What will get you banned from SWTOR? That’s a great question as we ease into the pre-launch and the eventual December 20th launch of the game. so5g
Some players are finding out that the ban-hammer just might be more sensitive than we thought.
It seems that there are some things that are auto-flagged as bannable offenses and many of them are integrated into the chat.
This on Reddit warns other players that the ban-o-meter is pretty sensitive in SWTOR right now (which might not be a bad thing, really):
“i was having a conversation in hutta about Aion, and the terrible time we had with RMT and botters. I said (and got an email ing it) “i just hope we don’t see aion-style spammers ala ‘W W W . B U Y T H I S’ its annoying!”
got an email saying I was permabanned for “Harassment – Advertising (mass or malicious)”
tuesday morning).
no help. finally cancelled my order before it was charged, going to reorder when the funds hit in 24 hours.
fair warning to other people, be extra careful when chatting. it was obviously a mistake (i’d rather have an overprotective bot/rmt guard, then a nonworking one like aion) and would get corrected, but the is being hammered right now.
be careful, see you in a week!
edit: will add my update here – finally ed . gave me a free month but could only make the ban a week-long one instead of permab&. thanks for all the nice comments! :D”
So while it seems that time enjoying the game!
