Banned within 10 minutes?

Hello dear people of the Nostalrius forum/team.

I got bored with retail roughly a year ago, so today i downloaded the client and started a lvl 1 troll warrior. (Identical to the one i had at lvl 60 back in the day) Wanted to see it again. However, out of sheer curiosity I walked to orgrimmar, getting back that old feel, while still lvl 1. I wanted to ask some things regarding the server in the /1 but it said i was not allowed. Anyway, i tried saying some random things to test it a couple of times, and now poof i'm permanently banned. I can imagine you find lvl 1's suspicious for selling gold or spam advertising in general chat, but i can assure you has nothing to do with what i did. I hope you can unban me, i would prefer to keep the current email adress on the account etc...

Regards,
Peleides

Greetings!

You were probably caught by one of the spam-protection systems in place. If that is the case the ban on your account will be removed.

On a side note, you should attempt to avoid using any public chat below level 15 as it might trigger a false-positive from the spam-protection.

Hi Grifinger,

Yes, i figured it was due to some automatic protection system, hence the appeal. Will avoid any form of general chat for the time to come now, that is, if i can once again play ofcourse :P

p.s. Amazing work putting this server together (and keeping it performing with 10k+ players online!)

Greetings,

Your account has been banned by our chat protection.

We've placed this ban under review.
Unfortunately this can take some time (a few hours up to multiple days).

We'll get back to you in this thread once it is done.

While you wait, I personally suggest to create a new account and play that in the meanwhile or as new main.

If you do that, try to not use any public chat channel below level 15 since our chat protection can mistakenly ban new players.

Best regards,
GM Team.
