Banned Account, In What Form?

http://forum.iahgames.com/ge/showthread.php?p=3

The link above is all about abiding rules and regulations in the GE forums which is applicable in game as well...

There are certain issues that quoted as "Banned Account" when rules is not followed, certain sanctions are executed. It is not new to us most specially to the pioneers co'z even in a simple rule of law we follow. If ain't not, we make it a point to do something to reverse the situation.

As I was saying, banned account obviously has it's duration whether it's temporary or a lifetime. But have you ever wondered it's classification? What I want to point out is this, banned account doesn't mean you can't play the game but there are certain part of the game like in the forums that you can't use.

A sample of this is like you can't send private message to the moderators on the forums or the community manager and all the officials running the thread and most of the time, your account can't log in to the forums and post to the thread obviously...

But as it is shared to me momentarily, I didn't expect that you can be banned through your "broad in game?" Yah, your right, well, I wasn't shocked at all in the first place but the thing here is, how does this thing be categorized anyway?

How does it apply? Well, a big question mark for me co'z i don't really know how can this be without any word from the player or warning. Even explanation in their emails and stuff and tell the details of it. Well for me, it's a fresh news that triggered my Intellect (If I do have!lol) how long does it gonna take for the player to broad again? After sending the ticket for the complains? Well, I clearly don't know yet but the actions must be taken.

I'm not the rightful judge to tell what's gonna happen after a couple of days to the concerned player. However, I know there must be a reason out of this co'z it won't happen if there is no guidelines to be applied, To all the players, please be aware of what you broad co'z we don't know how does the moderator react on this. On the other hand, I know they are doing this for the good of the game but hope they can explain or give a notice to the player what offense they done so no questions and rants running about...

This is just one of the million complains about the "Ban" thing, but for sure everybody can make out of this on both players and the people concerned. Play rough and tough, enjoy!^^,

I think they're basing the 'undeserving ban' according to this rule:

5) Harassment / Flaming
This includes both clear and implied language and/or links to websites containing such language or images which:
- Insult other characters, guilds, players, IAH employees, or groups of people
- Result in ongoing harassment to other characters, guilds, players, IAH employees, or groups of people
- Make non-constructive criticisms and/or insults about the game or IAH
If a player is found to have participated in such actions, he/she will be:
- Temporarily or permanently banned from the forum, depending upon severity


...Sad ain't it? *Huff. Walks away and works instead*

@ lady 'k

here's the problem kasi, as you can see in Blacksword's blog post:

the banned player was simply asking questions about distribution of GE. how can that be construed as harassment, right?
