Brilliant idea.  Shame I've made a promise to myself never to give turbine a dime of my money again.

I doubt that Turbine is checking the inv of a player who is sending a ticket to report someone else. I mean... why would they? Trying to get all players banned who either send or cause tickets is as bad as banning all exploiters/dupers now.

Usually GMs don't have enough time to waste it for such tasks anyways.

Why you are playing the game then? If it is so bad that you don't want to support it then go play pokemon instead.

Some players are being somewhat protected by Turbine for different reasons. If you report them, you will most likely get ignored, or get your inventory scanned so you'll risk a ban yourself.

It sounds silly but I know two of these players in Thelanis, they just won't get banned no matter what they do.

Seconded.

So Turdbine emps create accounts to grief players, try to have raids fail and piss off the base?  Okay...no.

You are quite right Drop, I suppose I still a bit miffed about the whole hot mess, but that is no excuse so I am sorry.

I should have been more careful and just spoke to my own experience of Melicat and not implied that everyone on the PC was terrible.

Although I do feel that it is quite likely that they would all be extended the protection that Melicat was, I only know of it being done for her for certain.

Some of the PC are very active, knowledgeable and prolific, it would be very ironic indeed if the type of protection afforded Melicat wasn't given to those really decent members as well wouldn't it?

Meli doesn't dupe or exploit, despite ample opportunity to do so.

That was not the case for me, I didn't accuse Melicat of duping.

Instead, Melicat was cross with me for opinions about her posts and public stances I shared in a thread, I attempted to smooth over our disagreement via PMs, she insisted that I tell her who I was in game before she would discuss anything in PMs. I provided her with name and server of the character I had played with her. 

Within minutes she sent be some very cruel and abusive PMs, and proceeded to bully me. In the end at her insistence I wiped all the comments I had posted that she was upset with.

But even after I did that wasn't enough for her, she demanded more, that I to post that everything I had said was a lie and that I was making it all up, only at this point did I refuse, and finally try to stand my ground.

At this point Melicat posted this:

To their credit one of the other PC members criticized Melicat for it, but she just responded with:

Within the hour my account was banned for 14 days for breaking the code of conduct, and just a few hours after that my little brother who uses the same credit card and router was banned as well.

Afterward the same day I PM'd some other vaulties (who can back me up) about my troubles and they advised me to steer clear of Melicat and her friends as they were protected. Which after we came back I have done, going nowhere near any of them and starting characters of a different server. 

And though I would rather not be under Melicat's crosshairs or any of her friends that still are on the Vault I thought my experience was relevant to what was being discussed on this thread.   

This just sounds like butthurt bullshit to me.

Even with supposed "vaulties to back you up" it is too easy to make a socky that can defend you.

This was the post I loved from that thread.  Should be saved for posterity.
