| Funtime said: I call bullshit. I've dealt with Blizzard multiple times when my accounts have been hacked, and also when I played from a different ip, and they were fantastic. All you need to do is provide your proper contact info, and answer the security question. So either the account wasn't yours to begin with and you didn't know the answer to the secret question or you did something that is actually ban worthy. If Blizzard banned everyone that logged in from more than 1 ip address they'd have about 7 customers left. |
No, I havent been banned, I just got locked out of my account. I never got the secret question, merely a prompt to enter my email and the name attached to the account. My first name is apparently not the one that I set the account up with (I set this account up around the time WoW came out to try it out, I used to only use aliases, never my real name) so that prompt failed and I need to go through Customer Service. Its not the end of the world.
As far as doing something ban worthy, nope, not even close. Probably just entered my password in wrong too many times while drunk.
As far as the angry ignorant drunk comment goes, yeah, right on. I pretty much lose my entire IQ when I get shitfaced, but my typing skills stay intact, this comes from being old and Drunk AIMing back in the day.
This mess isn't Blizzard's fault, its mine, obviously. If I had just gone to bed and not tried to log into Diablo to get some drunk grinding in, I'd probably have been able to play yesterday, oh well. Now I need to go undo the problems I've caused (and apologize to whoever got my drunk, angry, vulgarity filled email) and spend time on the phone and god knows what else to fix all of this.
The lesson here is never drink, try to play internet video games, and be Italian at the same time. Especially if you are at the Jersey Shore.
*Update* I changed the title of the thread to reflect what actually happened, IE, I am a drunken baffoon.
