EA has quietly made things a little easier (http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2012-04-16-ea-reviews-origin-ban-policy) for those banned from its digital Origin service, allowing even those scorned by the company to access single player content in purchased and downloaded games. Previously, gamers who behaved badly on official EA forums or otherwise caused their accounts to be revoked were locked out completely, but now EA is saying that by switching the Origin client over to offline mode, players can at least play bought games by themselves.
To get back online, players will need to appeal the ban, for which instructions can be found here (https://help.ea.com/article/information-about-banned-or-suspended-accounts). EA does say that most bans are only temporary, but just in case you want to speed up the process, we'll say this: Offering crop sacrifices to an idol of John Ritticello certainly can't hurt.
