    Thanks for the info, but that was consistent. I, personally, only need gold in this game to train enchanting, and wouldn't buy it for REAL money, I neither have the money, the trust or the need for it the Gold$ellers, not even to mention they are extremely annoying with that "Enimax daily newsletter" they send me twice everyday...

    Every gold buyer getting banned makes me warm and fuzzy inside.
    Cheaters should be banned.

    I would have thought that it would be rather obvious that they would do that.

    This is why I keep a low profile in game. Someone was asking me to report a bunch of people in a dungeon for botting, I told him to get stuffed.

    I dont report anyone, lest ZOS CS staff get confused and mistake ME for the one who did something wrong. Yes this does happen.

    I dont talk in zone chat. Whats the point? If you say something someone doesnt like, they can right click your name and report you for no reason. Maybe theres a small chance you'll get banned. But honestly why take the risk?

    At this point with their heavy handedness in dealing out suspensions and bans. Its best just to play solo and shut up I think.

    Most other MMOs take an unwritten policy to ban the sellers and not the buyers. This game is still early/young enough that they can expect most buyers to just buy new accounts. Also, getting all the duped gold from the bank glitch out of the economy is needed due to how egregious the offenders have been.

    I have same issue since yesterday (ie. being kicked and banned), I`ve TRIED several times to contact with someone (even tried to phone them, but they aren't responding for tickets and provide no numer).

    Well for me it happened when falling to death on "the final assault" quest - when trying to light that brazier in library...

    i also got you are suspended from the side???
    i was flying in the sky relog and got that mesage
    send a ticket and the responce is you are pernametly baned for goldspamning
    sorry for my englis

    Sounds to me like you were permanently banned for Gold Spamming. I'm very happy they are doing these bans!

    On the other hand, if you are innocent, which you guys almost never are, then appeal.

    Seriously, not necessary. Sadly, your bitter and unjustified opinion is how their Customer Service is as well. LOTS of players are getting accidentally banned by their automated software. For all we know George Smith, you are a gold seller and power leveler from China who used the duping exploit to make millions of gold.

    When it takes several emails to Customer Service, then a very sharply worded email demanding the contact information of the Department Head to even have your case moved to Appeals, something is wrong.

    The email I got from Customer Service after correctly filling out the Support form said, Yeah, your account was banned. Warmest Regards.

    That was it, no reason, no time, no info on who to talk to, NOTHING. That is unacceptable.

    If I see you posting on this page anymore George Smith, trolling and basically accusing players seeking assistance of being gold spammers and hackers I will report you for trolling and hateful speech against other players. You add nothing to this thread and have no reason to post on it. You are a hate filled worthless waste of post.

    Holy Smoke! I bought this game yesterday and got banned after 2 hours play. Now they accusing me of being a goldseller. What a reception. This really feels like a scam.
  • templar_von_midgard
    Still no response... ZOS so something, contact me, write an email, just DO SOMETHING!

    Same... was minding my own business playing yesterday AM and got banned for no known reason. Let's be honest here, if they have a ban process/policy it's not public knowledge AND apparently they can't tell us WHY we're banned. I haven't duped, nor have I botted - Zenimax made a mistake plain and simple.

    In their knee-jerk reaction to deal with the whole duping issue they decided to cast a wide net which means they banned dupers, botters and a certain percentage of normal players which they deem acceptable. If they're OK with punishing players that had nothing to do with the dupe - That tells me that they cannot truly identify every player that took part in it.

    Overall, this experience has left me with a very bad taste in my mouth and showed they don't have the administrative know-how/ ability to manage this type of issue... Seriously, if I duped - why am i running around in green gear? Zenimax, use a little common sense.

    Don't seven get me started on their lack of communication...

    I sent a total of 4 tickets in before getting a response just this morning and they said that I shouldn't have been banned, but my account won't be off the list until possibly 4pm EST today. So incorrectly banned for two days because of Zenimax's inability to properly assess accounts.

    Nice job Zenimax.../sarcasm off

    EDIT (BTW - was doing the exact same quest Templar was when I got the boot. If anything, Zenimax should pay me to play that buggy ass quest)

    I think my biggest *** of with the whole thing is I've missed 3-4 research on my blacksmith lol. I think they should be comping us all innocent people some how. I wouldn't ask if it was server wide, but this is just pathetic at this point.

    Glad to see, that you've at least got a response, I just sent in my third ticket, but still haven't got a single piece of notification, other than the numbers they give out for tickets...

    I wonder if this is caused by the related post where gold sellers are able to spoof other account names .... IE. when you click to report a gold seller the wrong account name is in the report. If so....then all i can say is..... o_0 HAHAHAHA nice job devs!

    Actually in lotro and other games, as a buyer you get one warning saying hey, what you did is wrong, the second time you do it, bye bye.

    Boting is pretty easy to detect , so complainers if you got hit with a ban for boting well that too bad for you , but the ban probly got excuted for a reason so , i saw 2 Groups of bots in the same public dungeon yester day and the day before that and its pretty easy to detect them , so im happy thease bots gettting removed , just wish it will be done faster to get the game more clean !

    Totally false, those who were kicked here were in an area where there is NOTHING beneficial for botting, we were in an endgame QUEST ONLY area, Molag Bal's library on Coldharbour. Just to clarify: There are no mobs in there, no containers, no material nodes, there are two types of activate-able quest items, a dozen of NPCs, a deathly pit and some STATIC bookshelves....
