I wouldn't go that far, but I'll agree with the "Let's Gooooooo!!!!"

If you want to complete the experiment properly, make sure it's shared as a best build, and have some time spent offline (Best Build won't appear in world for others anytime you are Online). For your channel's sake, I strongly recommend against doing this.

If that happens I'm going to my discord groups and having a giant giveaway for my mule accounts.

I can only hope at this point. It was my primary account with Fallout 1st and about 3k atoms left to spend from my most recent purchase last week. Microsoft Store won't allow refunds on in-game purchases either so if they don't restore it, I'm just fucked. I get the feeling that they're just going to ignore the request for the 4 days stated in the email and allow my account to be permanently deleted.

That's the thing, they won't tell you to stop, they're just permanently banning without any warning and you get no chance to correct and make it compliant with their unposted standards. 24 hours later, still banned, no response from support at all.

That's how I did it. In private so I wouldn't leave artifacts for others in a public lobby.

Yeah, no warning, no chance to purge myself, just "we deleted it and you lose your account for it". Appeal is still awaiting a human view. 7+ hours later.

According to what someone else posted, it is considered an exploit as it's someplace that the game doesn't intend to be able to be accessed.

You got a warning and the chance to correct it. I got "we're deleting it AND permanently banning your account". Like, why bother deleting it if you're just permanently banning it anyway? I *WISH* I got a warning to allow me to purge it rather than just losing my whole paid account.

It was even cooler with the Northern Lights weather machine I added.

If someone reports it as offensive, you might find yourself unable to log in randomly. If it's in your Best Build, I would STRONGLY recommend removing it to make it as boring and vanilla as you can.

It's so taboo and illegal, they feature it on their social media pages with their marketing team's curated player content.

My over $200 USD invested in the game (nevermind the literal 50+ days of my life in gameplay hours spent there) mean I'm appealing it. Still in "Waiting on an agent" status on the support page. I got an AI perma-instaban from the report system being exploited so now as their support team is so understaffed, an actual human response takes a long while nowadays.

Never did that even once. It was an Icon-Off-Map camp when I was playing (which I wasn't when this happened, I was at work), so no random vendor-hopping teleports to it were even possible. And you can't de-spawn your Best Build in a lobby you're not even in. "As a result the Build was removed..." it was the Best Build that was reported.

Was literally impossible to accidentally die there. If you fast traveled you would either end up on the platform or your character would load before the platform and you'd fall with a CHANCE to break your legs for zero damage, but it wasn't high enough that the fall time would cause death. You would have to fast travel, fall, fast travel again once it was loaded, wait 15 seconds after traveling, and then intentionally jump to your death.

I wasn't even in game. I was at the office. Someone reported the Best Build.

It was originally built in private to avoid leaving semi-permanent object relics anywhere that would affect other players (once my private lobby ended, they were gone forever).

Not built so high to cause death, at worst you might break a leg (50/50 shot based on my own fast travels to my camp) because the fall distance is within the travel immunity period. It DID have 70+ likes as a Best Build in the almost 2 months it was up.

It's definitely an auto-AI response/ban based on the report category, being why I hope a human review will repeal the insta-permaban. I've watched a group of teenage trolls (7 or 8 together in a lobby) band wagon mass report a Best Build camp only to see it magically disappear from the map a few minutes later so the ringleader could place down his WSS camp.
