luckily all you have to do to avoid "incompetent account handling" is not dress like a nazi

Or have support staff who arent braindead. You know, cause theyre a fair bit more of a critical component to the game than 1 player is.

You have the ability to create near anything you can imagine with the editor and you proceed to make some SS symbols to RP as a Nazi?  Not that I'm saying those things should have happened to you but what did you expect? Would you be okay with your account getting totally nuked? 

 

Because

1) I knew it wasnt going to be a perm ban for a couple pixelated symbols

2) Same reason youre getting so bent out of shape about it. I mean jesus christ my clan name is "Hippity Hoppity Women Are Property" and that doesnt piss off anyone and didnt get removed when I got temp'd. I feel like theres more people who'd get offended about that versus an SS symbol, but maybe Im not like you and dont assign evidence-less arbitrary value to random things. I made all of this stuff back when "edgy" was the trend. It was made as a joke, some people laughed, some people apparently got really overly offended by it. I accepted my consequence, I dont accept having my account broken over it and neither would anyone else if all they were supposed to get was a 7 day temp ban.
3) Ive made plenty of things with the editor. Currently my character is Naked Snake from MGS3, and Ive designed and sold some of the best looking non-copy/paste cars out there. Making 1 tiny 140p symbol as a joke shouldnt result in my account not having access to core game mechanics.

 

Merged.

op did a dumb thing 8 months ago, got tempbanned for it and acknowledges that it's just fair. you guys seem a bit too fixated on it and ignore the rest of the post

i personally hope op will get their stuff sorted and just don't get themselves in a repeat of that situation

I did. Since my ban I havent made any "harmful" symbols or anything like that, regardless of how I personally feel about it. I accepted my consequence of a temp ban, but doesnt mean my account should get royally destroyed. Im not out here blasting the n-word left and right, like honestly

OP's trying to get their account fixed, and possibly prevent this type of incompetent account handling in the future, but instead gets harassed. So progressive, so inclusive.

Yeah, showcases the mentality of the bare remaining population of this game community. I think "progressive" and "inclusive" are probably the 2 most polar opposite terms in relation to the APB community.

1) They're a private company, whatever you do they can just terminate your account. Surely a perm. ban is on the table when you try skirt/break ToS.

2) I'm not bent out of shape over anything? You think I'm somehow upset with you using SS symbols... I don't really care what you do you can have your freedom of expression but don't get so bent out of shape when a company takes action against something in their ToS.

3) Just because you believe it to be a joke maybe not everyone agrees that your joke is "funny"?

APB Reloaded: a beautiful game where you can let your imagination go free by designing Cars, Clothes, Symbols, and even music, all of that with the joy of GUNS!, let APB inspire you to be creative and original with it's unique customisations systems that are still unrivaled in 2023!

 

 *willingly designs an SS Uniform knowing well it's against the TOS/COC*

 

What did you expect? 

 

 

Anyhow, ignoring that despicable part, support indeed has some trouble dealing with these things sometimes, i remember my character also being bugged due to support because of an achievement that didn't award me what it should have, i lost a legendary and it removed some unlocks as well, it took support 4 tries (over more than a week) to fix all the issues they caused to my character, but in the end they gave me two jokerboxes (when these were still a thing) as a compensation for the trouble.

 

Listen, sometimes support isn't perfect, but it doesn't mean you should be disrespectful towards them, give them time to fix their mistakes and it will end up all good in the end.

The problem is that, twice now, theyve specifically told me "lmao fucking nothing we can do, good luck". All of my roles are bugged and acting like theyre all 0, I have none of the skins I unlocked or purchased, Ive lost legendaries, etc etc etc. They have done nothing to rectify that and even though they claim theyve tried, I've seen zero evidence or have any reason to believe they've actually tried anything.

his broken account sucks and i'd be mad if it happened to me, but at the end of the day it all could have been avoided if the guy didn't intentionally break the rules, so nah i really don't have any sympathy

maybe he didn't do it to incite anyone, maybe he actually likes how it looks. 

