Kaldena Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Hi, I play as Elli on the Talking Island server on my other account and it was suspended without explanation. I have poured cash into NCCoin and have put a ton of work into the character already having reached level 33 and mostly Top D grade before the adena and drop buff. All of this work was legitimate from good drops and farming my face off. Now I cannot log in to that account. I do not use 3rd party software unless you are counting discord as such, I do not buy adena or bot. I do not sell adena, I was not afk fishing or selling stuff when I was kicked out I was simply EXPing. Please get back to me ASAP on this issue. I have submitted my appeal with as much info as I could cram in and have called your corporate office in California with my personal contact information. As of right now I have no reason to believe that I will not receive great customer service in response to this as I am sure this is just some kind of security error on behalf of NCsoft. Mistakes happen and that is fine. All I ask is that I hear something sooner rather than later due to the fact that I was going to try and push out to level 40 this weekend and now I might have to go out into the real world and do a thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmokyTheFrog Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Also got caught up in this w/ a separate account of mine. Sucks to lose quite a bit of progress as I was already approaching mid 30s, but hoping that this issue can be resolved quickly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I ask is that I hear something sooner rather than later due to the fact that I was going to try and push out to level 40 this weekend and now I might have to go out into the real world and do a thing I've seen you in EG, and you definitely looked legit to me, for what that's worth. My elven oracle got suspended today in similarly ridiculous circumstances. I was just getting done xping as my clan xp buff was wearing off when it got disconnected. When I tried to log back in, it said the account was locked. It's one of 3 boxes I've been running, and like you, I play completely legit. I encourage the banning of bots, as I'd much rather play in a legit environment, and I'm truly shocked at what's going on here. I thought all these people on the forums were lying about being banned for no reason, but it literally happened to me just a few hours ago. I really wanted to capitalize on my THREE chronicle packs working together to get an edge going into this thing... Well, that plan has come to a screeching halt, just like yours. It looks like the best case scenario is the account remaining locked for at least a week. And that's if they even unlock it... Hopefully Hime or Juji can help expedite the investigations into a few of these locks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zevon Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Pro-Tip for those saying they did nothing wrong, please don't. NCsoft doesn't make it a mission to deliberately ban legit accounts. More than likely they will only ban if someone botted or were caught cheating. coming to the forums saying your innocent isn't going to make them undo it.

I played L2 for years and every ban I ever saw went to someone who deserved it. This doesn't make any sense. I get why these stories sound unbelievable, but right now, they sound pretty damn believable to me, since this is exactly what happened to me a few hours ago. I was a skeptic like you, mere hours ago, but that all changed when reality hit me like shotgun blast to the face and one of three of my accounts was locked for "suspicious activity"...

I get what you're trying to say however the amount of posts , replies and issues people are having is too overwhelming for none of them to be innocent. Long story short, it's cute you came to their response but it's obvious you have no clue what's actually going on with anyone's account, just like everyone else is in the dark. Thank you for adding nothing of substance to my post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BodybuilderIRL Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 One of my friends got hit a few ours ago from an automated banwave in EG i think. Here is the ticket number; 22191358. I know you don't handle this stuff, but he is telling me he is legit (im believing him) and Ellie also got hit in EG same time as him. Here is the thread; https://forums.lineage2.com/topic/5317-unwarranted-account-suspension/ . I know it is not your field and I'm probably not your most liked person, but can you please look into this ticket. He is literally raging and || to quit. He has spent lots of money on the game and thinks every account he plays is going to get locked now. PLEASE take a look. If you take a look and it pans out I'll send you a beer. Please look for him!@Juji@Hime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velgof Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 My Lvl. 22 Cleric also got suspended today, She was sitting next to me (my main character Lvl.27) at AC and the client simply disconnected. Now I don't have buffs and heals... Great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kabala Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Hm! Those random ban's doesn't make any sense. Banning 1 account out of 3 and not the entire 3 boxes which of course, are played on the same ip is very suspicious. Especially when you hear that his buffer/healer got banned but not his main! I mean really ? If anything, you "cheat" with your main, and not your healer/buffer. Anyway, I take it that this .. XIGNCODE3 might actually interface a lot more with your computer then it looks and so is making false/positive warnings. Which is bad. I know it scans your "files" for potential blabla's , but it seems is not doing a good job at all. Hm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BodybuilderIRL Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I specifically told my friend not to bot at the beginning of the server launch cuz I knew they'd be banning bots this time around. He definitely wasn't botting, and it wasn't a payment issue, nor was it a profanity issue. Legit people usually don't get banned, so I'm quite surprised by this. I hope it gets resolved quickly before he rage quits. Mistakes happen sometimes, so if you rly are legit make sure you don't give up hope and just wait for your ticket to get resolved without charge backing or doing something equally as stupid with your remaining chars.

At this point, there is enough smoke over falsely flagged accounts to give a very strong indication that something is fundamentally broken in their process for identifying accounts in violation of the rules.

What's to stop them from simply banning your new toon as well? We don't even know what the hell is going on here... Until there are answers, I can't justify continuing to play, and if my account isn't unlocked then I'm done. NC could've made far more than $240 out of me if they didn't randomly ban one of my three VIP4 accounts... their loss I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRT Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Yep happened to me they finally unlocked my accounts 5 days after I sent my email to support. Took them 3 days to respond 1 day to verify my info, then 1 more day to finish the investigation. Not a big deal for me as I play pretty casually and wanst very far along but I see how it can be a big blow to ppl who spent lots of time. imgur.com/a/yqTz9LP Thats the email reply I got at the very end. Its my opinion that logging in from a diff ip (in my case logging in from work) is what triggered it? That or logging into those accounts on a diff machine for me my laptop and my desktop from home. Though I have no idea could possibly be that the automated ban system is flawed in some way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiterallyName Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Well it's nice to see someone who actually got their account unlocked. I suppose there may at least be some hope for the rest of us... 5 days though... For me, that's 5 days on 3x VIP4 accounts with chronicle packs, which is an outrageous waste for someone who did nothing wrong. I honestly wouldn't have bothered spending this much money if I knew this could happen while doing nothing wrong. This is absolutely insane. No one but the government can get away with this kind of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BodybuilderIRL Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Friend told me he logged into his account yday on accident using a VPN. This is prob what caused his ban. Nothing else makes sense. Hopefully it gets resolved soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BodybuilderIRL Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Canadian friend uses VPN to avoid regional laws for netflix/youtube, so he can watch american stuff. Accidentally logged into L2 b4 turning it off and got sent a code. He immediately turned off the VPN and logged into his account. 24 hours later he got an account locked. Seems pretty cut n dry. Sucks for him. gg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BodybuilderIRL Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 It is nice they are taking a strong stance against the account sharing stuff though.
