Account Banned

[MurlinatorZ]

Character name is Tardstrength, fell asleep on a flight to Feralas early this morning, woke up and tried to log in and it says account has been banned, just wondering what that's all about.

Greetings,

The account associated with that character has been permanently banned for conducting a forbidden gold transaction.

Regards, GM Team

and there is no way for me to get this ban lifted? i guess i thought there would be some kind of warning involved in this process not just waking up to a ban out of nowhere.
