Simple question concerning bans

[Anarchist]

So recently there was that mass murder thing concerning plat farming. I am curious to know one thing though:
If i got banned and come back playing new toon, new device and someone sees me and go report to sts, i will get banned again or i won't get banned cause i started afresh?

From what i understood when you get banned you cant use sts products by any means....not sure though. Can anyone shed some light here?


Ps: i am not discussing the ban of a third person just wanna know the mechanics behind it.

I think they block your ip, so you can't do that

[mightymynk]

Yup they block ur ip and device nd email bt if u start all fresh i dnt thnk u shd be ban until u do smthng wrng again even if sm1 reported u coz u r whole new and how cm sm1 cn surely say u r same old person

Someone once told me while i was banned from forum creating a new forum account to still comment could worsen my situation, even asking people to post on my behalf was not allowed he said.
So i always thought when one gets banned its forever, ever so if you come back even on a new account its not allowed.
Right or wrong?

Yea, on forums you can't come back, or you will just be perma banned, or even ip blocked

[Anarchist]

But ingame you can?

You can't, but who's gonna figure it out. I've noticed people who have come back

Technically, if you're banned, it's so you can't ever return to the game. But unless spacetime makes people log in via fingerprints, it's hard to keep troubling people from coming back by starting on a completely new set of information.

That is correct, you may not create a new forums account or get someone else to post on your behalf. As for having an alternative, existing forums account - that I am not sure about.

However, for your question...it's a case by case basis. I've seen in some cases where the developers know but they do not care enough. However, in others, they will absolutely not let a player back into the game.

That's interesting.

Are ya going to be banned?

I have seen several toons in game I suspect are banned folks but I have no way of proving it. In all cases the toons are low kill 41s with rings, arcane pets and arcane/mythic weapons. Plus in some cases the toon names are almost taunting in nature.

Sure a few could be alts but I have seen a lot of these toons since the purge.

Ultimately if you refresh everything and don't tell who you are and play clean from now on I doubt you would have an issue.

Sts doesn't discuss bans.

My friend got the 14 day ban and he told me all his items wete taken out. So now he has to start fresh. I dont think you would get banned on a new, fresh account since you would have ti start from scratch and theres no way to plat farm anymore anyway.

[Legallyblonde]

I hope not. If someone did something bad enough to get IP Banned they don't deserve to even be playing this game.

Divine Judgement-
NO OBJECTIONS!

Always wanted to say that.

Not always true, they seem to review cases and the actual IP ban cases I've seen really put in a lot of effort to push across the line, from "mischievous misfit" over to "seriously disturbed and remorseless" (really funny if u know these people are harmless irl but probably rather scary if u're staff). People stepping forward to appeal on your behalf apparently makes it worse, even if they did it of their own accord. Especially if it generates negative publicity. Forum and game bans appear somewhat separate. Run it through them before coming back to the game. They make no promises but at least it'll help set your expectations right. wkwkwk. ;>

Long time no see ^^

one simple way is that you dont tell others you were banned, old sport. But i guess it is reasonable that they ban u again
