I somehow had a hunch that you were the culprit for this incident.

Dear vkeong,
I told phirate @ www.phirate.com about your drop 300 cards in 5 seconds claim and he proceed to delete your account.
However, it is not my intention to get your account deleted.
Attached herewith is a reply I got from him after I requested him to not delete your account.

For openly admitting he was abusing the security system? I'm not really inclined to restore his account, however if you contact him and get:
a) A commitment not to abuse the security system again
b) A precise summary of the method he was using to perform the abuse sent to me at richard@redspider.co.nz
I will restore his account with a warning.
Peace.

Deimos Tel`Arin (DTA) @ ahkong.net

It is also very funny that the Entrecard owner would delete anyone's account without any concrete proof, besides that I claimed I *CAN* drop 300 cards in 5 seconds LMAO.
As for you, DTA @ Deimos @ AhKong @ Whatever Stupid Name with that stupid damn avatar, you have just made your very first LYN enemy. I know what you are trying to achieve, shoe-polishing phirate yeah? You think your blog is good? I tell you it's the most stupid blog I have ever seen in my life. The design is shit, the font is ugly and your smileys are annoying
To other LYN members, beware of this guy. I didn't do anything to him and yet he can stuck a knife at your back and openly admit to you he did it. And with Peace somemore, LMAO

Do you even have concrete proof that I am abusing the system? Besides that I openly admitted that the system *CAN* be abused? I said I *CAN* drop 300 cards in 5 seconds, but as far as I am concerned, I still drop them manually in the evening from 6pm-12am after I come back from work while playing games online. I will switch from dropping to gaming from time to time. Again, have you seen any activity in my Entrecard account that I have dropped 300 cards in 5 seconds before?
It is funny that you proceeded to delete my account based on his claim alone.

I saw you admit it openly on a forum. Our policy is simple, your word is good enough for us, if you say that you breached the security (and the word CAN implies that you have tested this) we're more than happy to accept that as sufficient proof and punish you for it.
You have two choices if you wish to remain a member, and you only have these choices because Ahkong requested that we not ban you outright as we would normally do.
You must either:
1. Provide us with the details of the method you utilized to subvertEntrecard security or
2. Post publically on the same forum thread with the following exact wording:
"I wish to apologize to my fellow Entrecard users for undermining their faith in the Entrecard system in order to boost my ego. I do not in fact have a method for automatically dropping cards rapidly. I also apologize to the Entrecard programmer, who is in fact awesome."
If you wish, you can post-fix that statement with "Entrecard made me say this to get my account back".
You must also provide me with a scan or digital photograph of a piece of paper, signed and dated by you, with the following wording:
"I commit henceforth never to abuse, or claim to abuse, the security systems of Entrecard."
You may write this with as much scorn as you like, crayon is optional.
Alternatively, you can tell me to get lost, and your account will remain deleted. you have 48 hours to complete the above tasks before this offer closes.
Regards,
Richard.

You can keep that account deleted, if I sign up using a new account. Will this be allowed?
And also, besides the claim i made in the forum
You also have to admit that you do not have the concrete proof or any log files to prove that I've abused the system. Yes or No
If yes, please show the proof thank you
Entrecard:

No, your site was banned at deletion. We do not differentiate between actual security abuse and claimed security abuse, for the obvious reason that both are damaging to the reputation of the credit, and therefore both have a negative effect on our users.
The options I provided are the only means by which you may continue to interact with Entrecard, either by restoring our reputation or by providing information that allows us to further protect our users.
Proof of abuse is not relevant to this discussion, we have a statement from you in a public forum. This is equivalent to shouting Fire in a crowded theatre, even if you did not light a fire, it is still an offence.
We will not restore your account without a clear and unambiguous retraction in the same forum you made the statement in, and a commitment in writing from you that will not make any further claims or attempts.
You have 39 hours remaining.
