PSA: GMs are banning players for attendance.

Really? Are your chances of getting banned THAT high?

Over the years, I've seen people get blocked/banned for:

-Riding mounts
-Hanging on ropes (ala this topic)
-Swearing
-"Harassment"
-Lagging
-Training (Was banned once at Skelegons using Blizzard, have heard multiple instances of Arans being blocked while training, which leads me to...)
-Using certain skills (Such as Aran's "Body Pressure")
-Falling victim to issues on Nexon's part (Mass bannings in error that are later corrected, but take time)
-Having "inappropriate" user names (Note that when I say "inappropriate" in quotation, I've seen cases before where said names weren't using any sort of bypass to use swear words in the name or anything like that)
-Gifting NX
-Using paypal to purchase NX in general
-Attacking anything too quickly
-Receiving gifted items
-Being banned by gray areas/technicalities of particular events ("You can't do that on more than one character!")
-Partying others who receive bans for any of the above reasons (Assuming that the player wasn't using any cheats or third party programs)


and finally

-No clear reason at all. No, really. I've had this happen to both myself and to friends before. Log in, disconnect, log out, banned. No explanation over ticket. Does it sound stupid? Does it sound unbelievable? It is, and it should be, but its happened.




If the chances arn't very high, they're at least moderately high. The autoban system in general is far too sensitive. With all of the "Nexon bans another innocent" topics that seem to float around discussion boards these days, I think I have fairly good reason to believe that a ban isn't that terribly difficult to receive.
