Were you quoting someone?

Do you have previous offenses?

I once told this guy to fuck off because he was being a prick. 72 hours for that also, but that was like 4 months ago.

And no, I wasn't quoting they just sent me it like that.

"72 Hour Suspension
72 Hour suspensions are assigned when a player needs to be removed from the game for an extended period of time or the player has repeatedly violated policy in a relatively brief period of time. 72 Hour suspensions are somewhat rare, as they are only given for serious policy violations or repeated policy abuse. The following are also true of 72 Hour suspensions:

* Serious account penalty
* Somewhat rare
* Extended service interruption "

I don't think calling someone a racist faggot should be a 72 hour ban.

Neither do I.

Try like 6 hr max. If that.

Wow that's horrible~. I've had two 72 hour bans for calling somebody a fag and a jew. (sexual orientation and racism). I responded with an email telling them fags are ciggerettes in my country and my parents are jewish, no response.
