Me and my friend were banned as well. We have no explanation as to anything that we have done to deserve this. We really hope that this is a mistake becuase this is completely wrong.

So not everyone got banned? Just the people who were playing at the time?

Banned here. Booted for 'innapropriate conduct' and told it would remain in effect till the ban expired. When I tried to log back in, I got a Code=045 - Permanent ban. Glad it isn't just me! Was in the Tomb of Primeval Kings about to kill The Darknesses!

WTH is going on?

so I wake up this morning, I left my character on during the festival and didn't log with him, so I decided to do some chest runs in Raisu early. my time online was at 14 hours, thanks to Anet's ingame message. during the 2nd or 3rd run, with a group, I get kicked off, with a message telling me there was a block put on my account, and that I won't be able to access my account til the block is lifted. I try to log back in though, and it tells me that its a permanent ban.

I was wondering if I got kicked for thinking I was a bot? was wondering if anyone could help me out.. I am specifically looking for the code listings on the site to see what code it is, and also if anyone knows what part to contact about this to maybe get my account unbanned or atleast so I can figure out why it was banned, it would be much appreciated.

A lil while ago, i was standing on 3x3 rings, like i did most of the event ..
I went afk for dinner and now i see this BS !!



what 's wrong with those guys ????

Support is not answering (as usual )

let's make this clear now

-no bot crap
-no ebay crap either
-no scam or things like that, ever !

so? what could be the reason for this silly joke ?

am i detected as a bot cuz i stayed afk for most of the days since the start of Festival ? anyone having that ?
(in that case, those titles are REALLY stupid)

this is insane, i dont see any serious reason for a damn ban?

I keep trying to send in support tickets, but when I submit they try and sign me up for a new account. I was about to cap Glads Def and finish Dragon's Lair too.

whew! glad it's not just me hehe .. I was trying to think of ANYTHING I have ever done even to make someone in the game mad ... and I can't really think of one ... hope Anet gets this fixed quickly ... after 3 mons of playing tho, I gotta say it's been pretty trouble free .. this is the first major problem I have seen so far

Got the same thing while using the merchant @ Imperial Sanctum A1, booted then Code=045. E-mailed support, gave login screen the finger, so I've done all that I can do for now.

I have never spoken out against ANET for anything, but this is a really F-ed up move on their part, even if it was just an honest mistake. This kind of thing shouldnt happen. We're "lucky" that it was such a large group of people getting banned...otherwise we'd probably never get our accounts back.

Seriously...this is worse than amatuer hour crap. Get your act together.

Guess a lot of people would get banned for going afk in the rings then. I stood there when the gifts dropped because all the afkers got gifts that they obviously were not collecting. Sucks if the ban is real and they should explain this one to you.
