Just wanted to rant a little about the PSN. Today I tried to log on to my PSN account for yet another round of enjoyable shoot 'em up in Socom 4 online, but was surprised when I got an error message that read: "This account and been temporariy suspended", when I attempted to log on. So, I called Playstation and they informed me that my account had been flagged by a moderator because my online ID, 'BigDaddyFatSac' was inappropriate for use on the PSN. Long story short . . . I pissed off a moderator in a game on Socom 4 and he flagged my account for deletion citing that my screen name was offensive to other users on the network. I didn't do or say anything vulgar to offend this guy, (yes, it was a guy . . . I heard him speaking in the lobby). . . the only thing I could come up with is that he was angry because I was totally owning him during the game. He was sniping in the same hiding spot, thinking that he was being clever, so I made it my mission to keep him out of this spot by shooting him in the face everytime he would get in it. He sent me an in-game message that was basically just calling me out and using explicatives to describe me and the way that I play, to which I replied "maybe you should just get a new game?" Who are these moderators that have the power to flag the accounts of people that enrage them in online games . . . I couldn't help that I was just better than this guy. I've been using the online ID: BigDaddyFatSac since the first Socom game came out in 2002. So, I that has been my playstation online identity for almost a decade. I feel totally cheated and now I've lost all my trophies and friends from my PSN account. I have to start completely over! Does anyone know if I can appeal this, if so who do I contact? This in a total injustice . . . it's not so much the trophies and friendslist, but my online gamer identity that I've built over the past decade is now gone over night. What's wrong with the name BigDaddyFatSac? Am I wrong? Is it so offensive that I should have my right to free speech silenced because some pimple-faced moderator living in his mother's basement somewhere has nothing better to do than suck at video games and take out his jealous rage on gamers that are better than he? Tell me what you think, I'd appreciate the feedback.
