I would really like to know where people are getting "leeching is bannable" because it seems half of the community says it is and the other half says it isnt

I am guessing you are a kid and do not know the law and there for posted a stupid comment and I am not calling you stupid but your comment is. Ignorance of the law is not a excuse either........ Oh and just to add to this they can ban you for no reason at all they do not even need to warn you or give notice.

Power Leveling is a common term used to mean where one character is leveled up much more quickly than they could do alone by means of help from another player (Usually a much higher level then their own). Power Leveling happens when one or more players agree to train in a certain area, bringing along a player that cannot possibly help with the killing, yet who will still benefits from the training. This is also known as �leeching�. This action is a player to player agreement. If this service is provided in exchange for mesos, that is also a player to player transaction. So just to be clear, if you are in game playing with a friend or other player and one of you is leeching experience off the other this is completely between the two players involved. You may be cheating yourself by wiping away the challenge of leveling on your own, but that's a choice you have to make. However, as soon as you exchange REAL WORLD money for this service then you immediately break our Terms of Use and your account could be subject to punishment (See next question)." This is an old thread in the link. The ToS just changed so this is no longer active.

According to everyone that i've talked to the ToS is not clear in mentioning its only AGAINST TOS IF YOU PAY USING NX CASH, if you still pay in meso your fine

The "Powerleveling" statement is almost certainly refering to people who pay people real money to train there characters (google it, theres plenty of websites, similar to buying mesos)." My friend bought 300m mesos and didnt get banned o-o

Leeching is not a offense at all and has nothing to do with RWT.

They check how much exp you gain, if they think that it is too much, they will think you are botting or anything. This eventually leads to a ban.

im guessing its only bannable if the person selling leech is using a macro to attack,as nexon would take this as "botting".

Sadly no I've "read" the ToS and nothing about paying in game money/items for a service was deemed illegal only if it's payed with real money and/or NX. Trust me if it were illegal I'd be spamming like crazy =D *Waits for Party System Change*
