I would occasionally talk in /bg and general chat.
It isn't, but you'll find that sometimes they just paste the wrong letter to you. If they review it further, they'll probably send you the right letter or unban you.

game property (items or gold) for "real-world" currency. Tell them you did not do that and you'll be unbanned in 72h or whatever.
1) The OP has already said that he didn't sell gold 2) As shaorinor said above, they often just paste the wrong template in - so the quoted reason is not necessarily accurate 3) Why would you 'lol' at anyone getting their account banned? Would YOU appreciate it if someone laughed if it was YOUR account? Try and have some respect for your fellow botters - it's called Common Courtesy. Good luck to you OP - I hope you get your account back. I'd put in a ticket and act dumb... "Why would you close my account? I NEVER bought any gold!!"
