This is the regular WZ1 disconnected from Server kick. It kicks ypu from being reported tpp often but no shadow. Enjoy.

They messed up the code and it says Ricochet but without shadowban. One mate of me had the EXACT same thing happening few days ago. Normally since WZ2 if you get disconnected and on the side Ricochet it was with a shadowban. Now in BO6 S3 itd again like in wz1. U can get kicked without shadow.
Just shows how incompetent Activision is with the report system.

Maybe it’s on purpose, they need/want a lot of people playing

Its not false ban, they do it for a long time now. If you get too many reports in match they will simply disconnect you from that match but won't shadow ban you since you don't do any other flags or at least are below limit for shadow ban.

This has been happening for a while now... when you are reported too many times in a match, they disconnect you from the server/match, but you will not be shadowbanned.

They didn't mess anything up, its been more than 2 months like this now. I am sure that once you are disconnected I think that the AI focuses on thes eplayers to watch them play and learn, this makes sense to me now seeing how strong AI detection is compared to what it was when first released.

Whether this is to train the AI or whatever reason its done intentionally.
