i was questing in ascalon and out of nowhere i get sent back to the login screen with message stating that someone else logged in my account. Now my account has been blocked. It says it will stay blocked for a couple of hours.
ummmm... what the hell is about ?
My account just got blocked... ???
kimchipoisen
Sir Skullcrasher
maybe that called account banned? im not sure... and how does it get blocked?
Fye Duron
Contact the support staff. This sounds like your account was stolen
C-Tzar
Yeah, sounds like that hack/bot you downloaded had a key-logger option built in.
Bezerker
Heh good, another hack/botter down the drain 
kimchipoisen
i never used a keylogger/bot. why would i spent 50 bucks on a game and use a bot knowing that it will get shutdown.
common sense.

Possibly someone go lucky with a key generator. Don't have friends, roommates, or family members that may be playing GW or had acccess to your cd key did you? Need to talk to ANet's support staff on it.
Loviatar
hey everybodyhe was logged in using it so the person who logged in forcing him out should have gotten the *account is in use * message
also how did they know it would be a couple hours and not half the day?
Lewick
It looks like they're doing a crackdown on inappropriate behavior and/or inappropriate names in the game. Your character name in game wouldn't be on "socially unacceptable" side would it?
CtrlAltDel
thats the normal behavior for the game when someone logs in with the same account
you sure nobody in your house was playing or something like that

Dazzler
Yeah but then when he tried to login again why did it say his account was blocked? Sounds to me like the new ANet bot-detection code looked at his activity and decided (wrongly) that he was acting like a bot so they kicked him and blocked his account.
How were you questing? Solo? Henches? Other people? Were you constantly zoning back and forth?
Total suckage.
To test the "account theft" idea, try clicking on the "i forgot my password" link when you start GW before logging in. I dunno what it does, but maybe it generates a new password and emails it to ya.

I just can't help but to LOL!

SOoyour account gets banned for characters names, let alone names that are not that bad like his, thats pretty weak 
C-Tzar
Not that bad? "clever" 1337 mispelling doesn't make the words suddenly non-vulgar. No, they don't offend me, but these names are clearly over the line.
Teklord
Try that again buddy. I can just see it now. Momm asks son how computer game was. Son says, it was fun! I was playing with "flaming caunt". Oh mommy is gonna love that.
As for weak, well lets look at your forum name...
Wonder what your characters are called.

Lol i am now, my charcters names are The Great Albino, Ms Diablo, and Kindergarten Cop ( my warrior looks like arnald 
), only thing im real qorried about is my new charcter, who i named after watching the rick james episode of chapele show (wonder what he is called lol). I definately will rename him, just think that kimchipoisen charcters names are npt that bad. Lastly, my forum name was the name of my original D2 account 5 years ago, was 12 at the time and the name didn,t eman anything bad to me. I was lucky my parents let me even play the game

Hey sorry to double post but this game is rated teen, and that means 13 yeas plus right? Most people by the age of thirteen have seen much worse things in movies, TV or everyday life than these character names that are a little unappropriate. So in my opinion, if that mom is mad at what her kid is seeing, then that kid is too young to be playing this game (under the age of 13). Just my opinion, to each is there own

if they would ---- out "damn", then i guess "caunt" is very offending to ANet. I like the creativity of the second char name, but this one is a bit over the line.

Oooh, it's a Rated Teen game, and by 13 They've SEEN or HEARD worse.
However, the misspelling of the one... flaming Caunt... wouldn't be in a PG-13 movie. It's be rated r or nc-17.
Reminder: if you can't see it in a PG-13 movie, then it's in appropriate.
Doesn't matter if parents today don't watch what their kids are doing until it's too late, but if it's offensive, they'll take care of it.

agreed... though remotely (remotely) clever, clearly they are A: vulgarities and B: quite unfitting with the theme of the game world and C: very unimaginative and unoriginal... look at them phonetically instead of the 1337 spellings to see how mundane the names actually are. Not sure it deserved a ban though... perhaps Anet should have a "warning e-mail" generator to send out warnings a week before bans.
Taphoo
Oh, that's classic
How about you go tell Mom the name of that first character and see if she bans you for a few hours too?
Sheesh.

i hope they done block my name, my name is Brother Mhenlo?? shoudl i be worried!!! o no
DrSLUGFly
erm...
They're probably not going to block for using real life names (even though using copywrite names is against the eula). But they prolly will block for using profanities since (who really gives a shit about pg13) many adults even don't wish to view these profanities online. I don't really care myself but the people who these names offend tend to be more fun to play with than the people who come up with these names.

I'm not trying to go against you guys or anything, but this is kinda ridiculous. There are several features to disallow encounters with inappropriate names if they offend you. IMO most people won't care since the majority of players are of an older age. Then if you do have a problem, what makes you think you're stuck with them? You only see people in towns and in missions and there are several districts in each town (for the most part). I just think that an inapropriate name is the least of anyone's concern.
Mordeth Lestalk
The main problem is, children that use these sort of names are the same ones who spam the chat channels with childish nonsense "wonder why". So their name is seen over and over, then you get so annoyed with that person that you use their "vulgar" name as an excuse to get them shut up, hopefully permanently.
Have never actually ratted someone out for their name, though I have been tempted... and the name had nothing to do with it, was the childish person behind the childish name.

Lol, I just read through kimchipoisen's charcter names again and looked at his/her third characters name Im Sofa King Hot, and actually said it out loud. Thats pretty clever, but a little unapropriate nonetheless.
