Thanks, Glennos, you 'da man. I searched the Forums as well, like someone else in that thread, but didn't see anything either (helps to use the right search terms, though). What's really odd is I had the cash for full price on the 5 planes -- I wasn't counting on a discount to make the purchase so I'm not sure why it picked me up. Oh well, it finally worked so who cares?

Well (all red-faced) I don't know how but I tried it again and now the purchase went through. It's been hours since the first time (not like I have no patience and gave up after 30 seconds) but now it works.

So, thanks to the admin's that got me off the Bad Guy list! :shappy:

I'm not really new here but I don't post much (like...none at all). I've been operating Heartland since last Fall some time, slowly climbing up the list as I've figured things out, playing cleanly, partly because I don't KNOW how to cheat this game but mostly because winning isn't everything and playing, and somewhat succeeding, by the rules is satisfying.:shappy:

Anyway, I had a buildup of cash over the weekend (out of town -- couldn't logon and spend it in realtime) and I tried to buy 5 new A321's but got a Hacker Alert page. Not just at home but also at work. Now I know players buy a lot more than 5 at a time so it can't be the quantity that triggered it. I don't cheat so if the AI that detects cheaters picked me up, we have an AI problem. I don't get it. :puzzled:

How can I get UN-blacklisted so I can buy these aircraft and put them to work?? And it would be really, really nice if this could happen before 5pm US Central Time so I could buy them before the month end (I'm busy between 5 and the month end).

By the way, where is the Moderator list so I can message them instead of the Forum? There is no Moderator list in the FAQ that I could find.
