Excuse me?
You included yourself in the people who are tempbanned lmao
Being completely honest this is like an abhorrent idea but if you want to have like a more practical and more reasonable version of this idea then just make bans be like normal and just have the rock pushing be optional if you want to like be unbanned faster. Like that way people who get temporarily banned can either wait out like a week or push the rock to get unbanned earlier; doing it this way is like cruel and usual and doesn’t really accomplish anything other than making players fear that they’ll get false banned (like picking up too many chests while being laggy or something or maybe that got fixed idk).

Okay, yeah, I made a grammatical mistake there–but I assure you I am no rulebreaker. My record’s clean.
that’s what they all say, to the mountain with you
Those bans werent false btw, you have to trigger 50+ chests or pretty much a lot at the same time which can be detected by the “logs” that the mods dont want to show 
. If you want to confirm it yourself, you can limit your internet’s bandwidth and try opening a closely packed chest in an alt then you’ll see it wont trigger the anticheat.
Even in cases of false bans, events like these would be widespread such is the most recent being the darksea teleport anticheat that roblox messed up in their update. So far no more new cases occured despite the game staying up for almost a year with around 1K+ players.
I can assure you that they have nothing to worry about as someone who has played the game a lot and tested a lot of things. For proof:
Just play the game normally and you’ll be all good
Those player kills are too high, consider lowering it
I guess that makes sense but like even then someone’s short ban shouldn’t get like extended because someone wanted them to be tortured. Also like imagine the negative press, if the large exploiting community finds out that you’d like get tortured for cheating then it’s going to like make them see it as a taunt of sorts kinda. Basically people would be making a bajillion alts for the express purpose of getting banned, which like increases the amount of exploiters by like an unreasonable amount. It’s like a kid who bullies other kids and see’s something that makes one kid in specific have like a dramatic reaction, and they’ll like go and bully that kid even more.
That like might not have made sense but to summarize: Exploiters see crazy ban condition, they exploit more because they think the AO community like hates exploiters (They’d probably be right) just so they can make more people mad.
So yeah this would have an adverse effect of people who will troll and exploit cuz they think AO players are soft (which they might be right about again, you should see each time somebody kills a random low level lol).
Exploiters are perm banned, the condition to get tempbanned doesnt require modifying game codes.
Adverse effects is only a possibility considering there are games in the past that also mocks hackers but didn’t really get a huge amount of hackers flooding in for doing so. We’ll only know if vetex adds a feature similar to this 
At the start I’m referring to those that got banned for minor offenses.
If only we could have the ban timer and the rock pushing at the same time.
lazy people can just wait it out
tryhards can speedrun their way
maybe there could be a timer inside the punishment server.
Oh, then it still stands ngl, I cant really speak about conjectures anymore since I realized what I predicted in the past is only a possibility and not confirmation. We’ll only see what it would do if something like this is implemented for non-exploiters.
i love this idea but itd really do nothing other than make unbanned players want to play the game less
They already waited out their ban why is it necessary to punish them more
the whole “temp bans are a vacation” thing is kinda silly too, if you get banned from AO and consider it a vacation then you probably dont like the game very much (in which case dont make yourself play it)
That’s because it isnt the game they like, it’s ruining the experience of other people ngl, but yeah fair enough
Maybe non-exploiters could wait or push the rock, and then the actual exploiters just outright get banned. That could be an nice compromise if this was added.
Therein lies the lenient punishment that no one would take seriously for those who are trying to break rules without getting perm banned.
You could argue they could make an alt but they’ll also have to waste 3+ hours levelling it up just to get back on the mountains once again, wasting even more of their time. Ultimately discourages them unless said tempbanned player has a lot of time in his hands.
It’s even an understatement to call them players considering a normal player isn’t someone who willingly breaks rules within the boundary that isn’t permanent.
But I mean repeat offenders of minor rules can just like get perma’d, and the people who get banned like once might not ever come back to the game; getting banned is getting banned and I really don’t think that we’d need to like make it anymore harsher than it already is.
And like going back to the exploiter thing, I’d also like to mention that since the internet is like anonymous there will be hordes of people petty and spiteful enough to go like hack AO or something, I remember Lizard squad hacked PSN a while ago on Christmas and there’s also the people botting TF2. There will like certainly be people who will go ruin it for everyone by turning it into Titanfall 1 (unplayable because of DDOS’s maybe that got fixed idk)

Tempban cases in the majority are done on main accounts, and majority of the players are playing on their main account. This is to discourage them.
Yeah here’s the problem, the punishment isn’t serious like literally. An example being Legendarex, he first got banned for macrofishing after 4K+ hours. The second being on his alt to which he still macrofished eventually making him on his last strike before getting permbanned.
Now imagine, 4K+ hours with 55K+ fish caught, they aren’t taking it serious because guess what, waiting out their bantime isn’t something that would stop them. People like him only knows how to wait out everything, forcing them to engage in torture is only deserved.
Who knows if he’s using an alt again, but considering he can run 2 roblox clients at the same time while his main account afks in the dark sea, I’ll leave it up for you to decide.
Also which is it really, you’re talking about both exploiters and non-exploiters at the same time
if the goal is harshness and unfairness. then this idea is still impractical as fuck. You might as well permaban people for breaching the rule of impersonating staff (light offense) to everything in moderate offenses.
