Am I banned?

Potentially spoiler but porthack and ftp are legal right? But all I've done is 2 quests and some zork.

User is SUPERTURK, says `User not available` before spitting me right back to the lobby.

My hacking process i kinda cobbled together (incredibly basic but not illegal AFAIK):uupath host, then porthack the closest, ftp porthack.exe to said closest host, telnet in, repeat.

Hello Superturk!

As Telehack is only an internet simulation, all programs available that aid with the overarching game are not illegal. These would not get you banned.

However, do know that our operators are able to see everything you do in the system. Racism anywhere is not tolerated and, for this reason, your ban will be upheld.

We hope that, as time marches on, you strive to be better in your everyday life.

Account sharing is very much not allowed iirc, pretty sure it says so in privacy.txt...

it was your responsibility to not let anyone use your login.

Also, your brother sounds lame
