Chat banned?
So yeah as the title suggest, I was banned in chat. Did not say anything worthwhile of a ban and believe it may have been a mistake as some dude was trolling. How do I appeal as I just started yesterday? (albeit made an account a few years back it seems)

Re: Chat banned?
Realm chats are control by players.

Re: Chat banned?
Perhaps it was a mistake. Realm chat is controlled by the Realm. We don't really have a global chat in game. But there is a discord. https://discord.gg/havenandhearthKrit wrote:So yeah as the title suggest, I was banned in chat.

Re: Chat banned?
Realm chat mutes are specific to the character that was muted. You can create another character (whether on the same or different account) and use the chat.
Several people have advocated for the bans to be account-wide instead. While this would still be easy to bypass, adding even just a little hurdle is a very effective way to reduce low-effort trolling.
(In YouTube livestreams, allegedly just having the requirement of "you must have been subscribed to this channel for 5 or 10 minutes" results in 90% reduction of bad actors.)
