BF4? In MoHW I’m 99,9% sure that no one using Win10 was banned only Win7 and 8.1 users.
All these BF4 and Win10 bans were Global PB Bans without violation number? In MoHW it was different then.
Edit: I’m able to enter PB-streaming servers again. Wonder for how long…
I just checked… violation number is 74004. Initially, the violation number was visible after PB kick. Eventually it dropped off and the kick message became PB global ban.
On another note, I think PB just unbanned players that received #74006 violation number. I saw that on a post yesterday… Unfortunately it wasn’t my group. Damn close though. Maybe there’s some hope still.
Guess it wasn’t long. PB kicks again, hahaha.
Just wanted to join the party.
Played since launch, maxed out with legit game play and I’m rewarded with a GUID ban in September. Opened ticket with EB and EA with no resolution. I have to say though the customer service with EA was amazing even though they couldn’t help. EB on the other hand has yet to even acknowledge my existence.
Happened on Win 7 playing through Battlelog.
Thing is I am happy and ready to let BF4 go even though it’s a pretty dirty setup EB/EA has, but the part that is eating me alive is that I will never know what the hell I did to deserve it.
If this is how EA wants to treat legit customers then I am going to find it very hard to support them with future products.
Also I just noticed that Even Balance updated the main page with this:

Third party sites take violations and make them into their own bans. Global guid bans are not the same as a violation iirc.
Oh I know, but if EvenBalance declares a violation a false positive, I can use that to appeal those third party bans.
Evilbalance said only that this violation was “maybe” caused by a harmless application. the server admins who bans everyone who got a ban in another game will not remove you from their banlist. its called narrow-minded.
there are more games like bf which are not from EA.
one natural law in bf is: if you play it daily, you get baned sooner or later in most popular servers. the admin-staff-peoples just think you are this or that person(who they want to ban, because he said thing which are bad), just because your name is more in their mind than others, who dont play that often.

False banns are not good for business. The games are 75% off and I could get BF3P-4P back for $20, but I’m not going too. Not today. Two EA games aren’t even worth $20 to me now and I spend that just on gum balls in COD. lol. And I’m a BF player, vet and all that. Way to go.
So, finally migrated to Windows 10. Now I’m still unsure whether to buy another copy of BF4 to play without that stupid ban again. Not only would I lose my progress and unlocks, it’d mean I would reward this practice and the negligence it stems from. Also there is no statement whatsoever showing I would be safe from getting another false ban, meaning I could potentially double the money I threw into this mess. I really would like to escape the cheater ridden non PB servers though. -.-
as long you have the same hardware you will get baned again.
of course when you install origin, register yourself with the same iq as the “baned” computer before you maybe get also baned.
and of course when you use your name to register…
Just not sure what to make from this. Is this somehow verifiable or stated somewhere or just your gut feeling and “I guess that’s how it works”? Moving to get a new IP and getting new hardware altogether can not be the only way to get out of this crazy ban?
As much as I did not want to give EA any more money after this stunt I caved and purchased the bare minimum account so I can play classic maps and I haven’t been banned yet even with the same hardware so I guess its safe even though its an absolute ¯_(ツ)_/¯ situation.
Yeah even 5 bucks seems like to much. I can still play on some servers, but not ones that support bs faults cross over banns. The game is becoming more about principle, so the server that supports the bs is no better to me and I’ll play where I can. Those servers are the ones that get my thumbs up.

Is it true that certain skilled Server admins can cast PB bans or somehow trigger these for a GUID?
