Oh, so this explains why you got banned: they’re cracking down on multi-account abusers (which’s not your case, of course) who abuse the system to get a bunch of keys to resell, not to mention the bots.
Well, this makes me get a bit of respect for them. Only a bit. Now, if only they had better ways to get keys from the Vault, I’d respect them much more.
It’s a long story to explain but the main reason is because I have 5 Steam accounts. Even so, I have never abused the Vault Game gifts. Of all the games in the vault games I have only gotten 3 games. All my accounts had almost their maximum arp achieved (around almost 10k) before the ban.
Could it have also been from using VPN? I used to use vpn to connect to the US to get 5 arp by playing the mini-games that Americans and Canadians can play.
But without any response from Alienware other than saying “that my account was suspended for violating the terms and conditions”, I’ll never know the real reason for the suspension.
Un poco abusivo diría yo, resultar baneado de esa manera. Al menos para recuperar mi cuenta para poder usarla de nuevo. Yo no le hacia ni cosquillas a sus regalos. Era una gota de agua en un mar de bots que aparentemente se salen con la suya… xd
Fue extremadamente difícil y agotador elevar esas 5 cuentas a Solar. Yo no se configurar un bot asi que juntaba arp manualmente. Y da una impotencia tremenda ver a cientos de bots incluso ya en Interstellar comentando “Thanks!” y todos sabemos que un bot es el único que escribe de esa manera. Injusto la verdad.
I see. But like I said they’re going after users who have multiple accounts tied to the same IP, shooting first and asking questions later.
People have complained so much about them supposedly abusing the system that they decided to take action.
And yeah, using VPNs there can also get you banned.
