i know they arent i had in the a few accounts banned a few months ago and now to and they where all permantly and this last account where i had only mop on got a suspension of 6 months lol its like they want me to upgrade to wod befor i be permantly banned but i wont bot anymore til they really know whats going on

 

In my case it's temporary. Just got a response that I will (roughly) translate:

 

It's possible that forum and launcher do not have this 6 months period built-in, thus showing permanent status. Just ignore that. Email saying 6 months is the evidence.

 

Exactly. I had this confirmed by a GM yesterday.

 

Either way, all of the speculation about if it is 6 months or perm won't be realized for sure until November 13th for almost all of us that were banned. So all of this back and forth does not matter.

 

From Blizzard :
"Your World of Warcraft account is currently under a temporary suspension due to a breach of our policies. We have already sent an email with more details but can inform you that the suspension is for use of unauthorized third party programs and will last for 6 months. You will be able to play again after this time."

So it IS a suspension, your account will be reactivated automatically after 6 months.
Kindly stop talking nonsense.

 

People...we all got an e-mail stating the duration of the ban AND even a DATE when our accounts will be unbanned. Don't be stupid. Read. 6 month bans just didn't exsist untill now, so they haven't been able to make any interface/webpage changed yet for this. And since it's a long ban, the most convenient text would be "This account has been closed". Also perhaps even to scare us botters.

 

Sure it is to confuse us, and add extra fear of perma. Sure we should follow fact and initially belief its 6m. Just remember they can extend it cause in agreement they do not need to give reasons ^^. If they feel they didn't make enough profit in this wow token monopoly, they'll extend or redo a bot check and make another banwave :/. Just saying to keep that in mind too.

 

Friday the 13th. Coincidence? I THINK NOT!!!!!

 

Bets are open, i dont think the suspension will last for 6 months
