Play other games in the mean time. Paladins is free and fun for an OW fix.

How about you try playing quick play or arcade, so you don’t ruin the mode for everyone else when you leave.

You can always open up a ticket with Blizzard customer service. I doubt they will overturn the ban because their policy is you shouldn’t play comp if you are having PC problems as the disconnects are likely. But it never hurts to try.

I do not leave the game kicks me out

Don’t talk about it on forums.
It will lead to a forum ban.

The game can’t tell the difference, if it isn’t obvious.

Think about your actions

Youre not supposed to discuss your ban on the forums. Mods can lock this post.

I remember one season I DC’d too many times and got a season ban. Can’t do much except sort whatever the issue is out and play QP or some other games. Then wait for the next season. Feelsbadman.

Spend the time that was made available from the ban and fix your computer like you should have done after your first ban.

wow what did u do if i may ask

Calm down? You have anger issues or something? I made a thread about junkrat and you spammed a huge paragraph calling it a bait post and all which it wasn’t. Also the game kicks me out sometimes or my internet crashes on accident guaranteed s/he didn’t mean to “ruin the game”.

The game doesn’t kick you out. You most likely have an unstable Internet connection.

Obviously s/he doesn’t mean to. I got banned because my internet was trash a couple times as well as a couple bugs kicking me out of comp. s/he shouldn’t have to think about their actions unless s/he was being toxic or what not.

Try out some other games. I’m banned from season 12 due to the crappy bugs from the nana cola update that didn’t allow me to see the characters or mine alone and kicked me out. I’m playing destiny 2 and I’m trying out season 6 of fortnite which just came out.

I know they didn’t mean to leave the game, but it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t drastically shift the game for everyone else. As for the junk thread, I don’t even remember anything about that, maybe link it to me so i can read it?

This sounds like a Competitive Leaver Season Ban and not a full account suspension or ban. If that is the case you are banned only from Competitive Play. This occurs due to leaving too many games from Competitive Play (this includes all disconnections and crashes). Competitive Season Bans cannot be appealed and getting a Competitive Season Ban results in the loss of all end-of-season rewards including Bonus Competitive Points. Getting a season ban puts you one step closer to a Competitive PERMANENT ban (3 season bans triggers this).

Unfortunately all disconnections and game crashes counts as leaving the match and will be penalized appropriately. The game server has no way to discern a legitimate disconnection or game crash from one that is forcefully caused by a dishonest player to bypass leaver penalties. You can learn about this policy here:

Remember if you see the message, “Lost Connection to the Server” in the title screen or the message “Failed to Connect to Server” in red text in the text chat box, this means there is something that disrupted your connection to the game server and not a problem with the game server itself. There can be a variety of reasons this happens including those that don’t disconnect your computer from the Internet. There is great troubleshooting to start with that can most likely resolve most issues and I encourage you to check them out here:

As always if nothing in that guide works, please start a new topic in the technical support forum saying you completed these steps and additional advice can be provided.

Unfortunately they don’t appeal this type of ban. They only consider appeals to account actions due to violations of the Blizzard Code-of-Conduct.

I believe this user is not dealing with an account action, just a competitive ban. Its okay for them to ask for help (though we can’t do much about it). Arguing or presenting misinformation of account actions is against the forum code-of-conduct. Technically an account action is suppose to block that specific account from posting on the forums anyways (though many often still post through an alternate account).

Not that theyll tell u, because that would undermine the robust false report detection system lol
