Before anything, I had 2.9/3.0 million credits when Earth DLC came out, not thousands of millions as others declare.
Sorry for any conjugation errors but English isn't my native language
¤ After spending my credits, taking a glimpse of the new features, I got banhammer'd. For what? I really don't know.
I've been playing ME3 all this week farming credits and saving them for the DLC. Perhaps I've joined a match where someone was hacking or whatever (didn't see nothing suspicious apart from a Geth IIRC constantly dying and respawning at the landing zone in FBW)but since I've been banned I think that the reason is credit glitching or something like that, because I don't cheat (especially in a Co-Op game)
I never look at my credit pool, I've been saving them since I've unlocked the Phoenix Vanguard, except for some PSP from time to time and some Reinforcement packs to refill medigels.
When Earth came out I went shopping-spree like everyone.
Now let's be honest. Even if you notice that your credits are changed, you can't possibly refuse to buy packs just because some idiot edited his .ini file and the whole team got hundreds of million credits in one match, not with a DLC baiting you. The best thing to do was reporting the issue, but the last one that did that got banned.
That said, I didn't do it on purpose. I thought I had those credits all along. Not to mention hardcore cheating like aimbot and stuff because everyone that has played with me knows that I don't cheat. For what it's worth, I apologize for "cheating", whatever I've done.
¤ Now, moving on to the heart of the topic, two things baffled me since I got banned.
- Proof
There is none. I don't know why I've been banned and can't discuss any details with nobody. I've just recieved a mail from an EA bot that said "ohlolyou'rescrewed, contact Bioware". I've tried mailing mr. Tse to no avail.
- Confusion
I've contacted EA support and they told me that PC users can buy another code for an online pass (I.e. just like Xbox360 and PS3 users) without buying the whole game. I've tried to make him post a link of some sort to this service but ultimately he couldn't give me a straight answer.
If someone can give me a simple answer please do.
¤ Moving on.
Why I think banning users is pointless and counter-productive.
Because they have actually paid for a full game, not for an half. The user doesn't deserve such an harsh punishment (really? perma-ban?) for being a jerk or in my case an effin' victim.
That's why I'm asking mr. Abrams (I take that you're the leader of the ban section) to rethink his actions. A permanent ban is like a death sentence to a player, especially for a fan like me and others.
But, I have an ideal solution to this.One that gives fair warnings and fair punishments. I call it the "Sheldon's three strikes" method.
Strike 1: You got caught cheating, your profile is completely erased (deletion of all possessions and unlocks)
Strike 2: Profile Erase & Temporary Ban (three weeks are enough)
Strike 3: Permanent Ban, has to buy another license (or another ME3 copy)
tl,dr: Read the whole damn thing, it's important.
