"20k caps free priv world"

I was grinding the raid boss and had reached max caps so I was trying to give them away instead of trading for an item for caps bc I have everything I need just like farming the boss and I received a 2 day suspension for it and it will not let me appeal it very infuriating I don't know what I said that got me banned

:)

If you posted that in an LFG post it's because offering to buy/sell/trade anything is not permitted in them. LFG posts are only for looking for others to play a game with. They should essentially be "I'm looking for x amount of people to play this game with"

From the look of it, it's because you used LFG to give away the free caps. You are not allowed to use LFG for selling, buying, giving away or any other type of transaction. LFG is just to look for gamers to play games with, nothing else.

That's the same reason that I stayed away from Fallout 76 I'm going to give the game a chance though

Yeah but all of fallout 76s LFG posts are about buying and trading since the game offers buying and trading in game with other players. So why did I get hit with a ban?

Good to know, I've been meaning to give fallout 76 a try.
