So whats your excuse for joining a passworded room and ruining a close scrim?
Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you should. This community is hurting enough as it is.
7 days is really nothing. It could have easily been a month. Lesson learned? -

So instead of asking them to leave or even kicking them from the room, u decide to ban them?
Obvious power abuse. -

Obvious power abuse.
They filled up the room and started votekicking us all.
When 5+ people enter a room all at the same time its pretty obvious they're not going to leave when you ask nicely. It was malicious and it was dealt with. Lesson learned? -
The Game was passworded for a reason.
It was leaked or guessed and players joined and proceeded to not play and vote-kick everyone out of the game.
This is not the kind of behavior we want to condone from the players in our game. Password guessed or not, you can still face action against your account if you act in a manner which is impeding on the enjoyment of the game for other people.

Agree with you but... 7 days ARE something for a real player! -

There is one more lesson to be learned out of all of this.
If you want to play in a private room. Make the password something that is more secure.
If you want to play in a private room, make sure that the people you are playing with are ones who don't "leak" the password to anyone else.
Since there really is no more to be said on this, I'm going to close the subject.
