Origin Bans No Longer Cover Solo Play

[Apr 16, 2012, 09:17 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

A new Electronic Arts Account Suspension Policy indicates that being forum-banned from EA's Origin service will no longer result in being prevented from playing single-player games (thanks Blend Games). Here's word:

If you find yourself with a disabled account, please note that you can still play EA games in single-player mode. For PC games you will need to enable Origin's offline mode to play games with a disabled account. Go to the settings tab in Origin (the gear icon) and select Go Offline.

If your account has been disabled, please follow the instructions in this article if you wish to appeal the action.

Hmm lets see... You pay $60.00 for a game to play it online - EA has already been paid b y YOU for said game.. You post something on the forums in a rage saying EA sucks! Get banned from Forums... No longer play multi player - Which I might add you PAID for when you handed over your $60.00 And no-one sees this as wrong in any way, shape or form?
