Account banned for botting. Wasn't botting.

Apparently my account was banned for botting while I was taking a shit in AV. Supposedly this was "confirmed by a staff member," but I have never engaged in any botting.

I would like an explanation as to what exactly my offense was, and if possible, I'd like to appeal it.

According to the ToS, the sanction for AFKing in a BG should be a warning, but I never recieved anything of the sort.

True, going afk in battlegrounds is a warning, but botting is a perma ban every time. No warning necessary. Keep in mind that any attempt to keep the game active while you are not at your keyboard is considered botting. Even if you set up a manually automated system.

I did not use any automated systems or attempt to keep the game active, and I fully expected to get a deserter buff if my shit took too long.
