Re: IP banned from an official server

Well don't make racial slurs on servers and you won't get banned. As far as i know you cannot be banned from Official servers so it may be an account ban.

  • No it isn't. It's an IP ban. If I use a VPN I can join. I just got a new moden and decided to see if I could get IP banned again. I was able to play on the server, and as soon as I tested it, I could not rejoin the server ever again. Clearly they are using firewall/ddos prevention to block my ip. I should be able to say what I want on an official server -- they should not have the power to ban players.

    No one is an admin to official servers, so there would be no reason to block your ip or ddos or anything similar.

  • I'm beyond the point of doubt. This has happened on two different modems. This has nothing to do with my end. I am able to play on the server until I upset the admin and then I cannot connect to the server ever again -- these guys are blocking my IP one way or another.

    If I got another modem (which means a new IP), I could play on the server again. Guarenteed

    so you admit to using racial slurs on official servers......

    i'm surprised to be honest that you havent been banned from origin for a week

    but to answer your question, you are wrong

    look here

    you CAN be banned from an offical server.

    you cannot be kicked or moved around an official server, but you most certainly can be banned.

    if you break the TOS for the game, you can be banned from an official server.

    before you say you haven't, you have.

    you used a racial slur.

    you tried to circumvent a ban.

    totalfps made a post about server and the different types, it took 5 seconds to google.

    “Official Servers” only allow access to a few server settings which are very restricted. Server admins cannot kick or switch players around. Missions can only be tracked here. Awards, scores and unlocks will also be recorded. Players land on these types of servers when using Quick Match.

    but they most certainly can BAN.

  • Here an admin implies that he has the power to IP ban players from official servers.

    If he banned you from his server or not, Naming and shaming isn't allowed (yes you removed his username but you also linked his website/forum in the photo) it looks like you were causing trouble and ruining the experience for other players with quoting what he said "Harass and spread hateful things towards them" I would suggest for you to drop it and find a new server. There's lots more. If you continue to harass these players they may report you and you would get doubt with for TOS violations. 

    If you would like to report him for figuring out how to IP ban you from his server, feel free to do so. http://help.ea.com/ca/article/how-to-report-a-cheater-to-battlelog-for-mohw-and-bf3/

    I am locking this thread now. There is no more productivity that can come out of this.
