APB Reloaded

[Gaige18]

Hi all, just thought I'd spread the word about some recent events with Reloaded Productions banning a large amount of people with no reason given and no support.

I've been playing the game "APB Reloaded" for quite some time now. I know a lot of people don't like it, but it's very fun to me. ANYWAY. 773 hours of gameplay and $610 later, I've been banned for absolutely no reason. I streamed myself playing quite a bit here so you can clearly see I don't hack or anything.

I'm pretty anti-social, so I know they didn't ban me for stupid comments or anything like that. But, I tried to log in a few days ago and it told me my account was blocked. I went to my email and they sent me this.

"Dear Player,
Your GamersFirst account has been suspended in the past 24 hours. The ban reason falls in the category of APB Violation Auto Ban. If you would like further details about your suspension you may contact support for further clarification at http://support.gamersfirst.com.
If you have already reached out to customer service about your suspension then you may disregard this notification."

I opened a ticket and asked them to review my account a little bit harder, because I know I haven't done anything wrong...a day later, I get this email.

"Thank you for contacting Gamers First Customer Support. We regret to inform you that your account has been permanently suspended.

Someone with access to this account was observed performing an inappropriate activity which violates our posted Terms of Service policy. This account has been permanently closed due to behavior contrary to the policies of our Terms of Service.

This is the automated e-mail they've been sending all of us. After ONE ticket, they immediately blocked my e-mail from sending further tickets, and I've received no support on the forums.

For more information on this matter, the thread is still open on G1 forums. Select Accounts - Punkbuster Ban Reversal - GamersFirst Forums - Page 34
The punkbuster bans have been reversed by punkbuster, however the people still banned under G1's failed auto ban have been given no attention (other than being called full of shit).

And for the record, I *would've* recommend this game to you guys, but after a random ban on a legit player (and many others) all I have to say is this company is ****ing disgusting.

moral of the story, do not be a dick in a game that bans you for it :/

I played this game in my downtime from WoW. 773 hours and I never made a friend on it or spoke to anyone, really. MANY people were banned and given the same automated message, and they have no intention of helping us.

then screw them and do not play their games.

Exactly. This is to deter anyone from playing a game made by G1. Their business practices are the worst I've ever seen and it sucks for those of us who didn't know before we started playing. Basically I lost 773 hours of my life and $610 because they felt like it.

Quoted from another forum, this guy says it best.

alot of rumors in the forums and over the APB existence (before renamed to APB Reloaded) that game moderators ban people just because they wake up on the wrong side of the bed that day. Another rumor is banning people who spend alot of money in the game so they create other account and spend more money.
