I'm sure theres some anecdotal false positives and mistakes but I've reached the point where if someone gets banned I just assume they're dirty and really don't make any effort to believe the excuses, partly because I don't really care all that much anymore that they're dirty (unless they're a cunt about it and complained about other people's hacking being worse or whatever). The EQ dindu nuffin into yes actually you were cheating trend is so bad I've actually become pretty skeptical in general to the point where I instinctively disbelieve anyone complaining false arrest or whatever. Like yeah I know mistakes get made and cops suck (and especially pre modern tech) but I dont believe people at the start anymore.
Started playing right before kunark, been an absolute menace many times, been associated with friends/guilds of serious cheaters who ate many suspensions and some even permas... never got nuked. Not once. Know some bros in similar positions over numerous tlps and they dont cheat, never hit. Im a shit towards the devs alot but I really dont think theyre nuking innocent people all that much, if at all anymore.
Stop breaking the law, assholes.
