Ban Times?

[Desecret]

But if that argument sounds violent or that sexual gesture is lewd, you do have the right to call the police. And there may be laws against it so the police have the right to tell you to go home, give you a citation, or arrest you based on the circumstances.

I suggest doing inappropriate emotes somewhere secluded if you don't want a public reaction.

Sure it would be public indecency, however I did not think I would cross the line into harassment when no one was getting harassed. And my friend also copped a ban for the same reason.

You think performing sexual gestures in public is acceptable? You might want to think again. Based on a recorded GM interaction I have seen, you are free to do so somewhere where you are not going to annoy others, but not in the crowd.

And nope, we cannot help you with your ban time, we cannot know it. My guess is 72 hours + a review for a permanent ban.

This isn't the 1800's where everything is repressed. Sexual gestures includes kissing, a sociable accepted way of displaying affection.
But that's not what I got banned for, I got banned for harassment. Wheres the harassment when it was a mutual and used as a joke to enjoy the game?

You offended someone in the area (which led to the ban) so its clearly wrong. Whispers/Guild chat might be a better place for it.
As for the time of the ban, i'm hoping its only 24 hours, its strange to list the minimum time and not the maximum time.

Thank you. It's sad how people get offended by the smallest things. But I wish SE would put the maximum time instead of minimum time; since I believe minimum time could mean weeks

Not everyone is the same. What is not offensive to one person may be offensive to another. A great life lesson to learn, especially so on a video game rather, say, a place of employment.

A ban can be 24 hours,3 days, 7 days, a week, two weeks to permanent.

they should have sent an email with the ban time amount...

I hear what you're saying op. Unfortunately in todays' gaming times anything that is said in say, shout etc.. is not only read by everyone but even if it doesn't concern them, people will throw in a word or comment and of course you will have the few that are aggressive by nature and act on things even if it is not their business to do so. Your comment might infact be quite harsh to many including me so it might be safer to /tell.

My advice, if you're going to say something to your friends, i suggest you do it in a tell.

Of course you can ignore my advice and do as you please since you are free and it is your choice in the end but if so then be prepared for stuff like this.

Hope your suspension gets lifted soon.

Peace out

I used to see an emote "such and such starts masturbating wildly in the corner".
Not something i want to see.

It's an emote for crying out loud. You're not actually seeing someone perform the act. Are you really that offended by the idea?

People can be ridiculously fussy.
