A question on banning..

[beamed]

I was banned for censor bypass(***** with an a after the i, although I think it should be a seperate word, I won't argue..) And caps(I didn't see any rule against this, so I just assumed that it was fine..).

What I'm wondering is, after about a week, why am I still banned? It doesn't seem that serious of an offense, especially for a first offense.

The rules clearly state:

- Don't bypass the swear filters. We understand that not everyone agrees that some of the 'words' filtered out should be filtered, but we want to keep this game clean and family-friendly. So please acknowledge the filters and abide by them, regardless of your opinion of them.

- Keep the CAPS to a minimum. One or two words is alright, but whole sentences will not be tolerated.

After being warned several times about caps and by-passing, you still continued. We are cracking down on our security and quite frankly, we are just tired of reminding people over and over and over on not to break the rules. It isn't that hard to understand a set of rules and obey them...or is it?

This was my first time logging into the game, and I am not arguing against the rules. In fact, I encourage cracking down. However, I am simply asking for how long this ban is.

We usually do not unban anyone unless they ask to be. Since it has been a week now, you can be unbanned, but please to make sure that you do not bypass again. If you are unsure of what words are censored, please read the rules and look at the words that are.

Thanks. Now that I know where the rules are, I promise to not break 'em again, as this game is just too good to not play.

all i have to say is wow, usually when people get banned they freak out and curse us off, thanks Beamed

[beamed]

Meh, I don't see why anyone would act like that, and I don't know why I'm being thanked, but, your welcome! ^.^

XD I can understand someone doing that, but wow. To the point where you thank someone for NOT doing it? Jeez... Suddenly it sounds like being in the BH isn't all it's cracked up to be...

No no.. This is possible the first time I have ever seen someone being sincere and polite about it.. All other bans that I can remember, were so full of shit, they've made a lake or something.. somewhere.. anyways.. Does this topic really need more posts? xD
