Description

Got randomly banned from all official servers

All I get is a message saying "you are banned from joining a server for 118250 minutes" etc if I try to join any official server.

Never did nothing to deserve it. Can't cheat I'm on Xbox, never trolled, team killed, gave abuse, never even got kicked out of a game etc. Seemingly took effect when I wasn't even playing.

Frankly it's totally ridiculous, tried to get a reason or solution via email. When I tried to contact the developers they told me basically to contact the developers.

Then I got sent to this 1995 lookin' form, doubt I'm getting a solution but is does explain why so many blatantly obvious bugs even end up in the game.

I play with Dragonlotion quite often on Arma, I can vouch for him, he is a good-quality player, been around for a long time.
It is common for people to votekick (so possibly also report?) , if for example you dismantle arsenals at the beginning of matches in order to relocate supplies to progress the match.. maybe this is a cause?

Hello Dragonlotion.
Please provide your player ID. Also, please use Xbox specific form next time you are reporting issues on xbox.
Regards,
Geez

Appreciate that Nautiic, I get what you're saying but I ain't done that recently.

I did kill 5-6 USA at night recently and they thought I was cheating in some way. They were all standing in the bushes having a conversation, I'm actually listening to them saying "he shouldn't be able to see us etc". It wasn't even especially dark it was dusk. I got no idea if it was anything to do with that but I'm gonna assume I've been reported for something.

Similar thing happened to another guy I used to play with systemslayer. He got completely banned, definitely didn't cheat etc. He was one of the best players and can only assume some salty people reported reported him.

I have a ban as you would if you were voted out of a game, instead of 5 mins it's for around 86 days. I can still play community servers but I'm not particularly into them. I'm actually decommissioning 2 cars away from 100% game completion, last time I played I thought ahh I'll just do that later... Later never came so that was frustrating. : /

I got no idea what my PlayerID or Xbox only form, I just got sent here via a email link.
