Player Banned for 5000 Days from Modern Warfare 3

[Valwin]

Update: Robert Bowling explained that a 5000 day ban is effectively a permaban.
When the team behind Modern Warfare 3 talked up the new banning system, they meant business.
One player, who shall remain anonymous, has been banned for 5000 days. That’s about 14 years without being able to access the Modern Warfare 3 servers. As you can see below, he has served the first two days of his sentence.

14 years​

Why not just ban him for a year?
Everyone knows that is how long a cod game lasts..

 

[Youkai]

Thats why you buy a PS3, not 360 so you can just create a new PSN account and your console isnt banned.

I think it's more about the sick banned time that is the news.
Still idk if it's worthy as news myself.

i like this guy.

Yes. That is exactly why you buy a PS3. Getting around a ban is the best reason to buy that hardware instead of the differences in games and overall entertainment.

That's a funny way of banning. Knowing myself, I'd go crazy and check back everyday in the slightest hope of secretly being unbanned or a glitch in the system (which of course would probably never happen).

Same guy whom got banned for 9,999 years from Black Ops?, probably.

 

[joshstyle]

don't worry it's only 13++ years,many other COD games will be out by then.

 

[DinohScene]

Somehow I don't feel sorry for the guy at all.

I find it, rather hilarious!

 

[Qtis]

Not surprising, just shows they have a sense of humor..

@All the hate: No one makes you buy the game.. If you don't like it, just don't buy it

Don't you mean six months?

yea news

Counter-Strike is popular from which people get VAC banned from all the time. Those bans apply to all VAC games, and so you'd think they'd be considered more important. However you don't see them being reported as breaking news.
Additionally, bans in MW3 are equally common, even if the permanent ones are actually only temporary (think a life sentence in the UK).

At least it's not till the year 2099.

 

[ShinyLatios]

Whatever, modern warfare 4 will be out next year. in the meantime the guy can play some decent quality games!

 

[kthnxshwn]

MW3 is easily more "important" than Counter Strike was or is. No matter how much you cringe over that, it's beyond true.

Keywords being "all the time." ..and yea, the bans may be as equally common, but not as humorous.

I think it's funny for this guy to be banned 5000 days, rather than never being granted access.
