Im apparently banned and am confused on how this works, saw one post about hours not calendar days, does that mean I have to play the game for x amount of hours before I can buy cars again?
Hours make up a day, as in 24 hours = 1 day. The ban may say you’ve got a 7-day ban, but in reality it is precisely 168 hours from the time it is put into place by the developers. That is, if you’re banned at 10 a.m. on July 10, for posting (for instance) a drug Vinyl on July 8, 2015, then the first ban “day” doesn’t expire until 10:01 a.m. on July 11. And so forth.
This type of ban blocks you from participating in online play at all for the time period (days and hours) specified. Don’t go for a second ban, which is 30 days (720 hours).
