EA account Banned for slurs, Can I ever play again ?

 

NOTE: Attached is the screenshot: reason i covered the line of text is just not to provoke or trigger any sort of toxic conversation , ofcourse I do feel ashamed of it. the reason for the screenshot is just to prove that I trully received EA Account BAN for Hateful Conduct not cheating.

Hello Everyone,

Long story short, i got banned for being an idiot who repeatedly was raging on hackers so i got banned, I did not receive any warning but i got instantly perma banned and i believe it is well deserved, I would be lying to you and mysel thinking this is wrong. 

Good Job EA and I hope you maintain the good work - seriously I mean it.

However, yes... NO hacking, no third party advantage, pure toxicity and slurs... even though i was not warned before, I did receive it and it is deserved. (logically) I submitted my appeal to get the ban lifted but I asume this will not happen which is fair, I get it. 

I love BF6 and i consider it as best BF so far - PLS no hate... never ever got banned on EA for anything, never had a problem with behavior in their games - active member since 2012 ton of BF matches all across their titles BF3,4,1,2042, played without any restrictions even in apex Legends over thousands hours. and their support Team helped me out 2x with my account switch and bugs, they were superb.

However, while I wait for the official denial of my appeal, I was wondering of I got Hardware ban.

I understand that the BAN is EA account BAN and there was nothing written regarding the hardware since I was not cheating  - cheaters were the first thing that got me to unleash the devil which was sleeping deep in me... - I would like to play again and I even proposed to perma ban me from any type of communication channel, I trully dont care and I respect the fact that it was not normal behavior... But I just want to come back and play BF 6 so I was thinking of buying it again on this account but iam afraid it could get banned cause of hardware - please NOTE: my intentions here are clear... iam done iwht communication itself, I rather mute the whole list then to get banned again.

what happenned: i got one shotted by cheaters that game and it was constant destruction followed by humiliation, non stop, every single game, some players were just better that is normal, but these people... they would be jumping like Bhop one shooting everyone EVERY SINGLE GAME... we played like 12 games... and in each of them , people started to leave cause it was unplayble... still I do deserve the BAN and i would do anything to get it lifted but I know how cruel the system must be in order to maitain order and good environment in the game.

the Question again is : If I buy a new BF6 copy on this account, WIll it get banned again automatically before I even join the game ? Is it a Hardwaare ban ? AI says it is. So i was wondering if I could get a confirmation prior to the official statement from EA.

Feel free to judge me, hate me, I can understand, it is deserved, I just want to know iam cut off forever or if I can still play someday.

    Not even just a temp ban? If it truly was talking poorly, using racial slurs, whatever etc and not cheating.. A perm ban without warning or prior violations is a BIT harsh EA. 

    This is why I never played Madden or any sports game online, lol. To avoid that toxic crowd, no offense to those who are genuine. Anyways, I personally think a comms ban for a set amount of time and / or a temp game ban would be more appropriate if this is 1st offense and no prior warnings given. 

    How far did you go exactly? I'm sorry to hear this happened to you, I hope they consider your appeal and that you have hopefully learned to not go full anger driven in an online game in the future. I've been one to curse out hackers or cheaters in games, but typically I would not use the in game chat as it's a written record of exactly what you meant or said at the time. 

    Again hope this gets resolved for you. Good to know EA has a firm but somewhat questionable approach to in game rage / toxic comments..

    CORRECTION: 1st warning i received in BETA when i was raging on hacker but i did not even notice it until now, I was normally playing the full time on BETA never get restricted even in the gameplaytime you can see i was playing normally but as per EA notification i got restricted.. Maybe beta ended then ?  and then i received this perma. nothing inbetween and as for the how far did i go, I am not sure if i can share it here I dont want to get banned here for this post, Iam jsut asking question I really dont want to trigger anyone but maybe I can DM it to you ? or if EA moderator approves then I can share the screenshot, got no problem with it.

     

  • T3-K1ste​ I understand how frustrating it is to play with cheaters. That's why I switched from PC to PS5 and disabled PC crossplay.

    If you're worried about a hardware ban than subscribe to EA Play Pro for a month and play BF6.

    OskooI_007​  got no problem with moving on with it... it hurts but i can undertstand it was deservable but at least they could notify to behave or something, every single game people were calling out nazi stuff and these people play up to this day. I literally wished the worst i could to those cheaters and I understand it. But i want to know, if I buy a new copy on my new account now, will I get banned again ?

    Nobody should be allowed to rage or be toxic towards other players. it easily becomes a vicious cycle affecting people reading the chat.

    That said i dont think it warrants a perma ban. Ideally behaviour like that should just result in being excluded from using chat and Voice chat. This perma ban seems like a lazy solution / cash grab from EA.

    If i were you i would create a ticket on ea help. They can provide a clear answer to your question. And remember to save the transcript after you talked with the support. So you have a solid case should that supporter give you bad advice

    Just sent them an email so Iam waiting on their answer, I agree with you... it is vicious cycle but as per the screenshots without any warning or anything, instantly perma ban ? I understand it was a slur but where is their policy then ? 

    It is on point here to be banned at least from chat and voice chat, sure. Btw, I did not use the voice chat. None of the people actually does in my games at least I havent notice them.

    I Agree that it was bad... and punishment should be served. But perma EA account BAN ?? where is the mute mechanics punishment ? Iam not one of those who want to play the game to just rage on people, I just want to play the game without being trolled.

    I proposed to EA to perma mute me without any exception I deserve a BAN definetely yes... but a pernament one ?

    Dont expect them to change their decision they have strict guidelines. But atleast you can find out if you can buy another copy without being insta banned on that one.  Next time when you spot a cheater report him, block him, And leave the match. That way you atleast wont be in anymore matches with that guy. 

    I myself also suffer from a short temper from time to time. And have learned Its not worth your time or energy to rage on cheaters, you just end up feeding the troll.

    And gl  hope you find a way back on the battlefield <3

    Regarding my appeal for my account , I found out that the 7-day suspension scheduled from August 22 to August 29, 2025, was never actually applied to my account.

    My account history indicates a prior 7-day suspension scheduled from August 22 to August 29, 2025. Critically, I never received any email notification for this initial suspension.  BETA was the first was August 9–10, and the second was August 14–17. The first and only official communication I received regarding any account penalty was the email on October 24, 2025, notifying me of the permanent ban. I only became aware of the August suspension today, by manually checking my account status after receiving the ban notice.

    Since the suspension was never enforced, I never received the intended warning they keep repeating. The permanent ban I later received therefore came without the mandatory and crucial warning step that their own escalation system requires. What is this ?

    Still, I dont think it will change anything but how come I havent received any warning or temp ban or at least something ?
