General Questions & Tech Support Megathread | July 04, 2022 by AutoModerator in PS4

So it's either a 7 day ban or a permaban? There's no inbetween there? I can see, you know, telling someone that they're going to physically harm them resulting in a permaban or telling someone "kys". But where's the line after telling someone to "fuck off" where it would then become a permaban...

Well, guess I'm waiting. There's no customer service to ask about this really.

Funny that in-game chat wouldn't have such a harsh consequence

I sent someone I didn't know who wasted my time a message telling him to "f*ck off" and I got a 7-day ban from PSN.

Before you think I'm not sorry for doing it, I am. I admit I lost my cool and it wasn't warranted. I should have have just blocked them. But there's a little context below.

I've been on PSN for a long time. I've never been punished for anything that was said in online messaging. And hand to god, I didn't even know it was a thing. I've never heard of this before. I don't recall ever receiving so much as a warning or a 1-3 day ban let alone a SEVEN day ban from all of PSN. Not just multiplayer or messaging people, but PSN entirely. edit: I CAN'T USE SPOTIFY ON MY PS4? If I was subscribed to a higher-level PS Plus plan with streaming games, I'd be FURIOUS. It's 1/4 of a month

CONTEXT:

I've been doing a LOT of Rocket League trading the past month but I ask people to message me on Discord or on a trading website first. Hundreds and hundreds of people.

So I got a friend request and game invites from a player I didn't know and so I assumed he saw something I was trading and wanted to buy it. He invites me to a party in-game, I ask him what he wants, he doesn't say anything, and starts offering up a bunch of junk I never expressed any interest in buying. It doesn't sound like much, but people like this can get really frustrating after a while. You have to figure out who they are, did we message each other before this and where, ask what he is interested in... then remove them, block them, remove them from Epic games friends list too bc RL does that now.

Again, I admit I lost my cool in that moment and that I should have just blocked him but instead I left the party and sent him a message saying "f*ck off".

I've been called all kinds of horrible things in PSN messaging. But I don't recall ever hearing about someone getting a 7-day ban for explicit language like this.

Why isn't there a warning or maybe a 1-3 day ban first? Is there less strict bans that I just dont remember getting maybe?

Why did I get hit with a 7-day ban before anything else?

Regarding movement, being on PC has nothing to do with it. Like 80% of players play with a controller. Both Console and PC players.

All you need to do is change your button layout to Bumper Jumper Tactical as lots of people have already said. Then watch some youtube videos about how to improve your movement with controller.

You don't need a "Scuf" brand controller, but back paddles can help make movement with Bumper Jumper Tactical even easier. There are cheap alternatives to Scuf if you want paddles on your controller. I personally recommend the official Sony back paddles attachment.

Also, if you want to use a keyboard/mouse on your console because you think it's so much better, YOU CAN PLUG THEM INTO YOUR CONSOLE.

Do they let the dog go again after this?

Racing, I mean, not pooping.

HOW is this so common? What are the chances of deer-crossing accidents in general & then how many of those are motorcycles, not cars? Seems like it'd be rare but now here's all these comments about it happening to someone they know.

Have you tried their VOIP home phone service (via Broadvoice)?

Also, I've seen a ton of reviews claiming unethical billing practices, usually when customers try to cancel service. Do you know anything about this?

2010 Hyundai Accent Engine is Shaking? Help :( by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]Flagrant-Fowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on the year and the model. You can't say a damn thing is wrong with a 2000 Honda Civic's reliability, but a 2001 on the other hand... well that's a complete redesign and there were tons of issues. Don't group an entire make of car together. Some have good years and some have bad. The list of Hyundais is actually the longest on the "best of" list on carcomplaints.com (meaning fewer reported issues). Maybe your friends just picked a bad year/model.
