As for me - I've never been banned in gw, but I got banned plenty of times in MS for hacking and botting, but hell who didn't?

Why? Because it was hilarious. Everybody laughed with the exception of one random guy who was "offended" and he wasn't even Jewish....

Stop The Storm · May 07, 2009, 07:31 PM // 19:31

been playing for over 4 years

no warnings, no bans, nothing

Abedeus · May 07, 2009, 07:32 PM // 19:32

Never, ever. In any online game. Seriously.

A11Eur0 · May 07, 2009, 08:35 PM // 20:35

Once for an inflammatory whisper to a scammer. I went overboard and took a vacation. Got some work done in those 3 days so I'm fine with it.

I've done 400k+ other stuff in one go before with no ban. And I used to transfer 100ks+ between two accounts in a matter of minutes when I was seriously trading. No bans for that.

Ban he! :P

On-topic, no bans ever in game. I was banned on guru for a few days for multi-threading and warned for cussing at someone though.

Fitz Rinley · Jun 13, 2009, 03:43 AM // 03:43

Yes, banned once, 72 hours, for using expletives deleted. However, I don't care. I spent 4 hours attempting to do V-square HM and could not get through for No Fault of My Own! For 4 hours Master Slogo got stuck at various and random places in the map. Going through first door, stuck; going up ramp, stuck; going passed treasure chest, nope - stuck; going cross bridge, nope - stuck; rounding corner with chest, stuck; etc. ad nauseum. This was after having to twice repeat Arborstone because Danika was too mesmerized by the stain-glass shrine to move. And Korlis Deeprunner lost us the mission there because he was too fascinated with treasure chest to walk buy it - stuck. After those and the 4 hours of - S t u c k! I was angry.

GW has known about these problems since they published the games and the best they could come up with as an excuse for doing nothing was: We have never seen these glitches on any of our test computers so we can't fix them. I find it incredulous that in 4 years they can't fix the problems. Like having to go back and agro the trees you can't hurt in order to get the druid to finish walking to the circle in Bloodstone Fen. They don't fix them because they like wasting our time and making sure we accomplish nothing in a reasonable time and manner (the basis for skill destruction as soon as anyone can find a way to start gaining ground against game goals).

So yes, I got P/Oed and I screamed in public chat loud enough to get their attention and find out they really dont give a rat's A about whether or not the game actually works.

Deserved, yes - according to whatever narc wanted to leave their chat filter off so they could feel good about being offended. However, I counted on them to get attention on something that should not be broken and about which GW Does Not Care! because they do not really give a rat's A about our community at all except for whether or not they can get more money out of us for the next whatever.

Because of these behaviors (and not just in GW) most of my gaming clan has writtin NC Soft off. After they banned one of us for attempting to get his free storage page, and then lied and said it only affected a some people on Euro servers, they have further alienated many of us. Several have simply gone to playing other games from other companies. And if they continue screwing up GW 1 and planning to make GW 2 into a PvP push palace, then I doubt those of us still playing will have any reason to promote anything else they do to anyone searching for a game.

Xr Cuun · Jun 13, 2009, 04:14 AM // 04:14

Banned 3 times on 2 different accounts,72 hours all of them i believe
Ban 1-Missed no more selling in "all" chat update,Was camping,Undesereved
Ban 2-Swearing at stupid 12 year old naruto nerds,Deserved
Ban 3-Flame war between a stupid monk that kept running in RA,Undeserved since she wasted like 10 minutes of my time even after she used her rez and continued to keep running so i B*tched her out

I wish they would do this more often. Even if they only made it a 1 hour ban.

Amen.

Three bans:

Two 72 hour bans for being naughty (Saying F-off in local and such) in local. (Both very deserved and they were worth it.)

One perma ban for screwing with my guildie (I know he wasn't the one who reported me). I said, and I quote, "im in ur c0mput0rz haxx0ring ur pr0nz." (Undeserved.)

I was permabanned for "threatening to hack" because it's, as the ban told me, "Breech of conduct."

Four days and I had the perma overturned. Didn't even get a "Whoops, sorry. Didn't realize you were joking". Just had it undone. Works for me, though.

