      BBB unable to locate business
      Hi, My name is ***, I used to play "Blade and Soul" online mmorpg game with my friend back in 2017. I quit playing because all my friends were leaving the game. This year, I was trying to get back to the game and I realized that my account was not able to be logged in. I contacted NCsoft **************** a dozen of times and they couldn't solve my issue. and the last ticket they emailed me the following "We have reviewed this account and found it participating in, or directly associated to actions that violate our operating policy. Therefore, this account has been closed and is ineligible to be reopened for any reason, under any circumstance.The decision to close this account is final. As such, any further replies or new support tickets regarding this account or issue *** not receive a response." This is unacceptable to me. First of all, I think they were being lazy and did not want to solve my issue, Secondly. I know I did not do anything that violate their policy. I was able to login and play the game until I decided not to play. I do not even know when my account was banned. please help. I believe this is a violation of my right. I will attach an image showing the email they were sending me. I personally stopped playing the game back in 2017, but NCsoft was still sending me emails about my character ***** back in 2021. How come I violated their policy if im not even participating in the game? This is unbelievable.

      In reference to an effected member of my community in-game. NCSoft is handing out strangely sensitive, even first time infraction, 3 day bans to players for one inoffensive word in a single sentence without thoroughly making sure their chat report system is not being abused. After some members of our community were affected and we had multiple people file support tickets to defend their innocence, including the people actually involved in the conversation that was reported, NC's support very quickly doubled down on their decision to still suspend *********** over a single word, which was neither a swear nor offensive. These mass reports are easy to trigger and get caught in what appears to be an automated system. There is no way someone actually looked into this and decided this warranted a 3 day ban. You need to check which accounts are triggering your chat report system because it's clearly abused. The player lost 3 days of Premium membership and benefits they are paying for and you refused to give them adequate support. I would like to note that NCSoft does nothing regarding hackers out in the open world within their games either or caught on video and chooses to spend resources on their easily abused chat report system. If they are not out banning actual players that deserve it, what is keeping them from doing actual investigations on these fraudulent reports? This company has the nerve to add a $600 outfit into their store this month, which many called out as outrageous. The price was clearly an error but they left it up for two whole days before "fixing" it, after making some players already recharge $600 worth of their in-game currency. It should have been top priority to fix this huge error. Then they offered to "fix" it for those who spent by simply refunding them back in NCoin, thus banking on the "mistake" regardless and taking advantage of those who recharged that much already. Extremely shady and disrespectful company that needs to be looked into.
