It's insane that on a digital storefront your entire account and purchases can be taken away for actions on the forums. Steam has something called a community ban, where you can be banned from the forums but continue to have access to your game library. gog definitely needs to implement something similar if they're going to start cracking down on wrongthink.

They have.
Read the ToS.

Changing agreement that was agree upon is highly illegal in Thailand and is punishable by law.

I'm sure that the trade agreement that Poland and Thailand is sure to suffer over this minor inconvenience.

More realistically and perhaps a bit less roundabout of a way, surely you're aware that most countries have signed, ratified, and otherwise honor contracts as writ in the form of treaties and trade agreements?

Now, Poland and Thailand may have never signed a thing, but the European Union, of which Poland is indeed a member state of, has likely entered into some kind of agreement.

Now, if you want to contact the powers/authorities that be of your country so you can pay them 600 bahts to look up a rule that you could have just found on their governmental website yourself, go ahead.

I would start at https://www.mfa.go.th/ and work from there.

I made a feature wish (name: Clarify ToS cases where GOG account is permanently banned)
I ask that they clarify cases where an account ban is possible and to implement some kind of communication ban instead.

Steam had to obey Thailand laws, GOG will have too.

As I said: They'll be fine.

(ps: And before trying to teach me something, you should first find out what my opinion about this is. There is no need to tell me what was in the TOS and what not)

All this fuzz will go away in a couple of weeks and then life on GOG will go on as it did for the last 15 years without anyone knowing or caring about what's in the TOS and COC.
Peopel are just a bit paraoid, that's all.

You should read the whole thing a bit more closely. That's what will happen first, like on Steam and you also have the eright to protest or whatever. But both GOG and Valve can completely deactivate your account as last measure.
Neither GOG nor Steam will cut you off from your games for being rude. What you do must be very serious or illegal.

If you plan to act in a way that gets you banned permanently, use two accounts.

And without action, this will be nary but sabre rattling. You want to nudge them into action then?

That's quite interesting. You don't happen to know which law specifically, do you?

I find here (in TOS) and suspect threatening Freedom of Speech by "Freedom of speech". Goind moderation to worse following worse guidelines(*). Following worse guidilines of CDProjekt (in their guidilines and else documents pdf's).

* And i see mentioning in TOS another issue. Regarding going moderation to worse. For forum issues its suggest make a Support ticket - i get it right?

GOG if your employer already cant handle real issues in Eupport tickets (month delay to answer) and now itnore Forum thread about spam bots overwhelm this forum - how new (and newer, we already lost Reports year+ ago) going to rix that?
You hire outsource like everyone else did? But they Support going worse with that. They got less time to respond PERSONALLY and they ignore text/eubject of Support tickets.

So moderation would go AGAINST Freedom of Speech ane everything else - store support and spam-defense - 2illngoing to cease to exist.

I get it right?


Nowadays Valve moderation can be abused to report innocent person in anythingm Including Fraud. Which is impossible few years ago (many years, outsource moderation is a thing for many years and anything Volunteers can do is suggest to contact Support - i did get such message after got banned on S.Community next after my ban by Volunteer moderator telling me i did nothing wrong and this is fail of Valve moderation only Support can fix).
Most of them looks like dont know languages they moderate (for example, russian forum outsource moderators bad at both Eng and russian - same issue for EA/Origin moderators and Support... end same for everyone else i suppose).

The only "improvments" i see is usual nowadays standard of telling community what to do and at same time prohibit same thing. Telling Rules that impossible to follow and call it Freedom of Speech. Shot mouths by "Freedom of Speech" is a normality we have today. And im not only about IRL but community regulations and practical moderation too.

the restaurant has to refund you if they are going to throw you out. The right to refuse service goes out the window once money has been exchanged.
How does his right to speak, hurt you in any way? I would say this post alone carries a veiled threat of censorship. You are not respecting their right to express themselves so why should your rights be respected if this is how you treat others?
It is against the rules to have more than one account.

It is also against the rules to suggest having more than one account.

In Australia we have consumer rights. Best in the world actually.

Not his right to speak, but his choice of words can. You surely are not one of the persons who say that words can't hurt?

Remember, Trump just got confined to 83 million dollars for using his right to speak against someone. So the right of speech does not outweight everything else.
There are plenty of cases where people got legally punished for what they said.

I guess in one case complying to the rules is considered to be bad and in the other case considered to be good then? Someone doing that already wants to break the rules from the beginning. One more rule break should not matter to that person.

Ok, thanks for the warning. Won't do it again :)

I am quite sure that if you go to a buffet restaurant where you have to pay first and then start acting like a sociopath, they can still throw you out and don't have to refund. Try it. Go to a "all you can eat", pay in advance, eat something and then see if you can do whatever you want.

The exchange of money not only obligates the establishment owner to do something, but also the customer. Both parties agree to the contract. He accepted the rules of that establishment when he payed. If he breaks them, it's him breaking the contract.

Did you emigrate from North Korea? Or where did you get this fetish for authority?
