Accounts being Blocked.

Hime on Nexon forums:

(Of course Hime locked the thread when she posted that, and banned the threadstarter from the forum.)
Assuming for a moment that isn't an outright lie to cover their incompetent/careless butts, they should have posted a notice saying this when they did it instead of leaving everyone to worry and wonder.
But seeing the lengths they are going to on their forum to lock/delete threads, redact posts and ban people (from the forum) who complain about being unfairly banned (from the game), and the long delay before giving any explanation, I'm inclined to believe it is a lie.
Either way, this sort of thing just shows what kind of people are running Nexon.

Of course it's a lie.
When there's a suspicious login to your account, it is not billingpp banned. Rather, it becomes "unverified" and you must use your email to re-verify it.
Inviting hundreds of players to spam billingpp with hysterical emails is so totally against Nexon's usual style, that it's ridiculous to expect us to believe they did that. The verification process is completely automated. billingpp emails are all read by human beings (it deals with actual money, after all). Which does Nexon prefer?

But of course it's easier to say "we're protecting you from account hackers" than "we done goofed". Not like you can prove nobody tried to infiltrate your account.

Ah well, at least item guards only cost meso now.
