I noticed that most of the servers have gone back to Normal status. Some even fell back to Light. I'm guessing its mass bannings this time around. I wonder how many got axed?
On Gustin, I heard of at least 15 members of a raid boss farmer clan being gone for good... and those were farming in the 60s, so that hurts. I would also guess, that NCsoft did again ban the whole organisation, which would include the moneyholders and the sellers, not only the gatherers.
Taking into account, that what we see and hear is only ever the visible part of the iceberg, I would guess, that there were a couple hundred accounts banned in this run.
But still with these signs some lunatics will claim, that NCsoft were in league with those guys and were not banning them. Some people will never have enough proof.
To me such signs are absolutely enough proof. I see no reason to post numbers on the news like World of Smurfcraft is doing.

thats the second time i heard that
how do you guys know they were banned?
i remember rumors of DK being banned before, but all they done was move their plvling to GC
I only speculate. I only noticed this because before almost ALL the server except 1 were Heavy. Now almost all are Normal. Something MUST have happened to caused that?
Oh another peculiar thing, usually when I see farmer raids, they dont care who watches. They just do their thing and go. Yesterday, I saw a group gathering and when they saw me they all forced logged. lol. All of them just poof. Somethings got them all jittery for sure.
A farmer clan on Teon got banned too, they're big booming their groups back already tho :/
And how do we know? When the farmers disappear from the game and the few that were left behind say that they're gone... and seeing them big boom new groups ^^
Tuesday is usually pretty slack. The maintenance kinda throws them off track. See what the servers are like today for a better idea.
Btw, I am suffering lag on Sieg so I have been whiling away my time on Teon. I went to DE Village. BIG MISTAKE!!!!
You cannot move in most of the quest areas (fungus, Marsh Zombies and Spiders) for male dwarves in Bronze with Buzdys. I have NEVER seen anything like it. At one stage there were 5 different "players" running for one Marsh Zombie.
I pity anyone trying to make some money out of those quests, especially as they are the better money-making ones as well.

.... and all with such wonderful names like 'gkjiufkufd', 'gfvu8fkcizdf' or 'bbcufjachdf' :)
The raid bosses are sending valentines cards around, as they feel lonely. That's how I found out.
O snap
hope the major alliances take advantage while they can
still seeing alot of them at the gate keepers but hopefully it takes a while before we see the zerg again
