quite recently many people who are deemed "high stakers" have been banned for irl trading...many have been officially guilty of it...however, MANY have been banned simply b/c jagex isn't taking any chances anymore

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

list that i know are innocent:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

hobowange

 

 

 

diva

 

 

 

part

 

 

 

sage

 

 

 

fubupowr

 

 

 

i own chue

 

 

 

pkyabigtime

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i'm sure there are more that are innocent...but it seems that to stop rl trading they are banning any1 who wins obscene amounts of cash

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i was banned on Ovul4ting I-Io (I-I= an "h") b/c i received a 100M loan to stake with from dark elf after i got cleaned...but they banned me for bug abuse because he bug abused the money

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

discuss? and i broke no rules...i shortened those names or misspelled other ones

I say jagex is just doing their job.

that is just some random lyrics with 2-4 words changed.

Yah, but some are rl traders. Your d4rk fello is one. Also, some can be connected if a rl trader stakes them, and so on.

yeah i know dark is one...but he was banned for bug abuse :\. he gave me a 100M loan via a stake and then i got banned for it 2 months later...for bug abusing

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

that's what i'm saying...they're making the wrong connections just because a rl trader stakes them

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and drag...a loop hole is a loop hole

Ohh I see. Remember loans are cool unless they come from a staker, or a rl trader. :wink:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyhow, Jagex may be going too far, or maybe its deeper than we know? :|

So far I see no "drag" in this topic. Who do you mean with "drag" if you meant me you should've said:dragondan ro or dragondan since there is many with "drag" in their name.

i figured they would have banned you for your name...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ovulating [garden tool]? Doesnt seem appropriate.

Obviously, a great amount of people banned for real-life trading will deny it. I'm betting most of the people on that list really did real-life trade.

lol...agreed. i thought i'd get banned sooner or later for the name...but i asked mod mark one time what he thought of it and he just said "Lol!"...then i went on my way :\

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

remember when i made my pure diary in july-august?

I started thinking that winning alot of high lvl stakes is now bannable. HIGH lvl stakers that have been banned:

 

 

 

Cursed you

 

 

 

Iodio

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And many other that I cant remeber right now. Seems like Phat stakers are getting banned the most. So ya, they're kinda going far :ohnoes:

my freind was telling me about this as he knows that fubpower guy and he also said fubpower was innocent

cursed irl traded...i dunno about iodio

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but cursed is definitely guilty...that's why i didn't put him up there

And how many guilty people go unbanned?

haha..another good point

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

way too many :?

I say jagex is just doing their job.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What the hell? Thats the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I'm planning on getting a couple party hat sets and 20 or so mask sets befroe I quit. So, Jagex will be doing their job if they ban an innocent person? Please, put some intelligence in your posts.

It's fine line they're walking...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For instance, I frequently go Dagannoth King hunting with my mates. Whatever we get, we sell then split the winnings.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Depending on how long it takes to sell the items, we may not give each others shares for maybe an hour up to a few days from the hunt itself.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From Jagex point of view, I'm giving someone 2m cash for nothing or vice-versa. I know this must raise a flag on their system.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I just hope that they investigate if first, rather than ban first, then investigate later.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I know others will do similar stuff with the KQ for example...

Gosh, that makes me scared to be owed/owe 1M+ with someone. :ohnoes: I hope Jagex is being careful with these cases...

I've borrowed all sorts of things, some very expensive, from my brother and closer friends and have never gotten in trouble. Jagex has already said they understand people borrow/give away items and said they do not ban lightly.

but here's what you hafta consider. Jagex has said before many times that they monitor trades, and when a large amount of money is traded, they ban people. It's impossible to tell whether it's a real life trading scam or not, and i think you have to consider that.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I do believe banning obsenely rich people is bad, but banning them when they trade obcene amounts of money for nothing to someone, that's where you have to be careful. They've given fair warning too.

Jagex has said before that looking for unbalanced trades is not their way of detecting real life traders. Many people give/receive loans and are not banned.

true...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

anyway, it's very hard to beleive certain cases, and getting banned for staking a RWITer makes sense. you posess the money they obtained illegally if you win.

I certainly don't know for sure, but one has to logically assume that Jagex eventually finds out who real life gp-sellers are, and from there, it's probably pretty easy to determine the whole network of resource-gatherers and gp-buyers connected to those folks. They then likely expand that network further and further outward.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

They only way someone is going to be unfairly punished is if they were associates of those RL traders, who received a large cash gift/loan from the rule-breakers after they received their ill-gotten gains.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From Jagex's perspective, those receiving funds from cheaters were probably cheaters as well. They have no way to know otherwise.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The number of "honest" folks caught up in such a web has to be insanely small. So as far as Jagex is concerned, in order to stomp out RL trading, they'll have to accept a tiny number of "honest" players caught up in the dragnet.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lesson: don't accept huge gifts or loans from folks.

Hmmm i wonder what jagex thinks alot of money is to lend somone. I lend people money alot of the time. Nothing more than 1m but they may have a very low expectation on how much money is alot. :ohnoes:
