Interesting....

So My account was banned on 23 January and I stopped playing the game. I appealed it a few times before getting the old 'penalty has been upheld' message.

However I got this on the 21 Feb. I thought at first it was a scam, but I logged into bnet and my account has indeed been restored complete with my 98 paragon character.


Greetings,

We recently closed the Diablo III license associated with this Battle.net account. However, we?ve found evidence that the closure may have been a mistake on our part so we have re-opened the account for play effective immediately. We humbly regret the error and hope that you will accept our sincere apologies.

It is our goal to ensure that Battle.net is a fun and safe environment for all players. We take security and fair play very seriously, and we are truly sorry that this license was mistakenly penalized as a result of our efforts to keep Diablo III enjoyable for everyone. If you have any questions about the policies we enforce in Diablo III, please see our In-Game Policies support article : https://battle.net/support/article/300722.

We hope this resolves any concerns you may have about this action, and we look forward to your safe return to Diablo III.

Regards,

Blizzard Entertainment

Wow I bet they send so few of those emails they had to type it by hand. Basically you won the lottery. Better odds at finding a BIS weapon then getting an account action reversed. Awesome

I dunno,

I read that as "hey, we fucked up, we use to make a killing off of your auctions, please come back, our player base is shrinking"

24/7 Only stopped for maintenance.

hahaha yeah maybe... except I didnt use that account for auctions and funnelled them to a main account. I have no idea why they restored it as they didn't want to restore it when I sent in support tickets right after it was banned. The sob story wasn't even good. I am also unsure why it took them a month to do it - basically after I have well and truely quit.
