Elder Scrolls Online - Recent Account Bans

ZeniMax Online has issued a new statement about the recent account ban due to a bug that allows players to cheat in the games last update.

Here is the statement.

As part of our continuing effort to combat gold spammers, botters and exploiters, we recently banned a number of accounts. After several players appealed, we were able to investigate the matter further and discovered some legitimate accounts got caught up in the sweep. We unbanned accounts last night, and have email responses going out for those affected from our support group. It is never our intention for legitimate players to be harmed as we work to keep your game free of cheaters, and we sincerely apologize for the mistake.

Unfortunately they banned a few players that had nothing to with the the error. I have have another link from Reddit that has more infomation.

I am sure everyone on the subreddit is aware of the recent controversy over item duplication, which has enabled some players to duplicate hundreds of items for millions of gold.

ZOS has now patched this bug and has banned accounts that have taken advantage of the exploit.

During the suspension process some legitimate accounts have also been banned, if this has happen to you please submit a ticket to Zenimax Support

To stop the numerous new posts, please use this thread if you wish to discuss the action taken by ZOS. We will be moderating the thread to remove any insulting posts / accusations / call outs etc.

Please do not post your support requests / ticket IDs here as the subreddit will not be able to help.
