They probably sent you that email because you were singing a song that originally talked about another alcoholic beverage. Rum may be a part of the game but the way you were using the word could have effected their response.

That's really insane by Disney in giving you a warning because of that.
I really dont know, but maybe they dont like us to mention the word "rum" a lot in the chats.

I hope you were not drunk while singing that song! hehehe (that's probably what Disney thought).. But still, it is insane by big D.

I got banned three times with one of my accounts, my founder, so I sorta got angry, but I was ok with it. UNTIL, I look at my credit card charges, and it charged me for the time that I had been banned for, which means for about 2 to 3 months. Yes, all Disney wants is money, simple as that.

I was once suspended for singing Sweet Home Alabama. That I might understand, but getting banned for singing about rum? Wonder how anyone will get help with Gunner quest?

Come to think about it, the first GM event where we where able to ask them about whats coming to the game later, I kept on asking "Any chances of Rum being implemeted into the game?" And they didn't respond until I said it like 1,000 times and they finally said "Sorry Erich I can't talk about that".

LOL What a joke. The GM can't talk about an item that is introduced, delivered, and stolen from in his own game...

Hold your horses(Sails, Whatever) Didn't a quest involve you importing Rum to Padres or something. Either way, it has a lot of quests that involve Rum thanks to Gunner. That's pretty much illegal in itself, Pirates should ban themselves...

Hey, let's toss the spam rule in there too - they suspend people on TT for spam chatter, which would include typing gibberish, counting (people were counting buckets of fish caught), repeating the same thing over and over, etc etc.

I doubt it was the mention of rum - I've mentioned rum many times in game and never had so much as a warning. Perhaps it depends on the context of what is being said.

As for this ... that's simple, they can't talk about certain aspects of the game that may or may not be coming.

My 2 cents, for what they are worth ...

The bannings were/are so arbitrary that banning a whole account and all linked accounts would have been unfair to those who were legitimately using the linked accounts to share a paid account with their family.

A) Its a warning, not a full suspension
B) IMO, you didn't get the warning for saying the word glitch. You got the warning for saying you would "try the glitch later".

Disney will suspend people for using glitches, if caught. They didn't catch you, but they did see you saying that you were going to use it. Therefor, the warning.
