Recent GTA Online Ban Wave Accidentally Targets More Than Just Cheaters
I'm no modder, I don't have hacks, and never, ever glitched the game or exploit it in any way, never went or played in public, only in private friend's server, and still got a ban. The only thing that crosses my mind is when that battle eye thing got forcefully installed on my system, my southamerican internet connection and old pc couldn't manage the game and that spy program at the same time. So, I went single player and I did what most people do when something isn't running properly, Ctrl+Alt+Del and begun shutting down programs manually from the Control Panel. Of course, I force-closed that BEye poison while the game was still running for the sake of testing. The lag and freeze spikes were awful in my end.
Long story short, they've banned me and wiped out my char that took me 7 months of grinding every day. Tried to appeal, but I've got the same copy/paste response five time from five different people, or pseudo people, I don't know anymore. I've never seen a human GM before after all.
Just in case, avoid even opening Win control panel just in case. That program must track your every movment, and no matter what people tell me, I don't trust that junk in my potato.
Anyway, I couldnt run both programs at the same time, so good riddance. The bright side of my story is that I've got rid of that BEye spy program for good.
Now I know to stop playing and not buying an online game if the hardware and connection minimum requirement changes eleven years later, and never ever play a game with the BEye junk, just in case.
