Linux players getting banned
Edit: Looks like they fixed the issue causing the bans. Edit 2: EA is reversing bans and sending out emails letting you know. Yay! Hello, I believe myself and a few others got banned for just playi...
@Insomnia1250 Maybe they saw your github repository 😉
Btw, a user was removed for not being a legit one.
Thank you for caring! I put a text upthere explaining my situation again, sadly.
I'm not getting any replay for the dev in the reddit comments or from EA.
Trying to get into the firing range daily, but I still banned for now </3

We should create a discord/matrix guild so we can play a nice game once its all over. Its just a matter of time. I can create one if y'all want
New answer from Thieamy on reddit:
"Quick general update: I've poked the team to see if there's any additional information we can share on progress or next steps, will update again here if/when I can. Cheers for continuing to keep us updated from your sides."
Hopefully this means that cases like mine and the ones that still banned will be checked.

Are you able to be specific about your evidence for the cheating allegation?
@NutmayrI really can't
Okay there is a chance that he/she is cheating but I'd say it's best to let Respawn decide that for themselves.
Hi. Firstly I really hope your situation gets sorted out, I've been reading the thread for a while, and I have to say your patience and persistance is somthing to be admired.
But
Naming and shaming isn't condoned on AHQ, and against the AHQ tos.
It would probably be best to remove the accusations, inferences and the player name your posts, before a CM removes it for you.
@RacsuChileHere are the communities
Matrix: https://matrix.to/#/#apex-on-banishment:qubicfluff.pl
Discord: https://discord.gg/eRyDvCc5WN
I'm not fully aware if EA is removing the ban based on some automated process or if it's manual and requires that I pronounce myself here.
so lets go.
same situation as everyone here. I have been playing in Fedora linux (steam) since the games has been available on linux. (played on windows/origin before)
This is are my launch options: DXVK_ASYNC=1 mangohud %command% +fps_max 0 -dev
havent been unbanned yet. Tested in game.
Thank you
following up: I'm still able to play but I also still have an active ban in my history. /shrug
Same here. I was able to enter the firing range on saturday, and for some reason the ban history still says that my ban is active.
I guess it's not a high priority to change that page when a ban is removed. It should be automated, but that's just my opinion.
The trello page case hasn't been changed, so I wonder if they've completely figured out what the problem is.
An update about my situation: Still Banned for now, trello has not been updated, checking if I'm unbanned (via entering the firing range) again tomorrow.

The Trello for this has been updated from "investigating" to "fix in progress": https://trello.com/c/7roI320C
Edit: My ban history still shows "active," and no emails yet, but I've been able to play since Saturday.
@real_sjattahI was also able to enter the firing range on Saturday as well and it does still show that the ban is active
I have not played since saturday because I am worried I will be banned again, so has anyone who is unbanned played since then, is it safe for me to start playing again?
Yes, it is totally safe. They fixed this bug
@IGORS7999 Congrats on the unban, it was a blast shouting into the void with you back in March about our bans. Maybe your 200 ban appeals made the difference, since I'm still banned and only made one haha. I also think the unban of your account is really interesting, since it means your account was banned for the same reason a lot of people were banned for during the recent banwave.
Some others are still waiting for unbans so it's probably not totally fixed. I stopped caring about this banned account with $0 spent and 80 hours played since I can play on an alt for some reason, but it is a huge injustice to @RacsuChile and anyone else who has dropped thousands of hours (and hundreds of dollars) on their banned accounts. I also think it's a stain on the reputation of this anti cheat.
I get that the silent treatment works for the average 'I got falsely banned!' thread, but when something is obviously wrong, the lack of communication just looks terrible. This is the second time this year we've had a false banwave. Some of us are still banned, and there's still no indication whether all the bans will be fixed, or even if anything has been implemented to stop this happening a third time. Could someone at EAC please update us?
Still banned, no real updates for today.
Ok, I lose all faith in my situation and I decided to leave this, here is the big text explaining:
I'm exhausted, I don't plan to keep looking for crumbs from EA support, see how their answers are vague and how all the blessed effort I've put into this is worth absolutely nothing to them.
I have put more than 1000 dollars in the game, more than 4000 hours played, ex top 72 of world in arenas, one that got to have a good top in my country, and yet, so much time and love for this game is worth nothing if I do not receive a real answer about my case, because even though I do not regret having been able to help the community and get 75% of legitimate users in linux unbanned, I regret having thought I would receive a decent treatment to achieve something like this.
I am heartbroken, and to keep checking to see if I got an email every day or to see if some worker deigned to comment something empty is just not healthy.
I quit all this and hope I can keep it up for months, at least until the dust settles and maybe EA support deigns to review my situation one more time.
If the CM takes the time to comment again something useful or if he needs info, I will check it and respond, but I'm not wasting time commenting all over again and giving daily updates.
Also, the Trello is probably getting updated to “Resolved soon” Will see if they just move on and ignore the ones that still banned.
I give up, greetings to all, and I hope you are well, congratulations to all who can play.

@RacsuChileIt's rlly pathetic how they "solved this" and it's pathetic how seperate ea help is from respawn. My account is not banned but the ban still says it's "active" even tho it isn't.
It's rlly sad to see someone like you put all of this effort into helping us and the amount of hours and money you have put into the game.
I truly do hope you get unbanned as you deserve to keep playing on a operating system you like using.
