i was perma for selling 10 fames for 20k.(ingame service)

pinguinius · May 06, 2009, 09:30 PM // 21:30

I made a warrior named "I Pooped." I figured if they didn't want me to have poop in my name, they'd not have let me input it, like other offensive words. After some use, he served mainly as a mule. 2 years later, I got a 72 hour ban out of the blue. I guess someone saw the name in the 5 minutes I was logged on and decided reported it.

I wish Anet had something other than 72 hour bans. In WoW, I remember, they first talk to you and give you a warning before doing anything, unless whatever you're doing is serious. Then a 3 hour, then a 24, 72, etc.

Never ever never.

Cale Roughstar · May 06, 2009, 11:02 PM // 23:02

Never. I mostly avoid the trash talk and swearing at people, after all, it is only a game.

Though if my henchies and heroes could report for abuse/offensive language, I would have been permabanned years ago

HawkofStorms · May 06, 2009, 11:23 PM // 23:23

No.
Funny how a lot of the people who say they have are all responding along the lines of "WTF a.net sucks &%^&! **#&!@**@&*"
For the most part, the people who are banned deserved it.

Every once in a while a mistake gets through (ie, a friend of mine got banned when A.net messed up his credit card information when he bought new storage), but most mistakes are quickly fixed (my friend got his account back in one business day).

four year one ban had a little problem with my credit card used the wrong card by mistake to make a purchase but got it all resolved thanks to support ban was lifted even though it was deserved.

Arkantos · May 07, 2009, 01:48 AM // 01:48

Been playing for a little over 3 years, no bans. I'm surprised, tbh.

I been playing since Beta, and I have no intention of getting myself ban. I have 4 accounts, the main account has collector edition ;3

KrisNaga · May 07, 2009, 09:38 AM // 09:38

I have never had a warning or a ban of any kind and I intend to keep it that way. If anyone starts talking crap on the game I immediately add them to my blacklist so I never have to listen to them again, I don't talk to people unless I have to and if a discussion comes up about race,religion or something or other in alliance or guild chat I turn them off, I don't play the game for other people, I play it for myself and I don't care what other problems people have.

**Marty Silverblade** · May 07, 2009, 09:53 AM // 09:53

Never been banned on anything.

Not on GW.
Not on Guru.

Nothing. Ever.

If you time it with a long weekend holiday where you wont have access to Guild Wars anyway it wont even inconvenience you. Problem solved.

But no, no bans here.

One ban, 72 hours. What happened?

1) I was standing in GToB, running around, and someone traded me out of the blue.
2) I hit "Submit Offer" and he hit "Submit Offer". My trade was empty, his has 100K gold.
3) I pmed him "?? You're giving me 100k?"
4) He didn't reply.
5) I hit "Accept", he hit "Accept". I got 100K for nothing!
6) After 5 mins, he PMs me in really broken english (like he doesn't speak english), "Sorry back 100K pls. Wrong person"
7) I was contemplating, whether I should return him? Should I?
8) I returned him the 100K, after LOL'ing at him for 5 mins.
9) After 10 mins i got banned for buying in-game gold, and was told that the 100K will be removed from my inventory.
10) Filed support ticket, no response.
11) 72 hours later, ban lifted, and my storage had -100K gold (and that was after I RETURNED the 100K gold).
12) Pissed (I missed a double faction weekend), spammed support till they got back to me.
13) 1 week later i got back my 100K.

It shows how Anal Anet can be when it comes to the ban stick.

lord of all tyria · May 07, 2009, 04:58 PM // 16:58

72 hours for spamming "we win" over 100 times in HA local chat. This was because we had blocked ourselves in front of tV's IWAY for luls and then won at /roll. The injustice, they didn't leave!
