Edit: Username was “SmoochyPit”

Wanted a place to dump this. I stopped playing in February when they prevented playing on Linux via Wine. Tried logging in now that Sober exists (sometime in August), and was met with this.

My account and username is 11 years old. I’ve spent money on premium currency and items. Hasn’t ever been a problem. I tried to appeal…

I was not given any notice about it. I checked, and there was not an email sent when my account was actioned. No warnings, not a thing.

I tried to explain this in a reply, but they shut it down, saying there would be no further communication on this issue, since it was more than 30 days old.

Feels super unfair. But I’m powerless here…

I wonder if its some regex mistake where because it has the letter 's h i t' in that order even though theres letters in between, it got flagged.

Oh… I’ve never once considered that. But that’d make sense as to why it only recently picked it up— historically, the profanity filters were super easily bypassed. Maybe they tightened them up!

Deep, deep deep in Scunthorp territory. A human being should have been around to clear that flag.
