I'm in GM jail, no email from square enix and no GM. Ive placed multiple gm calls - no answer. Is there anyone from GM staff that can let me know what's going on?

Listen to my words, lost Eorzean. For I am the embodiment of section 3.3. Accept that section 3.3 is absolute, and you shall never be cast into the gaol ever again!
I'm starting to feel jaded by all you people getting into gaol content when I'm not. :( /s
As long as you idle around in gaol someone will eventually get to you.
You know exactly why. :)
You existed at someone at a bad time and they didn't like it.
GM’s seem to be on fire lately. Just be cool to people.
A lot of people have been getting in trouble recently...
What if I'm next..?
I'll put some gil in your commissary.
Goal is not a bad place. Enjoy your stay the lighting is cool.
1. Don't talk to strangers unless you are polite and professional and/or robotic, and keep your profanity in Discord chat 2. Don't deliberately toe the line with PF advertisements for RP venues that are catering to 18+ even if they don't explicitly say it 3. Don't stalk or harass people
Just play the game, and if you ever are in doubt whether a behavior is allowed, err on the side of caution.
Lot of people are poking the hornets nest and then crying when they get stung.
We need to get us a megathread for GM jail interactions too. Or something like that.
Eh, I still joke around a bit in game and have yet to be reported. It's never anything inappropriate or report worthy though. If anything like that is ever said, it is within a small circle of friends or to myself outside of the game....usually the latter more often than the former.
“I have a suggestion on your job if you’re up for hearing it.”
It’s not hard, honestly.
There should be a sign in the center of the room, like a Legend of Zelda sign, and it reads what you did. . . Cheeky and helpful lol. One of the dialog options is to ring the bell hanging from one side of it, which puts in a queue call for a GM.
If you /slap the sign it'll turn into a dummy target :3.
Maybe a table with a cup of tea and a sign saying "Wait"
Hmm, no, make it a savage mode boss you need to solo. Down it and you get a free pass, dirt nap and you are banned for double the requisite period. The boss can telegraph it's attacks with what you did. (maybe in Japanese)
If you cussed, a giant poop meteor starts to fall with just one little fragile hide-behind-rock on the other side of the arena with totroak slowing-slime on the floor.
If you ERPed, you are attacked by a swarm of raid-level leather-daddy adds in 2B pants and bunny ears.
If you were an idiot in PVP a mirror of you spawns with double your DPS.
And... If you are MPK you need to complete 1,000,000 spout dungeons.
and so on.
If you simply talk to people in this game you go to jail.
posts like these pop up because they were caught an now trying to appeal for sympathy from the masses. "I never do anything wrong, oh woe is me, how evul SE is, amirite peeple?????" "I may curse a bit, but its an accident, I swear, it just happened that I accidentally type in all those words and hit enter!!"
this is a day and age where people generally refuse accept responsibility. also, the GM's arent going to visit the forums, so its fairly safe to say how innocent you were and how wrong the system is. thats why there are so many comments like this, because usually, the GMs dont come here and present their side and why the person is in gaol. not because it wasnt warranted, but because they likely have more things on their plate.
I've played this game since ARR early access and have never once been put in a gaol or disciplined in any way. I talk in chat all the time, mostly in duties. Sometimes I even get irritated because yes I do have to explain for the 4th time in this one fight that they need to keep the bosses apart. Yet nothing has ever happened to me. One person even sent a screenshot proving they reported me. And yet, nothing.
People who get put in gaol break rules in some way. Surprisingly, it's actually pretty easy to not break the rules. Reading them is a start, and know what you are and aren't allowed to do. Don't use widespread ignorance to fuel some "talk, get banned" bogeyman.
Fixed it for you.
Square doesn't ban you for talking. Heck, square doesn't even ban you for harassing. You can be quite aggressive, publicly, for months on end without the gm's doing a single thing to try and stop the harassment and slander.
And yet, if you DARE say the F word around somebody, 3 day.
That’s not entirely accurate either. I genuinely have no idea what their criteria is because there’s someone I see at hunts who regularly ,not just drops f bombs, but aims them at people in /shout. I obviously can’t repeat what he says but imagine ableist slurs, racial slurs, misogynistic comments, always preceded with an effing. I’ve reported him and seemingly no punishment. He’s on every day so wasn’t suspended and he still swears and harasses people so unlikely he even got a warning if he’s not corrected his behaviour over the course of a year.
There’s definitely something shady behind the privacy policy.
