    Simutronics permanently banned my accounts, Ereztheex and Yashar, for unattended experience gain and inappropriate comments. I admit to these actions but believe that a permanent ban, particularly for a character with over 20 years of history, is disproportionate. The staff's decisions were based on personal bias, looking beyond in-game interactions as personal attacks, rather than an objective evaluation.There is also a glaring lack of diversity within Simutronics, likely contributing to biased decisions and unfair treatment. My attempts to resolve the issue were met with dismissiveness, and I was even removed from their Discord channel for speaking out, further demonstrating their disregard for customer concerns.Resolution Sought:Immediate reinstatement of my accounts (Ereztheex and ******) without further retaliation.A commitment to open, constructive communication from Simutronics.An audit of Simutronics business practices to address bias and unprofessional conduct.

    Simutronics is an online gaming company, specifically the creator/owner of Gemstone IV (previously Gemstone III). Ove the course of the last year, I have paid them in excess of $14,000 for for in-game items. Recently, they have made up charges against me because they didn't believe I paid them enough money for what I "earned". I have been unable to resolved this with them, and have asked for a full refund of my purchases. In response to this, they have permanently banned me from the game and stopped comminicating.
