RFOM …Apparently im banned?!?!

dillonthebunny · 03-10-2008, 02:47 AM

Wtf? How..who..wha?

I don’t understand. I hardly ever play RFOM online these days, I fact I cannot really remember the last time I did, basically ive come back to RFOM because im a bit bored of CoD plus been playing my mate who has just got the game, and we’ve been playing pvt games for the last two weeks. I guess it was two weeks ago when I might of gone online with a public match. But I never use a mic these days because I hate talking to strangers when I play (weird I know).. I just like to get on with it.

Anyway, my mate got the new map packs last night so I went on to set a game up and this message came up saying I had been observed sexually harassing/being racist or excessive cheating in RFOM!! Lol.. First of all how do you become racist or sexually harass someone without a mic? And second if it looks like im cheating, then I take that as a compliment, but I wouldn’t even know how to cheat in RFOM, I just play as god intended me to play.. Usually rubbish. I used to be good, but since ive been playing CoD my RFOM skills are pitiful, one of the reasons ive started playing again, because RFOM is old skool, and I shouldn’t forget that.

Ive only just stopped expecting to drop a grenade every time I die!! Lol. ..i don’t want to be banned??!!

Anyway, so I get this ban that says ive been banned for 5 days 7 hours and 3 mins. I press ok (what else can I do?).. I go back to the menu screen.. I go back on to multiplayer… and im in? I can play games, set them up.. wtf? I haven’t been banned at all? I really don’t understand.

Does anyone have a clue what’s going on, or if I can contest this so called banning?

And if ive been banned for 5 days, 7 hours and 3 mins.. suggests that the ban is a set fixed time. Is it 7 days or something? So is it saying I was reported to of done something two days ago? Which is impossible.. unless I did have a minor blast on a public game.

Can people just report you if they’re sore losers or is it a body of mods that spectate games?

Anyone can report you but I don't think you can be auto banned. It just flags your ID with the mods and they keep an eye on you. Are you sure no one else is using your ID.

Is your partner secretly taking out her stress on the RFOM gaming community under your login?

dillonthebunny · 03-10-2008, 03:45 AM

lol.. hope she isnt!! i better watch my tongue and what i say about the Wii.. lol

but its weird. i thought it might be Mods that have to have a certain figure of moderations to get through each month ( a bit like the UK poilce..

) ..and if they dont get them, they just pick people at random to get ther figures up.

if anyone can do it, it could just be a sore loser then, typical. but the chances of coming against them again are slim i think.

what ever it is, its totally unjustified.

I don't even know if my account would still be active as it is so long since I played.

I haven't even had my machine connected to the internet for a month or two, let alone played online. Will only get worse when my studying for CIMA kicks in. One thing to look forward to after the exams (3 years time) is that I might finally be able to afford more than one game every 6 months

dillonthebunny · 03-10-2008, 06:31 AM

in three years time, you'll have some cracking games to play! lol.. GTA6, GT7, PES9, GoW6... oh and MGS5

Its no big deal, the video game industry is here to stay. Honestly the last time i sat down and played a game was when i last visited this page about 4 years ago. I went out and got an education. Games can wait. So concentrate on whatever CEMA is and do it right, cause whatever you learn no one can take away from you, if you know what I mean!

psplayer · 03-21-2008, 08:07 PM

I know what you mean

Btw dillon, did you ever recover your account?

dillonthebunny · 03-28-2008, 06:20 PM

yeh, the account seemed to work as soon as they said i was banned.. really odd!
