OFC Anet are on the case of gold spammers .. why wouldn’t they be when there is a cash shop in game ?
Powerlevelers ? I assume you mean people advertising game services… again ofc Anet are on the case of those people advertising in game …. why wouldn’t they be ?
I have personally seen advertising over a couple of days .. it has hardly been rife …
Actually suspending players is a bad choice … he did nothing wrong .. hes a customer … why not employ people that can read and comprehend their customers instead of blaming him for making a “poor choice” ?
The simple fact is the policy is affecting real players so it isnt working to retain business, it is working against it.
players are hitting limits that are unreasonable and if one player can mail 100g but another stuggle with some copper .. there is a problem…you either carry on ignoring it or you do something about it.
Well….personally i am one for a laissez faire mmo policing policy but I am in the minority and things are going the other way.
So yes you were “griefed” because you couldn’t be bothered to put your character in a safe place and are then hit with a ban stick for talking.
If you kicked off extensively .. well two wrongs dont make a right ..
Also like it or lump it the code of conduct is clear that they wont revisit 3 day day suspensions so you are wasting your time and theirs. Pay them back by not spending some cash in that cash shop…
It has all been worked out by a boffin that suspend players for mindlessly simplistic – my mother’s a 17th century puritan of below average intelligence type reasons and this results in a X% increase in sales.
so there you go .. the game is designed for 12 year old’s to play and we all have to behave like well mannered and only interested in talking about things that interest the average 12 year old … or else we get suspended because hey they are offended.
If you wont intercede in “Gentlemen’s Agreements” why cant you simply remove the no scamming rule from the Code of Conduct.
Then people can scam to their hearts content and we can have a far more vibrant game where we dont just reward a sterile game play style ?
If you can check up chat logs for the numerous reports you must get from players trying to get other players into trouble for talking – you can surely pull up the chat logs for alleged scams and see what was actually said ……
