Ban limits?

[toanuju22]

toanuju22 - You know what you did to get banned. You cheated or hacked or caused trouble or went phishing for personal information or whatever. But you know. Be a big boy and confess. By doing that, you will actually help other pirates who might make the same bad decisions.

How many times must I say this , I don't know why I was terminated!
I came back from school on a Thursday evening and just check my email and got hit in the head with a brick from POTCO saying my account was terminated.

And for getting my Mother into this, was only because POTCO wouldn't reply to a few of the emails I sent them, so I used my Mom's instead to get the some even more confusing emails.

As for being a " Big Boy" and confessing, there is nothing to confess I am just as confused as a monkey on Mars. If I had even the ability to hack what is my motivation, I had everything I wanted before my termination, a great guild, some good friends, no one that I really hated, as I call it "Friendly Competition".

I'm seeking advice not giving it, even as many people I know state that my advice is worthless.My only 2 cents of advice is don't trust gunner with a entire guild supply of rum.

Even though this is off topic, I would ask POTCO to see your log in times. It's possible that while you were at school someone "hacked" your account and abused it. I've heard of this happening before, and some people never get good responses from Disney.

If they can check our chat, I'm sure they can check our log in times. If you they do give you the times, and one looks suspicious, I would tell them. Even ask for the IP address. I don't know if they can give you that information, but if they can, I would ask them if one looks different that another. If the IP address(I believe it's how they know your location) looks different, then you can prove you didn't do anything. Eh... what I mean is, if there is one or more IP address, and you know you only play on one computer, you can tell them that you obviously didn't do anything.

I've never been in a situation like this before, so I don't think I can say anything more. If you truely have no idea why they banned you, they have to give you an explanation. Legally, I believe, although the policies say they can do anything to your account without an explanation. That creeps me out.

P.S. If you used a glitch, like the speed glitch, they could have banned you for that. Even minor glitches, if they help you advance through the game, can get you banned.

They actually closed it with have a horrible day?

Add: If I were to guess they suspect some foul play going on for some reason.
Most terminations get explanations.

I'm sorry, this is the wrong time for it, but I actually got a laugh out of that.

How on earth did you get terminated? An explaination would have been helpful here

Yes they closed it with that, for some unapparent reason Disney must really hate me,

As stated in the email, future attempts to regain contact would most probably go uncontacted, leaving me just as bored as Jackie was on Rumrunner's Isle the first 2 days till I get a respond from snail mail.

[bartholomew bladeroberts]

call disney and talk to them about the end of that message knowing disney like i do that might be your ticket back in because i'm pretty sure what they said breaks house rules enough to get someones account terminated thereby getting them fired in recompense but instead ask if you can have your account instead as a fit recompense

[Fillyteen]

This situation reminds me of mine, but I didn't get banned, I just got shut out of the leveling and having fun in test as I am basic and been basic since the game came out, not paying member, but for the longest time I could do stuff on test as everyone else, then came the time where Disney was like 'lets see who is basic and who is paying member and let thoose who are paying be on test and get the full access and let those basic be basic on test'

Boy I was steamed when I found out that I was one of them who got cought off for doing most stuff, and I have been with the game before it even went out to the public when it was for a few who signed up for test/beta server until it was released to the open server

[Davy Keelhawk]

aye to some things said above
dont get yer mum dragged into this.
if said mod DID say: "have a horrible day" i dont think thats disney. it shows that the mod might ave' a grudge on ye or somthin.

mate, just keep trying to find out why

[Cpt. Charlotte Doyle]

I am a witness of that night. Toanuju22 did nothing to deserve a termination. He has been nothing but an upstanding guildmaster, and player. I would like to comment that hacking is something the corsairs NEVER use. a few harmless glitches, but never for purposes of gain of any sort, and never use foul language. I do agree that something is fishy about Disney not offering a reason as to the termination of his account. I have seen far worse roaming the shores of abassa tortuga that simply do not get a reprimand when they have violated many of Disney's policies, many times in only one sentance.

OK...this is what I've been talking about. What night? And what happened that night? You see...you can't be a witness to "nothing." so...

1. Something happened and he deserves to be banned.
2. Something happened and He DOESN'T deserve to be banned.
3. Something happened and He DOESN'T deserve to be banned except for all the other times he has been suspended and Disney just got bored with him.
4. Someone else did something and he participated and got banned like #3.
5. It actually truly wasn't him but his history makes him guilty enough for Disney.
6. It simply, actually and truly wasn't him and Disney is wrong.

We may never know. But the fact that Disney can simply terminate a paid account for no reason or any reason without explanation sounds like bad business to me.

All she is stating is that the night he was banned, he was doing nothing that goes against the Terms of Use. HOWEVER, this does not mean that the nights SURROUNDING the night he was banned had nothing to do with it.

People, listen. We can not rightfully accuse anybody of anything until we get all of the facts straight. Reprimanding toanuju isn't going to get us anywhere, its just going to turn what was supposed to be a simple thread into a heated debate.

If you really wanna find out what happened, toanuju, is simply just keep asking Disney. Your best shot at getting a response out of them is calling them, rather then emailing them. That way, you can get an actual answer from an actual human being, instead of a scripted, automatic email. Also, when you ask them, what I would do is....

1. First, ask why you were terminated.
2. If what they tell you is something that did not happen, ask for them to find out the exact time of when this happened. That way, if somebody did hack you, you know how.
3. If they actually said to you in their email "Have a Horrible Day," whether you actually did something wrong or not, that is inexcusable. I would DEFINATELY complain about that.

[Sven Osymthe]

Just throwing in something.. it doesn't matter if nothing bad happened on the night before he was terminated.. his termination could be the result of something he could of done a while ago, and Disney could of just found out. Just because the termination happened, doesn't mean it has any connection to the day before.

[The Skirata Clan]

I would follow Del's suggestion 22.

[Sven Osymthe]

Yeah, as others have said, you should call Disney, not email. If what you're saying is in fact true, then theres no reason to send emails if they're gonna ignore it. The worst that could happen with calling is that they would hang up.

Been trying to call Disney but mostly each time I call they say "Send us a Email and we will help" and of course that leads me nowhere, well Ill see if the 13th time is the lucky charm for calling.
