This thread has been appropriately closed, and people who believe they were suspended or banned in error should contact Customer Support if they wish to appeal. That said, we'd like to provide a little more context. Most players using mounts or chairs to unlock waypoints are not caught in our automated bot reports. Even if they were, we do a manual review of such reports. Our team knows about this legitimate use of mounts and chairs, and we look at more contextual data to inform our review. We understand that the possibility for false positives exists regardless; that is why we encourage those who feel their suspension is unfounded to contact Customer Support. Thank you.

Thank you all for reporting the issues with the Dragon Response Missions in the Dungeon Rush event. We're investigating it, but we're at a stage in our process for next Tuesday's Wintersday release that makes it very difficult for us to safely address this issue in the live game. We'll be able to fix this for future iterations of the event, but we aren't able to fix the DRM bug this week. We sincerely apologize for the trouble we know this is causing. The specific issue, as some people have rightly deduced, is that the instance owner is getting all credit for a DRM completion. Players can either solo the DRM or take turns in private groups to work around this issue.

Good morning all, I looked into this as soon as I got in this morning. I'm very sorry, this was an oversight and those of you who were impacted by this bug should be receiving Golden Black Lion Chest Keys. If you haven't yet contacted our Customer Support team, please do. If you've already contacted them, they'll reach out via your ticket.

If you haven't yet, please reach out to our Customer Support team.

Hi all, we did correct this in the latest game build, so once you update your game client it shouldn't be an issue any longer!

Bug Fixes: Fixed an issue that caused duplicates of unique items to be awarded from Black Lion Chests. Fixed an animation issue that occurred when charr characters used certain chairs or performed certain emotes.

We just shipped the fix for this! Grab the latest build and you'll be good to go!

Bug Fixes: Fixed a server crash. Fixed an issue that prevented wisp transformations from being properly removed in Convergences. Fixed an issue that could cause the unintended failure of a tier 3 Kryptis rift event in the southwest corner of Inner Nayos. Fixed an issue that caused certain achievements to improperly display a progress notification at the daily or weekly reset time.

@Julischka Bean.7491, I am so, so sorry for the loss of your mother. I'm glad that Tyria can be a bit of a refuge for you when you need it--please keep taking care of yourself! For what it's worth, we have no issue with players working together to get through jumping puzzles in different ways, including offering guidance, teleport to friend, or mesmer portals.

Yep! It should respect the level and rarity of the weapon you're wielding.
