Anyway to get unbanned?

[swankboss]

A few nights ago I needed a quick $105, so I sold 105k gold to a site. I have had this account for close to 4 years, and the gold was made legitly. I had nearly 200 days /played and nearly 500k gold. This is the message I got today.

***Notice of Account Closure***

Account Name: XXXXXXXXX

Reason for Closure: Terms of Use Violation -- Exploitative Activity: Abuse of the Economy

This account was closed because one or more characters were identified exchanging, or contributing to the exchange of, in-game property (items or gold) for ""real-world"" currency. This exchange process negatively impacts the World of Warcraft game environment by detracting from the value of the in-game economy.

Even if this behavior is the result of a third party accessing the account instead of the registered user (for example, a friend, family member, or leveling service) then the account can still be held responsible for the penalty because of the impact it had on the game environment.

We've found the above behavior is many times directly related to groups responsible for compromising World of Warcraft accounts; we take these issues very seriously. To better understand our position against exploitative activity and the risks involved, please review this article: Game - World of Warcraft

The exploitative activity that took place on this account violates the World of Warcraft Terms of Use. We ask you take a moment to review these terms at Blizzard Entertainment: World of Warcraft Terms of Use. Note that additional Terms of Use violations may result in more severe actions against this account, up to and including permanent closure.

For any disputes of this action or further information on Exploitive Activity, please visit the Exploitative Activity FAQ and contact page here: Blizzard Support

Is there anyway possible to get unbanned? I haven't messaged them yet, and don't want to until I can get some advice. I just want to know whether to start up a new account and start all over, or if there is any chance I could possibly get my account unbanned. Thanks.

You really want to make things look like you got hacked.

[Bendiix]

i belive its to late.. to make it look like you were hacked u wanted to proxy an asia IP.. blizzard will check what IP u were on when you did it.. if they see its your own IP then its gameover.. i think your account is lost.

[Altair87]

This seems to suggest it's not permanent:

"Note that additional Terms of Use violations may result in more severe actions against this account, up to and including permanent closure."

Yea I don't think it's a perma ban either. You just have to think of something good to come up with, like maybe saying you've been hacked by someone you know (if you have dynamic IP and share the same range with him, but I guess static can be ok aswell). You can say you've been infected with a keylogger while you were afk and he was at your desk pretending to print some important documents or anything. If you've been clean all these 4 years and you know they can't raise any other question against you, I'd say you shouldn't give up and don't forget to refresh their memory that you've been a model player for all this time, doing everything legit, without any incidents besides this one. Keep us in touch. Good luck!

[swankboss]

No it is a permanent ban.

[mmoggg]

you can email to them then you will got the answer later they will request for you ID then make clear that you are very player then you could be unbanned

[Ohmmy]

No it is a permanent ban.

No it isn't. I've had friends get the same shit, they emailed wow account admins saying they were unaware of any of this activity happening on their account and had gone to a lan center the day previously. Do a password recovery via their website and tell them you might have been hacked, and they should retract the punishment. Oh, and since the obvious wasn't so obvious to you -- if you sell gold, do it on a vanilla wow account. Freakin key is $5.

[Goldfire]

and what if you have a authenticator on ur account. you cant say youre hacked ?

[Reshgar]

You can contact some guy here, on mmowned.com . Hes offering 100% unban service for a small price. If what he says its true, youll get ur account unbanned. Just check "WoW Trade" section.

[Aldun]

It's not perm. Reshgar its not 100% and he takes ur money even if you fail. Next time you sell gold do it safely

It is not 100% unbanning because he writes them emails explaining the situation on your behalf, so I don't even know why they said it is 100% in the first place unless they used a tool to unban you which would be illegal, just think of an explanation for yourself, I am not going to tell you my wording on what I said but I got unbanned within 20minutes of being banned in the first place... (snippets of emails here...)

"Greetings,

I actually laughed at how easy it was... just make sure to get your wording correct and bullshit as much as you can, I know mine was only a 48hour suspension but still I got it back within 20minutes and they removed the warning as well
