DioBrando Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Hi everyone, I want to share with you guys a faster way of retrieving an old account that was lost to macroing or whatever the cause may be, so typically I hear about people Appealing their bans directly and 'apologising' well I went with a different approach recently and it worked a treat. Instead of appealing your account which can take up to 2 weeks for a response, this is what I did: Recovered my account via recovery questions mentioned to them in the comments to hopefully I can play again and I got unbanned within 24 hours. The ban was from 2016 which was a long time ago and it was for Macroing Major though I hope this can help some of you especially some of the more impatient people. I have yet to try it on more than one Account but it seems to me like it would work generally speaking. Let me know your guys thoughts and if you try it post your feedback below so we can gather analytics on it. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manko Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 i dont know but the age off the ban seem to be a facter, i just today seen one off my accounts i had banned on RS3 10 years ago got unbanned after appealing. got a email back saying people can change, we know you botted but take this as a last chance dont do it again so on and so on. tryed one that was banned 2 years ago but dont think that will be unbanned at all.

I just retried even the normal method with 5 accounts from 2015-2016-2017 and they work, Account Age is definitely a factor when getting a 'Second Chance' I just found generally speaking this way is a lot faster than the other method of appealing the ban directly.
