@OP

1 Life is not fair.

2 You are not the most important person in the world.

There I said it. Now repeat those lines over and over until you get it and understand it. Once you have understanding life will be so much easier for you to deal with.

Gaile has stated that people are banned for cussing at OTHER PLAYERS, not cussing itself.

You were justly banned, so go cry somewhere else.


And, grasping, your screenshot didn't prove jack. It was a pic of a gold seller spamming you. You cannot report a gold seller if they are not in the same district. That is why they are not banned, because they are often not in the same district. Not that hard a concept.

yes, they need to do something about the gold selling bots, OP using bad language is not the answer either....report is the ONLY thing we can do right now (and if you need to vent swear at the wall or something --the wall wont ban you).....we all find the bots very frustrating.

Never been banned. And they were in his district, if you had looked at his party bar...not a hard concept

I have repeatedly reported bots in the same district, only to see them back tomorrow, next week, next month and a year later.

Shouldn't be surprised you're still missing the point though...

Man I love it when people come on to the forum when they've been banned. It's always good for a laugh.

Have a kitten who's almost as sad as the OP!



By the way, can I use the phrase, "morals of failure"? ^_^

I can sum up everything I just read in one sentence:

Don't yell at other people.

Anyways, you know you shouldn't be swearing at them.

It's usually gold farm for the people that gold farm, or sell their kidneys to get food for them and their families.

Stop trying to justify swearing in game. It's against the EULA as a bannable offence. Just accept it and do something else with your life for 72 hours.

I was to no degree serious about petitioning for a EULA change. It's my sarcasm and lack of sympathy for the OP's whining over a ban for the use of inapropriate language.

-*-Picture-*-
I was in Great Temple for about twenty minutes today, and I got messaged about 15 times with that same message to buy gold from that site. I couldn't find the guy, or report him. It's ridiculous how many sellers there seems to be.

Atellier is exactly right, and it just goes over everyone's head. He is simply saying that it is stupid for him to get a ban and not these dumba... gold sellers.

Everyone Read FTW !!

So the gold sellers came up with a new tactic to avoid the /report feature?

The solution, until A-Net comes up with something else, is reporting them the old fashioned way - email support with a SS (you've got the name) and press on. If they DON'T get reported, nothing will change. (That's right, channel all of that energy of anger and frustration into a constructive activitiy that addresses the problem)

And OP - don't think you've been treated unfairly because you got your wrist slapped for breaking the EULA and others haven't. They'll be dealt with soon enough.
