Ok so first of all hello everyone. I want to ask something. In my main account ( i don't use this account for playing games or else , it's only for security to my main account if something happens and i mostly browse forums on this account ) i was playing Arenas with Fuse , i bought granades from the shop ( E Button ) and mistakenly / wrongly launched them :/ One of my teammate kinda burned a bit and i also burned a bit too ( it was thermite grenade ). I know how this sounds so so stupid but i don't wanna get a ban , maybe they reported me for sabotage or else... I don't even have an AFK punishment ( i never got a ban or suspension , i always play by rules ) and i really don't wanna get a ban because of this reason. It sometimes happen with some legends ( like Horizon ) but i REALLY don't do it by purpose , why would even i ? Sometimes my hand just wrongly clicks Horizon's tactical and when there was a gap they all starts to swear ☹️ Why would i want to cause a fall to them ☹️ These situations only happend 2-3 times but i'm kinda curious that will i get banned because of these reasons ?

@DDSNG216 Hey there welcome to AHQ! When it comes to grenades you can not touch your teammates. So they can run through thermal arc stars and frags without being affected. You can only take damage from grenades if they are thrown by you yourself or an enemy.

Lots of those occasional spawn room bugs in arenas, though. Spawning on the wrong side, etc. Wouldn't shock me if their thermite damaged their team mate once before the doors opened!

I really didn't know that , i thought they also effect my teammates because it effects me. I'm so glad that someone replied that quick and that helpful 🙂 Thanks a lot again ! I'm gonna pick your reply as the answer of my question because your reply is really helpful ! Btw about the second topic , sometimes i make so stupid mistakes like using Horizon's tactical wrongly and we fell to the space :/ Or fusing Fuse's tactical / ultimate ability in a wrong direction and... you probably guessed what happend ☹️ Will i get banned for these if someone reports me or else ? Just like i said , i don't even got an AFK ban ( i always play by rules and always will ) my favourite game is Apex Legends and i both spend too much time and too much money which i'm happy to , but i'm afraid that i may got a ban because of these silly reasons :/ I hope you will reply again , thanks in advance 🙂

@DDSNG216 No you can not be reported for a play style. If you find it thats the way you wish to use it then that is just that. When I play Horizon I actually use her Q for multiple purposes. One is a door blocker they can not go in a door if the Q is in the middle of it. If inside a building ill throw it on a enemy to pin them to the roof. If im on top of a building with a pills and i see a enemy is about to loot one of the pills I will throw it on them to toss them off the building. So how players use their ability is on them. While teammates may complain it was wrong or used wrongly is normal though. But can you get into trouble for it? No, as long as your not purposely sabotaging the game by throwing teammates off the map and such.

Tho throwing teammates mistakenly / wrongly from the map will cause a ban ? Like it only happend once but i'm kinda scared... I sometimes forgot that there is a blank on the map and want to use tactical but when there is a blank on the map which i didn't saw my teammates can fall from the map / i fall from the map :/ Man i never ever want to sabotage , sometimes the maps can be really confusing.

@DDSNG216 It may not cause a ban if it is something that is random. Mistakes do happen. I am sure when it comes to those type of reports they will check to see how many times this has happened. So they will see if someone is purposely doing this or total mistake.

Unlikely that you'll get banned from it. A popular streamer intentionally did this on stream a few weeks ago and didn't get any repercussions from it.

@E9ine_AC Thanks a lot for your answer ! Like i said , these situations / mistakes only happend 2-3 times max. or maybe even once ( my memory sucks tbh ) so as you said they will check and understand the situation. You are right , just wanted to double check ( because i love the game and don't want a ban , i have never banned 'cause i always play up by rules ). Btw i just purchased Octane Edition which is great !
