Mail looks just like the one I got on my gatherer last week:

***Notice of Account Closure***

Account Name: XXXXXX

Reason for Closure: Terms of Use Violation -- Exploitative Activity: Abuse of the Economy

This account was closed because one or more characters were identified exchanging, or contributing to the exchange of, in-game property (items or gold) for "real-world" currency. This exchange process negatively impacts the World of Warcraft game environment by detracting from the value of the in-game economy.

Yeah... strangest bans ever, don't know. Don't really care that much tbh, but would be nice to get the shuffler back tho.

I've had the same email like the second one. i appealed it and they removed the ban.

i kinda wrote the appeal like a 12 year old, acting really sad and scared like this:

'' hello blizzerd i dont understand why i am banned i never sold any items for real money i am just a player and i really love this game, i dont know what to do could you please explain me what i did wrong '' it was something like this, i emphasized on the '' i never sold anything for real money ''

dont know if you wanted to appeal but im just sharing my experiences.

Thanks for the advice, I might try that later
