Warning to Players SE is STILL Banning!Follow

Hello my friends,

Remember me!!!

I posted a few weeks ago about my account being banned because of RTM in just few days without any review first? Well guess what, filed complain and guess what almost one months later my account is still banned yei!!!

Bought another game and guess WHAT?? Banned AGAIN!!! LOL I have to laugh because seriously, Is this possible? Can someone explain to me how can they be expecting me to pay for FFXIV if I can't even play just to try FFXI? They need and want costumer , don't they? Are they so rich tha they don't need anyone else? About the claim , nothing happened so I'm guessing the so BANNED COMPLAIN is just BS. Theyr are not reviewing anything and the STF is no real. It is fake STE doesn't exist, they don't review you account. I'm sorry to be so pessimistic but I'm the proof that they are banning people just because. I wish I could have the money to sue for Sue for Defamation. Besides I'm not that important so they will not take me in consideration. I'm just so sad.

Anyways. Here is the new story: AGAIN! Wanting to play with my husband so bad because I got addicted in my previous account, I decided to give a last shot. Yes, ladies and gentlemen! I'm a freaking ****** for given them money again. I bought a new game ( another one) this time, since I was scared to get banned again, I decided to play different. Instead of log in 3 consecutive day I decided to log in the first day. Then a week later a log in again and finally 3 days later, today, I log in and miraculously I got banned. So this time I got banned not by 3 consecutive day logging in but by logging in 3 random days and just because. Nothing is wrong with my credit card, because I make sure it wouldn't happened again. Din't level up quickly. No friends again. Didn't talk with anyone. Not even LS group. Didn't sell much stuff. So can someone please, please make me find the sense of why could I get banned again for RTM reasons???

So in my opinion guys, this is fishy. What are they trying to do?? I don't know about other new users because I have seen a lot of new people with the question mark next to their nickname. Anyways, I was careful this time not to level up fast like before. I just made it until 8 level before getting banned. Not much of auction just the regular stuff, enough to buy maybe a weapon but no enough to buy me an whole set.

This Square Enix is worst than anything else.

you must have used the same credit card for all the accounts that you bought

Hi Skmm,

Yeah, I would have thought the same if it weren't for the difference in time that I got banned in both account. In the first one same CC, I logged in the first day then the secon, then the third and got the banned message.

In the second account, month later after the banned complain been filed, I used the same CC but like I sad I didn't log in in 3 consecutive days like the first one because I was afraid of getting banned again. So in other words I waited for a day o more before playing. The first day was when I bought the game and finished installing, registering etc... I played like 2 hours or 3 then I waited like a week or more. Please be aware that at this time the account was already created and my c.c registered. Continuing... I logged in the second time , a week or more, and played for 4 hours. After two or three day, not sure but it wasn't the next day, I logged in and played 2 hours. Next time my account was already banned. So my account was created with my c.c. and it took about 2 and a half week to get the banned message. So just 3 logged in = getting banned

Going back to the first account, happened the same thing but it was three consecutive days. I thought it was my c.c but it wasn't. I got my first game on February the 13, Friday. I played that same day for an hour because it was pretty late, like 2 AM (meaning it was already Feb 14). Then Saturday 14 when I woke up , played like for 6 or 7 hours, then Sunday a few hour and on Monday logged in 12 am (being Tuesday already actually) and at 3 am got the banned message.

My COMMON SENSE and NEED to figure this out... made me thought: Well I registered friday night, they weren't working and on Monday the notice something weird in my credit card, don't know what could have been since I don't use it that much, and the banned message popped out.

But using my common sense again, hey wait a minute, they don't work at 3:am so how da hell could this have happenes if no one was working at that time. Ok, maybe they have a program that kicked me out by itself. Don't know.


Next time decided to buy the game again, like I said. Same Credit Card! My account was registered a week and more. Meaning they already had all the information they needed to get me banned and all the time to do so. Ironically I registered again the same day of the week... A FRIDAY! Nex time I logged in, I think it was Tuesday of the second week, nothing happened. I played had fun blah blah blah... Second time was a day of the weekend don't remember and next time was another day of the next week, and finally the banned message.


See any correlation anyone?? Yes I got banned after three days of logging in. It doesn't matter how much time have passes between one day and the other next day. I got banned in the same amount of time if you erase the time between those days.

