You can email [email protected], but I've been camped out at the Blizzard Open Tech Support forum for about a month now, and everyone who's been tagged has gotten un-tagged by waiting. Are you sure you're not getting un-tagged and then re-tagged? There was a girl who said that she was getting tagged repeatedly from entering games, opening up trade screens, quitting without trading, and then exiting that game *immediately* - she said it had happenned 5 times in a week.

Is there anything about your behaviour that seems to lead to tagging? Disconnects, maybe? That's also been pinpointed as a cause, but I've been disconnected from D2 tons and haven't been tagged, that I've noticed. Of course, since I pretty much play exclusively in passworded games, I might not notice, but the # of games seems constant for me.

Oh, and remember to forward the autoresponse you receive to the email they give you, so that you get an actual person to read your email.

Good luck!

Well i'm not really sure, i play d2 for a week, then go back to sc for the next week, then back to d2, but it seems that everyone in my f list is in a private game, but really they are in public games, this is really disappointing to me, because i like to cow with some friends and some pubby people, so we have an 8 player game.
I'll try e-mailing them, however i haven't had much luck with blizzard tech support in the past.

but i repeat,
- i have never hacked on bnet
- but i'm pretty sure i've traded for a duped item somewhere along the line

I don't think that having a duped item once should be enough to get you tagged, but having a dupe on, or in the inventory of, one of your characters might. But Blizzard's been purposefully vague about the tagging - they're not saying what exactly constitutes "unusual behaviour". Disconnects in trade screens is the only thing that I think they've confirmed.

Good luck!

I actually was tagged the other day for about 2-3 hours, I had just entered a game and someone was wanting to trade some chips or something ? I never found out because after a few seconds I couldn't do anything in the trade screen at all and couldn't exit it. So I minimized D2 and exited it.....not thinking lol. I got back on and was tagged. Now i'm fine though
