AuthorUsed to have illegal transfers
(Not sure if right place to post, move if necessary)

It wasn't obvious to me at first but I created this account back in 2009, 9 years ago when I was still a kid. I was going through some of my first transfer and combat logs to maybe get a nostalgia hit and see if I remembered anything... and as you can guess by the title I was delighted when I saw... illegal transfers.


It hit me that it was just a matter of time until someone would find and report this. And at this point I would rather go out now than later, and I'd rather not sit and worry about waking up one day and being blocked :^) so I post here to essentially turn myself in and be at mercy of the lordswm gods. I make my case here.

My defence:
1. The last transfer took place around 2010(8 years ago!!). I think this is a strong indicator that I will NEVER do it again(given the assumption that I'm more mature now and wouldn't break that rule ESPECIALLY given that I'm making this post.

2. Given all the multis are blocked/deleted I don't quite remember how this account still exists, but I'm happy it is. I originally felt like playing this game again so I created an account, only to find out, wait maybe I'll try my old account. If this isn't a sign from the gods I don't know what is. Notice that the new multi I created(that is pretty much only used for enrolls/quick tournaments or to try out events) has ZERO illegal transfers.

3. I'll gladly accept a punishment of the sort A. Gold penalty or B. Temporary ban, but would very much prefer not to get permanently blocked.

4. My lawyer said not to say anything else because I'll just make my case worse.

And obviously some reasons to not overlook my wrongdoings:

1. Whether it happened yesterday or 10 years ago I am still guilty of the crime. So I deserve the punishment which is a (blocked)

2. Unfair to others who had illegal transfers but no second chance at things.

Enough joking around, love this game so I guess I'll be honest about this, there are things I'd like to add and maybe proofread before posting but I think this will do.

Basically, if I'm going to get blocked I'd rather do so now than later. So I am handing myself in. Thank you for reading.

You could transfer the gold amount to empire.
I had Illegal Transfers similar to yours in 2009 as well I think, buddy.
It is written at the end of my profile.

I got some Fines as Warning, and then what I did is to redirect the money won by Illegal Transfers to Empire, because that's what they told me to (Don't recall whom).
I think I could've sent back the gold to the multis again, as if nothing happened, not sure tho.

Your case seems exactly like mine (From what I've read, I don't know your case much), apparently.
You can do as I did and as Meshy says.

Hopefully they do not send a Flying Penguin to Jail.
... Since Penguins do not normally fly, you know... Unique specimen.
It'd be a great loss <3 Heehheh, kidding.
Hello Flying_Penguin,

Here are my two cents beyond the wise offer of Meshy.

After paying the fine, write in your character description that you were fined. This will help you to avoid being accused again of illegal transfers.

Moreover, from this day forward, no transfers at all. I'm not referring to artifacts rent, I mean giving loans or gifts or whatever. Keep a clean slate that everyone can inspect.

One of the major strengths of LWM and its popularity over the years, is that your ability to cheat is slim to none. You can cheat today, but sooner or later someone will pick it up and your character will be blocked.

So, welcome back and good gaming for us all.
Thanks for the responses, should I just go ahead and count everything up and pay it to Empire or wait for an official response? I'm not planning on giving loans or anything of the sort. Would this affect me if I were to try and have some sort of carreer with enchanting/smithing?

You won't get an official response.. though technically you could report yourself and wait for empire to take it, or see if they will take your apology as enough. :)
I briefly checked Your transfer log and it seems You had not that much of illegal transfers. As far as I see it was about 5-6 transfers and value was about alltogether 10000g which I think is not a huge crime.

You could transfer the gold amount to empire.

However it sureley deserves some fine... but if You transfer it to Empire I think it is enough.
Thank you all. I posted an official report and I'll see what the outcome will be.
