    Whenever I wear my white-dyed Black Hand Robes I am jokingly (though a bit seriously sometimes too) told by friends it'd be best to take them off because I'll probably get banned now on PS4 NA.

    I am one of the least politically correct people I know and wouldn't be able to walk around in game dressed like that without feeling like scum.

    Imagine if I used the Malacath's Wrathful Flame momento while in Craglorn and wearing my robe. I would face a very real chance of loosing my account. All it's take is one dude recording a short vid, sending it in, and saying it reminded him of the past event.

    If there's a terrorist attack in a city and a global social chain-reaction afterwards then maybe wearing almost identical clothes and style as the aggresors the very next day isn't the best idea? Or is it? Outfit is indirect way of social communication and attribution, and while it is utterly subjective, you can't prevent it from happening.

    So, yes, true. Doing so might be the case, whether we agree or not.

    They were very good and famous players of Ps4 NA.

    When you become good and famous in your server you will always hundreds of people who hates you, so they did it and all the people that have been getting destroyed by them in PvP started reporting them and they asked entire guilds to report them and they finally got banned.

    To be honest with you I don't care, I mean I don't know them and I don't even play in NA but it hurts my heart to see Zenimax throwing perma bans at people just because they were messing around, yeah I know it wasn't the best joke ever but come on it's a video game, people using cheat engine, exploiting vMol glitches, exploiting gold mats and all that stuff don't even get banned and if they do get banned they receive a 3 days ban, I just find it ridiculous, they should've banned them for a week.

    Seems like any time a bunch of idiot youths do something blatantly racist these days, "it's a joke" and "they shouldn't be punished so hard" .

    Just saying...

    I won't go into specifics or name ppl. Despite what these players did or what stance you take based on their situation, what you've said here is exactly what happened. They had a lot of haters, especially because they maintained rank #1 leaderboards since Vet trials were introduced.

    [...]

    It's just sad overall how this toxicity has infected the endgame PvE crowd now. Hurts the already small community a bit when such big figures leave, as all of them helped progression runs often and were part of the theoretical 0.1%. With Morrowind looking to really hurt endgame PvE.... idk. It all just sucks :(

    This just reads to me that way, sorry. They just were banned because they were #1 on leaderboards. Nothing else.

    Good to know. I'll try to keep myself off the leaderboard then.

    I meant that @Vaoh s comments I quoted could be interpreted in the way I stated. Nobody's getting bans for #1 leaderboard spots - yet ;)

    you're gonna start of chain of replies that tag me! -_-

    If it happens you will def join @Feanor ;)

    Also I'm pretty sure if you use CE, conquer the leaderboards, and then ask nicely they'll repeal the ban but let you keep the score :lol:

    Maybe get a name change and dye your wedding dress or stop using it, just to be on the safe side.

    You never know what whims ZOS happens to have when looking at your 'case'.

    @Majeure

    The groups in question clearly went well beyond wearing a white wedding dress. It was, at the very least, stupid college age humor but on a subject that is good that Zos will not tolerate.

    The bans were a good move on Zos' part.

    Sorry are you saying that if I go out on to the streets and do something similar that I could use it's a joke as a defense , people have to know that with actions come consequences

    What? Absolutely not. You're calling me scum for coloring my robe WHITE?? I'd think those reporting me for simply wearing a white-colored robe are scum.

    The bolded part - Just because you say it, does not make it true.

    It is rare to find a better example of this.
