"Your forum account will be directly tied to your Master EA Account, so if we ban you on the forums, you would be banned from the game as well since the login process is the same. And you'd actually be banned from your other EA games as well since its all tied to your account. So if you have SPORE and Red Alert 3 and you get yourself banned on our forums or in-game, well, your SPORE account would be banned to. It's all one in the same, so I strongly recommend people play nice and act mature."

"All in all, we expect people to come on here and abide by our ToS. We hate banning people, it makes our lives a lot tougher, but its what we have to do.

Those banned will stay banned, but like most other internet services, its not that hard to create a new fake e-mail account. However, its a lot harder to get a new serial key =)"

I remember hearing about this a while ago. Pretty stupid (or extreme) if you ask me.

[Callisto]

I think it's an awesome idea personally.

[BRP]

Sounds reasonable. Though it doesn't effect me. Because I would never post on the EA forum. And... other reasons.

That's a large part of it, if I were to actually go out of my way post on the EA forums it'd probably be to discuss one of their games, not to spam niggerfagjew all over their boards. I don't think there's anything wrong with them doing that, they're just saying if you want to act like a fucking idiot go do on someone else's boards, we don't feel like dealing with it.

Might sound a bit extreme at first, but in the end, I don't think it really matter, and it's a nice way to make the troll shut up.

It could get bad if they start banning anyone who point out a flaws in their game, but w/e, if you want to bitch, there is many place to do it.

[Mayareira]

They don't ban people for stuff like critisizm, EA blows topics, etc.

[Charismatic]

I hope they come out with a MMO, then things will get interesting

[Korietsu]

Actually, they don't. GM fucked up what he said, they updated the article on kotaku.
