The policy is obviously not just focused on you.
Its not a witch hunt, other sites have suffered
the same, for the same transgressions. My site
has been banned for almost two years, and in those
two years, playing only with the permission via
email, we, to the best of my knowledge, have not
cheated, or otherwise take advantage of the work
that has been done on Carrion Fields. However
the frequency with which the cheating occured by
me and my friends, back in the day, quite honestly
is staggering. Thus even though we have had
it beat into us, I still respect the ban. After
the ban, and due to our separations in real life,
most all of us have had to learn to play within
the spirit of the rules of Carrion Fields. As a
result, I and at least one other that i know of,
have greatly increased our capacity for roleplaying,
self sufficiency and respect for the work of the
Immortals. Unfortunately there is one glaring
exception that I will gladly and publicly appologize
for, regarding a former Emperor, and an irresponsible
post on this forum. I guess what i'm trying to get
at is that it most likely takes a like amount of time
playing well, and contributing as well, to make up
for years or even months of blatant errors in judgement.
And if it is such a problem and heavy burden on you,
and you truely feel that you are reformed of your
past irresponsibilities, then I would honestly
suggest perchasing a new ISP, and proving it to the
Immortals that way. Its hard and certainly not fair,
but as stated above, the mess is of my, or your own
making.
