Paid Here is the Email I got: ***NOTICE OF LICENSE TERMINATION*** Account: XXXXXXXXXXX Offense: Use of Bots or Third-Party Automation Software Blizzard has terminated this World of Warcraft license after identifying the usage of bots or other cheat software. These programs (commonly called cheats, bots, and hacks) automate certain aspects of gameplay, or provide unintended advantages and abilities to the player. This type of cheating undermines other players' experience and severely upsets the balance of the game environment. Blizzard reserves the right to terminate access for conduct of this nature, with or without warning, as noted in the World of Warcraft Terms of Use: Blizzard Entertainment: World of Warcraft Terms of Use This page contains details on how suspensions are appealed and reviewed: How to Appeal Suspensions and Closures - Battle.net Support Regards, Blizzard Entertainment --------------------------------- So this appears to be an automated Ban what is the best way to go about getting this converted to a 72hou suspension or getting it over turned in general? Thanks for your opinions
Status update - converted to 72h suspension Basically blamed it on my son apologized and changed my password before making the ticket I also attached a picture of my id to the ticket Here is the response I got Customer Support: Greetings, Thank you for your patience as we reviewed your account again. I definitely hear that you're looking to have the account opened again, especially if your son was the one playing it for the most part. I appreciate your candor, as well as the comment about a Blizzard jail (we don't have one, by the way). After a thorough analysis of the situation, the good news is that the closure has been changed to a 72 hour suspension, so once that expires you'll be able to log back in again and play. This suspension begins from around the time I'm writing this. This account was initially closed after evidence was produced indicating one or more characters on the account were found to be using an unauthorized cheat program (which you know).These programs provide character benefits that are not achievable in the World of Warcraft through normal means. Such benefits include, but are not limited to, character automation (also known as "botting"), increased speed, teleportation, or running through walls/boundaries. These types of programs offer an unfair advantage over other players and supersede the intended limits of the game. Etc etc
Grats on the overturn! Was really close to using that same mega profile for leveling gathering profs recently, really glad I decided against it.
