This is priceless :rofl::sweat_smile::joy:

Yet despite this claim you have not been able to address any of the concerns without pulling a made up answer out of your rear.

There are people to the left of the bell curve but its not he people you think.

Hell despite questioning some of the peoples intelligence in this thread they at least attempted to give arguments you can’t or won’t even do that.

It makes me wonder if you had been told the Earth was flat by an authority figure if you would never question it and tell others to stop questioning it as well. I’m really curious as to what kind of personality type you have and what other core beliefs make your world view possible.

All you have to do is read the blue post. It’s not my fault you can’t understand it. It really is very simple and there is no need to be concerned over a silly video game.

Ok, weird. Authority has nothing to do with it. I can read and comprehend.

The funny thing is it will only take until one of these people gets banned, and they’ll be raging on the forums that they followed the rules as they understood them but somehow still got banned.

You can’t despite your claims. If you read it as written its essentially says nothing other than we can and will ban players for leaving without telling us what criteria they use.

You can make stuff up.
You can pretend it says otherwise.
You can even say its common sense despite people clearing explaining to you that there is a blurry line at some point where some people are banned and others are not.

The fact is you are the one reading more into it than what it says yet challenge other peoples posts despite us breaking down in full detail why its bad as well as why it does not succeed at their supposed goals. Hell at some point I think I even broke it down using a logical soliloquy.

I suspect it does have something to do with it but lets grant you that. Than its simply an issue of reading comprehension.

That’s their criteria.

I can and did read it and understand. You are the one that cannot. I will never get suspended because I wont do what was listed.

I am sorry this is so hard for you and some others. You can lead a horse to water but you cant make it drink.

I’ve been playing WoW for 15 years and cursing in WoW public channels for 15 years. I’ve never had an account actioned against.

Until you suddenly find out that you broke the rules on accident because what you thought was recklessly disruptive doesn’t match their definition.

You seem to not grasp that concept.

And how do you know that. Have you ever left a dungeon?
If so than there is the potential that the next one you leave will result in a ban.

Its as simple as that and if you can’t grasp that simple logic I don’t know what to tell you. This is one of the simplest logical puzzles if you can call it that I’ve ever seen, yet you seem to fail at it repeatedly.

Hell even a bot can work it out:

Prompt used: Please analyze the following post and tell me if its clear criteria and if people need to worry about loosing their account. Also post any and all concerns as well as how they should correct the post for clarity if needed. Also does this action meet their intent?

Analysis of the Post

Clarity of Criteria

The criteria for issuing suspensions are vague and subjective, which may lead to confusion and concern among players. The post mentions actions against players who “intentionally left Mythic+ groups a great many times” and engaged in behavior “either without regard for the experience of their fellow players or deliberately intending to harm others’ experiences.” However, it fails to define:

  • What constitutes “a great many times” (e.g., a specific number of incidents).
  • What qualifies as “deliberately intending to harm others’ experiences.”
  • How intent is determined and verified.

The lack of objective thresholds or definitions leaves room for players to worry about unintentional actions being misinterpreted as intentional disruption.

Concerns

  1. Ambiguity: The vague language makes it unclear what behavior will result in penalties. Players may feel anxious about being penalized for situations outside their control, such as unavoidable emergencies.
  2. Lack of Transparency: There’s no explanation of the process used to evaluate and confirm intentionality or recklessness. Without this, players might feel the system is arbitrary or unfair.
  3. Unclear Scope: The post does not specify whether penalties are applied based on automated detection, player reports, or a combination of both. This could lead to concerns about false positives.
  4. Unaddressed Situations: The post does not clarify how shared group decisions to disband a run (e.g., after multiple wipes) are differentiated from intentional disruption.

Recommendations for Improvement

To increase clarity and reduce player anxiety, the post could be revised as follows:


Updated Post Suggestion

Today, we issued gameplay suspensions to players who repeatedly and intentionally left Mythic+ groups in The War Within Season 1. This behavior, which we actioned after careful investigation, included:

  • Leaving runs [X] or more times within a specific timeframe (e.g., a week or season) without legitimate reasons.
  • Demonstrated patterns of intentional disruption, as confirmed by multiple verified reports or other evidence.

We want to reassure players that occasional abandonment of runs due to unexpected emergencies, connectivity issues, or group-wide decisions to disband is not subject to penalties. Our focus is on addressing repeated and reckless behavior that negatively impacts the broader community.

Moving forward, we will continue to monitor this behavior, and repeat offenders may face escalating penalties. If you believe you’ve been unfairly penalized, please contact our support team for review.

Thank you for helping us maintain a positive community in Mythic+ content.


Does the Action Meet Their Intent?

The action likely aligns with their intent to improve the Mythic+ community experience by discouraging disruptive behavior. However, the lack of clear criteria and communication could undermine this intent:

  • Players may feel unfairly targeted or mistrust the system.
  • Legitimate group challenges (e.g., underperformance, miscommunication) could go unaddressed, leading to further frustration.

By clarifying their policy, Blizzard could better meet their goal of fostering a positive community while minimizing unnecessary anxiety or backlash from players.

Honestly even their corrections is still not clear enough as it uses subjective language but at least its a bit clearer.

The only one failing is the one that cant understand this

I wont repeatedly and recklessly disrupt groups so I wont ever get suspended. Its quite simple for those of us that can comprehend it.

You don’t get to decide what reckless or disruptive is which again is the issue how can you not understand that…

I mean I get your slow at this point but even my 12 year old gets this.

But we are reaching the point where it obvious that you have nothing left to add and we are both repeating ourselves, so I’m done with you unless you have something else new to add.

Regardless, i can understand and wont ever be banned. It seems like if you worry about this so much you are concerned with your own behavior. I am not.

This is the last post to you since you will never be capable of understanding. I am glad I am blessed with the ability to read and comprehend. Its surprising how hard it is for some out there.

Alright more ignorance without anything new. I guess you have nothing new or interesting to add so I’ll be ignoring your post for at least a couple of days.

Leaving a mythic + group without the group agreeing to disband is against the TOS and also the social contract. I am glad people are getting banned. Too many toxic players and they need to be taught a lesson in manners.

The Social Contract tells us we have to be kind to other players and not cause issues in the game. We pay for the privilege of playing which can be revoked at anytime.
