I know a few people who did that with FFXI, and one especially who did that ALL the time in WoW (he used to bot for Gold, and sell gold to friends).
But I think it's a different issue. People using that silly trick were using the "rollback" function, which is something completely different from the one time one item restoral ticket.
The one time ticket isn't used to rollback or restore your character or multiple things, it's used exclusively on a single item and you don't need to give a specific reason, you just say you had Item X and lost it/trashed it, period.

Would Kainstryder or any of the people who still have the GM manual be able to send me a copy? I'd like it purely to read out of the interest of FFXI history

I know someone who did something similar to this. He played for several years, and geared up his character to top level during ToAU era, and sold his account to a person/website for a good deal of cash. Waited a few months, called SE and said he was hacked, and started playing again for a few months, and repeated the process. He did this several times.

PM'd you.

So apparently Square hires employees that must remain secret service level status and hide their Batman identities to the public?
I sure as hell didn't read in the manual "if you disclose you are a GM to anyone, we will find you. Please look forward to it."

The thing is, you can tell who you are and what you do, but you have to remain somewhat smart about it. I've met so many players when they called that I wish I could have told about who was behind (either people from my server/LS or people that were just really nice) but I couldn't. If I had done that, then my credibility as an impartial GM would have been stained.
In fact, I did suspend/permaban several people I knew/was friend with. I also prevented several bans whenever it was possible, but as a general rule I never turned a blind eye.

Yeah Senkyuu, the girl I'm talking about was an Asuran player, we were in LS together. She was american and contacted an US GM.
Don't know exactely how the issue escalated, but I can say for certain she wasn't lying, I knew her before and after the name/face change, and her character/gear/macro/stuff/achievements were exactely the same.

There are a lot of things that can't be done (not just by a GM, but technically, too), if it was done it was definitely approved by a LGM and most likely Japan. So it requires a rather highly ranked person.

if i remember correctly the issue with the restores were people faking that they got hacked and moving their stuff between a bunch of characters then letting playonline id lapse on payment. they would get their stuff restored then reactivate the playonline id that had all the stuff and essentially double ancient currency etc.
We restored a guy once and then I saw him brag on a forum. I reported it to my superior and I left a note to the service so that when I wasn't on shift, people would be able to deal with him accordingly.
The guy called us again and that's where we busted him.
After this case happened, we were REALLY cautious with Game Data Recovery and I denied several of them (some of them thanks to FFXIAH/BG checks).
NA had different policies, though.
I really have a hard time believing you the way your posts come across.

Well that's honestly not the norm at all but if she was the target of extreme harassment, then I can see it happening.
I honestly think she was exagerating, I knew the guy she claimed was harassing her and honestly it was... Well I don't want to be superficial, I don't know exactely what happened, but from the outside it sure looked like she played "little princess" part.
I remember that thing surprised me a lot because I thought GMs didn't even have the technical instruments to change players' appearance. I guess LGMs or SGMs do maybe, just like you said.
And who doesn't remember [GM]Dave? hehehe.

I still have a text file with your unknown feats. I can't remember if I gave you a 72h suspension, did I? Refresh my mind please, I always mistake you for Bechinyy for some reason (maybe it's because your /tell chats were very similar).
ohhhh, do me next!

My Thanksgiving wish- this thread stays unlocked long enough for real fireworks. C'mon, I miss a good drama thread!

Yeah, no. Let's not.
