I use nothing out of the ordinary, so I appealed it, listing all the software that I had running on my machine while I was playing yesterday. I sent in the appeal at 4:47 PM, the ticket said 24 to 48 hour response time. I called customer support on the phone, they said they only deal with refund issues and that kind of thing. At 5:27 PM I get a response on the ticket saying "An additional review of the previously communicated action taken against the World of Warcraft account ... has been completed. Unfortunately, we have confirmed our initial findings. The account action will not be reversed or amended." I appeal it again, trying to get them to at least tell me the software involved. At 5:46 PM I get the reply to that. "After an additional thorough review of the action taken against this account, we regret to inform you that we have arrived at the same conclusion and the account action will not be removed under any circumstances."

I did the live chat thing, I pay 3 months at a time, I wanted to see if I could get refunds for what I prepaid. The rep said I could on some, not on others. I tried to get some details on the reasons from her, or a higher level contact, she gave me a management level customer service reps email. No details though.

At 6:37 PM I put in another ticket, asking again what program I was using, what could it hurt to tell me, I don't want to use it again. Reply at 6:42 PM: "As per our last contact, this issue has already been reviewed multiple times by our representatives, and it is now considered closed. No further dicussions (sic) or review of it shall occur."

At 6:46 PM I do another ticket asking if they could furnish me with the name of a management level contact in account management. At 7:42 PM I get this reply: "Thank you for taking the time to contact us regarding the World of Warcraft account you are using. We understand your point of view and have thoroughly reviewed this issue. As a result, the account action has been removed from the account and all involved parties have been addressed. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused." And I could log into the account.

I'm saying "What the f**k??" Do they think I did something wrong or not? On the one hand I want to do a ticket asking them if removing the suspension means they concluded that I was legal, on the other hand I don't want to stir it up again.
Most of their staff actually goes through so many reports and flags per day that they basically just don't give a shit if they mess up on some of them. It takes insisting to talk to management to get a lot of things resolved that shouldn't be.

MVP's on the forums already say that the software used to multibox is legal and such as do their CM's so i don't know what the fuck their GM's/report specialists are doing that they don't know what software is deemed okay.

Theres a new process tracker that they implemented too from what i've read/heard from others as well to try and combat bots better and it may be flagging things it shouldn't be still :\
