Before I even post there I want to make sure the rumors of having your whole origin account ban are not true ?

Would it be against the TOS as well to create more than one account so you can have different names for your origin account and forum name ? So people can't troll you and stalk you.

You aren't suppose to get banned from your games when you get banned on their forums. But even after the first time it caused an uproar and EA said that it isn't suppose too, it was still happening much later still.

So in other words, you shouldn't post on their forum unless you don't mind possibly having your account banned, even if they unban it you'll still have to go through a bunch of shit to get it done probably.

So how much do you trust EA? They earned the rep they have for a reason.

Just don't be a jerk on their forums, and they won't ban.

Or in other words, you can complain, just don't get down in the gutters.

This is not true, i know someone who got banned for getting sweared AT in the forums, lets call him john for this example.

Someone was upset with a post he made and posted something along the lines of:

"John you are such a fucking asshat you have no idea what you are talking about"

Then john gets autobanned by the forum software which detected his username and offensive lanuguage in the same post and also locks him out of his origin account so no access to games, for 3 days. He e-mailed support and they took 4 days to get back to him.....

I would NEVER under any circumstances post anything on the EA forums.

That was a bug in the filter software then, and wasn't intentional.
EA wants rated G forum talk for the most part.

Why would you leave it to an automated system to ban customers, and then have slow, awful customer service to reverse it? Might be one of the stupidest ideas in a long, long history of stupid ideas by stupid people.

I know this now, i also know this happened AFTER the public statement about forum bans NOT effecting your origin account so obviously EA cannot be trusted to

1. Tell the truth

2. Fix it in a timly fashion

I mean i get it error's happen but when you get a 3 days ban and it takes support 4 days to get back to you that looks exactly like they deliberitly waited for the ban to be over before even trying to remedy the situation.

Simply put EA is not to be trusted.

Why in heaven would you buy a EA Origin game if you don't trust them for voicing your opinion on sh@tty service. Whets going to happen when the service goes to cr@p and they shut down the servers to games that you rightfully purchased.
