Ban

From Guild Wars Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

A ban is the result of inappropriate behaviour according to the User Agreement. It includes bad language, the use of farming bots and the exploitation of bugs. A ban is also known as a suspension or a block.

The length of a ban is is based on the severity of the the offense, and the past behavior of a player. As an example: A farming bot would be blocked forever, while a ban for spamming in towns (namely trade spam in local chat) would only be a few hours. When a player gets banned, his/her account gets an account mark. Ban lengths increase everytime you get an account mark, and will eventually lead to a permanent ban.

Minor offenses, such as spamming, may be punished with a short-term ban. Major offences, such as the usage of bots or real money trading, may lead to a permanent ban or an IP ban. A ban will add an account mark, and with each consecutive ban, the length of it will increase.

The most common reasons for bans are botting, and racial slurs and/or inappropriate language.
