I was suspended for 72 hours probably because i was threating people in map chat in wvw. Only offensive word i was using was “noobs”. Is it really so bad thing that you can mark my account for inappropriate language usage?

If you were threatening people, as you yourself admit, then perhaps you were suspended for harassing or abusing others. Which would be an inappropriate form of speech. Hopefully, this will be a lesson learned.

Yes, i said something like “It is fault of you all, noobs that we lost that tower no matter follow you commander or not”. And after that i said something like “You don’t need more manpower, but some brain infusion”. Pretty funny that i was suspended for that

Well, actualy i do not see my errors since i was thinking “noobs” is not enough reason for suspension and i was never using any offensive words except that one. If you say that i can be suspeneded for that i try to avoid to use that word in future. :P
And if you mean my error was that i made ppl upset on me and was suspended for that can i report everyone else who reported me too to suspend them too because they do make me upset too?

Hi Andrew,

First let me explain how the suspension system works. Someone can always report you. Constantly making false reports is against the rules, but Anet is afaik carefull to punish people to do so cause they want to encourage people as much as they can to use the report system. Each and every report is reviewed by a GM. He/she will look up what you actually said and he/she decided if it was offensive or not and if you need a time out of the game.

This process of reviewing can take time. So often people think that the last thing they said is the thing that got them suspended, but it can easily be something you said two days ago.

If you want to know what it was that got you suspended you can always make a support ticket. It takes them 72 hours max to respond. If you, after knowing the reason, still disagrees with the course of action you can ask for an appeal in the ticket. It is a good thing each and every suspension is handled by a GM, but they are human beings and can make mistakes.

Very often people say that 72 hours means the ban is lifted anyways, so there is no use in asking. But it serves two very important purposes.
a: if your suspension was for good reason you then know what not to say in the future.
b: if it was a human error to suspend you, not only the remainder ofthe ban is lifted, but you also get a clean record. Suspension-times go up for second or third offenders, off course you should never break the rules, but having a clean record does help with future ‘misunderstandings’.

Well, are you sure this game is not rated EC(Early childhood)? Because it seems like that.

First off all, the word ‘noob’ is an insult. You know that, you used it as an insult with the goal to be insulting. So I do think you have issues if you think it is ok to use it.

However, I do not think that the word noob is against the policy. It is my opinion that, though insulting, it is as insulting as calling someone a donkey (cause you judge them to be not too intelligent) or a turtle (cause you judge them as being slow).

So either you said something else, you are either not telling here, or have forgotten you said it or the GM made a mistake. Best is to wait out the ticket till you get a response.

To clarify, you didn’t say ‘bag kitten’ but ‘bag -replacement word for prostitute-’
(needed to quote you to see what you actually wrote cause of the filter).

It might very well be the reason. The GM’s don’t look at context. the specific term thats also not allowed on the forum is offensive.

Still it is annoying… while -replacement word for prostitute- is strong insulting i don’t think “bag -replacement word for prostitute-” is. Of course it is my personal point of view, but i think GM’s should be more resistant for this kind of things. Anyway you realy think that sentence “bag -replacement word for prostitute-” could be reason for 72 hour suspension?

yip I do.
Keep in mind that though going to those kind of woman sound very manly and some men even boast about going there, in reality many of these woman are forced to do so. My own niece got under influence off a man who forced her to do that work and I see how it has wounded her soul for the rest of her life. For me personally it would not be a reason to report you for it, but I do understand that people would. Often perspective makes something insulting or not.

One of the hallmarks of growing up is that one does not feel the need to blame everyone else for a failure.
