Mind boggled how my account can be suspended for language for 70 hours.

I received no email confirming this, so I don’t even know what I said.

Additionally I see people with way dirtier mouths communicating in map chats on a daily basis during PVP, so unless this company plans on giving out unequal justice you might as well ban every tournament participant.

Put a profanity filter on instead of reporting people, this is system is pathetic.

Players who think that the profanity filter is a tool that allows them to swear are mistaken. The filter is designed as a measure of protection for those who choose to use it, but it was never intended to replace good ol’ respect and common sense on the part of all members of the GW2 community.

I like Drintar’s analogy. I’ve seen other apt comments here, as well. Basically, think of the game as being no different than any other setting that involves a lot of people. You wouldn’t curse and swear in a public setting (or if you did, you would probably be asked to leave). You should not do so in a game.

Guild Wars 2 is a game that reaches around the globe and includes members of diverse races, cultures, genders, and age groups. We intend to keep the game environment friendly and welcoming for everyone. Please join us in that effort.
