I was just wondering, what constitutes an account purge? Is it anyone who is perma-banned, or people who meet a specific set of requirements? I was just curious because I have noticed that there are people who have been banned, but not been purged, and then I also have seen people who were banned, and have had their accounts purged.
If you are permanently banned, you have three options: Appeal the ban Dispute the ban Do nothing Appealing the ban means you know you did something wrong and believe you should be given a second chance on the Empire. Your vaults, residences, items, rupees, etc will be reset (purged) and you'll be in the same place as a new player. It's a true second chance. Disputing the ban means you believe you were wrongly punished. If you dispute successfully, you won't be purged. Players have 7 days to dispute before they are purged automatically. Doing nothing is self-explanatory.
its up to the mod who banned you if you need to be purged or not entirely. two players doing the same thing could get only one purged
