I fail to see some sort of logic here. Let's see...
1) Person posts something on forum, which roughly amounts to snarky, ill-constructive criticism.
2) Person gets 72 hour ban on forums. Rough punishment, could have been handled better. And in a more mature manner.
3) Person ALSO gets a 72 hour GAME ban, because the game account is tied to the forum account.
Now, how is it that an account on a FORUM equates to an account on a GAME? Aren't they supposed to be two separate entities? And if not, then how is it legal that these two entities are merged? It just seems to me that the line between forum and game got horribly tangled, somehow.
Regardless, I will greatly reconsider buying from both of these companies. Seems as though the old Zelda imagery proves correct here - Power, without the Wisdom to properly use it and the Courage to guide its use, will always lead to corruptive and self-destructive ends.
