Re: Linux - Your Account has been disabled

@PalanorI'm the creator of the Reddit thread that was linked, just commenting to add that I was playing with Linux Mint 22 via Proton Experimental bleeding-edge and sometimes GE, as shown in the post. My account ban simply lists "BAN" with a blank reason, and when asked for what exactly I did I was only given a generic copy pasted answer that I was cheating. This is not the first time Apex Legends has falsely banned Linux players, It goes back to over a year ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/11gaefo/ea_is_falsely_massbanning_steam_deck_and_linux/

    I am also affected by this issue. I explained my case under the Reddit Thread. This has to be an issue with the last patch because I wouldn't have switched to Proton Experimental if game continued to work fine with Proton 9.0.2. Please fix this issue and remove false bans.  

    Edit : They removed my ban thanks to RSPN_Thieamy from reddit. If you are also affected by this try contacting Thieamy.
