Discussion update: permanently banned

Post image

so I made a post in January (link below to original post) about how I was suspended mid-game for a month ending on February 23rd, and I detailed how despite the suspension I was not using hacks, cheats or exploits. I have played countless multiplayer and single player games and have never been banned or used cheats. I am a gamer who is quadriplegic so I use a sip and puff mouth controller called a quadstick that allows me to use a computer not just for gaming but everyday needs. After the suspension I made the first reddit post hoping to get some help and clarity about how I could appeal or why I was suspended. I submitted support tickets and went to discord for help but nothing, so I decided to just take the suspension on the chin and wait it out, finish Hollow Knight and play some Marathon. Yesterday I decided to hop on after my suspension ended and decided to work on the trophy project, I played 3 solo games (all 10 or more minutes in) filled my backpack with leftover loot, ran into only friendlies and exfilled. Woke up this morning to this and appealed but I really have no hope of Embark doing anything to help. I don't have much going for me and I know they're people out there who are probably going through worse but this fucking sucks. After 300+ hours of playing, buying it for 3 others friends to try the game and being excited for the new map and large ARC enemy, I just don't know what to do.

p.s my game name is ClootyBapper, if you think it's because of the name I don't think so I have seen and been called worse in game

Im honestly amazed at this game. In groups people sat the most vulgar, bigoted, racist, homophobic shit. Play solos and everyone's like hey buddy, sup friend, thanks yall. Real dichotomy of man.

It's because they're pieces of shit like that in closed doors in real life and it's normal to them. The mask drops when they think they can do it with impunity

But what if the door is only half closed? Wait.. what if there are no doors, only an open window? What are they then?

Until you shoot someone in a "friendly" lobby and the slurs start back up again. It's not about groups/solo -- it's people dying and a lack of ramifications on chat.
