Legacy Punishment, expiring blackmarks?

Featured Replies

Does anyone know the exact definition of Jagex's "Legacy Punishment?"

 

 

 

I think it means that your offense goes away after a certain period of time. If this is true, then would I be unmuted eventually? I have 12.5/10 Blackmarks but am still able to play because of the fact some expired...

Never heard of the legacy punishment. And I was pretty sure that jagex don't remove black marks and stuff.

Legacy punishment means you comitted the offence before their 'new' offence system. (june 2006) It won't go away, also not appealable.

Go to appeal an offence/ban on the runescape homepage.

Until proven wrong, "Number of the Beast" by Iron Maiden is the awesomest song known to man.

This is from my VERY old account i nvr play anymore:

Is this what your talking about?

 

 

 

It's no appealable. But black marks will go away after a year or 2 i think.

It was like september 2006 and I got muted for 3 days. The offence page said the rule was broken before July 2006. There was no evidence and I couldn't appeal it -.- I was like wtf?? :wall:

 

 

 

Uhh so yeah, bit OT but I thought I'ld tell my story...

 

 

 

It'll be interesting to see if the black marks do disappear.

There are currently 0 blackmarks out of 10 on this account

blackmarks do expire.

 

 

 

my friend used to scam on his level 90, and got 17 blackmarks.

 

 

 

a couple days ago, he checked it after not looking at it for 2 years +. and it logged in and wasnt banned anymore.

Eh... that makes a ban sound like it is only temporary? :-s

Not true, I've never had a blackmark. My first account was made for me by my cousin when I was in like 6th grade I think. I was...11? Anyways, that account never had a blackmark on it and Vulxai doesn't have any blackmarks on it.

I have had my account for 5-6 years and never received a black mark. This whole "Legacy Punishment" system is really beyond my understanding. If they have No evidence then you shouldn't retain any Black Marks or bans. You are innocent until proven guilty.

My old main got a perm mute 10.1black marks outta 10 : (

 

But if it does expire, the only thing I would use that account for would be to have fun doing nooby things.

Gee, Exp_All, if I were you, I would whip out your account again for its' original operations, and get back to them, if and when the black marks expire. Get in touch with old friends and whatnot from there. And make up lost time for all those nice exp goal lines. ::'

What's to not understand?

 

 

 

They changed their system to retain the evidence.

 

Legacy just means that the offense happened before they started keeping better records.

 

 

 

.If they have No evidence...

 

Thay had the evidence...

 

 

 

...then you shouldn't retain any Black Marks or bans.

 

... but they just didn't keep it.

 

 

 

You are innocent until proven guilty.

 

The player was assumed innocent until the mod saw the evidence.

 

 

 

Now, presumably, the old Jagex mods did act in a proper manner.

 

But for these old black marks Jagex has to decide

 

"Do we trust our paid Mods or do we trust this unknown player?"

Eh... that makes a ban sound like it is only temporary? :-s

2yrs is Temp? :?

I've also got 1 black mark on my main,...

 

 

 

 

 

Made me feel bad :(

 

 

 

No idea why i have it though....

 

 

 

Now i play on my noob :\

Never heard of Legacy Punishment, but it's been confirmed by numerous people that blackmarks WILL dissipate over the course of several years. But if you're already perm banned/account locked then it doesn't matter.

 

 

 

So if you've got 2 blackmarks, and you behave perfectly for a few years they'll be down to 1, .5, or 0 bms or so.

There is no meaning or truth in life but that which we create for ourselves.
