So, I got suspended on my playstation account for the third time and the same category (verbal abuse). I regret this and I want to change from this but am worried its too late. Is it guaranteed to be a ban after the third ban in the same category, regardless of the time in-between of the suspensions? Meaning, I am always on my last straw? I do not plan on ever using playstation messages ever again to avoid whats been happening to me and due to the fact that no matter I am the harrasser, playstation looks specifically at the message reported (not the whole conversation. Knowing that I am on my last straw, is not using the message system enough to avoid this? I dont know what to do if I actually get perm banned so I am willing to do whatever to not lose the stuff I progressed on and the money I have spent, including the money I have in my account. I get mixed messages on whether bans are appealable (not suspensions, perm bans). I was told by a sony support member that they are (for verbal abuse) but then told they werent by others. If I do end up going back on my account after this, is it worth it? With my luck, there will be a way, I have a bad feeling that somehow I will get suspended/banned again. Is it worth the risk to that or should I just make sure I dont lose my games and money atleast and make another account (I REALLY WISH THIS WASNT AN OPTION) and start playing on that, making me restart EVERY game --__--. Do you think overtime, if the moderation team is actual people, and, if I get suspended again, they will see that I havent gotten suspended in a long time (giving me another chance)? Lastly, If I am to continue to play on the main account, risks aside, do you think I can download the games in my main account to an external hardrive in which in the case it gets perm banned, I get just redownload the games into an alt account (like gamesharing). I missed out a few questions bc i forgot but ik this is a longgggg question.

I don't mean to trigger anything but, what risks? It sounds like the only risk is you not being a nice person online. Sounds like you can't help it.

I'm not sure if copying your games to use on a sub/different account is going to work as I think the account the games belong to needs to be active i.e not banned, to keep the games unlocked for use by someone else. But I could be wrong about that.

@TheIdleCritic No trouble, I deserve all the critism there is here even if I was baited or not- Doesnt matter. im the idiot that fell for it and got the consequence. when I say risks, I mean just the fact that im on my last life. If I take an oath and I never do use messages or ofc say anything in partys, I will still feel like its risky because there is always, always, a chance that something could go wrong (maybe a message I sent years back) and I lose everything that I have on playstation. Its just the feeling that there is no reinforcement and I will not use messages ever. I just want more reinforcement to stay on my account, I really, really dont want to make another account. Its just the thought that Im on my last string and if that string breaks, the devestation will be multiplicitive the longer im playing on the account. so thats why I am asking whether I should stop it now or go with the risk, never use messages again, and hope nothing happens. IT is 100% my fault that it got to this point, I never thought it would, I am and always try to be nice most of the time and get sick of being mean and angry cuz it doesnt get you anything.

If you're able to control yourself and not react and take the bait from other players, and like you said, not use messages anymore then stick to your main account. It would be a shame to lose progress on all your games.

If you don't give people a reason to go back to older messages and report, then everything will be fine.

If you can't then it's probably best to take the loss, stay off your main and start a new account where you can at least still play all your games you have bought so far.

For me losing all the games is a bigger deal than having to restart them.

Sorry if I still haven't understood your questions, and sorry I can't be of more help. Good luck.

The reporting system can be pretty one-sided. Just stay away from messaging completely. Whenever you get mad, just stop, take a breath, and count to ten. Helps me.

If you do that, I don't see any reason you can't freely play on your account worry-free.

@UnlimitedSevens Yea thanks man, Im never using messages again and partys were never a problem for me, hopefully my account is good. Your right about the reporting system but we dont have much power to change it, I wish they looked at the whole conversation if their gonna do a "full investigation" like they say they do.
