Hello, review my case please.

Hi dear GMs!

Yesturday my rogue Aldarkh was permanently banned and accused of botting in BG. I played for about an hour and while doing AV I was studying and I did not participate like I should have. I did not, however, at any time use some sort of botting program to keep me from beeing flagged AFK. I was moving around, pressing space while reading, attacking and defending. I understand this is bad manner to leech rep and not fight to 100%. I would accept something like a 3d ban or even a 7d ban, dident really think of it as bannable. I left during the second BG to do some laundry and when getting back I was expecting me sitting in Og with the deserter debuff, but instead I had been kicked and banned. I have 20d played or something and never before broke any rules, but 30min pressing space would result in a permaban? Isn't that a little harsh?

You made me the most happy man on earth when I got the opportunity to go raid vanilla again, but now it feels like my dog was murdured and I cant do anything about it.

I've got great concern for my guildies, I do understand he might have not always been attentive but it's not a reason for account closure for botting as I'am completely sure he wouldn't been botting.

I'am in no way blaming the devs, I can definitenly understand that someone smashing space button would come off as a botter. Now if possible, I would like to have a review in this case and perhaps lighten on the penalty by perhaps making it a day/week bann instead.

I'll have a talk with all of the guildies and make sure noone from Regementet will be afk leeching in the future.
I'm sure I hate this as much as you do and I gurantee you that my part of working against afkers will continue till the day I quit this project.

Regards,
Niko

Its funny how you are one of the loudest voices on the forums to permanent ban leechers in BGs.

And now you're here to get an appeal for someone leeching?

Hilarious :lol: :lol: :lol:

Absolutely, people that leech their way in ranking is a serious matter and a big problem on the realm.
It's pretty known that Alterac Valley however, is a bit more of a grayzone. Generally nobody really gets into an AV with the intent of making the utmost maximum honor per hour and alot people just use Alterac as a way of quickly farming Black Lotus and Rich Thoriums.

Sure, he was afk momentarily, but he was indeed not botting and shouldn't be penalized as such.
That's the difference, I want everyone that afks to have their accounts seized and locked down for a good while, but not permanently unless this is a repeated offense. Or botted for that matter.

Maybe it's worth noting that if I was indeed using a bot I woulden't bother apealing the punishment, I trust people to make the right decision.

I would probably head out and buy a new dog instead.
