Wrongfully banned. Need help

[gotaname1]

What I find interesting is they seem so quick to respond to bad language and RP stuff, but people have been harassed for months and RMT traders up in the pF for months and they do nothing.

Hey yeah, that is kinda sus....*puts on tinfoil hat*

Sigh...

Or as common sense would have it, it's a lot easier to verify bad language and ERP related reports than it is to assert RMT and varying degrees of what is considered harassment that doesn't involve bad language.

Sigh, players should be instantly told why they're sent to jail even if it's vague reasoning. It wouldn't be difficult for SE to put it in a dialogue box that appears when they enter the area so that players have -some idea- as to why they're there. Many players have ended up there having no clue what the place even is, and then have to wait for ages for a GM to explain what happened.

And as others said be mindful when you speak with people you don't know. For example you can end up in jail for dropping a F bomb even if you didn't say it with the intent to hurt or anger anyone. SE only care that you dropped the F bomb, not why.

They should have specific jails for whatever rule on the ToS your broke, which just has a "Section X.Y Jail" written on the wall, then people can look up what section they violated, and have some sort of understanding of why they are there(at least in theory)

Why do they keep throwing these to general discussion? As punishment?

No, because they aren't client technical issues. The tech support forum is only for, wait for it, actual technical issues. Not account support.

I was joking. I just think it’s funny they keep being like “not a technical problem” and instead of closing the thread they just send them to the least helpful section of the forums so people can just tsk them for being naughty and then snowball the conversation so eventually it’s some obtuse conversation about morality.

That's funny because I was thinking the same. Given they said: "Good luck with your adventures through Eorzea!" Seems kind of pointless considering their luck has just run out.

I do love how instantaneously all hell broke loose the very post after it was moved.

Here's the thing. That they keep having to transfer these threads from the technical issues forums shows that the experience of being sent to jail can appear as if the game is malfunctioning. Your character is teleported to the location without your control, you can't leave, you're not told what the place is, why you're there, and you often have to wait a long time before a GM comes along and tells you what is happening. It's not surprising that many players think something is bugged. No where in the game are you told that the jail even exists. I was max lvl in HW before I even found out the jail was a thing, and I only did because of a post in reddit.

How can you say you’ve been wrongfully banned, but also say you don’t know why you’re there?
