Dear Stratics,

[Kula]

This is actually a serious request. I think you need to make a new forum called "Wrongly Banned" so that we can get a clear idea of all of the players banned by UO's "super awesome ban everyone in sight" event.

I personally would like to see this, but really I think the UO devs who actually view this forum need to take a look at what they've done. I get the feeling that they merely went a bit crazy with the bans; and given that UO's customer service is god awful I am guessing they wont bother to review any of them. The damage seems to already have been done, and instead of investigating prior to banning players, it appears as if they went and banned players and figured they would clean up the mess after.

Whatever happens, I must say that what has happened this past week has completely turned me off of UO, and I doubt I'll renew my account. As much as I've invested in this game, I am not going to tolerate paying money to be apart of what this game has become.

I disagree with you......those that got banned were investigated.
Assumptions and opinions don't justify having a whiners corner, there's spiels and rants for that.

Anyone who has half a brain, and is truely indeed innocent, first off, wouldn't come posting on stratics expecting results. One handles matters in a mature, rational, and logical way.

EA is not a police state, it's a corporation that distributes "games" A "game" that has become a hobby for alot, and saddly, a way of life for others.

If a handful of players want to quit, so be it, UO won't sink.....conspiracey theories won't make it go away either.

We have one confirmed on Legends who explained to her guildies at a guild meeting that "Duping is happening, don't be tempted or you could get banned." She was banned for "Telling her guildies about a dupe." The guild house was deleted and her account was banned... It's BS, and I understand where Kula is coming from. EA will never get another dime from me. I have my accounts paid up for 1 year, and I'll just ride the wave until it crashes. I'm happy the dupers were banned, but the way it was handled was wrong and just completely unprofessional.

While I understand where you're coming from, the Stratics forums are not the place for players to seek recourse or plead innocence. An EA/Mythic employee has already stated that due to their privacy policy, they would not be discussing any account info publicly. There have been an incredible number of posts and threads in this vein in which Jeremy has replied.

They are aware of the current situation regarding the public outcry over the bannings.
