Well, obviously your name is dothackking....that wasn't a surprise . As for being forgiven, most definitely. Personally, I don't ban first time bastards that load amazing characters but know nothing about the game. I give them a warning to never do it again. If they don't listen, then I ban. It's better to admit to it and start over....than keep denying it like a certain someone.
However, for some cases, I do ban on first sight (usually the ones that deny it and then start cussing and flaming).
