FIV36 If there is no in-game setting to change something, it is best to avoid using anything outside of the game to change it, (which this does mean that using scripts is not allowed).
If you had used a script to play Apex, then that would be seen as cheating, and thus would result in a permanent ban, (and for that reason, I had removed the script from your posts).

We spent 20 days appealing. Every single channel was closed. In the end, we gave up.
When we made the new accounts, we were extra careful. No boosters. No suspicious software. We played until 9:30 PM, everything was fine. Went to sleep feeling hopeful.
Today, we opened the game with excitement — and found both new accounts banned.
If you have an account that is banned, then playing on a new account is called ban evading.
Which to define ban evading, that is when you do anything to bypass a ban, (and that does include playing on a new account after being banned). Furthermore, every game company does not like it when a player bypasses their ban, so typically the ban ends up becoming permanent for every account involved with the ban.

Using scripts is not allowed in Apex, (and in this case), the script was modifying your connection to the point where you were getting an unfair gameplay advantage, (which would be considered cheating).
FIV36 wrote:Therefore, we need "accelerators," also known as network optimizers. They optimize routing to make data travel along faster paths, making the gme smoother. Many accelerators are paid, but I don't have money, so I used AI to write a free accelerator script. In my understanding, this is no different from paid ccelerators; it is just a tool to make the game less laggy.
Paid or not, scripts are not allowed.
FIV36 wrote:Accelerator scripts are not the same as cheating software. Chng is to win; accelerators are just to be able to play normally. If we get permanently banned for not understanding the rules, and even new accounts can't escape this, it illy too hard for newcomers and kids like us.
While it may not be the same thing as using a cheating software outright, a script can give the player an unfair advantage, (which is not allowed).

When launching Apex, the game should automatically connect you to the nearest game server, (so there should be no reason to use a network accelerator):
- eu-central-1: Frankfurt
- us-east-1: North Virginia
- us-east-2: Ohio
- me-south-1: Bahrain
- us-west-2: Oregon
- ap-east-1: Hong Kong (This one should be the nearest to you)
- sa-east-1: Sao Paolo
- ap-northeast-1: Tokyo (This one should be the next nearest to you)
- ap-southeast-1: Singapore
- ap-southeast-2: Sydney (This one should be the next nearest to you)
Here is a visual of where each server is located:

Because you were altering your connection, (which can be seen as a gameplay advantage, and thus would be considered cheating).

If using an accelerator is considered cheating, all Chinese players, including professional players, should be banned. I would like to ask, if you do not want Chinese players to play games, why not lock this game? Many players have been banned because of their accelerators, and perhaps I am one of them because I still don't know what I did wrong. It's funny, right? I have played Apex for over 8000 hours

LaskDied When I had posted my reply, I had assumed that the network accelerator was giving the player a gameplay advantage, (rather then it being more of a VPN to be able to play the game).
So to clarify things better, any script that modifies gun recoil, alters your movement, shoots weapons you, or overall gives you a gameplay advantage is not allowed, (while simply using a booster/VPN, should be fine from what I understand now).
That being said, FIV36 you did share screenshots of other two other scripts, so if either of those were reducing, (or removing), your gun recoil, changing how you can move, etc., then that is most likely what the ban was for, (besides ban evading your first ban).

Midnight9746 Thank you for your reply. I am only 13 years old and really don't understand these things.🤔 I am just using an accelerationpt from Watt Tools that was written for me by AI; I only know that it makes the game run smoothly. The screenshot I uploaded is just the interface of that accelerator, and are no other scripts. If it modifies recoil or movement, I have no idea about it, and I don't want that kind of advantage. I just want the game to be smer. What can I do now? Thank you.

Midnight9746 Thank you for the detailed explanation. I am only 13 years old, so I really don't understand these rules very wellrding server latency, the data you posted is the "ping value," but for us, the bigger issues are packet loss and instability. With 100-3latency plus packet loss, the game becomes: shooting without dealing damage, teleporting back to the original spot while walking, and teammates' voices cutting in and out.
For accelerator is not about "gaining an advantage," but about making the game playable. Many Chinese players use accelerators, including some professional players—not to win, but just avoid lag.
The script I used only stabilizes the network; it does not modify recoil, movement speed, or anything like that. If this is still against the rules, I pt that. But I really wasn't trying to cheat.
This is Microsoft's official booster
The acceleration script I had DeepSeek help me write at first
I can help you write a script to launch Apex Legends in conjunction with Watt Accelerator. Here are several different versions of the script for you to choose from: Windows ch Script (.bat)
I use
It looks like there is a syntax error in the script. Let me provide a simpler and correct Watt Toolkit script: Corrected Apex Acceler
Okay, I have seen the key information. Your brother mentioned a fatal detail in the second appeal: "2. I enabled the acceleration script of Watt lerator. The acceleration script was written by me using DeepSeek low-code, but I can guarantee that it is a legitimate acceleration script." Now I must tell you the truth: ipt" outside the game—whether it is just for optimizing the network or not—will trigger an anti-cheat ban if detected injecting into the game process. Apex's anti-eat system (Easy Anti-Cheat, EAC) is very sensitive. It does not distinguish between whether you wrote it "to optimize the network" or "to aimbot"s long as it detects a program attempting to modify or interact with the game process, it may ban you directly.
Now I just want to ask: if I want to continue playing Apex, is the only way to change computers😥,or help me