Again it can't be the credit card, if not the reasons then would have been credit card irregularities and not RMT. Second it can't be the credit card since it took 3 weeks to get banned while in the FIRST account it took only the weekend.


So once again I hit the wall. What can someone do in only three day to get banned for RMT reasond.

DUDE NO FREAKING SPECIAL ITEM, NO INTERACTION WITH ANYONE, NO FRIEND, NO LS, NO LEVELING UP FAST, NOT A LOT OF MONEY, NOT EARNING MUCH, NOT EARNING OR RECEIVING MONEY FROM ANYONE OR SENDING MONEY (AGAIN NO FRIEND, NO INTERACTION WITH ANYONE). WHAT THE HELL??????? O_O

Seriously need a light please, I need to see the light.


This is wrong, they simple don't want people to play anymore or what?

Still in jail.
This is not fair. How long until I get to talk to somebody?!
If I'm still in jail after 4 more days I'm just canceling everything and SE will NEVER get any of my money again. Which sucks, I was really looking forward to the next one, but it's the principle...they're still charging me and I can't play, and I didn't do anything wrong!

Wow sorry to hear that. Apparently they don't want new players to join. They should stop selling the game instead of banning. I'm also giving a second thought about buying FFXIV.

These people need to handle their costumer with more respect and care. Oh well! I will not feed their pocket if they don't fix my account.

It is so frustrating not being able to do something. Is like the bully stealing away the baby's candy. So sad.

STILL in jail.
Called customer service, they said they couldn't help me, that I would just have to stay logged in and wait in the jail for a GM to contact me.

This is bullsh*t.

I can't farking sit at my computer for days waiting for a GM to start talking to me.

Billing is on the 1st of the month, if I haven't heard from somebody by March 26 I'll cancel my account. I've been playing this game for fraking 5 years! I've worked bloody hard at my character! I am SO angry.

I've sat here and read quite a lot of this post while the version update is happening, and i have to say, i agree with everyone of you on here.

SE have a responsibility to look after us, but at the same time, we are all annoyed with RMT.

RMT happens in any game, and generally, means and interventions are introduced to stop it... or it die's out of its own accord.

Se's problem is that they've smashed the glass on the ban hammer and brought it out to play... it doesn't matter who you are or what your doing, we've all be labeled as RMT's.

In my opinion, and i am entitled to one, just like the rest of you, there is only one way to open SE's eyes a little in the hope of reducing this mindless rampage they're on; if not stopping it all together.

Boycott XIV on its release.

Some of you have said already that you aren't going to play it for the reasons stated in this post. I totally agree.

That is why i believe "Boycotting" XIV, and potentially making XIV a failure in Financial terms as well as gaming terms will mean more focus on XI.

but then, its my opinion on the matter, what do you guys think ?

It is the credit card. What you don't seem to understand is there policy is not "Accounts will be banned for using the same credit card after 3 days." Their policy is actually "Accounts will be banned for using the same credit card after investigation." Also I'd like to add that sometimes it's a number of factors that lead to a banning. Your credit card definitely contributed to that.

Guess what? Some accounts are never investigated which is why we have a equal amount of people saying they were not banned or the same people calling BS to stories like this.

The only way to make SE have better customer service is to have more competitors. or else SE will remain its arrogant attitude.

Well, it's been 12 days since you posted, so I guess you either got out of jail or quit. I hope you weren't just sitting there twiddling your thumbs waiting for someone to pop in and see if you were back from being AFK. If you make a GM call and tell them you were put in jail while AFK and want to know what's going on, someone will show up and either let you out or drop a temp-ban hammer on your face.





First, what's this ICO thing? I'm assuming it's an EU organization of some sorts, having to do with how much better protected EU people are in their online transactions?

Assuming it is, and assuming SE even gives 2 shakes of a crapper handle about them, Lobi, why would you jump to the conclusion that SE even knows about Tai's complaint to them, or would care enough to try to "cook up a 'legitimate' excuse"? He's not even supposed to be playing since he was already banned, that's reason enough to drop the ban-hammer on him again. He opened himself up to scrutiny by placing a GM call in the first place.

ROFL at that screencap. "Hey guys, I'm attempting to do something that could negatively impact your company, so why don't you go ahead and not do anything to protect yourselves from it, k? Thanks a bunch."


Also, lol @ getting the .gov involved in a video game dispute. Don't you think they have better things to do with their time?
