of proof that is.

    What can I do dude? I'm kinda desperate here. (I know kinda pathetic to be crying over a damn game, but its a game that has been near and dear to me for 12 years)

    I don't know. Just something or anything to help me would be nice, some people have told me to submit another ticket, others have told me to post here. Some told me to even post in Maple forums under bug reporting and some have told me to message CM Ghiblee (Though idk how that will help since Ghiblee is a community manager and doesn't really have a say in Ban Appeals) but honestly I'm kinda desperate. I wanna be Rank 2 Kaiser :( (Shout our to Snew for rank 1 tho still xD)

  • PIC not working after v202 update

    Perhaps resetting your PIC through the site will fix it?

    It appears to be an in game bug, that Multiple people are having. If I remember correctly resetting the PIC online still requires the input of a new PIC in game, and from what I have seen so far, the in game PIC system is what is wrong here. Perhaps I phrased my report wrong. When entering my PIC , as I try to change the letters (which is typically done by pressing the same button multiple times) instead of changing the letter being entered as it use to do prior to the patch, it just enters the same letter over again. (AT least that what it appears to be).
    For example, say i want the letter "b" so i would locate the "abc" button and press it twice, usually this would cause the letter to be entered to be "b" but now it simply and only displays "**" rather than briefly showing the letter "b". This leads me to believe that it entered "aa" disguised as "**" instead of what is actually supposed to be the letter "b"

    Hopefully this clarifies the bug a bit better.

  • Let's Bring Papulatus back.

    Well I mean he didnt go anywhere, but i feel like he deserves a revamp kinda like Zakum got.
    He was always a fun boss to go challenge back when he was an actual challenge but now he is a joke. It would be cool to give him a nice revamp and add him to the boss list as well. Make a good challenge out of him and definitely add different difficulty to him. I think one of the few oldest bosses in the game deserves this. :D
