Got greeted with this message today. I've been playing Apex on linux for more than a year. Not sure if this could be related? Is this just me?

I've contested the ban and I'm currently waiting for a response from ea support.

UPDATE : Got an email response from EA today. It's basically a generic message saying that my account was associated with "cheating practices" and so they will not remove the ban.

This is absolutely fucking ridiculous! I've been playing this game since 2020 and have 3K+ hours on record, now this shit happens and there's no recourse ? Fuck this company.

You sound like most of the trolls I see on places like 4chan and kiwi who assume or make up awful shit about people to justify their behavior towards them. What's more important is that you don't have any proof OP is a bad-faith actor. You're fostering ill-will of someone based on an assumption. Oh wait you're going to say that you blieve that the "proof" is that other people do it so therefore OP did it? Yeah that's called circular logic, you are making an assumption about the OP and then coming to the conclusion based on that assumption. We've seen trolls do this all the time, it's a common tactic and it does indeed sometimes work on those who don't recognize the fallacy, or those who are afraid of standing up, two things that are absolutely not the case here in this community, people do recognize the fallacy, and people here aren't afraid to stand up against people who are fostering ill-will towards others without merit.
