BG Ban wave. Blizzard needs to address this

How should they fix their system?

They offer refunds when wrongfully suspended. I’m not sure what more you’d reasonably want.

No you can’t. Your opinion and feelings on the matter is proof.

So wrong, yet all evidence proves me right in the matter. Like here:

These people are 100% reactionary players. There is literally no foresight, no strategy, no understanding of actual defense or deterrence. They are just hearing horns go off and running to the opposite colors on the map.

There are way too many people upset and with proof they were not AFK for anyone to have evidence that they were all AFK. Blizz messed up and now we just wait for them to remedy it just like the past wrongful bans.

Yes, they got banned. Do you have a shred of evidence all these Karens were playing and not cheating? No you don’t. So stop being a clown .

I know 22 people across 3 guilds that got banned for this. A truly insane figure. Did some of them AFK from time to time? Probably. But I know for a fact they weren’t AFK to the point of abusing the system to the point of bans.

It is a truly insane situation we find ourselves in. Clearly an automated response banning wave that is totally unnessessary. They have debuffs in the game that handles this. It will remove you from the game if you go afk. you will get a debuff that stops you from getting honor. If these things are not working banning is not the solution. Because now on discords I am seeing the SOLUTION TO QUES is to report everyone to see in BGs defending a tower.

Like what the hell. Totally insane.

Do you enjoy this? Posting dumb things in the forums all day?

Or maybe blizzard has just been lax on dealing with afking in AV for too long?

Thats literally how you AV DAWG

AV is an AFK BG. If you don’t like it force Blizzard to add RDF or do another BG. It’s that simple. With RDF players will have another avenue to level.

How is killing harpies good exp? U got like 30exp per kill

It must be pure coincidence that this happened when thousands of DKs started doing BGs, there isn’t in fact a single DK getting banned, right? Must be a delayed response to months of data of people AFKing in battle- OH WAIT.

Dumb is defending AFKers and cheaters. You seem to specialize in it. Banned lately?

On Ban appeals, THEY DO NOT. Jesus Christ, how much more clear do I need to be? If they “suspected” you of cheating/afking they won’t offer it, EVEN IF it’s overturned.

Again, straw-man, kiddo.

Again what they say, and their tech are two totally different things; IE; again, they stated in court they did not sexually harass and abuse women? Guess the outcome sweet-pea?

You are going to mute/block. I can’t stand dealing with children who continually overlooked evidence when it’s right there and who ride Blizzard.

I hope they ban more of them.

Ban every loser who fiddles with himself outside Vans room while Alliance recap every bunker including Dun Baldar.

Harpies gave me 300 XP per kill not rested. When me and my friends were in the cave doing it. It’s pretty good XP. Not as good as RDF. If we had RDF we would have done that instead, but open world leveling was impossible.

“It’s never happened to me therefore it’s proof the system is fine.”

That is a ridiculous argument. I’ve played the same way I’ve played for the last 17 years, never once have I ever been suspended/banned/had any adverse action on my account in this game. On my other account I ‘actively’ participated in completing objectives in 187 AV games on a boosted rogue since Tuesday, that account is now suspended for 30 days for non-participation. Because YOU’ve never been affected by it does NOT mean it is working ‘just fine’.

Oh no I’m sure that the combination of BG’s giving honor, the exp bonus and that people are leveling alts contributed to a spike in leachers in AV.

That’s simply not true. If it is overturned, you absolutely will be refunded.

I see you are still misusing this word.

They have a better idea of what their tech is then you do. What would anyone listen to what Kirkoh-Illidan says their tech is over what they themselves say their tech is?

Correction, you can’t stand having your feelings, opinions, and false narratives being proven wrong with evidence and facts.

banning defenders and cappers too.

If they can do an investigation to determine a person they banned was NOT in fact an AFKer, they can look with that level of prudence ahead of time, or apply some of those standards or metrics. They’re clearly rushing using gimped data. I don’t know what amount of people were falsely banned, or what percentage of these bans were false bans, and it’s almost certain we’ll never know because why would Blizzard admit that? However, if it is happening on a wide enough scale, there is a problem.

Furthermore, to claim you know how Blizzard bans simply because of a statement they’ve made is truly naive. That’s like saying United Airlines does their due diligence before kicking people off of flights, just because the CEO says so. Of course they’re going to claim that. Of course they’re going to say a person manually reviewed it. What took place in that review? I don’t know, and you don’t know, but if many people are getting falsely banned for “AFKing” AV during a prepatch when there are tons of boosters who know playing that BG is the most effective way to get honor, then there is a problem with their system and you should be on our side wanting to see it get fixed.
