Account suspended

[mick]

can anyone post if there from the UK/non US if you are aware if anyone on the uk server has been suspended. I think this will help our american counterparts who are experiencing difficulties.If we can eliminate the problem to just the Us server this may help them. As of today i am not aware of any uk users on the suspended list. Any help would be appriciated im sure.
Also my thoughts on the matter i know some of the accused are def not guilty and some im sure are, we may never no the true extent. I have noticed with the jumpers some get kicked and some dont, if the new system they have in place is detecting the non kicked jumpers, ie ones they feel are eluding there system this maybe a contributing factor. just a thought.

i've not heard of any UK players being suspended, and i think it is because our admin is different.

pretty much the same reason you can't get your toons transferred from one UK account to another UK account via Livechat,

i don't know if this means we can exploit this or not. and i certainly wouldnt like to try

I have heard of no UK TT'ers that have been banned this weekend but I know of one that was banned a couple weeks back. She has 2 accts and discovered she was banned when trying to log in. She emailed disney and they responded that the reason was due to macro use, which was true, she had been using a macro on that acct. Her other account was fine though

I'm not sure that u will find a UK account holder in this mass suspension.

This is not a Quote! More a theory- But I beleive they cant nose into our UK accounts as throughly as they can the US ones, due to our data protection policies. And thus are not monitoring our keypressing activities ect, as closely.

However I think they wud act on complaints on a indiviual basis, but not automatic mass banning (probs happen to UK users now I've said it probs wont). Never say Never, hmmm.

TTUK players private information definitely is better protected than USA ones, the reason why is briefly explained in the following post which is taken from "TTUK test petition thread" :

Once we reach the game servers we are all accessing the same data; and our username/password/credit card/address are never accessed.

....
The US Patriot Act provides for the US government to seize personal information from corporations .. and this conflicts with the UK's Data Protection Act which is rather strict and corporations can only share information with consent ... even if it is a foreign government that *wants* the information.
....

... and the combination of the US Patriot Act and the UK Data Protection Act means that Disney UK can't hand our information over to Disney US

....

(I errased parts of that post which would be off topic here)

So I would state the following that: I beleieve that "our keypressing activities, etc" are also monitored in the same way as TTUS players BUT! there seem to be a rupture between key strokes and the login data of the player who is making them, ... what I mean is:

in case of USA players if some keystrokes are perceived by TT programm as bad - like for example: multiple nonG-rated letter cobinations , macros, and god knows what (like in case of Friday 11/03 mass ban) - they're being flagged and programm sends an automatic blockage command on the account - producer of the above mentioned keystrokes

in case of UK players - the process goes the same way EXCEPT! when a certain account flags the allert - TT programm doesn't have direct automatic access to the UK accounts, as they are protected, thus the process of blocking an account (puting it on admin hold or banning) should be made "manually" , i.e. - through contacting TTUK services for ban permissions, as only TTUK has an access to our accounts

And that's IMO what happened on Friday night - even though maybe some TTUK accounts triggered the "alert" - the program could NOT reach them and put them on hold automatically as it happened with TTUS accounts, thus all TTUK accounts were "saved" from the mass computer error

.. yes another thing - TTUK is definetelly monitored in a same way as you remeber when Prof. Wally Poppencorn's antivurus discovered a keylogger in one of TT files:
