Banned for a Week

★ Guide

 I was unable to post on here for a week. I contacted the guys at EA Dancer and Barry and did not hear back from anyone. Uggghhh I don’t know what I did wrong, but I don’t like how there was no one on EAs end that could drop me a reply. I talked to other people that this has happened to and was told sometimes when you edit posts too many times in a short period of time in order to correct spelling errors you have a high chance of getting blocked for a week. Anyways just wanted to vent and let people know that don’t expect any replies from EA if this ever happens to you. I didn’t get a reply. Someone else that this happened to didn’t get a reply. It’s hopeless to get any clarification on the matter so don’t bother trying.

When making your posts/replies, try to spend time reading it before clicking on the submit button to minimize edits after submitting the post/reply. This will ensure that you don't have to touch your reply afterwards, unless you need to add something later, like extra detail. Sometimes editing and submitting the same post/reply is considered annoying as the data within your reply/post is constantly changing. The system might consider it spam.

Why should you have to do that? Why not just fix  the website. I have had posts deleted because of edits marked as spam. Fix the damned website.

Maybe the number of edits a post had should be the tell tale sign its a spam. If you edit a message more than 5 times (it might be too much to do this), then its considered spam.

That’s nonsense. Never, ever happens in other forums.

Then why then did @Tstillman24 get banned? I'd say cause he edited his posts/replies too much. System should have a wider berth to see whether or not someone is spamming. A similar incident occurred with someone whom the system thought was cheating. This happened in the Pokemon Go servers. You just don't know a person's limit until you test it your self. Who knows, maybe the person runs so fast when playing Pokemon go that he could race a car for a few dozen meters.

@EinarThePillager We still don’t know why Batallia was banned.

There you have it.

 

I got banned myself for a week once. I edited a post too many times too quickly. The forum thought I was spamming or something, but all I did was add more info/correct spelling mistakes.

 

Also, I keep loosing XP for no reason. This forum is flawed.

 

(Note: I asked him myself a few days ago. I miss him :/ )

Maybe the xp on EA forums expires after a certain amount of time.
