    Ok so I was Playing fallout 76 and made an LFG post looking for oil, A resource in game and posted how many caps I had to spend for anyone selling any. Not even 2 seconds after making the post I was suspended. I'm unable to make parties, send messages or do anything for merely engaging in a very common aspect of the game. It's not like I was engaging in RMT or anything actually against ToS like many other people do in the LFG... But do they get banned? Nope.

    And to make matters worse. I can't appeal the ban either. So now not only do I have a strike on my account for absolutely no reason at all, i can't get that strike removed even though I did nothing wrong. Xbox enforcement is fundamentally broken.

    The post literally said verbatim

    "Looking for oil, I have 39k caps to spend".

    Can anyone explain how this post is ban worthy?

    Answer: My post is not breaking any rules or worthy of a ban. I just went into the LFG rules and read them in their entirety and there is absolutely nothing in the rules that states that posting a LFG for trading or selling is against the rules unless it is a post selling items for real money. I was banned for absolutely no reason.

    Ok good to know. I'll be leaving Xbox very soon. Enforcement has always been shady and now they can ban you for looking for people to trade with in a game that requires people to trade and buy from one another to get things done? This is incredibly dumb.

    LFGs are for people to find other people to engage with one another around the games mechanics and ecosystem.

    Literally been a customer for well over 10 years with a clean record of following the rules and I'm just going to be banned for something that petty and stupid? Yeah. I'll take my business elsewhere.

    Game has no in game way of finding people to trade with, and I'm pretty sure the rules around buying and selling are referring to real money transactions not in game mechanics otherwise anyone that buys or sells an item in game for in game currency has broken this rule and should be banned which is literally everyone on the console. It's a technicality. I didn't actually break any rules you just want to screw someone over and that's all there is to it.

    Did you tell the same thing to all the FFXIV online players who were suspended for recruiting for their free companies (which are clans) because enforcement thought they were referring to prostitution?

    Imagine banning your players for making posts about engaging in mechanics the game requires you to participate in.....

    To your first point. No they are banning you for using LFG in a way that isnt allowed. LFG is looking for groups (for people to play with). Its not called looking to trade/sell

    To your second point i refer back to my first response above.

    To your third point, no. It applies to any sort of selling. Whether its real money or not. The rules simply state "Sell in-game content outside of official in-game mechanisms and stores" isnt allowed. It doesnt say its allowed if its for in game currency/items. LFG is considered "outside of the official in game mechanics and store" and thus its not allowed.

    To your last point, no, they arent banning you for "making posts about engaging in mechanics the game requires you to participate in". They are banning you for using LFG in a way that has never been allowed.

    The rules are clearly laid out.

    LFG posts are only for looking for other people to play a game with. Offering to buy/sell/trade, etc. is not permitted in them. In-game trading is only permitted in-game and LFG is not considered in-game. Yes, a lot of other people do it, but they're not supposed to either and if their posts are reported, they will also get suspended.

    Suspension

    Looking for group posts are meant for looking for people to play a game with.

    They are not meant for posting anything like trading,glitching,boosting etc. & doing so is against the ToU/CoC which is why you would of been suspended.

    Why was I suspended when I put and group post for trading items inside a game when I see people do it all the time?

    Even though people do it all the time, it's a violation of the code of conduct to trade outside the in-game mechanics. LFG is not considered in-game and is only for looking for other people to play a game with. Thise other people will also get suspended if their posts are reported.
