[quote]I was recently banned from destiny 2 now I'm not that invested in this game started a few days ago its pretty fun but I think it's detrimental to a community if people get wrongfully banned from the game. From what I've read from there has been a ban wave so I don't know if it was the two games of the iron banner where I and my friend (Roxas The Nobody) did well when we switched from pulse rifles to our normal PVP guns (got tired of the bullshit quest), If it was about my weapon reloading on its own I have exotic leggings that allow me to run and auto-reload, but whatever "evidence" I beg you to review it again because from what I know I never breached the terms of service. I know your policy on banning but people pay 100+ on this game AT LEAST give a short explanation on why so if it was an accident if people make a new account they can know what they did.

Bans, Restrictions and Suspensions. LEARN THE DIFFERENCE. BANS are permanent and apply to the whole game. The message usually says: "NOT SO FAST! This account has been banned." And looks like this http://imgur.com/gallery/Tw7g7Jg RESTRICTIONS are temporary. The message usually says: "RESTRICTED! This account is temporarily restricted from _______." And looks like this http://imgur.com/gallery/st40PuU If it is your 1st RESTRICTION it's USUALLY 2 weeks. If it is your 2nd RESTRICTION it's USUALLY 2 months. RESTRICTIONS can stack on each other, usually due to the severity and frequency of multiple reports overtime. So 2 weeks AND 2 months, so to most players there won't be a 2nd splash screen and the RESTRICTION ends later than expected. RESTRICTIONS USUALLY end during the reset of that week and not the day of. If you have had 2 prior RESTRICTIONS a 3rd penalty can either be a much longer RESTRICTION or a lifetime RESTRICTION from Crucible and Gambit or a full on lifetime BAN from the entire game. SOMETIMES you will be given a splash screen that looks like this http://imgur.com/gallery/GpYKBGG warning you of an issue so you can fix it before a restriction is placed. In-Game Gambit/Competitive Crucible SUSPENSIONS are only 30-60mins and placed AUTOMATICALLY if you leave too many games in a short time span for ANY reason. Whether it be a ddos, error code or power outage. The message usually says: "TIME OUT! You left a ______ match before it was complete…." And looks like this for Competitive and Gambit http://imgur.com/gallery/stqxYIj They WILL NOT respond or message you. They WILL NOT tell why a punishment was issued. EDIT: [Recently (as of June 28/2019) SOMETIMES BNGSecurity will give a general reason why the punishment was placed. They look like this http://imgur.com/a/mdFAQ1A] They don't have to. They don't care. Loyalty. Time played. Content purchased. Gear earned. When you started. Intent. Threats. Begging. It is all irrelevant. They make the rules. We have to follow them. Break them and they penalize you. There is NO course of action to appeal any punishment issued. They WILL NOT lessen or remove any punishment issued for any reason. They've had this no tolerance policy since Day 1 of D1. It won't change anytime soon. The reasons most ppl have a punishment issued to them is: For some form of cheating (ddossing, afk farming). Playing with cheaters (paying for a carry, sharing account info, or staying in a lobby with a cheater for too long and benefiting from their illegal actions). Or having consistently terrible internet connection that it affects OTHERS players and not just yourself. You may be playing fine. But to others you may appear as an unkillable red-bar. For most PC tagalongs: They are banned because SOMETHING installed on your PC (ACTIVE cheats for D2 or other games can trigger this) was viewed as a POTENTIAL threat to D2 and those are PROMPTLY BANNED. The process for BANS and RESTRICTIONS involve reports coming in from players or their flag system towards an individual. The Bungie monkey at HQ reviews it. And they decide if it was warranted or not. 

So long, cheater

You're on PC. If you got banned, one of these things happened. 1. Either you or someone on your fireteam was caught actively cheating. If you're on a team in PVP where someone is cheating, Bungie bans the whole team. They are not going to go down the rabbit hole of trying to figure out who was responsible and who did or didn't know about the cheating. 2. You had a bot or other cheating program (one that can inject code into the game) running in the background on your PC. Bungie has the ability to detect the presence and activity of those kinds of programs will ban your account if they detect them. While occasionally a third party program or virus finds their way onto your machine. But this is usually a case of someone loading a third-party cheat onto their machine....and Bungie catches them with it.

An investigation was done by the Bungie team and it was determined that you did something worthy of a permanent ban. As much as you don't care to admit it or don't know, this is due to some sort of cheating that was picked up by the system. Permanent bans aren't just randomly handed out and someone at Bungie actually investigated you and determined this was the correct course of action. I would ensure you have no titan skating macros, auto clickers, or any sort of 3rd party software which is not allowed and if you so feel you'd like to you can make a new account and play again, feel free to.

Bungie investigates accounts before they hand out any restrictions or bans. After investigating your account, they found a reason. They will not respond or remove this ban. On the very rare occasion they do respond, the answer will give a date and a very brief reason which will be one of the below. 1. Cheating 2. Any software being detected by Destiny while it's running. These could include Trainers, Aimbots, Auto-fire, Mods, Graphics Hacks, anything that injects code into games. 3. An unstable connection is having an impact on other players.

I see no evidence of cheating but i could be wrong

Do you have a crap internet connection? If that’s the reason maybe players were shooting you and you weren’t dying? That’s the same as cheating.

I wish bungie would give temp bans, then permanently give them a cheater player title so we all can see 😂

There is no accidental cheating or installing and using third party stuff to cheat. Your name(chosenUndead) already tells me you're a cheater. The pc community on Darksouls are rampant with cheaters and you chose the wrong game to cheat on this time.

I have stinky farts

The reason was: that you're a cheater. If they tell you how they caught you cheating then you might learn to cheat better. Stop cheating and you'll be fine!
