    Angry Banned for a Non-Existent Bot?

    What's worse is that the admins aren't answering my tickets, so I have no freaking clue how they came to the conclusion I have a bot. (Short of someone on here tattling on me for buying items and treasure...which no one will ever confess to!)

    Has anyone had this happen? Did you get your account restored? I'd buy the treasure and things I need to start over again, but I don't know if I feel safe anymore.

    I hope the FR team has more sense than TNT. Do they have a FB or anything you could message them on?

    Everyone's getting hit hard with bot bans. Even if you ran a harmless script you'd get hit right now.

    I got banned for using adblocker before tbh

    @(you need an account to see links) Yeah, there's a Facebook...but how do I say, "Why aren't you responding to my tickets?" in a polite manner? (Saying exactly what I just said sounds a tad rude.)

    @(you need an account to see links) An adblocker is seriously all I'm running--ABP, just as I've used for my entire FR life. After being banned for multiaccounting, I know it's too hard to fool the FR admins--TNT they are not.

    @(you need an account to see links) Why aren't they responding, though? I tried to fib my way out of my multiaccounting bans and they responded to those both times. Now when I didn't do a g**d**n thing, they're not responding? What the hell?!

    Your mentions didn't work, probably because they were touching your [FONT][/FONT] tags, but I'd say "Hi there, I was wrongfully banned for supposedly using a bot and my ticket hasn't been handled yet. Could you please check out ticket ####?"

    My group of friends mostly. And no, we didn't share IPs, or even send things to eachother's accounts.

    I agree with you on them being incompetent tumblrinas, but I think someone's been salt reporting random people lately.

    @(you need an account to see links) Yup. (Note to self: if you want to ping, leave out the fontage.) I will copypasta that into a message post-haste!

    I'm wondering about the two new people I did business with. (I also need to check the email address I'm using on here, because I'm not getting notifications.)


    ---

    Oops...no option to message them, and it's too long for twitter. (And I don't know how to message them on tumblr because I almost never use it.)

    The FR team has a tendency to completely ignore its userbase when it comes to these things (ex. the great coli banning of 2014/other instances, not a single account's been restored even it if was unfairly frozen), so in a sense they're worse than Neopets. Don't know why they're not answering, they never answer my tickets either. Even if every single person banned was legitimately cheating, for all we know there were a handful of people unfairly frozen and FR staff is just terrible at handling bans.
