	It was such an obvious trap that only a complete retard could have fallen for it So how did so many�vaulties fall for it?

	Why is it an obvious trap?� Thing's been around forever.� There's always some point when it gets spread though, and then the critical mass of retards standing around and blinking back and forth gets noticed. Fran's gonna have to do doubletime stalking guildies around the servers though.� �

	Let me preface by saying that I never got around to trying it (I didn't get a saga finished in time), so I'm probably not banned, but even if it were an obvious trap I'd have still done it. One week for a few past lives and possibly some guild levels that I didn't have to grind? I would make that trade any day of the week and twice on Sundays.

I am sure that was not the case as I have had a few guildies banned since yesterday The one guy has not done it in over 3 weeks and he was still banned I am thinking more of snitched then SSG figuring out a code to use.

It was a joke. It was supposed to be mildy amusing. Agreed on the snitching part, though; time to give some people stitches.

	I tried to login in and blow through some racial lives, but I just couldn't bring myself to open up the launcher. Hovered over the icon for a second or two though. Kudos to anyone that received several weeks/months of grinding! You deserve your one week vacation. Enjoy!

	People be stupid when they get greedy. Remember when we were recycling xp stones and ottos stones? You had to be at a bank to do it. So there are banks on a guild ship (not public or visible), there's the bank in house K (few people there, 6 locations, can get a little privacy), a bank in the crafting halls (nobody uses the crafting halls anyway), and a bank in the Harbor (right out in the open, everyone can see it, high traffic area). Guess which bank had a crowd of people around it with the flashy "you just got a level" burst of light going off every 3 seconds?

	I figured since they didn't catch me re-using stones and TR timers 50 times in a row, they wouldn't figure this out. Good for them though. It only took one email from me to get re-instated though. I see an awful lot of names I've never seen before so alternative accounts are still letting people get their fix.

I think the way you talked them in to over-turning the ban qualifies as an exploit by itself
