Tried logging in with my main account to check reward points and accidentally made a typo while putting in my password and held the enter key for 2 seconds longer than a tap - and got temp banned for a day from the forums.

i mean really? NO WHERE ELSE does holding the enter key spam login retries. - It shouldnt even be a thing. That too 2-3 seconds of it and the system auto bans you for wrong password/multiple login retries?

Edit: OH and to make it even more ret@rded.... i didnt even get to log in properly with the right password but the account got banned anyway.. so if anyone gets another persons username/login email they can just troll them by using a random wrong password and getting the account banned from the forums? Whats the point in acc safety/password changes if people get their accounts banned without even knowing?
