Something I've always been wondering (account bans)

[Whispers]

I like the appeal instance clause, but what about years-old accounts???If someone wants to use the name Gambit (let's say you're making an X-mean guild, I dunno) they can't because there was a guy on here under the name who exploited a leveling scheme involving the training grounds and was consequently perma-banned.

The same applies for a load of names from the list that are good names; Buddha, Chewbacca, HealingMist, Watcher, Nova, Shadow, Domingo, Super Nova, Sakura, Zelda, Linda, Tifa, Antonio, etc. etc. etc..??The list goes on forever with very good names that no one can use now because someone was too lazy to level and/or lacked the foresight to see their actions as ignoble.

All of these were banned in early April of 2006.??I'm pretty sure the statute of limitations on appeals is far beyond expired.??=p

If you're wondering what incident I'm writing of, see here.??
