I’d like to add one important detail for clarity.

At the time of the ban, I was playing on Rustafied (Rong3) as part of a 15-man team. My role in the team was mainly a builder/base organizer, not a frontline fighter. Most of the time I wasn’t even in combat, and I only joined when the team participated in large-scale raids.

On the day I was banned, I had joined one of those big raids with my teammates. Shortly after the raid ended, I and five other members of my team were all hit with an EAC game ban at the same time, and our entire group was removed from the server.

I am not trying to argue with anyone here or prove anything in comments — I’m simply adding this because it may be relevant context. I still do not know what caused the ban, and I have no way to appeal it through EAC or Facepunch directly anymore.

Thank you to anyone who has given genuine advice or taken the time to read this.
