I am afraid of buying EA products in the future - I am banning EA from my wallet

Yesterday I received email from EA with following content: We want to notify you that we found your EA Account to be in violation of our Rules of Conduct. While reviewing your account, we identifie...

    @Anonymous No one should be banned from a game they bought or put money into unless they cheat they can just add a muted penalty feature for those players.

@Anonymous Rule 5 of the Terms of Service in which you agreed to when creating your account.

Harass, threaten, bully, embarrass, spam or do anything else to another player that is unwanted, such as repeatedly sending unwanted messages or making personal attacks or statements about race, sexual orientation, religion, heritage, etc. Hate speech is not tolerated.

@E9ine_AC @E9ine_AC They could ban me for breaking this rule many times in past 6 months but they did not .... They banned me after I said game mode is trash on reddit. Go figure.

And I need to tell you that I did not agree to this kind of agreement 11 years ago when I bought Bad Company 2. So technicaly they dont have the right to ban me in Bad Company 2. Back then "EA Services" term did not even exist... and that is the term mentioned in new user agreement. ​

There are different kind of rules. Written rules are ok but rules that are technically enforced are always better. If they truly cared about this community they could easialy automatically detect that someone is using bad language in game and ban him instantly. But they have selective justice. That kind of justice, that is not equal for eveyone is worst kind of justice.... I played with people who used far more offensive lange in game chat and they where never banned (but they did not post on reddit). Selective justice and different rules for different people is also why I am afraid of buying any EA product in the future, like i stated in original post

    @Anonymous What you say on reddit plays zero role into you being banned. That is a different source of information that is not so much linked to EA. You was suspended due to someone actually reported you this time for doing it. Even big streamers have been banned or suspended for the very thing you was and dont go on reddit.

    Every rule on the terms of service is followed to a tee if and when a report is sent in.

      "Every rule on the terms of service is followed to a tee if and when a report is sent in."

      That is complete bull *. I have a proof that that is not true. They do it on case by case basis and what will happen depends on particular employee and his interpretation of agreement.

      Agreement is very widely defined.

      You say that they punished everyone who was using CAPS LOCK ALL THE TIME? You must be kidding me.

        @Anonymous Caps lock plays zero roles with this rule. It is language induced not caps. Something was physically typed or said by you and the logs showed this which granted a suspension going on what information you have provided. This is no debate it's just the rules of the game and the company. Someone on that account broke the harassment rule using certain words. They punish people upon the rules at hand. From hate speech to bullying and more. Caps lock is not in that rule category.

      No it’s not followed, EA is a company with zero morals or ethics
