Like my grandma used to say "if you gonna do something, do it good"

if you get caught go enjoy your break and go back to enjoy your dupped items

I didn't post anything on any AH
I didn't dupe thousands of items or even hundreds
I didn't dupe after the splash screen
I am VIP
I spend a crapload of real money on TP and expansions and such
14 day vacation

Honestly I think they are picking names out of a hat. I seen people linking stacks of thousands of dragon scales and imperial bloods not get touched and some that did no duping have to fight to get unsuspended and only getting 100TP as an apology for their illegitimate ban.

It sounds like you did dupe, and traded them around, maybe to alts?
Maybe the items you duped triggered a flag?
Or are you saying you received an illegitimate ban and will be appealing for the 100 TP (which is the first I've heard of this being offered)

Your case is the first I am hearing of a ban on someone who did things as you claim. When did you get the ban?

You'll be nekkid in Korthos

for those banned, did you get an email saying for how long is the ban? anyone permabanned yet?

It's not like any action of Turbine's can earn any respect from either the dupers or the innocent at this point.

They can't communicate worth a damn. WTF does "with extreme prejudice" even mean? Sure, she probably thinks it sounds cool, and imagines herself as the Clint Eastwood or Arnold Schwarzenegger of DDO, but it's laughable. Learn to own your mistakes, Turbine, and clearly outline how you will respond if you want to try and earn back even a sliver of respect.

Every duper took a calculated risk, and most don't really care if they lose the items. Many don't even care about the accounts that did the duping. They already rolled the dice, and are just waiting for them to stop tumbling. Nobody will be butthurt about losing a stack of dupes, but if even one prayer bead gets deleted by mistake from an innocent person, Turbine creates a new problem for themselves. They can't afford another Maban, but it is going to happen, because they suck at their jobs.

The only way they're going to be able to clean out that many inventories is with some scripting. We all know how well their scripts work, and there is a universal lack of faith in Turbine's competence in this area.

This is going to be hella fun to watch over the next few weeks, as Turbine creates a bunch of lose-lose scenarios for themselves, and destroys a bunch of their remaining goodwill. They don't just settle for shooting themselves in the foot. Turbine uses a repeating crossbow.

My guess here is that they may take more than what you duped.  For example you duped a stack of red scales all red scales, and dragon armors are gone.  Even if some of them were legit before you duped.

Hell it could simply mean you login and find every bag everywhere empty of everything.  No stacks of anything at all.

Hard to say, but in a couple of weeks I am sure we will find out.  Can't wait for the wailing to begin then!

Like I said before if there are no repercussions for those who duped other than a vacation then screw that I am duping my balls off next time.  Now if there are repercussions, well in all honesty that isn't to be unexpected.

You can't, they only come in stacks of 2
