Soft banned again?

06/15/2022 18:11 zino64#1
I was banned from warzone for remapping my controller (or vpn), waiting 14 days and it allowed me to play again on a new account (I reinstalled windows). I tried to log on today after playing last night and my account is now soft banned again... does anyone have any insight on this?

remapping controller won't get you shadow banned or using a vpn either, those are not the reasons you're most likely hwid flagged

As b0red mentioned, remapping nor a VPN will result in a shadow ban.

Either you've been banned in the past for cheating and your shadow did not expire, or you did something else resulting in the ban.

I don't know the reason I am banned then, I also have no reason to lie, I logged on one day and I was banned, never downloaded a cheat in my life. The controller remapping or VPN is the only possibility I could think of. Apart from that I just want to be unsoftbanned do I have to wait another 14 days?

It was brand new but opened box, could maybe it could've been returned, who knows... the only other thing I can think of is I joined a Coldwar modded lobby over a year ago and got skins/weapons etc. I'd hope this isnt the reason but it seems out of the water
