Tobias you wont be banned...the reason I said that is because I usually talk about with mates about other games and never got e-mails regarding bans. Just, be careful though, I also use acronyms in lower case for games just in case. I hope everything is ok.

Overall moderation policy seems to be very unbalanced in regard to players being arbitrarily banned for minor infractions, while players displaying harrassing or abusive behavior in the game are often let off with a minor warning.

Oh, they get banned alright. They just misuse and abuse linked/tabbed accounts. When one gets banned, they just move to the next one. It's one of the main reasons that Disney took those away

Ya they will still get banned or suspended but now instead of using the tab to go over they will just use another basic account that doesn't even have to be linked and do the same thing.
I still don't see the point of removing the tab.
Just ban the troubled account and all accounts linked to it. Yes it sounds a little harsh but why not make everyone in the house hold suffer and if they all suffer and then maybe the offensive person will get the hint and mellow out and be nice.

Rum Banning?!?

Mates,

During the BBQ today, I was quietly awaiting the arrival of pirates running the race and so typed a few notes as a joke...

I GOT THIS EMAIL this afternoon.

You should e-mail them. This is not right. Disney is getting more pathetic as the months go by. You should be furious and let them know this. They have no good reason to ban you. I think the bans may be computerized, as in the people really never see the chat, the computer does it automatically.


An example of disneys Failing ways.......Look what they did when the Disney company bought the Power Rangers franchise...killed it



Edit: I looked at their rules there in the link...maybe it was this? Weather it is the reason or not, that's still not right.

Has to be some kind of mistake, or the license agreement with the song. I hope you call them on monday , so sorry this happened, you were such a big help to us today, thank you for helping us celebrate!

I doubt there is any licensing of that song though. In all searchs it comes up with unknown author. Its not much of a song to begin with... not saying I havent been guilty of singing it mind you.. its just not much of a song. Best reason I could come up with would be that that saw it of encouragement of drinking. I know I know the game has rum in it, but seldom speaks of its consumption. Good question, i've never seen anyone get anything like that without being banned.

FWIW, a guildie got banned a few months ago for mentioning rum. We did a big campaign and emailed them because we thought this was about the worst banning idea we had heard (yeah, rum is part f the game), and haven't heard back yet.
