ThugAngel | | #1 | Wed Sep 23, 2026 3:40 AM | | Delete | Hi all, I got banned without any reason given by the site. I feel i've no recourse other than the appeal option which i've done and heard nothing.
I do make use of a VPN on the regular and have seen from other sources that this may have triggered an auto ban by mistake.
Just wondering if there is anything i can do other than post here and ask for help and submit the ban appeal? |

chuka | | #2 | Wed Sep 23, 2026 5:40 PM | | Delete | i have the same issue - and do have the same usage of VPNs for work and private security on my devices - if this is the reason maybe a moderator can bring clarity? |

shadowkaiser0 | | #3 | Sun Oct 4, 2026 11:19 AM | | Delete | I was also banned a few days ago, no reason was given, I wasn't even posting in the last couple of days. I don't even know what the Ban Appeal process is, how can they contact me if I'm banned, and there is no dm/mail feature on the forums? |

Satel | | #4 | Sun Oct 4, 2026 2:11 PM | | Delete | I don't know when I got banned, but yesterday I tried to open my account and it turns out I got banned. I've appealed but not heard a reason yet. |

Wulord | | #5 | Mon Oct 5, 2026 12:10 AM | | Delete | Hi, I also logged in after a while of inactivty yesterday to find my account banned. No VPN-use for me though. But also no reason given and I never got into any trouble while playing as far as i can tell. |

Chadfill | | #7 | Sat Oct 10, 2026 1:58 PM | | Delete | Me too, what I mostly do is submit customs and playtest cards. The last person I dueled was a chill guy too, so I don't think they reported me. |

Brilliand | | #8 | Sat Oct 10, 2026 6:16 PM | | Delete | I've heard (from DistantCoder's stream) that the admins here have a tendency to let forum reports languish for a long while, then suddenly act on them with no notice to the reporter or the reported. So it's probably an old forum report that got you.
I hope you all find out what you were banned for! |

chuka | | #9 | Sun Oct 11, 2026 4:22 PM | | Delete | We‘re all still banned and as for me i appealed on the ban asking for reason and offering my Support now 3 weeks ago? No words from DB - can we do something?
As for me yes i‘m using different VPNs on my devices if i violated any Security policies with that from DB i‘m sorry and will for sure adjust my usage of VPNs on the devices i Play DB on |
