Change to the ban system.

What an absolute train wreck of a thread. Lahabrea will be pleased if I present this to him. Glorious chaos all in preparation for the return of the one true God.

How can you control something you have no control over? That's like asking a man with turrets syndrome to stop acting weird. It's mental heath and you have no way of controlling that. Addicts have impulses so why can't they stop? It wouldn't be called an impulse if you could just stop and control your actions.

This is why we younger people get called snowflakes. People are quick to give up their agency when it suits them instead of accepting the consequences of their choices. The fault always lies on someone else, or when that fails, on an inexplicable quirk of the mind.

It would be a nice way to reward someone who is trying to improve their behavior.

The time to reward someone for good behavior is when they are growing up and still learning and testing social boundaries. Coddling adults like this is harmful, because it delays the lesson that real life doesn't always give you a second chance.

You want to know what each report for me was?
First time ever was due to a drg telling me "I don't know how to play drg so I shouldn't talk" That is the response I was given when asking him to please doom spike the 14 mob pull the tank was doing. After he said that I threaten to kick him from the dungeon.
Second time being ban was from a thordan ex farm party 7/8 static members and we had picked up 1 random. This random was on smn and our healers where struggling to keep up due to the aoe damage and we needed a dead member to be raised and when asked to help, he responded with "stfu, no my problem" after that I same "SMD" and then we kicked him. Later that night I got a ban. Third time I was ban was due to me just being a rude MF and was deserved and that was my first time ever being ban, I learn my lesson to not be one of the many toxic players that day. Each time I've been ban after that 1 time has been me retaliating in a poor manner and it's just an impulse I have and it's not something I can control as you can see with my final ban just around the corner. The latest report I had was due to me telling off a guy for being toxic to the tank because he didn't position the boss in the most perfect position. I'm being treated like a monster right now, like everyone attacking me and telling me it's my fault for being so bad. All I'm doing is trying to be nice and I'm met with so much toxic and rudeness each time and it caused me to lose my cool.

If someone telling you not to instruct them how to play the game so easily sets you off then your issues are more sevre then your admitting to yourself. Its time to leave the game and get your issues worked out not keep playing and asking for changes cause you have no self control. Impulse control or not you are responsible for any and all actions you take in game, so take responbility for yourself get treatment if its so hard for you too not respond to negativity..

I didn't even get halfway through the first page before realizing how this was going to go down. OP, while I do sympathize if you do have a mental illness of some kind, the rules are there in place for a reason and they shouldn't be bent for any one person because that would set a pretty bad predicament. If you've been hit with suspension before and the problems continue, perhaps FFXIV is not the game for you. The point is that this is supposed to create a comfortable environment for everybody, not just the one player who feels that the rules should be adjusted for them. Again, having only read through only half of the first page, while I sympathize about mental illness, I cannot sympathize about asking for some kind of exemption to the rule about suspensions and bans.

If you have such a hard time controlling your impulses online, and you've been warned about it before and it continues to happen, then I'll be plain and blunt - FFXIV is not the game for you, and you honestly would need to start seeking professional help to assist you in getting that under control before you come back into an online gaming environment. That's just my two cents on the matter.

Also: please note that you've probably just put this account on notice as well, so if you can't control yourself, you run the risk of having both this account and your main terminated if the GMs link the two together. tldr: Either work on getting the help you need or you'll just be banned.

Rule violations are per account only they do not carry over to new accounts. So her new account is safe until she screws up on it which from the sound of it she eventaully will.

If her main account is banned, however, this one could be seen as a way to attempt to circumvent said ban. Which would also be bannable.

If her main account was already banned and she started this one it would still be ban circumventing. Players with multiple accounts would also be ban circumventing by what your saying and SE would have to ban all their accounts rather then just the one that commited the violations.

Doubtful they'd do it because of the $$$ involved but ultimately they should? I mean it's not any character that performed the violation, it's the person playing that character, and therefore they're the ones who should be removed from the game, as they're likely to repeat similar violations on all their accounts.

Should but will it ever happen not likely.

I never said otherwise?

I mean, they should? They were the ones who committed enough infractions to ban one account. Why should their other accounts be immune to similar punishment?


Not sure what you're actually trying to say with this response to me.

Ah, then I guess I'm just doomed. I'll just give up on everything then. Thank you all for giving me the eyes to see that not a single person cares. Have a wonderful life. Lesson learn for me. Never bother to try and speak out. Always be pushed down and stepped on and laughed at. Got it.
