Ive been gone for a few days and when i came back i went to log on and it said my Acct. was blocked =( anyone know what the heck is going on?

Maxiemonster · Jul 01, 2005, 01:18 AM // 01:18

That's pretty strange, did you get a message saying your account was blocked, or did you just can't log in? And did you download or do anything strange lately that could've caused ANet to block your account?

Squallox · Jul 01, 2005, 01:18 AM // 01:18

What was the exact error message? Have you done anything dodgy in the past such as botting?

Xiaro · Jul 01, 2005, 01:19 AM // 01:19

well i can get a screenie of what it says just a minuite
EDIT: No! never any botting lol i dun wanna pay 50 bucks to get a new acct so im not takin the chance!
Edit 2: ok heres exactly what it says...

Cerby · Jul 01, 2005, 01:23 AM // 01:23

Just wait, you obviously did something, its only a few hours tops.

Xiaro · Jul 01, 2005, 01:25 AM // 01:25

actually ive done nothing for the past few days, ive been out of town...

Ketendra · Jul 01, 2005, 03:17 AM // 03:17

I suggest you contact Anet about it then, and find out who knows your e-mail address and who might be able to figure out you password (assuming of course that you didnt give it out to anyone)

NightStalkerXT · Jul 01, 2005, 03:20 AM // 03:20

And if/when you change your password ,make it complex. ie no real words, combo of letters and numbers ect.

MCS · Jul 01, 2005, 03:23 AM // 03:23

:O

I hope cussing people out for being idiots isn't unacceptable behavior or I better watch my back.

Email them and ask em for a general list for unacceptable behavior and post it here

.

Squallox · Jul 01, 2005, 03:26 AM // 03:26

I think it is classed as unacceptable behavior if people report it with a screenshot.

Ketendra · Jul 01, 2005, 03:27 AM // 03:27

LOL, good idea, or alot of us could be in for a nasty little temp ban

MCS · Jul 01, 2005, 03:29 AM // 03:29

Why do they have a chat filter if we aren't supposed to cuss anyway

.

BTW have any of you noticed on the language change thing that fake language, when I first saw that I was laughing SO hard.

They should put leet in there.

I would die.

Squallox · Jul 01, 2005, 03:31 AM // 03:31

Some people can abuse the chat filter by spacing out words etc. Also extensive abuse, even when filtered out. Can be offensive to some. Every time i want to swear at a noob at the tombs i think happy thoughs

Ketendra · Jul 01, 2005, 03:34 AM // 03:34

actually it is hard to just use spaces to get past the chat filter, I was playing with it one day, and you have to put a few spaces between each letter for it to work, or at least you used to, havent done it in a while so they may have changed it now that I think about it.. I know you had to use almost an entire chat line to get one bad word out.

MCS · Jul 01, 2005, 03:34 AM // 03:34

I should be able to cuss as much as I want as long as I type it perfectly so it's filtered

.

Ketendra · Jul 01, 2005, 03:36 AM // 03:36

MCS - are we trying to see how many times we can post at the same time tonight?

MCS · Jul 01, 2005, 03:39 AM // 03:39

I was told I post 100 times a day, I wouldn't want to make some poor person a liar!

Okay okay, real post.

Since it's probably the first time you've done something to get this it says it'll only last a bit then go away.

Sadly I don't believe it's a mistake and probably IS something that you did.

It would take them days if not weeks to get to you if someone had reported you for something.

Ketendra · Jul 01, 2005, 03:44 AM // 03:44

I would at least contact them to find out what you did (and whether someone reported you or if it is something they caught you doing) most likely it is someone reported, however I can almost guarantee that they will not tell you who did the reporting (most games dont, or it can cause BIG problems).

I have only submitted something to Anet once, and when I submitted it, it said I should hear back from them within 24 hours, but it took almost 3 days to get a response, so dont be surprised if you dont get a quick response. By then you will probably be back in game, but if it were me, I would want to know what the ban was for!!

Tyreal The Vampiric · Jul 01, 2005, 04:08 AM // 04:08

Someone probably randomly told Anet your E-mail address, since Anet can get no proof of your bad thinger mijjiger, they took the ****ersi878t34g3ughghegrgjvbrgv7vrjsvnkjfdvjsdfvdn jvksdzv7q3y4gfjnvdsvd8uvnj4egm4kbvbnebrmi and ate a cookie while siting on santasnmjbegm bf ,dr vkmbuhbzs v z dxvm sdvcb svdbbcjxzmcvszfn and smoked 12 cigars jinvvjdbvdbfvvnkvnfvefvnn goodnight vnbvjknbdkblfbmkcfbmdfbdfuivi ST louis.
