Understanding HWID ban/ shadow bans

What if you inject during your shadow period? Will that "extend" your shadow ban?

It’ll most likely result in a permanent ban, so technically, yes... it will extend the ban :lul:

If you are HWID flagged, that will happen until it passes unless you use spoofer... shadow bans should stop happening after a week or 2

if you have a shadow ban and then wait a week for it to clear, can you inject and use a spoofer on that account at all or will the fact that you have already logged in be a problem ?

Hi people, I performed a hack at cold war with my 2nd account. It was immediately banned permanently. I then signed in with my main account, there I got into the game, all my purchased skins are still there, everything I had in the past with this account in season 1 also carried out an xp lobby. Now he's always looking for players but the account is still there , is it now permanently banned or will it be activated in 7 to 14 days ??????

varies for everyone, 7-14 days is the timeline for the majority.
sometimes less but never more.

ok 5 days yes cool when was that ??? For me it is the 3rd day. How is it that you were banned from shadows twice.

Hello i got a question, i got shadowbanned on a account and 2 days later permabanned on that for using unlock all skins etc. , 2 days later i logged on another account and that got shadowbanned after 1 day playing.

will the second account get permabanned too? that account didnt use any programs like unlock all etc.

thanks for the help

Hi - so if anyone is able to give me and answer it would be great.

I got perma banned on my main account in the December wave. Every time I made a new account it got shadow banned. I waited and used an account ( which is now my main with my bought games on and all my legit guns unlocked ) I use this account everyday and it works perfectly HOWEVER three days ago I decided I wanted to log in on one of the old shadow banned accounts ( has like 8hrs played on ) and I asked someone to do all the camo unlocks and some dark matter skins. He messaged me to say it’s all done I logged on went to play a game and now it’s shadow banned again :( .. so my question is this account has 8 hours all the blueprints, will I be able to use this account? Do you think it get perma banned , why did it get shadow banned again after he did the blueprint unlocks ?

Thanks

Gotta situation. Main account banned after cheesing. All other accounts after (2 of them and now a 3rd) have been instand shadowbanned, but after 3-5 days they were permabanned. I never played a single match with those accounts and they still got perm. I thought hwid was instant ban but my sitation seems to mix the two. Im waiting to see what happens to my 3rd account now but I assume it will be perma banned too. No cheats installed after my first ban.

they were most likely supposed to be banned as alts typically are after a permanent ban but it was delayed.
make a fresh account and try again.
if that gets perm banned, then you're hwid banned and need a spoofer.

yeah they were accounts made after the initial ban. New accounts were instant sb and banned a few days to a week after. I have even tried spoofing for this 3rd account (bought account) and am still sb at the moment. the spoofer had file cleaner on it so i didnt think to uninstall battlenet so my next move is to uninstall battlenet/wz and spoof again. redownload and use a new account (bought account) and try again. other than that the only thing i could thin of would be a corrupt windows file

use revo uninstaller to remove the launcher + game.
you can deep clean all tracers that way.
