I cannot log into the game servers, so whether it's a temp ban or a perma ban from the game servers I do not know. However, I can keep into the forums, you do not know how Bioware does their bannings or their security therefore any points you make in that department are null and mute. This post: Second, if you were banned, and you feel it was done improperly- this is not the place to air your dirty laundry. It will not result in a favorable outcome for you. My point here is not resolution. I am taking the proper channels to get this corrected. My purpose here is to inform the public community of the situation at hand in hopes to change this for the better in the future. In addition, this will be my last post on the subject as the "this can't happen" fan-boys are taking the thread over.

The situation has been fixed (at least in the point of view from what I was doing), the nodes have been removed from the section of Ilum in which there are no mobs. I also never stated that this is a wise spread ban, and who says it's not a multiple wave banning.

If I posted a screenshot of the e-mail on Reddit, how many of you would really believe, header information there and everything, with personal information blanked out? The majority of the people saying they don't believe it will call a photoshop on it anyway. I can tell you there was no intent to exploit, merely trying to help my guildies who had no money and leveling their professions. I helped them out, I've been gaming with them for over 6 years now.

I was out there farming materials and getting slicing boxes to share with my guild as leveling 16 toons professions (2 toons a piece) is quite daunting. I found out about the no mob zone in Ilum via general chat in The Republic Fleet, thought I'd give it a try. There are no mobs, and there was constantly a level 50 Assassin out there hunting me down, which although caused issues, was not all that annoying. Not to mention that they have speeders out to that zone straight from the drop point onto the planet. I would post a SS of that, but being a member of the IT security community, I would logically blank out any identification information thus causing you to turn around and discredit the image any, or blame a photoshop so I'm not going to bother wasting my time. This is in no way a whine post, but merely an attempt to bring to the attention of the community and show Bioware that their actions are wrong in the majority of the players eyes.

For those with doubts: Please read that.
