How far would you be willing to go?

I would suddenly feel the need for a delicious caek. I would not eat said caek, instead, I would set a really complex trap around it. Then, I would challenge people to devise ways to reach it, and derive pleasure from their failures.
...Or I'd go out for a beer with friends. Either way.

1- What extraordinary action would you take?: Take an EMP bomb to the Guild Wars servers.
2- Instead of a Permanent Ban .... - A temporary ban.
3- As a bonus... PLEASE.... Set my heroes back to level 1, you know that will hurt me more than anything else because I love my heroes so much.
4- If I am allowed to come back, I will join and help a Pickup Group.
Or maybe just buy new copies of the game.

I wouldn't do anything.

I say no more.

I dont want to be a hijacker or troll here. The thread seems calm enough. But the whole 117 subject needs to go. What ever powers be or inspired by, this thread is bait and will bring up the situation again. I am asking for a closing of this thread quickly before it gets out of hand and just repeats the fodder the last thread had.

I would realize that if I got so worked up over being top dog in a video game in an online community to the point of being banned, I would probably take the hint, turn off the computer, suffer the sunlight, and learn what it means to live in the real world with real people.

If banned I'd send an email to support contesting it (because it'd almost certainly be illegitimate). If I got an inadequate response through normal channels, I would simply quit the game and advise others not to bother with it. Anet would get no further sales from me, and nothing but negative word of mouth. I don't care enough to do something extraordinary, it's a fun game but that's all it is. I don't deal with people that don't respect me, and if I got banned that's exactly how it would read to me.
Fortunately, since I'm not in the business of exploiting the game, there's not much threat of it. Exploiters should be banned, far more often than they are.

Having been banned a large number of times, my contribution to this won't be too exciting:
1. I'd send tickets. Like I always have.
2. Ban or no ban. No exceptions.
3. Again, leave me banned or unbanned. I shouldn't have to "earn" my unban.
4. Keep playing the game.

I wouldn't call for a thread to be closed where people were trying to present a case to Anet .. then start one similar to it.

I would buy a new account if I really wished to continue playing, or I would play something else.
I wouldn't attempt to invoke any type of mercy towards myself.
That would be developing a supposition that I had done no wrong.
I'd just live on and adapt.

1- What extraordinary action would you take?:Crawl through the Arena Net vent system until I get to head's office.
2- Instead of a Permanent Ban .... - Unban me with full access to the underworld/FoW/Deep/everywhere with all enemies non aggressive even if I attack them. Also I get all titles maxed on all characters I have.

3- As a bonus... PLEASE.... - I get all of the devs teams right hands cut off and pickled, because they stole from me my account.
4- If I am allowed to come back, I will ....... - Be extremely rich.
Now I want to be banned

That's okay then. I'd either sneakily buy another account until that got banned, if I really had to keep playing or just play another game.
There seem to be people on gwonline saying the bannings are Anet's way of forcing people to buy the game again in order to make more money. It would seem that is not the case.

1- What extraordinary action would you take?: Send a few e-mails asking why, and if they can't really do anything then it sure is a nice time to quit, with everything picking up.
2- Instead of a Permanent Ban .... - Suspension, I dunno lol
3- As a bonus... PLEASE.... - wut?
4- If I am allowed to come back, I will ....... - do whatever I want.

No idea what I would do, I hope I will never get into the situation.
But you can see how far people can go that got banned for a good reason, the infamous 117. In this thread they were in the state of denial, then they tried reasoning, then they questioned the duration of the band and whatever.
P.S.: The next banwave will be 4400.

Same thing I would do with GW i guess.
sterbenx2
Just e-mail support. I was perma banned once and sent ONE support ticket only to find out I was banned "in error" as they put it. I was given my account back right after they read the ticket.
So, I guess thats all I'd do. If I DID break the EULA then I'd take the ban lose everything and either buy them all again or wait for GW2. The only thing to say here is, don't break their rules. You don't wanna end up in jail, don't break the law, same principle here.

If my account would get banned ....
I'd bitch on Guru. (Pretty much because it's the only site that still tolerates my insanity! )
Bitch some more.
And bitch some more.
And that would be it. Oh and never buying anything else from anyone connected with GW.
What? I am a paying customer - BUT bitching is ALWAYS fun!

Seriouly, if I was banned from cheating, I'd take it like a man. Christ! they've got some balls to hacked, cheated or whatever and when they got caught red handed, what did they do? Dropped their freaking balls and cried, what a bunch of mook!

PLEASE.... - Require that I wear the title "Cheating is not right. Do not try to circumvent the rules for your own personal gain, or end up like me." 4- If I am allowed to come back, I will ....... - Find another exploit. Think about that before reinstating me. |

This is not a plea pro 117, nor an attack. I'm just curious. I keep thinking, what would I do? how far would I go? if this was me. If my account was banned... the thought makes me sick. So this is the scenario... IMAGINE that your account was banned. How far would you be willing to go to get it back? Please don't post "I didn't do anything, it wasn't an exploit, I didn't know..." This thread is NOT about the 117. It's about the rest of us, IF our account was banned. You are in front of the CEO super boss of ANET ( or 2, I think). You have been accused of something so severe they are going to PERMANENTLY BAN your account.This is your chance to plea a bargain: 1- What extraordinary action would you take?: Get on a plane and fly to ANET's Headquarters. 2- Instead of a Permanent Ban .... - Ban me for 3 months. 3- As a bonus... PLEASE.... - Strip all my characters of armor, weapons, gold. Please leave my Holiday Hats and my titles ( if possible, or keep the titles, but please leave my hats). 4- If I am allowed to come back, I will ....... - never, ever, ever go anywhere anything that doesn't look right. Please Follow the question format. Thanks!! |

Firstly don't double post.
In regards to a.net's security I don't think anyone here has a right to comment on it, considering none of us know how it works.
However I'm sure like all large companies they have a number of security firewalls and devices in place to prevent data from being stolen.
The game was hacked CLIENT SIDE, not server side. So really their data protection is not questionable at all.
Now if someone hacked the game SERVER SIDE that would be a different manner all together. But that hasn't been the case yet.

I would be willing to do nearly anything to not loose 15 lvl 20 characters that have over half of them beaten all 4 games. i would fly to where ever anet is and have lunch with them, and pay them for all the games over again, and let them take all my leet loot that I aquired over 3 years, to keep the lvls and the chars. I dont care for hats, but I had them all.
LOL
Then I would sign with blood an agreement to never ever do anything, that might be a bug glitch etc again, and then have them explain to me in plain talk how to tell what is and isnt part of the game, as I clearly have no idea anymore.