UNOXani · Jun 13, 2009, 08:09 AM // 08:09

Banned for 4 days, because of Fraud! In the big "Shop accident" of a few weeks ago.

Was it deserved, nope, ANET error (Affected a good number of people), but had good contact with ANET and it was resolved in an "accectable" but annoyingly long length of time!

ShoGunTheOne · Jun 13, 2009, 09:37 AM // 09:37

sharing of account
banned for 72 hours
turned to a perma ban
support ticket through my godly persuasion skills
unban

got lucky i think :P
almost 3 years of playing ^^

Raccoon · Jun 13, 2009, 10:06 AM // 10:06

Anet are pretty infamous for banning over mundane things. I very much doubt any of them actually go to great temple of balth Int dis 1 and see all the obvious bots.

This got me laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes and a little wet spot in my shorts. I mean I laughed hard, long and loud and its 3 am in the morning so the people who live near me must be none to happy with me right now! Roflmfao!

Like 36 months of playing, never banned. I get smashed hard when I play games sometimes on booze and herbal love. So I have, on occasion, used profanity In just about every single town/district and region there is. I must just get the lazy people who can't be troubled to report me.

I'v turned on allies in RA and PvE. Ran away and let the other team/monsters kill the person I didn't like. Always the people who try to tell me/friends/teammates how to play, what to use or how tasty us noobsteaks are. (you gotta PM the other team for this to work. They love it

)

I bash on satanists all the time.

And have had death threats against me, hack threats against me. lol. But I'm still here and so is my account.

For the most part, I try to follow the rules and be a cool customer. I don't enjoy making others angry, but sometimes its fun. (picture a little angry 100lb 14 yr old rage screaming at his pc monitor and beating the hell out of his keyboard) Thats always a good way to kill 5 minutes.

I have been banned once on starcraft in like 98 for calling a Bser a self hating inbred homosexual nazi. He screenshotted it and reported me. Got that account locked but I had like 2 others.

But I really enjoy guildwars and worked hard on my warrior (almost 4 years on the same character) so I put forth alittle extra effort to watch what I do and who I do it around.

I don't use vent because the sound of 14-16 yr old voices get under my skin. Also I can't handle the language gamers use. No profanity, but stuff like "Uber" and "Noob", hell one time someone even said "Rofl". I just want to choke them until they stop living.

I'v been banned on the playstation forums for life and on the aqua teen hunger force forums and I had a few myspace accounts closed due to calling some moderaters names I can't repeat here.

Oh and I'm no longer welcome at seaworld. But thats neither here nor there.

Word of advice, don't get drunk and throw stuff at the announcers.

1st 72 hour ban- Got pissed at a guild in an alliance joined them and after a month got officer and then 15 days later gl went on vacation and since i was on the most gave me leadership. Where as i kiced everyone and got rid of the guild while he was saying good bye. Banned for Bad intentions.

2nd 72 hour- Swearing in halls while holding someone diddnt like that.

3rd. 72 hour- Talking about the natural occurence between a girl and a guy in allchat.

4th. 72 hour- Evidently izzy diddnt like getting yelled at

1st perma ban- Accused of using 3rd party program. I honestly have only used texmod but i always found it funny when farming to when ever i enter town to type in all chat saying the same thing over and over every time i enter like a bot would and run the same path to the exit everytime. It just seems to annoy/bother some people

2nd perma ban- No clue why this one happend but was reversed 3 days later with a emailed apology from anet.

Ip Restriction- Got yelled at by an admin and told them i was going to go to the Hq and find them. They diddnt really like that >.> <.<

you're a horrible, horrible person

ebeast · Jun 13, 2009, 12:40 PM // 12:40

28 months playing, have been banned once for 72hours becouse spamming in the chatt channel, sounds embarrassing... it was the first day they announced the new chatt channel rule and i didn't know it.

Big_Daddy · Jun 13, 2009, 02:36 PM // 14:36

Not that I know of.
I am too busy with work, my family and BBQ's.
I log in, sometimes go to Kamadan and enter on a discussion with someone, we trade insults in all chat, then I go to farm something and then log off for another 2-3 weeks.
So if there was a /report for my language and got banned for XX amount of hrs, I have never known.
