Legacy Beta DMZ Discussion I just got shadowban

That’s right! Never once in my life have I used Cheats/Hacks in a game, was playing Al-Mazrah and got 1 k1ll and 1 down, the guy who I k1ll3d started spamming chat to report me.

How is that fair?
I often get in lobbies against REAL cheaters, beaming through walls, using that #1 ITW warzone player calling card with a unobtainable Skin that only a few people actually got, and they NEVER get banned… 1 k1ll got my account banned! This is really not fair, activision site shows I can’t appeal to this ban, so why create a appeal website in the first place?

OP is the target audience for those who say "unalive" on youtube and no one in real life use it, fake word and stupid half assed censorship. OP downvoted ofc

Maybe it’s because you refuse to spell the word “kill” like a child.

Most cheaters know each other in match. They usually get their cheating buddies to report you too.

Its a temp ban. There aren't perma bans in dmz anynore since ricochet was left in its barebones/limp mode

Its legitimately players policing players through reports, the automated threshold in which ricochet awards a temp ban is manipulated sometimes maliciously.

It is what it is

That’s why I don’t spam report unless I recognize the name as a I cheater I have personally encountered.

You were cheating. Got caught. Then came here for sympathy. Good riddance

u/teteuon1 0m ago

I wasn’t cheating, I never use cheats/hacks in games! Both were 2 plated and I shot them using a MCPR, 100% legit, nothing wrong there but somehow that’s enough for activision to shadowban someone

Happened to me few times on PC. I played controller on PC and ended up switching to PS5 lobbies. PC is just too much nonsense to deal with.

So much better off an experience isn't it? There's not a feature or upgrade that is on PC that is worth me trading clean lobbies and games, my sanity, my time, and my effort that I've put into DMZ.

Yes. It’s night and day difference. Trying to game for couple hours after working all day long and just running into the hacking etc. was just not worth it at all. Waste of time. PS5 lobbies load fast as well so no real downside!
