XxSamdamanxX's Ban Appeal

Y

ytiggidmas

IGN: XxSamdamanxX
Banned by: Alator
Time of ban: 7:10 PM 1/2/2013
Reason for ban: "Exploiting a bug -Firing plaguebombs, a projectile skill, through iron gates."
Your story: I was using my plaguebombs during a raid on Braavos to kill several members inside of a building. One of the ways I was able to shoot plaguebombs at them was through the 1x1 walls of the building. I never thought shooting plaguebombs through walls was a bug, as the skill seems to be able do it by design. Multiple beguilers have done this throughout the map, and this does not seem like a bug.
Also, iron bars are NOT the only blocks that plaguebombs can be shot through, plaguebombs can be shot through nearly all blocks that are 1x1. What I did seems to be by design, and not a bug, I do not believe I should be banned for this.
EDIT: being banned is rather depressing, a response would be delightful.
Kainzo your thoughts on this would be much appreciated.

I' m sorry that I got to bed at 10:30PM and had to get up at 3AM and wasn't able to immediately respond to you.

I logged on earlier to test this, because I take all bans seriously, contrary to what you seem to think on the 'unwritten rules' thread. (If this sounds curt, it's because it is, as I only got 4 hours of sleep last night). The sheep bounces off of walls. The sheep also bounces off the iron gates if you are not shoved up against them. The sheep goes through the thin blocks because it seems to spawn slightly in front of the player as opposed to the same block as them. This skill is not a PBAoE, which we ignore about going through walls because having those skills do block-checks would take an immense amount of server resources.

This exploit is similar to the blink/enderpearl exploit through thin objects, which we also banned for. Unless I hear otherwise, it stands.
