Couldnt join east realm, now cant join any?!

[JoeycracK]

I was playing yesterday and the day before yesterday ALL DAY AND NIGHT( i had just bought the game after about 6 years of not playing ) ... but the first night i got a temp ban. 3 hours

ok cool. whatever... was able to play the same night so no biggie


go on yesterday and i played all day, but then got dropped and it said check modem connection or whatever... the error you get when ur internet isnt working.

but asia worked....but not east. and i was signed on msn ect .. so my interet works..

i kept tryiing every so often to see if east would work , but nope. but after an hour or 2, i couldnt even join any realms now.. and its been over 15 hours now that this happened and i still cant join any realms? am i banned?

AFAIK the more you try while r/d the longer the temp ban lasts

Dont worry, according to a Blue post:


The restriction won't be extended, even if you try to log in during it's duration. As for not doing anything wrong, no, you didn't really do anything wrong, but it's the same idea as speeding and saying you didn't hit anyone.

Speeding restrictions are preventative, and that's pretty much what the limitations on creating new games is for-- we want to prevent bot-like behaviors to make sure that we're cutting back on them, and less empty games lingering on bnet means greater stability for the whole of the community.
