Science has made us gods even before we are worthy of being men: Jean Rostand. Yeah, Atheism is a religion like bald is a hair colour!.
Classic: "The tank is the driver, the healer is the fuel, and the DPS are the kids sitting in the back seat screaming and asking if they're there yet."
Irony >> "do they even realize that having a state religion IS THE REASON WE LEFT BRITTEN? god these people are idiots"
I don't have to take responsibility because I don't care, the day they perma ban me for it is the day I'll stop playing WoW and you can silently thank in your little wittle wuvley heart that your game is that much safer from my satanic mutterings.

I didn't consider that possibility because I didn't assume that many god-fearing people (to that extent) play this game. I mean, those kinds of people burned Harry Potter books back when it became a phenomenon because they claimed it promoted witchcraft (unlike the Wizard of Oz LOL!), so how could I ever imagine they play WoW, where witchcraft exists from the way we light our fires to our sewage systems.
So OP, will you let us know what name you got banned for?
If you got an actual action (ban) for a name instead of just flagged for rename, you've either had too many characters flagged for rename, or yes it really was offensive and you're just pretending otherwise.
All you people named Hordeisgay and Clitaurus, you know what you're doing.

It's "not really offensive," so there's no need to show anyone, because he was wronged by Blizzard and a bunch of whiny tattletales. Or something like that.
Just accept the ban and be happy it's only temporary. In all of my WoW career, I have never seen Blizzard ban anyone by mistake, and that includes when they recently perma-banned my main account. Go read over the ToU and I'm sure you'll find the problem.
nope. that was an automated ban for logging in with ips not matching the address info on my battle.net account, after sending them a photo id and a piece of mail it was reversed. just posted that to show that it says your account has been closed regardless of the circumstances
and yes i had an authenticator and it didn't matter

Is this new? I log in very often using in with a different IP than the one that matches my address. My bf lives 200 km away from me and I visit him every other week. I've never been locked by doing that, or by using anyone else's network.
I've only been locked when I used two networks in quick succession of which one was satelite and one "normal".
What? You're completely wrong. You can only "see" through proxies that voluntarily report originating party and that's even if protocol allows that. HTTP have such facility. WoW game protocol, AFAIR, doesn't. And, I repeat, proxy HAS to choose to report it. If HTTP proxy doesn't add this info, you can't "see" through anything.

I find it a little stupid that they would temp ban your account for suspicious activity simply because of a failed brute force attempt - that's just asking for denial of service attacks and all the shady things that come with that. Imagine a world first race where one guild spams the other guild's login details to get them temp banned during progression? Not too far from the realms of possibility given the tactics some guilds have used in the past.
