You know that box you checked when you agreed to the terms of service and probably did not read? (few do read it) It will be in there. Lawsuit? Good grief, I think my IQ dropped a little just reading that comment. |

eheheh 2 things i'd say: a) What a start you did in GW2. lol b) Very restrict at arenaN. I'm not telling you shouldnt say stupid things like that, but thats the way you present your opinion. Rugh but it's way. The ban, it's a bit more ridiculous than the phrase. Turning a MMO into a perfect world (im not pub) it will never turn into a nice end. I guess my decision of waiting a litle more it's not so wrong. Has i see GW2 is getting too much perfect. As my friend Jab says, if there's no Drama, definitely something is wrong. ![]() |

Originally posted by Jagarid Im kind of glad as well, we need more of this to stop games from becoming WoW chat. Letting people do and say what ever they want is what ruins a community. I do hope you get your account back, at least you will (hopefully) think twice before saying something innapropriate. M rated/ Adult talk should be left to private chat, party or guild...even then, you should know if your in front of a mature, understanding group of people. Not everyone wants to hear people and their foul mouths....even though its a game, show some respect...not just to others, but for yourself! |

Originally posted by Hrimnir Pretty sure the ToS says that they reserve the right to ban you for whatever reason they feel like. Id wager 99% of MMO's include that in their ToS. First google result http://us.ncsoft.com/en-gb/legal/user-agreements/guild-wars-2-rules-of-conduct.html |

Originally posted by Ghern I was discussing a hypothetical. I don't own GW2, nor do i have any intention of buying it. Anyways, don't take my post as condoning his actions, i still disagree with them. My point is that generally companies can't get away with shit like that, regardless of terms of service. I for example work in the auto insurance industry, and you'd be amazed at the shit that gets thrown out of a signed written contract because a judge or a jury decides that it wasn't valid or fair, etc. For example, you can put into your terms of service that if you are ever to wear a red shirt while playing our game, your account can be banned. Now, most people on this forum would go "well idiot its in the TOS and you agreed to it, so blah blah blah". When if someone actually did get their service termed for wearing a red shirt and playing the game they could EASILY bring a suit against that company, assuming said company did not refund their money. Basically once they define it as a service, they have to provide that service, or they have to refund your money, they can't can you for no valid reason and keep your money.

I'm not saying I shouldn't have been banned. I'm just saying I was banned.

Originally posted by Hrimnir If a company operates within the borders of the United States it's subject to our laws. Op it's not very clear what actually happened from your post. You said it where and were banned from exactly what? Anyway I can't imagine what would cause you to say something so inane.

Originally posted by Hrimnir Um...all the courts agree that video games are a service. When you purchase a game, ANY GAME, you do not own the rights to that game. You purchase the ability to play said game. If said person breaches a companies terms of service, they have the right to terminate your access to the service. Depending on the laws, some services may be required to provide a refund for the remaining time of the subscription. This isn't a subscription based game. Considering he had received the service (with BWE, and headstart) and used it, he is not entitled to a refund for being banned. Let me put it this way, he would have no case and the courts would laugh at him as he has to pay the legal fees associated with bringing a ridiculous lawsuit to court. He violated ArenaNet's terms of use, and is therefore able to be removed from said service. There is no validity to your statement. |

It wasn't as offensive as much as it was stupid. Nothing personal against OP, but some general guidelines should be followed, meaning we should be careful what we say, online or not. |
