    azboxer Can you tell me the timestamp of the ban e-mail and your timezone? To see if we have received it at the same time (which would confirm the ban wave hypothesis).

    Sorry for the late reply been quite busy. Time was 08:48 BST. Still no reply on my appeal but I expected a long delay due to the lockdown.

    Regarding what someone said about it being something that was flagged weeks before, I recently returned from a 2month break. This ban occured 9 days into my new subscription. So whatever it is which had my account flagged happened within quite a short period. I'm certain it's automatic due to player reports and not the system flagging isboxer itself. I noticed much higher hostility towards multiboxers on my server upon my return than before my break.

    Think this has taken its course. These issues are always between you and Blizzard.

    False positives have happened on occasion. If you know you did not do anything wrong, contest the ban. Sadly with Blizzard's customer support being what it is, you will most likely receive a cookie cutter "we have now confirmed that the initial decision was correct" type response. It might take a few attempts to get them to hear you out, but keep trying. Be politely and explain what you were doing. Some have had luck getting incorrectly applied bans overturned.

    Keep in mind that this suspension was not for what you did yesterday. It would have been weeks ago.

    Yeah that was what I was thinking when @azboxer said he has been banned this morning too.
    I have never done anything against the ToS tho, just normal boxing.
    It's very likely that other multiboxers have been hit by this.

    I would not worry. I have so far taken three teams through SM for the 26 to 42 leveling range.

    Even the false positives are usually from some red flag behavior. All night farming session, flooding AH with hundreds of stacks of ore, non-participation in BGs, avoiding the queue, layer hopping for kills, different b.net accounts, etc.

    Appeals take time, lets wait and see.

    You know I watched this and knew it was going to create some issues...having not played WoW for long so I didn't really know what that would be:

    That could have triggered a lot of reporting, specifically around 3:50. /shrug

    Just saying, could have caused a wave of reporting boxers and tripped a few switches.
