Account Suspended
The first is usually just a forced renaming. iirc, no suspension unless it was really bad. It’s the subsequent non TOS names that earn the suspension. You got the first rename, chose a non TOS name (you admit you rebelled) and so you gained a time out.
They won’t remove the suspension. If they did that for some people and not others, there would be claims of favoritism. Also, some people need the full suspension to understand that ANet is serious about this. Otherwise they would continue to make bad names with the expectation that they will get a slap on the wrist and a warning.
I’m afraid you will just have to wait the suspension out.

This is correct. You had your “one time leniency” and abused it with an offensive rename. There’s nothing to do but serve the time and, in the future, remember to choose wisely.
