This is becoming insane. As if their "only N activations" DRM policy wasn't bad enough, now they're going to lock you out of (all!) your games if you behave badly on their forums? I wonder what classifies as bad behavior... mentioning their intrusive DRM and "go fsck yourself sideways" customer care policy?
I, for one, will never buy an EA title again. I was skeptical in the past because they've butchered smaller game companies et cetera, but this is the final drop. Furthermore, I hope this will cause people to pirate the heck out of their games, showing that the copy-protection only hurts legitimate users... and hopefully this could cause some revenue loss as well (though I doubt it; there's too many sheeple around who don't understand / don't care.)
