lol…seriously or joking? lmao.
Ive said FARRR worse and ive seen stuff that’d curl a sailors hair in chat. They just just never stop doing it.
I did some digging, and it seems like your question has already been answered. Account suspension, Automation, doesn't seem fair - #15 by Tolna-veknilash
Specifically: (I can’t quote the exact quote but this is from Customer Service agent Vrakthris, who’s the head of the team I believe)
"Sorry for the confusion, Kiter, but this has nothing to do with any whispers or officer chat you may have had. The system shows you a sample of chat from the report, usually about 5 lines of it from a given period. Just because there are whisper and guild lines there, doesn’t mean that is the reason for the penalty.
As you inferred and from what I can see, the folks on your realm feel you are little overzealous with your LFM messages and spam the LFG channel.
That isn’t entirely true. You have a silence from September of 2019. It would be that history that escalated the penalty.
I’m sorry, Kiter, but at the others explained, there is no way to circumvent the normal queue times. You will need to wait for your appeal to be addressed.
As this is not the appropriate place to discuss account actions I’ll be closing this one out."
You since posted multiple threads in the forum more or less asking the same question in different ways. I really wouldn’t do that: Customer Services is for obvious reasons the most moderated forum, and you’ll just stockpile more punishments.

100%. Been getting insta banned here lately for the smallest slip up. The Titans are watching.
Well, masked profanity is pretty clearly against the ToS.
I dunno why people break the rules they agreed to, and then go surprised Pikachu when there’s consequences.

If successful you have one less infraction on your record, which can make a difference if you ever get in trouble down the road.
You could always try out New World. Their ban and appeal system is so much better …

Tbf when so many people do it, its easy to think the rules dont apply in practise.
Sometimes getting called out for rule breaking would be like getting arrested for piracy.
You know its not allowed but you dont think the rules will ever actually be enforced.
Yeah no, that’s straight to jail and you also lose all your gold.
Which is then sent to me via mail.

Appeals (Especially squelches, since those are automated) should have an expediated ticket queue that’s less than 12 hours at all times for sure. It’s kinda wrong they can waste your game time if the action COULD be incorrect either via automated squelch or via human error from reading incorrect data (As we saw with the AV/BG stuff previously.)
You’re not paying anything for classic. You pay for retail and because of that you get access to classic. Also the subscription price has never changed. It is still $14.99 a month.
Doesn’t matter… You’re talking exchange rates. If you’re paying more it is because the value of your dollar is less. Blame your Prime Minister

Are you seriously suggesting the 20 day wait time is ok because, “just don’t comment a crime”? Unless you live in a hole, there are a lot of false reports and problems currently. This customer service is atrocious and I’m more insulted you don’t care

Don’t you know? All bans are wrongful bans because no one who plays WoW ever does anything wrong!
We are all just little angels.

I’ve seen a lot of people whining about getting banned. There’s a difference.
Don’t break the rules and you won’t get punished. Someone has already shared a customer service response detailing what OP did wrong and that they’ve been actioned before, so I’d read the thread before you come in white knighting them.

Once again that’s incredibly naive. Blizzard has some of the worst customer support there is and frankly it’s maddening more people aren’t upset by it

Well if memory serves you’re a reactionary concern troll anyways so I guess that getting people upset is kind of your MO. Sorry to disappoint.
Every ticket I’ve ever put in has gotten a response within a couple days and I don’t feel sorry for people who “fudge” around and are surprised to find out, so I’ll continue to not care.
