    Hi.
    I'd like to know if there is a rule of how long chat bans last or if it is arbitrary how long somebody is banned?

    I also would propose that there should be a ban for world chat only while being able to post in armada chat. WC bans could be longer (e.g. 6 months) or even permanent if need be. This would prevent people from posting offensive things in WC without punishing the entire armada for a longer time.

    my understanding is that chat bans are indefinite until you ask for permission to be reinstated

    @Gogolak is correct, if you contact Support they will (usually) lift your chat ban for you. :) Otherwise they remain in place.

    Except for the exception for Dale :) and the informal workflow for lifting bans: What about bans especially for WC? Is this a bad idea? Since the reasons for bans are mostly postings in WC (as far as I can see) it would be a appropriate to ban players from there.

    KANO had a meeting on chat ban's "correct me if wrong Mitch" to be lighter on ban's from world chat.
    I've seen it, and believe the new PG-13+ is working quite well to allow players to step "somewhat out of that old fine line"
    • Just do not overstep the line, all adults here and basically know the limit's.
    • Don't even ask that fine line, you already know it.. ;)

    and if you're ever chat banned, you also can't post messages in bosses, either.
