You can get banned if you attack people in warmode

Be carful if you trun on warmode and kill people you can get banned for that now its considered harassment.

Just be warned if some one keeps coming back to where you killed them it a bannable offence now.

Why are you spreading lies good sir.

If you are whining about that Reddit post, already got discredited by a mod.

Player is Banned (72 Hours) for World PVP

It looks like the lovely CS team already responded to this player here and the Reddit mods pinned a post linking to the response at the top. TL;DR: OP wasn’t banned for World PVP, he was banned for harassing other players and bypassing the ignore system by sending them messages despite being told to stop. Since this is a post discussing a player action I’m gonna lock it for now as there isn’t anything else to discuss about it. Thanks for the community discussion though that flagged this to o…

Stop it.

Harassment is a much lower charge than murder. When you consider that we are getting off easy.

[Chaosnachos-bleeding-hollow (Chaosnachos)]

Perhaps, there is more to this story than the OP is stating. Some words perhaps got exchanged. Perhaps an ignore was circumvented to get the last word in?

In others words, I trust the OP as far as anvil can jump.

He didn’t get banned for doing things in Warmode, and this didn’t need another thread, especially since the first one got locked.

When you ban someone and don’t tell them why, what do you expect?

Blizzard is not required to tell you why, if you think it’s unfair, appeal it. Crying to the mob solves nothing. And most of the time, you end up looking the fool.

You’re telling me that he didn’t know that bypassing the ignore system to harass players would get him banned? PUH-LEAZE.

Also, they email you when they ban you with the reason. Saying otherwise is a flat out lie. My 1 day forum vacation was laid out in an email. They don’t shadow ban.

[Greyhide-khadgar (Greyhide)]

Do you think up and banning someone and not telling them why is smart or good practice? Imagine if you were arrested and thrown in jail but not told why and all you did that particular day was walk your dog in the park.

All I can say is, lmfaooooo.

[Warpstone-norgannon (Warpstone)]

Blizzard can ban you for any reason they deem fit. It’s their game and they make the rules.

Harassing players and circumventing the ignore feature is not “walking your dog in the park”

How have you made it this far in life with that level of critical thinking skills?

[Hamstar-draktharon (Hamstar)]

Yet someone else who knew him knew why the OP was suspended.

[Greyhide-khadgar (Greyhide)]

[Lathander-shadow-council (Lathander)]

People defending the guy getting suspended are exactly why I dislike a lot of ‘gamers’.

[Terrorgreshi-moon-guard]

Alright, Alright. Who here keeps getting their friends together and then guards the Torotllian WQ.

I think what he’s trying to say is that the reddit OP, never got any information on his suspension. From e-mail, from ticket, none of it. That is yet to be answered or seen, but it’s been a problem with Blizzard in the past to action an account and not say why or give the instance in which you broke that rule.

These threads would stop if that… lack of information on actions stopped. I think reddit OP would not have dared to make that reddit post if he knew a blue would come out and tell them why if he knew the reason. Because they’re essentially exposing themself by doing so.

[Greyhide-khadgar (Greyhide)]

Yes, exactly and that part was explained to others who jumped on the “LMAO” bandwagon.