[Weaboos 89]

So much butthurt in just one thread. It's like the entire butthurt of the forum flocked here.

 

Still amazes me how someone can go from removing symbols and/or clothing to breaking character by locking equipment slots. Like why even go there? What did he have equiped there for support to feel the need they need to mess with that? Swastika shaped FIeld Supplier? Nazi Book Burning Torch?

Thats what baffles me too. The *only* offensive symbol I had was an SS badge. That was it. The removal of that wouldve taken me less than a minute, from the second I logged in to deleting it in Social. I understand the 7 day temp ban I got. I broke TOS, I paid the listed price. But like, it baffles me how they managed to break so much completely unrelated other shit within my characters. I even lost all my roles and access to skins I bought through Armas. Pretty sure thats illegal, and they even told me theres nothing they could do about that specifically.

Try contacting Matt via PM, maybe he'll answer, seeing as support was useless here. I've had some success in the past contacting GM's in private, then again seeing how popular he is I don't guarantee it.

 

I saw you mention roles earlier, funnily enough some roles are bugged for me too, some being 945/50 etc. I know others have this issue too. Some tried contacting support but had no success even though support claimed they have "fixed" it, heard some even had other issues popping up after that. I haven't bothered contacting them as I don't want them messing something up and also why even bother at this point.

 

Also my friend contacted support over two weeks ago regarding missing items, support managed to reply once asking for more details and it has been radio silence since...

Also because people have done some FAR worse symbols and only got temp bans. Seeing as it was my first and only offense, judging by other games that run the same sort of designer rules, it wouldnt be perm anyway. I mean its APB, Ive seen everything in symbols from swastikas, to just overtly racist stuff, to hentai and people would put them on graffiti spots. Hell I even remember one that was just straight up furry porn. My point is, yes my symbol was offensive, but it was only ever on my character, hard to notice, and again was only my first offense.

[cowhorseman 441]

as i know and as i have said. LO support will activley go out of there way to make it not there problem and not do jack shit about.

 

I lost acess to an account right. gave them emails ip and everything they asked for. what was the respone? "well we can not prove it is you"

 

bigfarger i gave you a court order of documents that prove the account is mine and you are refusing to use your resorces to fix the issue

 

Does not matter now i only wanted it for FE if it came back, but seeing how they got wiped they can keep it

 

and on a second note they threated a friend of mine with a ban becuase they acussed her of doing something wrong when she was not

Unironically a valid point. With how much mud elephants ingest on a daily basis, there's a realistic (albeit tiny) chance you could find gold in them. Ironically, the support team has a smaller chance than that of doing something properly and fixing their mistakes

I've had my account for over a decade and I've never been banned once.

 

You tried being an edgelord and now you're whining because you got more than you bargained for. Oh but "others are doing it why aren't they getting banned too? *crying face". Take some responsibility.

Ive had my account for over a decade as well, muppet. Only time Ive ever been banned was for this, and only once. Oh, and cant tell me you've never broke the ToS before, everyone in APB has. Whether by insults, symbols, ear-spam themes, etc etc etc. Nothing in their ToS states that your account will be royally destroyed in the process of receiving a temp ban.

But yeah, go ahead and excuse their shitty practices and incompetence, that doesnt make you look any worse at all /s

The ban should be permanent. Claiming that you are trolling or just having fun is nonsense. You can't play the ignorance card here either. Meyer Leonard from the nba destroyed his career by calling someone an obscure jewish racial slur. I would be thanking support for not deleting your account instead of trying to call them out for incompetence if I were you.

I made a badge. A historically correct badge that isn't censored in 99% of countries around the world. I didn't make a swastika, I wasnt spraypainted it around the districts, I wasnt out spewing nazi propaganda or calling anyone jews or slurs for it. I didn't put the N-word, or a slur, or anything else on my uniform you absolute douchenozzle.

 

They should ban you for having such a shit opinion. Thats how you sound right now. But considering how you've apparently been on the forums since 2015 and only made 2 comments, sounds like you're just an alt account for someone else here.
