I can't give out reps to Jester >  

I've been a bad boy in era myself. I got warned for deleting the tree file.  

A thread was made regarding his ban, and the evidence was requested. Thread got deleted (due to discussing ban on forums, I guess it is okay now since snk bringing it up again). Anyways, since you want both sides of the story, here is the "admin side" of the story, so to speak.


-----------------
There are 3 individuals involved: Duke, Coolaid, and Thunder.
Duke PM's me asking me to help his friend (Coolaid) do an account transfer. The account was pc:4542***
He wanted to transfer pc:4542*** to pc:6826*** . Both accounts had the IP Address: 173.117.**.***
Everything checked out, except for the chat history between Duke and Coolaid.

Here is the chat history for pc:4542***. Coolaid was on the account at this time during the transfer request. (Most recent PM on top):
Duke: dont come on if u go back on the whole hack can get u banned
Duke: get off for -15-30 mins
Duke: pro
Apprentice Blue DOMO DJ: Hey man
Duke: holdup
Duke: pm me when usent
Duke: cuz i am giving all friends free garlats lol
Duke: send it to my email Duke*******il.com <censored to protect personal email>
Duke: k do u have ur u-did?
Duke: u want meto do it?

Due to the suspicious chat log, Duke's IP address 70.7.87.21 was saved.

A few hours later, I received a PM from Thunder on pc:4542*** saying he was hacked. I thought this was weird, as it was suppose to be Coolaid's account, the account in which Duke wanted to help transfer earlier.
So the IP address 99.203.**.*** was logged, and this time it a different IP address than from earlier, indeed someone else was on the account.

A few minutes later, I received another PM from Thunder pc:4537*** saying he is on his brother's device, contacting me because someone keeps booting him off his account pc:4542***
He says the hacker is online on his account right now. So I check the IP address of the person on pc:4542*** and it turns out to be 70.7.87.21 which is the same IP address on Duke's account.

I tell Thunder that Duke is the one that is on his account. Thunder then tells me he gave his UDID information away to Duke, as Duke promised he would help him raise his spar rating.
I then asked him if he was aware that Duke was trying to transfer his account away to another account, ie stealing his account? He said he had no idea. Duke was suppose to only raise his spar rating.

So Duke got banned for hacking Thunder (his IP address was logged on Thunder's account). Duke says he is innocent, so then I asked him why his IP address appeared on Thunder's account pc:4542***, supposedly Coolaid's account
at the begining when he asked me to do the transfer for him. He then says Coolaid isn't his friend, but his brother. That they had the same IP address because they were brothers and they were on the same network.
I said, Okay. Then why was Coolaid's IP address 173.117.**.*** when he first asked me to transfer the account for him.
He said the reason was because his brother doesn't live with him, and at that time, they were at
diferent houses.
I said okay, then how did both you and your "brother" both have the same IP address 70.7.87.21 when Thunder was saying he got hacked?
He says they both went out to eat at Denny's, and they were both on the same WiFi.
I stopped there, since that was very unlikely, seeing as they would have been at Denny's for atleast 4 hours.
It would also be hard to explain how he kept on trying to logon under the IP address 70.7.87.21 for hours (our system echoes the login attempt everytime it kicks him off due to the IP ban).
The next few days, there were numerous repeated attempts to login under IP address 70.7.87.21. Clearly, it wasn't the Denny's public WiFi.
(May not have been Denny's, but the story was they were at a restaurant with public WiFi)

So what was next for Duke? He changes his IP address and logs on, so then Auron had him banned again for ban evasion. As you can see in the ban history below, he changed his IP numerous times after that.

Street your ughh a boss  

And there are the facts <3 street. As chaotic said, "everyone has an evil little brother when they get in trouble" haha  

haha  

The entire of Dukes account should be sent to the new guy who got hacked. He stole, got caught, he should lose everything imo.  

what a noob lool

sorry i rephrase that what a dumb genius who got clockt by the manager loool SHAME!  

Where does it show that I hacked multiple people and honestly I would make my bro do skype or somethen but that wouldn't solve much because then you would come up with another exscuse that he is lieng, but I honestly would make him face time or somethen. Also your missing alot of chat logs between me and blizzard from classic. So I am getting banned basically for saying im giving free gralats? Check other players chat logs you will find alot worse. All I did on his account was actually spar for him. Lastly his name is Blizzard not thunder and like I said i wouldn't hack a friend of mine. If i truly wanted I wouldn't have needed an account transfer to get it. So ya if I do endup having my bro facetime even u cannot believe it but thats basically all I can do  

I think I also missed the part that proves he hacked multiple people.  

/end of thread.  

Love how duke is trying to argue his way out of it. You've been caught, there's proof, they arent going to unban you or stop banning you no matter what you say. If you had just talked directly to Snk and asked for a second chance and admitted it then maybe he would have given you a second chance. But after what you've done? No way.  

Ban him for another year just for trying to ease his way out of the situation.  

This is so violating privacy, looking through chat,ip,ect. Although it was used for a good cause like catching "hackers"  

He can still hack thunder whenever he wants. He still has his UDID. Report his IP to the ISP and they would handle the charges and stuff like that.
