I grow tired of the exhaustive and baseless speculation so rampant in this thread. I tried on multiple occasions to keep this out of controversy and to speak with Loftar, to no avail. Here is the screenshot of Vigi purposefully locking out the Account in question, and by locking out, he parked the client at the Character selection screen for the sole purpose of insuring no one could raise the defense, as it's Vigi we're talking about here...historically spineless cowards and brave warriors hardly ever go hand in hand as a sole individual. What kind of moron leaves scents out, has an undefended leanto, couldn't fight his way out of a bucket, is outnumbered 2 to 1, and begins making threats?
A very scared and heavily medicated sociopath, willing to drop to any low to save his skin.
March 3rd, 2014 21:18 -6 (9:18PM CST), Vigilance locked Realak's account, knowingly and intentionally causing a Denial of Service to the game, for the sole purposes of ensuring the following game mechanics did not occur after making various threats:
The Combat Mechanics
The Knocked Out state
The Private claiming of his leanto
The destruction of his leanto
His force summoning
Permanent death
This is perhaps one for legal teams or even the developers to debate themselves, but on the base values of it all, a denial of service in any fashion, when done knowingly and intentionally, is no different than any of it's other forms and its fruits, be they: changing passwords and/or emails, et cetera. I partake in the development of a separate game title personally, and after some debate we arrived at the same conclusion, this behavior is a Denial of Service, and will get you banned permanently. However, Jorb, and Loftar are free to decide for themselves the merits here with their title however they like.

Loftar, if you would like to speak with me to hear my side, request my IP's, ISP, or anything else as to the facts involved, please send a PM.
With Regards,
Shill the Thief
