Permanent ban is the most severe punishment not only in World of Tanks, but also in any other game. It is unlikely that anyone will like to block a player’s account forever, but at the same time they give it out for a reason, but only for the most serious violations of the agreement and game rules. Moreover, many people receiving a permanent ban sometimes sincerely do not understand why they received such a lock.
That is why it will be useful for everyone to find out basic information about the features of such a lock.
What it is?
A permanent ban is an indefinite block, that is, a punishment that does not provide for the possibility of further breakdown. It is issued for the most serious violations, so the ordinary player is practically not in danger of getting it, and you should not worry about this.
Among all existing types of blocking, this, for obvious reasons, is the most serious and significant. Moreover, not only for the reason that it is unlimited, but also because in the overwhelming majority of cases, such bans are categorical. WoT accounts cannot be returned.
In other words, having received a ban for a week for some minor actions, you can still somehow dispute it through support, but with permanent blocking, often no one will even consider your proposal. There is only one reason for this - in most cases, such a decision is carefully thought out and weighed beforehand.
Account transfer
WoT accounts can only belong to a specific person, and transferring them to the wrong hands is strictly prohibited. In fact, there are situations that even after the message "I’m the owner’s brother" you can get a lock. After all, this already indicates that the account was transferred to the wrong hands.
At the same time, it is worth noting that such a block in the overwhelming majority of cases is issued after the introduction of any messages in chats that are monitored by moderators and representatives of the administration. And at the same time there are a lot of "black markets" on which accounts are exchanged and sold regularly with minimal risk of blocking.
The same applies to the sale of clans, since such messages can also often be found in the game chat.
Data Extrusion
A permanent ban in World of Tanks is periodically issued to various scammers who try to steal data from other users by any means. Even for a simple message, “say your username / password” can already be banned for a rather long period, not to mention the fact that some even try to threaten users with reprisals in real life or some other way (hacking mail, account, etc.). )
The administration, not only in WoT, but in almost any other game, regularly indicates that moderators or some representatives of the project management will never need personal user data, therefore it is impossible to disclose it to anyone in any case.
Insults
In general, there is much debate about whether they can permanently be banned for any insults. In fact, such situations happen periodically, but they relate mainly to those cases when a player actively and publicly tries to humiliate or severely insult the administration or the management of the project as a whole.
This is quite natural, because each person has feelings, and, receiving some negative statements in his address, some administrator can react too harshly in response and give an eternal ban. However, it is worth noting that this case refers to those in which there is still the opportunity (but not a guarantee) to return your account back - it’s enough to sincerely apologize to the administration through the Support Service.
Cheating
The most common reason today is why players are sent to perpetual blocking. Recently, it was to World of Tanks that various programmers have released a huge number of the most diverse cheats, providing a significant advantage over ordinary players. It is natural that the use of such programs for people playing honestly is an extremely unpleasant phenomenon, therefore, in most cases, the administration punishes this with a permanent ban.
It is worth noting that cheating is mainly determined by the system in a semi-automatic mode, so filing any appeals or other attempts to return your account are often completely pointless.
At the same time, it makes no difference whether you used cheats to get any combat advantages (increased damage, money or vision through walls, etc.) or just activated a bot that went into battles and played in your place - the system recognizes everything types of programs and regularly upgraded, so at any time you can get a sudden lock.
Inappropriate behavior
Of course, this is a fairly broad concept, which includes not very significant misconduct, for which you can not even receive any punishment, in principle, but there are also things for which they will forever be banned.
In particular, this applies to the propaganda of Nazism or any terrorist organizations. An example is the recent blocking of a large number of players who were members of one of the largest clans, who on May 9 decided to build their tanks in the form of a swastika and distribute this photo on the Web.
