It has done me a world of good. I tried for 2 years to get banned. Now that I am banned, I'm going back to school, I actually have a gym membership I use, and, I have a social life other than those 3 Canadians and 2 Californians from UmbraPulsum on Quetzalcoatl.
Being banned is worth it. I do miss the game though.
If you weren't already aware, there's been a new facebook group specifically for people from Quetz. I'm talking like, super old players I haven't heard from in ten years too lol. 758+ people in about a week's time. I'll post the link here, but if it gets deleted for some reason just PM me and I'll send it to you.
If you were "trying" to get banned there would be others in your ss, but i imagine you only do it when youre invisible to get where youre wanting to go and obviously no one around.
