Talk:Patition on anet

I'm going to start a petition against Anet.

this petition is about unfair banning of players in game for dumb reasons that Anet thinks they are gods of game in.

I have played since beta in the game and seen allot, I have been gaming online for 8 years +. I have never seen a game host or a online game that figure they can ban you in game for a bad name. Besides that there is a age requirement to be able to play the game for ratings reasons. The so called contract that Anet makes you agree to has flaws in it and could be challenged in court too. Yet they also have a filter in place to stop certain words from being used.And there is a in game word filter as well. I think that knowing that Anet love's to ban players those who have a grudge or have other reasons use them to do there dirty work against much better players. I have 10 chars in game that have done most everything in the game and have given players and guilds the excess of over 1 mil. in cash and items in game. On the other side this is a game,not reality Anet we play a game to have fun, say,do what we want. I come on not to care about names and things said in game. there are methods you have given us to use to keep this safe for those who get offended. If they chose not to use them where dose Anet have the right to step in and punish others that have a so called bad name etc. I think you need to look at the whistle blower themselves and ask why are they asking you to ban them. And......as I said before this is a game so what if someone takes it so seriously.I do not! IT IS A GAME. Maybe this is the result of Anet clamping down like a Nazi regime since now there income is slowing from game sales and that they need to ban people so that they have to go buy the game again. Well guess what...I wont be buying the game again, nor will I buy GW2 either. Anet your giving yourselves a bad rep in the gaming community. If you don't like the name a player has, why the ban??? just direct them to change the name and come back in to the game. I do have a right to name my character anything I like and am able to name it that I was able too. I did so......and.......if it was not allowed how was it I was able to make it then??? And have that name for over 2 years till some dumb ass who didn't like me for some reason. probably since I was in a HA battle and they lost wanted to start something. At the expense of you Anet they used you to take it out on me. I know others that have had it happen in game to them and during the same situations HA-ing, AB-ing. So I call on all those who have had it with Anet's lack of respect to those who get banned for reasons that I deem as grudge bans etc. to post there support here too. Maybe Anet will listen to the gamers and do a better job at playing GOD in game. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:64.180.177.159 (talk).
 * For one thing, spellcheck is your friend :P For another if you wish to fight the Eula and RoC in court go for it, but the wiki is not the place. Also, it is Anet's game, so yeah, they are God's of the game, and CAN ban players for any reason they see fit. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 00:13, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
 * You have no case whatsoever I'm afraid. If you read the EULA, it pretty much says that you are paying money for the ability to play this game on Anet's servers only, and that they can revoke that ability at any point in time for any reason they see fit.  (This stops short of the Constitution by which they are bond, so you can’t be banned for being black/female, etc.) Furthermore, I don’t want to have to be grouping with people called Ass Fucker or Crotch Muncher in ANY scenario, nor would I really want to have a 13 year old kid play a game with people with those kind of names either.  While I do think that asking for a name change is a better idea, it is my understanding that this is nearly always what Anet does in case of questionable names.  My guess is you simply used questionable names over and over and they got sick of it and banned you.  And Wyn has a point, this would go over better if you spelt petition right. I hate to sound mean, and I don't mean to, but this is the honest truth.--Ryudo 00:33, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Aye. What you feel about Anet, the EULA, how the handle names and other player disputes, etc. is all your opinion, and, by all means, you are entitled to it, and should act on it how you see fit, be it by opening some sort of dialogue with Anet or bringing it up in a court of law, but the wiki is not a vehicle for communication with Anet (at least not in these sorts of matters), nor is it a place to publish thought against Anet. calor   (talk)  00:39, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
