dont freak out yet, i had a very similar situation happen a few weeks ago and it all got taken care of within 2 days, i even gota apoligy letter from Bliz and it seems they gave me a free month of service on my main account. But i know how you feel man, i was freaked out too. just smoke a cigarette and give it a couple days to let the GM do his job.

thats an email i got..
i just talked to a GM and they said it was fine.. but obviously their phone service is against multiboxing.. the first guy hung up on me.. and the second guy preached to me saying it was completely unfair that i could "hurl five shadowbolts at people and kill them before they know i am there"

[Korruptor]

I would edit your post and take out the mention of your account name unless it's the not the real name.

So you've done nothing else that would have prompted this 72 h ban?

[Qlimax]

Please keep us posted on responses from Blizzard regarding the reason for the suspension and discrepency between GMs and Customer Service.

I appreciate your response and I hope that you can multi-box soon,

Qlimax

i havent done anything! and they guy on the phone said "since 4 of the accounts are banned i assume its because you are multiboxing" he said multiboxing was considered an exploit..

[keyclone]

sounds like a job for ... VYNDREE !

[Eteocles]

Sounds like you ganked a GM's player character lol; tell them Blizzard has PUBLICLY stated Multi-Boxing 5 characters is 100% legal and if they don't provide evidence otherwise you're gonna throw a major Customer Service Forum shitstorm and chances are they'll be reprimanded for opinionated and instant final bans.

Speaking of Final Bans, why are they instantly perm-banning you? They usually go with 3 strikes and you're out...72hour ban, few days ban then permanent...and that email says stuff about exploiting the economy rather than pvp-related GM's opinions so it makes me wonder if this is really the reason you're banned...just gives off a whole "VAC Forums - I was banned cuz my brother was on my acct and must've downloaded cheats!" vibe, no offense :p

Edit: And funny you should word your post like that Keyclone...I've got a post coming later tonight after I get home and have access to youtube that's related to that ;)
