Request to speak to the Senior Game Master

[Rawrrior]

I have to say honestly that I don't think anything can be done for that character. The guy could buy a new ffxiv copy and make a new toon. Sucks to start fresh, but even you admit he did what he did. While it was definitely nice of him to follow orders, those orders were done to investigate (innocent people would have had to obey those orders too). And it turned out he was guilty. I don't think SE is going to start unbanning people unless they are desperate for subscriptions.

What they could do to his character is simply purge it of all gil, same as they did by dividing anyone's gil who was caught in the blanket banning by 10.. He's though about buying a new copy, but with how he's being treated, and how his account had the pre-order bonuses, as well as collector's edition bonuses, and how much time he spent on Mister Sirs, it's very very hard to. And yes, we both admitted to his hacking, we have nothing to hide about it. SE knows when he did, and how he did it. Emails went back and forth while playing off and on explaining to them step by step on how he did it. Few days after the confrontation in the screenshots, that wild random patch SE pushed out during those high traffic login queues ( ya'll know what i'm talking about ) and fixed the problem.

Square Enix HAS been slowly unbanning those who were caught in the blanket. Why can't he be to? That was the reason he was banned in the first place, not cause of him hacking :/ Cause if that was the case, then why wasn't he banned after meeting Jhanaka?..

I really admire you for sticking your neck out for a buddy! I wish you luck and a Merry Christmas to you both!

I't shouldn't matter where you post this but tech.support seems right!

You buddy might have to start over on a new character... or new account? (not sure, take it with a grain of salt)

There could be corrupted data linked to you friends character and it all needs to be purged, so starting over with a new account only seems like the correct path.

Hey! A very Merry Christmas to you to!

He's a very close friend to me. And since i know that how this is being handled isn't right, i will surly risk my account for him, and any close friend of mine. If he did hack without going through SE, i wouldn't be trying to help him get his account unbanned. Yes, hacking is wrong, but he reported it to Square Enix. All of which was done with good intentions. He never traded me mass amounts of gil, and Square Enix can go ahead and check the logs on my account. Most he ever gave me was like 300 gil to afford transportation >__<! And the money wasn't from the hacked pool, it was money he made from selling what he made from Weaver and Blacksmithing on the market.

I don't think his character is corrupted or anything i mean, they didn't state to him anything about such things.

We just want his account unbanned.. Why can't they just unban his account, and just purge all the gil off of it?.. We made Mrs Madam and Mister Sirs together in beta, don't want to delete them or anything.. I mean, it's our first characters :/

A new account might be the last thing we resort to.. But as long as there might be some small hope, we will keep trying! We won't give up.. So Square Enix please.. We are dedicated, and we won't go away so long as this game exsists! It's nothing like the other MMOs out there :/ Won't loose hope!
