Hey guys, I just received my first perma ban for using RUT (an unlock tool) on Warzone :( I have a few questions but for anyone interested I'm going to tell you how it happened since I think it's pretty weird.
HOW IT HAPPENED:
I was playing like usual (40 ms ping average) but then I started noticing that my lobbies were full of military level users having mastery camos unlocked and swapped to guns that are not supposed to have them, so I went to the ban appeal website on my phone and saw I was under revision, I just closed the game and started watching twitch. The guy I was watching, which also used an unlock tool, said that he just had got shadow-banned too, so I went to the website again and realized my shadow-ban had turned into a perma ban in under one hour. I've never heard of anything like this happening, so I went to the twitch chat and told this guy to close the game and open it up again, and the same happened to him. I had never ever been shadow-banned before in over a year of using RUT.
QUESTIONS:
I followed a YouTube video on how to manually spoof your HWID and followed the steps until I tried to use DMIedit to change serials, it turns out I got this error "d8 - Updating DMI data failed" which I understand means that my motherboard is not compatible and cannot proceed with changing serials. I anyway created a new account and logged into battle net, after 2 matches it got shadow-banned (I got 20+ kills since the lobbies were really, really bot lobbies, swag level bot lobbies, so I don't know if that might have triggered the shadow-ban). My questions are:
1). Does the shadow-ban mean that my attempt to manually change HWID failed?
2). Am I HWID banned?
3) After they lift the shadow-ban (if they do) can I use an unlock tool again? (I will totally not start from scratch on a new account and unlock everything and grind those 70 levels for vanguard weapons)
4). Do I need to buy a spoofer? If yes, isn't there any alternative to buying one?
5). Is there an affordable permanent spoofer or a cheap non-permanent one? I neither can nor want to spend 30+ bucks monthly on a free video game. I know of the AC diamond permanent spoofer, but it has 0 reviews and is 330 bucks which, to me, is absolute madness
6). What unlock tool provider do you recommend? I had been using RUT for over a year, and it was good, but more often than not I find myself not liking the support, neither from the reseller nor from the dev himself. They always blame the user (even if they only used THEIR unlock tool, like myself) for getting banned, saying they don't know what else the user was using. I really do believe their unlock tool is one of the safest if not the safest out there, but guess what, detections happen, and you can't blame the user for that. Plus, their unlock tool is account linked which means that I would need to spend 40$ every time my account gets banned, and I know there are unlock tools HWID linked which allow using on more than one account, but I don't know if I could go a year without getting banned like I did with RUT
I think that covers all my questions, but if I come up with something else, I'll ask here. I'm sorry for this long ass post, but I wanted to make sure that I could explain in a detailed way possible. I hope that someone actually reads and answers to this lol. Thanks in advance
