Permabanned for advertising Occupy Stormreach

I got confirmation that I was permanent banned for advertising occupy stormreach on khyber.

...

Of course, they reversed the decision, but still I'm still incredibly pissed since I lost a weekend of playtime and because of the stress thinking that I lost about $200 worth of TP, a completionist and all the other time investments over the past 3 years.

No offense, but this is incredibly ridiculous.  Will I get any sort of compensation for almost a whole week of lost play time?  Not to mention the stress of a PERMANANT BAN and not even knowing why?

I did not spam anything, I wrote into general chat ONCE and a PRIVATE channel ONCE.  Can you please explain to me how this is spamming by ANY definition of the word?

now THAT is fucking pathetic.  PERMA-BANNED?  Even the downgrade to 3-days is a fucking joke.

people can type "WTT +2 TOME BLAH BLAH BLAH" every five minutes with no repercussions, but one thing about a bunch of people wasting time on a bridge and you get a banplug?

The best are the people who stand in the Harbor and emote non stop. I want to stab them in the dicks with sporks. And that to me is way more annoying than someone talking about a protest in a channel.

Glad you got it reversed.

I'm seriously considering just uninstalling DDO. I've taken many breaks but the next step seem to be delete toons and uninstall.

I don't think naming names would be a good thing for me to do, but I'd pretty much add anyone who's a know-it-all dick on the list.� Even if they are sometimes intelligent with their opinions, the way they state them in long, "i'm a lawyer at trial"-type posts makes me want to punch them in the face.� They act like whiney babies with god complexes and then freak out if someone so much as breathes criticism in their direction.

Yep.  Harbor general is full of stasi.  I only stalk female toons (or halflings) in PMs now and I only get reported about half the time I used to.

I'd send an e-mail to the folks at Massively and MMO Whateverthefuck that other website was (fallout?) letting them know that you got permabanned for advertising the protest.

You should have sent them an email about the this banning debacle too. Highlight the incompetency, as well as tyranny of Turbine.

Where I got two ban notices and then I was re-banned before getting the "your ban has been extended" email? Mine wasn't related to the bridge protest. Neither of the two sites, to my knowledge, covered the exploit and subsequent bannings so they likely don't care.

Besides there are enough people on high horses all over the internet at large that would agree with the most irate "hang the dupers high!" people on the forums. I doubt it would accomplish anything, except to make me look like a bratty kid who got caught with his hand in the cookie jar. I did the crime, I'm doing the time. No biggie. Now if this had happened a year ago, I'd be right there screaming about being banned for a month. Now, not so much. And as I said in the other thread, I didn't even USE the stuff I duplicated. I just did it because I could.

pretty much this.   if I had been thinking instead of just fucking around the first thing I would have done is max out plat and made sure all of my guild's alts were at plat cap before doing anything else.


no pity party here.  just confounded by how stupidly this whole thing is being handled.  smack my ass and get it over with already.
