Shadow man or HWID ban

Just to make it simple for myself and anyone else wondering.

If I am able to load up warzone and play 1/2 games before I'm shadowbanned is that just a shadowban or can it also be a HWID ban?

If I am HWID banned would I even be able to play 1 game on fresh accounts? Or would it ban me straight away before I even play the game?

So all you have to do is wait for your shadowban to be over and your good to go?

What happens them if your shadowbanned account get Perma banned instead?
If you wait the 7-14 days and they are Perma banning your accounts after a shadowban.

What does that mean?

If your shadow ban turns into a perm ban after a few days then its also a hardware ban

Correct, although in my case, perm ban happens the next day.

Same here, changed MoBo and SSD and HWID Ban was gone. I think the SSD wouldn't be necessary

How long ago was this buddy?

What? The HWID Ban?
I think April, spoofed since then and changed the Mobo last week after new accounts get perm banned over and over without spoofing

I'm not 100% sure yet because I'm shadow banned atm but iv a feeling I'm HWID banned also. Waiting to see if my shadow turns into a ban. If so I might change my Mobo too. I wanna play warzone and vanguard legit again

Just to clarify, changing PC parts doesn't guarantee your HWID ban to be removed, it May or may not work so be wary of that, as it's not clear what parts they exactly hit, you don't wanna buy new parts and have those also flagged in your HWID ban that'd be waste of money.

I had an account that was banned on PC. And I accidentally logged onto vanguard on my Xbox series x with that same account. Then I made a new account on Xbox series x and I was banned from vanguard again on it!! Do you think my Xbox is HWID banned because I used a banned account and logged into my Xbox with it?? Or do you think it's an IP ban?

IP bans are extremely ultra rare as im sure you can understand that the ip provided by your ISP could expire and move to another customer or shared IP like a university etc..

I'm, not sure whether HWID bans happen on consoles, but your ban is kind of weird really, I once used an unlock all tool for a buddy of mine on my PC for him to use on his Xbox, when the first banwave that happened with the unlock all detection his account got banned, but when he created another one it was fine and did not receive bans. Also regarding IP bans, I don't think they happen, I created a new account on my HWID banned PC that got shadowbanned and then perm banned, after the shadowban I used the same IP to create another account using a spoofer, it worked without issues and didn't receive a ban.

Ya it's more than likely not an IP ban I suppose. The only thing I can think of so is that my banned account from playing on PC that was then used to sign into Xbox live triggered some kind of ban on my Xbox also.

Yep, that's the only explanation I can think of.

I wonder will the Xbox be HWID banned or just HWID flagged.
