No - they can't ban you for network/router settings. And besides, this is PC players only.

I'm getting the feeling that my account might not last past 2017.

 

Mind explaining what exactly happened that might have warranted the ban? Did someone drop cash on you? Was it money bags or Securoserv CEO payment? And the million dollar question, did you bank the modded money?

i dont expect you to realise that you can have multiple accounts.

 

i dont see any arguments here anyway.

 

keep beta

 

In case you haven't read (and I'm guessing you probably haven't), multiple accounts are a violation of gtaforums.com rules, which ironically makes your own argument invalid.

 

We're done here.

Well its definitly not the problem that he banked the money (thats actually what the support told me to do) also probably not that he recieved the modded money (i got 7 Million they removed it and im not banned, yet).

[am krooked]

Hmmmmm, I have a feeling I might not have my account around soon. I know I've been getting reported a ton after the explosive bullets were added.

[RetardOfTheYear]

Just looked at my profile, as i said before my crew rank was bugged since a while (more than a year and a half ago) I was rank 3300+ as crew, which never affected my real char rank ever by the way, it was like living on his own, but this crap may be the thing that got me targeted for ban and wiped out.

 

My crew information is showing ridiculous numbers such as 74959 days of crew time and -395million rp ( I actually remember seeing over 2 billion rp on my profile once, which of course wasn't reflecting on my char rank) My highest ever rank as a char was 170, and I used to delete and create other char from scratch (liked the early grind) often, like more than 10 times over the course of my playtime, my chars ranged from lvl 30 to lvl 170 before i deleted them or lastly, got banned and wiped off.

 

To all that got banned, could it be that your crew stats were funky as well ?

Banked money does shows up on the in-game internal stats, wallet money doesn't.

Consequently, banking money triggers flags on the transaction system which might warrant your account for a future readjust (or nowadays straight ban) depending on the amount and the source.

 

That's how the current PC anti-cheat flags player who just got modded money freshly dropped on their wallet and then banked/spent in a short time-span.

 

However, it appears that instead of readjusting thousands of accounts, they decided to change their internal policy AGAIN and give out bans + resets instead.

 

Now I'm slowly banking 100k of the modded money per day hoping doesn't warrant me a permanent ban.

Sorry to ask, but are you sure you're looking at the right platform?

[Jimbatron]

Not to be melodramatic, but honestly if the reports are true - that non-TOS-violators are getting banned wholesale with no means of appeal, and their accounts wiped - this is class-action lawsuit territory. Yeah it's just a game. But on the other hand, some of these accounts undoubtedly have bought shark cards;

 

Better Business Bureau. A consumer protection group that helps you out when a business screws you over.

 

Unfortunately they are almost certainly covered by their own T&C we all agreed to. They will give shark card money back to reset characters after the suspension is over to avoid falling foul of that point. BBB might still be worth taking a look at though. Even if there is not a clear legal case they may still investigate.

 

 

 

pc master race needs proof of income or the IR*S will wipe their character holy sh*t C*

He doesn't have to prove his innocence, R* needs to prove that he is guilty

 

That's how it works in real life

In a court of law and civil courts in many countries. GTA Online is a de facto absolute dictatorship. Rockstar makes the rules and their User Agreement that we all clicked the checkbox without reading allows them to change the rules whenever they want and be final arbitrator to any dispute. I'm not defending them, I'm pointing out what the reality is.This unfortunately is correct.

 

However there another angle. If a faulty algorithm is banning a lot of legit players then that's a PR disaster for R*. Especially if as suggested players with a very high rank are vulnerable, then they are arguably the most loyal customers who play the most. It could put many players off for good. Why invest all that time if you might lose progress for good? In some ways I hope the problem is more widespread then they are more likely to be forced to fix it.

 

I've said it a few times but it beggars belief that they don't properly review a case manually before a character wipe. I can understand an automatic 30 day suspension to stop cheating because you can't manually look at every account for dodgy stats - but then you can always rescind the ban on a case by case basis if a few innocents get accidentally swept up.

