    You can't get banned for being afk. I'm regularly afk for periods of over an hour, and so are many people. Something isn't right. There needs to be an official response to this.

    Yep, and another response from the OP would be nice, he hasn't responded to a lot of questions that may resolve the matter.

    Well you can if you are botting while afk. I see tons of that. Not sure if that's what was going on but if he had a bot program running his char, he still would technically been afk, had the afk symbol and could have gotten a ban. idk but that's the only reason for afk banning I can see. Maybe that's what the support person meant?

    No, there really doesn't need to be. If you read the fine print when you signed up, they can actually ban you for any reason they want. We all agreed to that.

    Moreover, I'm sure the OP knows exactly why he got banned and just isn't sharing that with us. Whole thing reeks of false outrage. Him threatening legal action was good for a laugh though.

    They can't ban you for anything. You can only get banned for violating the rules outlined in that fine print, and being afk was not one of them. Someone else mentioned earlier this thread he may of been botting, but since I don't know that I'm not going to throw accusations. As for the second part I don't know what to think. I do agree that there seems to be something more to it, possibly some info he is keeping out, or he really is clueless as to why.
