So very recently I’ve got kicked out of the game saying my account has been suspended. When I tried to log back in it told me that I have in fact been banned for 72 hours for breaking the terms of conduct.
So wait… what did I exactly do?
I kind of have an idea of what that might have been what people thought would be worth a ban but if it is what I’m thinking then it’s just totally silly.

Anyways I at least want to know the reason why I got banned. Isn’t that the point of punishment? So I know what I did wrong and I won’t do it again? :P

Sadly I can not think of anything that would be worth a ban unless my awful pun with the p version of a baby cat actually counts as a swear word (which by the way shouldn’t be a reason to ban since there’s a maturity filter).

Can I get any response to this and also I got banned 10 minutes before I could actually get the dragon achievment thingie which will go away way before I get unbanned, so if this was for no reason I am rightfully disappointed.

As stated many times in the forum: that filter is not a licence to swear Lots of players turned it off because it also blocks normal words for their native language.

You honestly don’t remember what you said? Try about four hours ago. Multiple instances of cursing — I count five in a matter of a minute, all starting with the letter “F.”

The filter is not a license to swear. And with your lack of self-discipline, you’ll need to serve the three-day timeout. In the future, please: choose wisely.
