Subject: console banned from earning credits

For some reason my console has been temporarily banned from earning credits. does anyone know why this happens? and how long it will take before i can earn them again? cheers

A first time credit ban lasts two weeks. You were most likely banned for AFKing. Due to the fact that the system only bans people that do the behavior an excessive number of times, there is no appeals process.

The Internet is an empowerment tool that's agnostic; it doesn't care about race, gender, or age.

Stop saying that, it's decidedly untrue. I've explained it to you more than once as well, if I remember right. The ban for AFK'ing is almost always 24 hours for first offense, and 1 week for subsequent. I do it to myself on a weekly basis.

The messages for 2 week and 1 month bans tell you how long they are, so people asking how long their ban is obviously saw the generic message that is only for 24 and 1 week bans. I figured I've re-posted it enough, but apparently not.

To repeat myself, yet again:

For reference, the messages it displays on your console are

24 hours or 1 week: "You have been temporarily banned from earning credits."

2 week: "You have been temporarily banned from earning credits for 2 weeks."

1 month: "You have been temporarily banned from earning credits for 1 month."

Nope. Same thing happened to me except it was my nephew. He got zero kills in many games. I learned my lesson.

And OP, unless it has happened before, it's only a 24 hr ban.
