I would not trust anyone who came to the forum to complain that the auto-ban system needed to be turned down because they, or anyone they knew, was caught by it. Period.

This 100%.

ZOS has a full logging system.........

Actually they don't. Never have. Never will. They only get bits and pieces and have to play detective and make a decision from inconclusive evidence. When you say lies like this you are only giving legitimacy to a VERY poor anti cheet system and review process that ZoS has in place.

I'm aware of several people perma banned recently . After hearing them talk about using a program to slightly boost their stats and say it was no big deal and they should be given a second chance , I was shocked . Not at the behavior , but that ZOS actually caught them even slightly boosting . I was happy . I was also shocked that people I thought were legit players were doing this . They said it was the only way to compete because the other factions were doing it . Again , not shocked at the mind set , just shocked at how many people where doing this . They petition for there accounts back admitting no wrong doing . Even before telling the truth to myself . They would of swore up and down on a stack of holy relics to get their account back . What a shame .

I haven't pvpd since that day . Wasn't interested in playing with people that might still have people cheating . This has nothing to do with the OP's case , I just wanted to state aim happy ZOS is finally catching even slight CE users . I don't want them to turn anything down . I want this to go away . Even if it means losing some bad companions along the way .

Again , nothing to do with OP or anyone in this thread , just the anti cheat system .

@Cazzy you might want to take a look at this quote and add it to your thread about the common mindsets the exploiting os needed because "others are doing it"

I really hope Zenimax start addressing things properly instead of just causing constant issues within the community, it's disappointing and just causing constant damage.

Where was this attitude when all those bans went out for the survey exploiting issue. Back then you had a whole different attitude towards ZoS and the way they handled those bans. =(

It's really funny how people don't believe the evidence we get from players because it can easily be tempered with or not the evidence for the actual banning but then just asume stuff about ZOS.
Nice hypocrisy.

So some nameless people at ZOS have private vendettas against players. At least that seems to be what you're saying. ZOS cooks up totally bogus evidence that only some certain players are cheating.

Of the two groups, which one would have the better reason for cheating or altering records? Players, who might be getting the rewards/attention/leader rankings? Or the company who wants to keep players interested in and playing the game to the point they've unbanned people who have openly admitted they were cheating/abusing surveys/whatever? Gee. I wonder which party is the more difficult to believe......

{imo, it isn't the company}

@Phinix1

How do any of us actually know that you do anything for the community? Why should we believe you?

Additionally, how exactly do you support the idea that ZOS is going to make things okay when you fully acknowledge that previous action by ZOS is disgusting?

That is why you find yourself in a debate right now rather than harmonious agreement. Everyone here knows full well how prone to error making ZOS can be, we are concerned for our friends, worried about our future time, and we draw the conclusion that previous mistakes by ZOS set a precedent for them making more mistakes. This seems to be the opposite of your conclusion that, somehow, ZOS will make everything alright.

I'm sure an appeal would have these folks right back in game so...what's the problem? Why the hell do I need to see their videos and debate over things I have no clue about? I can't unban anyone. Send your evidence to ZOS and move on. This isn't a psa to the forum community. You'll forgive people for being suspicious. Since there is no valid reason for this thread to exist, we can only assume it's a plea to have guilty parties reinstated, with bogus evidence.

For a discussion? Doesn't matter whether you can unban them or not, but this discussion is needed if there is a system in place banning innocents

Discuss what? If they are innocent, they will appeal. That is the system already in place. People have used it before, why is this any different? This discussion is completely unnecessary and the longer it goes on, makes it seem as if it was created for another purpose all together.

both guilty and innocent players are being automatically banned, then automatically unbanned after 72 hours without any additional actions... what's the point actually

RDMyers65b14_ESO · July 2016

When ZOS is telling those who were banned to just make a new account, it really shows that it doesn't matter if someone cheats.

@andy.s Jace isn't banned for 72, it doesn't mention that it says it's permanent

It may not be perfect, but nothing like this ever is. But if one in 10 are not hacking then i say thats acceptable percentage to get rid of cheaters. But i might think differently if i were one of the innocents.

After review we are closing this thread.

This was due to bashing comments, discussing disciplinary actions and naming, all are the Forum Rules.

For future discussion, lets please try to avoid this type of content, as it can only go south for the thread.

If anyone wishes to appeal any action on their account, they can do so by submitting a customer support ticket.

Thank you for understanding!
