Probably, but something good was done today, so I’m happy.
As I said, I’m not that negative on Blizzard. If they’re truly banning people for PVPing, though, there’s an issue with an employee making a rash decision.
If you follow the WoW Subreddit at all, it’s 80% why WoW is bad, and how Blizzard is awful. The bad press the game gets should be warranted by what they actually do wrong.
The type of thread this guy made (Which I also admittedly made) was literally a lie.
I didn’t know it was a lie, but I thought it deserved some attention, for good or bad.
If my actions cause a guy whose taking donations and lying at the same time, I’m fine with taking a ban. It’s not often justice like this happen to trolls on the internet. I’m happy with it.
I’ve seen people get banned for wpvp. In MOP the alliance population on Darkspear was high because after swifty got banned in cata for crashing servers (which should of stuck) people transferred Darkspear alliance.
We were holding their pvp vendors on the wall in Pandaria the way they would hold ours. Alliance would camp the horde pvp vendors for hours. We did it for like an hour and many of us got soft bans (1 hour or so) the guy orginizing it got a longer one.
Apparently there’s a Horde bias according to you alliance posters(rolls eyes)
Not really, they got what they were after since they said Blizzard also wouldn’t give them the information in a ticket about the reasoning of the suspension. Which is known for happening, just a vague “You broke the rules and are now suspended.” with you left to figure out what that was.
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 our attention so we could respond
