Bannable In-Game Behavior?
 
Hi,


I'm curious. What sorts of things in the game can get you banned? A couple of times when we've been online, there will be someone that follows my daughter around and just shoots at her. They don't do any damage of course. It's just annoying. If it was just once, I'd assume it was an accident. But they do it repeatedly and follow us around.

Can you report these people? How do you do that?

Thanks,


Michael

If you click on the obnoxious player a menu will appear with a report option; I think rude behavior is one of the sub-choices.

You can always switch servers, too.

I mentioned VOdka and Coke and got a warning from Disney for saying it lol. But its ok to say Rum.

Make sure the person isn't on their friends list, and change servers.

that's kinda strange i bet if pirates had a chance they'd drink vodka. i bet one of my friends has got a lot cause of coke!!

Well, we cant say what it would take to get banned from the game here cause it would most likely result in a ban here as well. However I can tell you if you cant say it in 6th grade, you cant say it in the game.

BTW, please report the obnoxious troll for rude behavior and make sure hes not a friend on her pirate.

As far as what gets someone banned, There is an intriguing lack of consistency and common sense that keeps us all guessing.

The one time I was suspended, the other half of the same conversation had thier ban lifted.

I learned this from that adventure:

(My approach) The polite, common sense, intelligent, and informative approach will always fail to reverse a suspension, as the Disney rep can ignore you for the duration of your conversation.

(My friends approach) The rude approach, name calling, cursing, telling the Customer Service rep they dont know what thier doing, are doing a crummy job, and that thier company is a pile of etc etc.. gets your suspension lifted.

Go figure.

As mentioned before, make sure the individual is NOT on the pirates friends list, report them, and then change to another server. (hopefully you can be done with them from that point!)

The best you can do is report the person and let Disney determine whether or not this is harassing behavior. I remember reading somewhere that they prefer you to put the person on ignore and change servers, and everything within your power to avoid them, before you make a report. This of course is not the case under those special situations when that can be harmful (asking for real life information, using vulgar language...and so on).

i have a question related to this topic.

how long does it take for disney to ban you after you do the crime? say you said something bad in-game, and you were reported for it. how long would it take them to get the report and bann/suspend you???

CaptainGreenGene 05-22-2008 02:48 AM

banned
 
Many of the members of my guild have received warnings for saying here they live and how old they are. One member got short term ban for saying he was on ******* and where to find him there

Haffgrim 05-22-2008 12:58 PM

well i understand that. I HATE when those low lvl scum follow you and shoot you it's nerve racking!!!!

Never say "rep stealer" and "freaking retard"

That got me banned for 3 days.

"rep stealer" got you banned? I'm not sure how this is a bannable offense. It certainly is not ideal behavior but...that's just silly.

My littlest sister is severly mentally disabled, to the extent that she will never be able to talk, much less care for herself.

Hearing or seeing anyone use the word "retard" like that makes me want to punch them in the face.
