Reviving this post : i am unbanned again with no suspensions , still no reply on my first and second appeals , i found the culprit to what got me banned and i will issue a warning to all other players who might use this program called NordVPN , javelin seems to flag it as cheating (gameplay enhancements) , i am not sure if all VPN's are like that but for sure NordVPN caused my ban , i used nordvpn for a total year and not gotten banned but after season 4 or midway through it , seems like they updated javelin to ban VPN users (which imho is ridiculous) , i have since uninstalled NordVPN and been playing with no suspensions , Don't ever use VPN's to play on EA games protected by kernel level anticheat , they should advertise on VPN services and EA that VPN is classified as cheating , this is the most unethical type of company i've ever seen

Bought the game on G2A... not a cheater.
Yup yup, sure sure.
Nice of you to bring your friends to post. Glad it means absolutely nothing and EA only cares about your ban reason (which was probably cheating).

you're a total anti social , buying the game on G2A means I'm cheating? saving a few $ means cheating nowadays , got it.

Cheaters buy off G2A because they know they're going to burn through accounts.
G2A also gets keys from not so great sources, and this is known. Buying an offline game from them usually won't have consequences, but an online game, especially one from a AAA like EA, means they're going to check any keys from people who try to access their game. If those keys came from a source that used less than legitimate ways to get them, or to generate them, then EA IDs those keys as bad and will ban any account that tries to use them.
If you want some shoes, and a guy offers to sell you some $200 Nikes for $50, what goes through your mind there? If your first thought is "Wow, what a nice guy giving me such a good deal" then you're incredibly naive.
