Destiny 2 PC - Account Banned (want to know why!)
Attempted to log into Destiny 2 today, only to find out that my account has been banned.
This makes absolutely zero sense. The last time I played this game was when I raided almost a month ago (July 16). Decided to stop playing for personal reasons. Then, I logged back in one week ago (August 5) to purchase the Micro Mini sparrow from Eververse. Since then, I haven't logged into the game until today and I am now met with ban message.
I'm just curious to know exactly why I've been banned ... it doesn't make any sense to me.

12 RepliesEdited by BNGSecurity: 8/13/2019 9:25:22 PMYour account was banned because you repeatedly and intentionally deleted other players' characters by logging in with their account credentials. This was confirmed after careful analysis of the server logs associated with the login and deletion events. Your ban has been reviewed and upheld. You can find the specific policies leading to your ban on this page: https://bungie.net/bans [b]EDIT: [/b]We'd like to take this opportunity to remind players that sharing your account login with other people can be very dangerous. We encourage all of our players to follow strict security practices, including the use the 2-Factor Authentication wherever it is available.

I just want to send a huge shout out and thank you to whomever decided to let BNGSecurity start responding to some of these posts. You've both restored my faith in the company and made my days just a little brighter. Cheers!!!

13 RepliesPC bans are typically a result of playing the game with restricted software/apps/plug-ins in the background. This can include cheat programs for Destiny 2 and other games (like cheatengine), aimbots, macros, debuggers, etc. Until a BNG Support account posts a comment explaining what you were banned for specifically, you can review the policy on [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/46101]PC Third Party Applications[/url].

I'm just curious to know exactly why I've been banned ... it doesn't make any sense to me.[/quote] [spoiler]There are 3 types of punishments for Destiny/Bungie. 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/gallery/eSY1iGc] 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). 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 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.[/spoiler]

8 RepliesTypically, pc bans are due to software detected by Destiny 2 while running. These include but not limited to, trainers, aimbots, auto-fire, mods, graphics hacks, anything that injects code into games, debuggers for programing, even some viruses. any of these could cause a ban, [b]even if not destiny 2 specific[/b] [b]Restrictions are temporary, and will not be overturned or undone before they expire. Once an account is banned however, that ban is permanent. Account restrictions and bans are only done in extreme cases; if actions were taken against your account, then it was with reason. [/b] [b]There are NO options to dispute or overturn account restrictions or bans.[/b] Bans are lifetime for that account https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/11929 https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/47715 [i]*I am not a Bungie representative, just a player trying to give the answers that are available.[/i]
