Subject: 3 Day ban for this?
   This is a guild on Darkspear named <Grim #@!&rs> We had a discussion in general chat about how #@!& isnt funny. Saying that it wouldnt be cool to have your wife #@!&d, or to have your kids #@!&d, and then the GM of the guild says to me personally in General chat "How about i #@!& you?" And in a jokingly self defense i say "I like being #@!&d" the GM said that i was harassing the GM who threatened to #@!& me. How is this considered harassment and a 3 day ban?

Account Action: 72 Hour Suspension

Offense: Obscene/Vulgar
This category includes both clear and masked language which:

* Is crude and offensive in nature
* Is an inappropriate reference to human anatomy or bodily functions
* Is pornographic in nature

If a player is found to have used such language, he/she may:

* Be given a warning

Details (Note - Times are listed in Greenwich Mean Time, GMT):
8/6/2006 18:07 ******* LookingForGroup "i
like being #@!&d"

It says i should be given a warning not a ban in the email itself.


Is this really a reason to ban someone? to defend them self when someone threatens to #@!& them? I think the GM needs to either read over the entire conversation or atleast understand the context of what is being said.

I did not get the 3 day ban on this account and i already sent in an email to wowaccountadmin@blizzard.com. But this is complete BS.

   We do not condone the use of profane language in World of Warcraft under any circumstances, Toroc. Although the use of obscene/vulgar language may only result in a warning for the first offense, the penalty that you received is based on antecedent offenses. More information about account penalties can be found here:

Any disputes over action that has been taken against your account need to be dealt with through our Account Administration Department. The Game Master staff here on the Customer Service Forum will not be able to provide you with any further assistance in this matter.
