HWID BANNED
I don't understand why HWID devices can log in to the game normally instead of kicking out my account? This warns me that the device is not allowed to play games! I am playing APEX on a new device t...

@阿斯莫德斯566 Is the way EA protects my account permanently banned?
Does EA's user policy prohibit players from playing games in internet cafes?
This is my account, and I have the right to play Apex anywhere and on any device while complying with player regulations
When I log in to a HWID device, does EA fulfill their responsibility by informing me of the potential risks associated with the device? When other games log in to HWID devices, they will prompt that the device has HWID!
I have played Apex for over 5000 hours without any violations. I couldn't help but want to play Apex outside, but as a result, I have been permanently banned!
Loyal players will all leave

Decisions have consequences......
"Does EA's user policy prohibit players from playing games in internet cafes?"
No, you can assuredly play at internet cafe's, however it has risks like I explained before and that is your decision and you have to deal with the consequences of that poor decision.
Me, I would never ever do this, to much risk.
"When I log in to a HWID device, does EA fulfill their responsibility by informing me of the potential risks associated with the device?"
Where is it EA responsibility to inform you? Protecting your account starts with you and using some common sense goes a long way in this.
You chose to practice unsafe gaming with an untrusted device which can lead to catching all kinds of bad things, viruses, malware and even Bans.
Practice safer "gaming" it protects you and your account.
We can argue about this round and round but in the end it is your choice and your responsibility to protect your account and the consequences are yours and yours alone.
- @Asmodeus566 "using some common sense goes a long way in this"
My common sense is that when I log in to other game companies' games on a HWID device, it will prompt me that the device has a HWID, kick out my account, and ban it for 2 hours! I am willing to accept this punishment!
I would rather have my account stolen than permanently banned!
I did not violate any of the provisions in section 6. EAC knows that my account was banned due to HWID, not cheating. I did not gain an unfair advantage from this behavior, did not undermine the fairness of the game, and did not affect the gaming experience of other players!
Speaking of account cheating, GBT's account was hacked during the competition to cheat. Why wasn't his account banned? After HAL's account is banned, it can still be unbanned. We all know that cheating is not their intention, but their account actually engages in cheating behavior. The EA user agreement targets the account, not the user themselves. Why not permanently ban their account?
So, what about my account? My account did not cheat at all, I just logged into a HWID device and did not gain any unfair advantage as a result. Why can't it be unbanned? Because I don't have any influence? Use the link I previously provided if you want to dispute the ban.
I have provided you with abundant tips as far as cybersecurity goes and it is up to you if you want to use them or not.
Each case is different and the ToS team decides how they handle them.
We cannot assist you with your account issue here on AHQ.
- @Asmodeus566 Haha, they no longer accept my appeal, haha, they have deprived me of my rights
I'm here just to vent my grievances
As I said, Apex was already dead when my account was banned
5000+hours, haha, thank Apex for releasing my disk EA forums are nonsense!
They give your information u already know about.
There is no use for admins in this Forums if they can not collaborate wit TOS team togheter to fix some issues!
TOS can not be reach .doesnt matter what your appeal looks like you get always the same answer.
EA to lazy to take care of people who spent money and time in games,i also got permabanned for saying 1 bad word.
They should at least warn you that the PC is REDFLAGGED and u know that u shouldnt be playing on that PC.
They even dont give you Information about your account if u are HWID banned or not !if u do 1000 new ACC you can still play for couple of hours till they ban your account !
EA have the worst and unprofessional response in matter of BAN/Problems !
So is just waste of time to write on forum/TOS because they are incapable to help you out!
id be blaming the internet cafe for allowing cheaters to install things on their machines.
