Jagex ARE on sythe.

'You have been deemed to have been in complete control at the time of the incident.'

This means that they've proved it via in-game IP checks. You were advertising ingame for selling gold.

i never advertised in game, that just means that no one has logged on my account with a different ip.

Also, it wouldn't be THAT hard to find some Sythe users.

Right click any of the Runescape pages > view source.

They track which page you're coming from whenever you visit ANY Runescape page. It wouldn't be hard for them to see "Sythe.org" and flag the IP address, then investigate any account that has used that IP address.

It would only take ONCE in all of the time you've ever been on Sythe for you to go from Sythe to Runescape and they'd have your IP address stored for later review.

You gave them the last letters of your username, which would eliminate LOTS of people on that possible list, as well as how much of a cash stack you had along with two items. I highly doubt there are many other accounts that have all of those same characteristics in common.

I'm not saying that this is how you got caught, but it's a possibility.

 

[Flight]

Fuck, thank god I blank out my name and never post it on the site.

Doesn't this mean that Sythe can take legal action on them though?

That would be an interesting court battle though.

Although, we could always have a wanna-be mod on this site that just reports players to Jagex, hence he's not an employee if he doesn't get paid or anything....

Your messenger email or the account login email/associated email or the email which you have used to buy membership was the same, I think that's how Jagex got you.

Start using Skype people

all my accounts are username logins not email. and i never register emails.

 

[Karl Breezy]

Dave.. Sorry for your loss, but if I may ask. How do you personaly think you got caught? I see other people suggest, but I have not seen anything from you.

 

[Dave.]

personally think it could have been any of these things


i was banned in 2006 for RWT so they may have kept an eye on me or reviwed my ip or something

A sythe member/jagex mod on sythe reported me

i just was in the wrong place wrong time and got caught

or that i've missed something so blatanlty obvious mistake i made, but i doubt it.

 

[JstarD]

Fuckkk, thanks for warning us all

 

[WeRnIE]

all my accounts are username logins not email. and i never register emails.

You was a member, so you needed to enter some email when you subscribed.

 

[Dave.]

You was a member, so you needed to enter some email when you subscribed.

used my paypal email to buy members which is not my sythe email.

 

[Austintheman]

my name was blurred out, you could only see the last 2 letters, and they just chain banned every single account thats logged onto my ip. so fuck my life.

ohh shit... i would not like this to happen.. i have like 6 130+ on my IP..

 

[CMotDibbler]

I think that the message we take from this is firstly to be constantly vigilant, and also to make sure that we are very careful regarding who we trade with. I'm always careful to avoid putting my username on Sythe.

 

[PixxelJunk]

Someone at Jagex is probably passing the link to this thread around the office for the lulz already because this is page 5 and we are still clueless on how they figured out the account name.

My best guess is that they work undercover on forums like sythe, pretend to be noobs willing to trade their dollar for pixels. That's how they catch internet pedophiles...

 

[RuteckiNJ]

Doesn't it violate the terms of Sythe? Doesn't it say something like.. You agree you aren't a member, or affiliated with Jagex?

 

[Eclipse01]

Itd be very stupid of anyone to assume jagex ISNT on sythe.

 

[Jumby]

@ Ruteck - Isn't it against the terms of Jagex to sell their gold for real life gain?

 

[l2botbroski]

I thought it was against the ToS on Sythe for Jagex to even be on Sythe? If they got their proof from Sythe then they are subject to a lawsuit.

*Off topic, but your title should read, "Jagex IS on Sythe." or "Jagex Moderators ARE on Sythe."

 

[Listen to Young Money]

Wow, shit just got real. Very unfortunate for you, sorry about your losses. This just means we have to be more cautious with anything that has to do with rwt.

 

[Nympho]

I'm calling Fake...

After countless number of posts on sythe, your the first one I have heard of.

 

[Tera Melos]

It's definitely Pmods leaking them information. On the Pmod forums, they have direct access to speak with a JMod.
