He's not a martyr. As he claimed, he was banned for a bad word. Sure it's petty, but it's most likely a few salty players reported his post for that word because they didn't agree with him, and now his post/s are deleted. I do hope that words like that are indeed against the rules and this is not an attempt at heavily policing the forums and removing anything negative. I also think it's not a good idea to derail this thread, we should try and keep it on track.

Russian here. This is pretty outrageous, the price has actually tripled. If it's not regulated by the end of my current subscription period I'm abandoning ship.

Completely unreasonable keeping in mind that WoW costs half that price and has actually warned people of the price increase beforehand.

What a way to annihilate an entire playerbase.

Swearing is actually against the games ToS.

Even his very reasonable posts with no swearing are gone, what a shame. That's why we gotta keep it civil, guys. Let's not give them reason to be silenced.

Question: do we need active days in the game in order to post in the forum?

Not quite. You can have an active sub and still not be able to login. Basically, if you don't login to the game for 14 days, you will be automatically logged out of the forums and niot allowed to log back in until the servers sync from your last login to say "Yes, they last logged in less than 14 days ago, let them on"

Got it, thanks you guys. Gonna be able to keep the subject up for a while, then... *wink wink*

I'm reading all this thread from the beginning...
I'll just tell that I came in the game with my best friend and had a really great time, we loved the world, characters, gameplay... But now with cancelled regional prices he can't afford to pay so much for the game that he loves, and I left alone and don't feel that I can continue to play without him.
And what's worse - we can't find the better alternative and now just can look at FFXIV like at a really beautiful and tasty cake that we can't touch.
I just really upset with this...

I really don't want to sound like a jerk, as I know it sucks a lot for those of you that may not be able to afford the sub anymore, but... Doesn't that mean that you were paying your sub way less than anyone else for a few years? SE determined a sub price, and you guys weren't paying it in full (according to the GM post). I feel like it is more a corrective move than a greedy one.
