My Guild Wars account was banned for 2 weeks last night because i was Bsing with my friend and we were using the Nword on each other..(ITS OUR WORD!)
and i just want to know why i got banned, and when my sister would spend hours on GW telling everyone SHe was going to Kill Herself and 2 months ago she did kill herself.

Why didnt the GMS just ignore that? countless peopel reported my sis, and even i told her DONT DO THAT and tried to get her help and stuff, but it just didnt work out..

Im so mad

um u got reported by someone then. They can ban us if its only through pms

you would have to have been reported...and therefore using that word in public.

And how can you feel like you shouldn't be banned when you're using a racist, inappropriate word in the local chat? It doesn't matter what the intent behind it is when it's open to interpretation by anyone in the same district as you.

Screenshot or it didn't happen.

It really is pathetic having to make up an excuse like that to justify your inappropriate behavior.

Using the word RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO gets you banned, how are anet supposed to know that its 'your word' someone took offense to it and you got punished. Serves you right tbh. And as to whatever you said about your sister commiting suicide, that has bugger all do to with anything.

Pretty sure you don't own the word.

Oh and also. [Rebirth].

I'm not sure why people think the Q&A forum is the complaints forum. Anyhow, if you do have an issue with an ingame ban, take it up with Arenanet through their Support site. Closed.
