Sooooo i got unbanned

 

I think your problem may have been posting 200 stacks of ore lol. I make sure not to post more than 15 stacks of anything at a time. Anyways congrats on getting your account unbanned, but for future reference watch how many auctions you are posting at once. No human in their right mind will actually farm that amount of ore, so it definitely rises suspicion. Best of luck!

 

thanks yeah im taking precautions now haha
