Warning for "Grief" Tactics?!

[SturmChurro]

I am at a literal loss for words right now, because I received a warning DAYS ago now... for "grief" tactics. Excuse me? What? When the HECK did I participate in "grief" tactics, in fact I complain about griefers CONSTANTLY, but I am going to be hit with some warning for something I most certainly did NOT DO. I barely even chat in this game, and now my entire account will have this nasty mark on it, warning me for something I didn't know I did in the first place?!

I haven't logged into the game for like 4 days now, this makes absolutely no sense to me. Is this because I leave many dungeons I get into? Because I don't hardcast raise players? Because I try to focus on DPS uptime while juggling heals? Am I going to have to be paranoid about how I play the game now? Why doesn't my own game experience matter?

UNBELIEVABLE. I literally cannot believe this. I cannot think of a single instance of me doing this. I have yet to speak to a GM, or contact support, but I cannot have this nasty mark on my account for something I never did. Ridiculous. I log in to cap tomes and this is what I am greeted with.

I am sick and tired of many in this community whining about anything and everything, just because they don't get coddled or for some other apparent slight. SO sick of it, but I hadn't been hit by some idiotic warning before on my actual game account. If you want to enforce your TOS so strongly, maybe I will start reporting every single player everywhere who dares utter a curse word - can't beat them, then join them!

Or you could just appeal it, no?

I find it hard to believe that their accusations were entirely baseless, but GMs are human and therefore prone to making mistakes. Still, I am curious as to what led to this.

As am I. I don't chat. All I did this and the past week was afk in the gold saucer and queue for the weekly raids. I know for a fact I didn't intentionally grief anybody. That is something I would remember doing. I haven't logged in for several days.

Aside from raids... I did ONE dungeon this week that I had internet problems in, DC'ed I forgot to turn back on my tank stance, and got hounded for it in chat. I left it and logged off the game. I lost internet connection soon after. Maybe that?

If that was the case then the GMs didn't really look at the context.

I know I wasn't contacted, or rather they couldn't contact me since I didn't play, but this is unbelievable. Like, what the heck? I never griefed anybody, seriously. I didn't even CHAT in that dungeon or in pretty much anything else I have done recently.

Thinking on it, it had to be that dungeon, right? When you DC your character just stands in game for awhile, right? When I went to log in it did say my character was still logged in, and it was during a boss when I lost connection. I was dead when I logged back in. To think, I thought I was doing them a favor by leaving before it happened again so they could get a new tank.. Lol, if that is what got me some warning...

You need to think out your narrative better next time.
Tank Stance doesn't turn off when you log out, or when you die.
The only way for Tank Stance to drop in the middle of an instanced duty is for you to manually turn it off.

I respawned at the start. I did one single pull after. I guess I have a narrative now.

Why would I even bother mentioning that dungeon if I was trying to obfuscate. Ridiculous.

I have my tank stance bind close to another key I use for a defensive CD and a few days ago I turned it off without noticing at first, was an honest mistake. Even if SturmChurro turned it off something similar could have happen. Anyway, even if SturmChurro was an ass for whatever reason.... I don't know, the possibility to lose your account with so much time/money invested. I will get it if you go above and beyond of being an ass, like racist/bigot/wishing someone to die or worst. Having a bad day and a little bit of attitude... kick/block sounds enough.
