No reason.
I got banned for no reason.

I just wanna know why I have been permanently banned from all FoG servers and got my permanent donator status removed. I have done nothing that is agains the rules. And I am posting this here because your "Protest a ban" leads to nowhere.

 

Take a look at this.

Banned by: n0name
Reason: Advertising

According to your chatlog, this ban is according to our rules. Only n0name can decide on this one.

I said it would be cool if someone checked out our clan's new server. I don't see any rules about advertising servers.

 

"Linking to sites for the purpose of advertising is not tolerated. Other links are at our discretion."

I didnt link sites, the rules doesnt say anything about telling people to check out their server. I didnt even get a warning, you just instantly perma banned me and removed my donator status. I had no idea giving out our server IP would get me perma banned without any warnings.

 

it looks like you did.

Really? Can I see that? Because I didnt post any links.

 

Advertising contains internet pages, but also server IP's.

Since you post a server IP, it is advertising.

 

Maybe the rules should say No advertising pages or servers then? And why did I not get any warning?

 

Maybe because it is common sense? If you're not allowed to advertise webpages, why would you be allowed to advertise IP's?

Of course I wouldnt do it if the rules say no advertising servers. Again, why did I get no warning?

 

read the rules, no warning is given to advertisement and its common sense advertising:
advertisements plural of ad·ver·tise·ment Noun
A notice or announcement in a public medium promoting a product, service, or event or publicizing a job vacancy.
and you were promoting your server it was made very clear.

 

Doesnt seem like common sense to me. Guess you guys just lost your most active player then.

 

I don't think so.
You were banned on the 29th of June. And just now you came onto it. Doesn't seem like that active.

 

I was playing almost every day since last year, and I really don't care if I got banned anymore. Maybe you guys should write it in your rules now so more people doesnt end up like me.

 

Just a question, do you know how the DNS works?

 

Don't even know what DNS is.

 

I lol'd much. Well, it does seem the most evident common sense to me. Advertising is referred to any kind of publicity, and that's not allowed (common sense strikes again). Btw DNS means "Domain Name System" and the easiest example is the next one: Google's "domain name" is google.com
