EA might take my games away?

Postby coder0xff on Sat Mar 12, 2011 1:45 am

A player got a 72-hour ban from playing Dragon Age 2 for calling EA the Devil on the BioWare forums. A lot of people are saying, "it's only 72 hours", but what's to stop them from making it permanent? It's already been discussed on Steam forums, and since the forum accounts and steam accounts are not linked, it's unlikely to happen on Steam.

Wow thats total horse shit that EA can ban your access to your paid for games. Fucking low blow, I hope people bitch enough about it and get EA in a big mess of trouble.

I actually think it's illegal to ban someone because of a rude comment. If we managed to find a lawyer who is also a gamer i'm sure we could get a court case 'pro-bono'.

If we could manage to get a lawyer that wants to take down a huge company. *looks outside window* Yeah he should sue EA.

Really EA, this is just stupid. :|

It's been retracted, but they're claiming the ban was an accident...
