It sounds like the Player had to Sub to even find out they was in Jail. Does that mean they are losing out on their hard earned money. It’s pretty hard going, if you pay a sub and log in after months offline only to find out that you can’t play the game you just payed for.
It’s a horrible idea.
A ban should mean a ban, but if you’ve got payed for game time left, that time should be paused for the duration of the ban.
Edit I don’t know if that’s the case in Wow, I have never been banned (surprisingly )
Why need a jail ? Make a server layout as a jail.
No interaction possible or hop outside this layer. No Token.
A snapshot of your account is done when you enter the pit. If you get out of it (like a sanction overturned in appeal) your account is restored in the previous state.
You stay there forever in a layer populated by bots and cheaters unless GM accept your appeal.
Ha ha ha ha ! Excellent it sound familiar to what my family used to say to me there was x in the fridge , how come there is nothing? did it vanish by itself ?
Me: I don’t know i swear… i am innocent, why won’t you believe me ?
Family: 'cause you can’t resist food and drink ! confess !
That V-jail thing really does exist ? What a world we live in !
