I haven't even found out what was this case of harassment square says i did, but the e-mail said "24 hours starting from 0:00 till the next day" and given this was on the 21st, "00:00" was midnight (22nd) in GMT lasting till the next day (23rd @ 0:00 GMT).
It's now 1:00 GMT and my account is still suspended.
EDIT: Nvm, just looked into it, it runs on PDT...I'm still going to get to the bottom of this suspension though, 40 hours with no warnings or details on what I did wrong is beyond retarded.
Alleged 24 hour ban has taken longer than 24 hours.

The fact you've used the word 'retarded' on a public platform might indicate that you are not aware of how inappropriate your actions may be.

07-23-2017, 10:58 AMFrankMKActually its a pretty standard in any casual vocabulary, and considering the severity of the situation my use of it should have been the least of your concerns. Never met anyone from Unicorn...kinda sucks that the first one turned out to be out for trigger baits.Quote:

As someone that has worked and studied in the disability sector, I find it very sad that you think the word 'retarded' is part of any 'casual vocabulary' it further just proves my point, you're unaware of your actions.

While the word "retarded" isn't one that falls under the category of harassment/hate crime/discrimination in this case, since it wasn't directly thrown at somebody, it does fall under the category of being very in polite/rude and the forum admins might give you a warning for that. However, if you believe that in your actual case of an in game/forum ban, that has been issued towards you, there's some kind of misunderstanding or/and wrong doing, you can open a support ticket, and have them explain the reasoning. In most cases tho, the email that was sent to you, should have a reasoning in it, besides the line "banned for harassment". Normally it quotes the in game as well as the forum misbehavior, and the action taken against you. But if that's not the case, again open a support ticket and have them figure it out, be prepared that an unscripted answer can take up to 72 hours. GL

You might wanna edit that as well, some people might not see the "" and report you over that, would get another warning/penalty added lol
