Wait what, you're not allowed to chipdump in play chips? How does the site even distinguish between chip-dumping and typical play-money donk moves?

Which leads to the next question: Why the heck they dedicate man-power to police playmoney-games?!

chip dumping at play money is the gateway to chip dumping at real money

Because some sites (including Stars) sell play chips. They even rake the playmoney games, because they want casual players to go busto and then buy even more playchips.

Because it was too obv. We play HU. I buy in 5k then she dump me about 50, then go to bigger stakes, until she dump me a million... exp: she raise 99k I go all in 100k and she fold. Easy game -.-

I'm fully aware of that and in case the real-money games would be "clean" i wouldn't have a problem with that. Not long ago a massive PLO bot-ring got busted and i'm quite sure, that this is only the tip of the iceberg. Now tell one of the affected players that Stars is actually spending time on policing playmoney-games. I doubt they will appreciate it.

It doesn't take significantly more resources to apply an algorithm designed to find aberrant behavior to play money games, in addition to real money games. In fact, you could make the case that play money games make a pretty good sandbox for testing collusion and bot behavior detecting software.

I wouldn't say it's impossible to unfreeze your account, but I think it's very unlikely. You broke the rules for the site. If you break the Terms & Conditions that you agreed to follow, you usually get banned.
I understand that you (and most people) think playmoney is a "joke", but those games are subject to the same rules as real money games. If Stars can't trust you to play with virtual money responsibly, they are even less likely to trust you to play fairly on real money games.
