    This forum is entirely for Battlefield 2042. There is no such thing as 'shadow banning' in this game. Either you are banned and you cannot load into the game at all, or not.

    Are you trying to say you were banned from some private servers by the admins of those servers? If so, there is nothing anyone here can do about that.

    This isn't a forum for BF1 or BFV either... Also, you're able to put all your thoughts into a single post, this isn't a chat window.

    And frankly, I don't think you know what being 'shadow banned' means. Being shadow banned is generally used on forums, it means that you can still post/reply normally but nobody else can see/respond to you...

    Their server their rules, good or bad you agree to those rules when you enter the server. Find someplace else to play, move on.

  • I think hes been banned by EA in a BF game, EA can ban u from entering ANY game u own with a certain email-log (BF4, BF1, BFV, BF2042 and so on) if u for instance get a weekly ban in ex. BF 2042.

    Been there done that 😉

    @DuaneDibbley I looked up "Shadow banning" on wikipedia, and it refers to not being able to access all available content.
    So I assume OP was banned from a player managed server. So since OP spoke about BFV I assume he is banned from a community games server.

    What is being shadow banned mean?
     
    Shadow banning, also called stealth banning, hellbanning, ghost banning or comment ghosting, is the practice of blocking or partially blocking a user or the user's content from some areas of an online community in such a way that the ban is not readily apparent to the user.
     
    It isn't that it is the user unable to access all available content. It is that the user's content is not visible to the rest of the community. Commonly used on forums/social media/etc, as a mod/admin of a popular tech forum, we've used it in the past when banning a user would lead to them making alt accounts, but if they were shadow banned they just may think that they were being ignored.
  • Well the shadow ban was lifted I'll leave it as is but certain people should not be adms on older EA servers if they us it to boost accounts and get upset why someone see what they are doing, game on men. Sqaw up boys just don't boost. Col. out see you on the Battlefield.......Cheers 

  • The shadow ban doesn't allow you to access any ea server on any platform essentially taking your ip and hence shadow banned for no reason except (a hackers or (b a adm who got caught boosting and I called him out...... But Ea has all my data and should work it out internally.... thank you BF community.....,