 

I've seen algorithms for managing data at work royally stuff things up. It's a great time saver 95% of the time but you always need someone checking the results for the 5% of the time it does something wrong the programmer didn't (and perhaps couldn't realistically) anticipate.

That's the thing - nothing out of ordinary happened. I didn't play a lot before gunrunning, last time I met a cheater who dropped money was 6 or more months ago, he was able to spawn a bag which gave me something like $50k and then I exited. Since then, nothing, then gunrunning, I did some heists, preps, and gunrunning/ceo work. Actually if you think about it, during one heist another player was sorta invincible and moved kind of fast, but how am I supposed to know(just because he didn't die or the game lagged I should call him a cheater?). I didn't even know there's bulletproof clothes available in the store, I thought all of them are cosmetic items. Then on another day like I said there was another cheater in a public session, I was doing a resupply, he locked me in a cage, took all my weapons, and kept spawning cops on me. Nothing I could do but exit. Lots of other people were in that session. Since then I kept unlocking upgrades by fast tracking, resupplying and waiting, nothing special. And at the night of the ban maybe something happened, a cheater joined my session and did something while I was asleep for example. I can't know that. I only remember I woke up 2 hours before the ban and resupplied the bunker by buying resources. Then immediately went back to sleep, didn't check my balance or who was in the session. So, bottom line - I didn't have non-legit money 7 hours before the ban, and I don't know what happened during these 7 hours(my guess is nothing happened and it's just cheat detection system f*cked up).

This interests me. As you say, purchased Shark Card funds are still on account after a reset, but where would R* stand after a permanent ban? A ban which they refuse to explain and refuse to allow to be appealed. At that point they are permanently withholding paid for content.

 

I don't wish a ban upon anyone, but I do hope someone who has caught a ban and who has spent a significant amount on Shark Cards has the time and inclination to take this issue as far as possible.

Put some paragraphs there Watson!

 

Well anyway... from the looks of it, might have been something related to money drops or a cheater edited something internal on your account.

Darth for example got his sentence with Securoserv CEO 50k payments, those go STRAIGHT INTO your bank account and so far appear detected even if you didn't receive them willingly. No way to be certain if the same happened to you on those 7 hours since they wipe your stats.

[-LN-]

My condolences, Darth; this wasn't a nice thing to read.

 

It's all because you're a free-loading, anti-sharkcard buying philistine; R* doesn't care about their customers as long as they're raking in more and more money. They know they have so many addicted that they will gladly start over even after being banned and many might even purchase sharkcards instead of grinding. It's a sick, flawed system--R*'s handling of the PC platform as a whole seems to be god-awful and if enough speak out, this could all easily backfire on them. Let's hope, anyway.

 

I don't know what's worse though, how R* treats their customers over these things and refuses to give them specific reasons or ways to plead their cases or those who will gladly defend R* no matter what they do. Both are equally disturbing.

[Mrs. Buzz]

Regarding all the thoughts about the false ban might be triggered by a high level:

 

A lot of my friends are in the lvl from ~600 to ~1,100 legit (me ~700 and I know/play with them since April 2015 on PC) and none of them are affected. Those I've mentioned earlier which got affected are lvl from 120-500 something. All of them either joined or created solo public lobbies regulary by Firewall for I/E-VIP-MC stuff etc. and/or participated in lots of DC's at the end of PS-final. I don't know if they use(d) rubberbands to stay online, but some used the TV method for a while (incl. me). As far as I know, none of them did cardupes, but most - even not all of them - got random money drops and RP-boosts which got corrected by hand from the support or at least by the latest DLC update.

 

I still use the Firewall for my 1st login and here and there to create a fresh lobby for me and my friends. So I doubt that's a poiont, too.

 

Still a strange situation, though.

I was tipped off about all this on reddit.

 

Just logged in. My character is intact on PS4! PHEW!!

 

 

I meant on the Social Club, but either way I'm glad you're okay
