I keep getting "banned by anti-cheat" yet its a 2 hour game suspension from EAC and then I can keep playing after. This has happened 2 times but the main issue is battlemetrics and their system now have the suspensions listed as "bans" on their system. This system is used by multiple servers to filter out cheaters so now I can't play on my main 2 servers. I have attached multiple photos of the bans/suspensions and then proof that my account is currently clean. Anybody else been having these suspensions?

my stats lol 6500 hours

this is the website that BM uses for filters (steamid) which hasnt updated since. If it updated it would go from 1 to 0

This is my account now

It's been over a year since the appeal and I have been sitting on pending. I am still getting zero contact from EAC or Facepunch Studios. I know some people might think this attempt is silly but, I tried using the Attorney General from my state and they can do international businesses since it happened within my state of the purchase of the game. EAC or Epic Games in this case did respond and stated the game developers are the one responsible and that EAC simply provides the software. So, they turned their attention to Facepunch Studios. Facepunch did not respond to them at all. The AG made some suggestions of what I could do, but I am unsure if trying small claims or private attorney could work.

I am unsure what could realistically be done as I genuinely last played Rust over 9 years ago and the simple fact that I can't be given even a chance to dispute my pending status for my "gameban" is pretty ridiculous.

I usually play Rust for like 1-2 weeks every month, and I recently got banned. I believe it was a false ban, but I honestly have no idea what caused it.

I’m also a Project Zomboid modder, so I’ve downloaded a lot of different mods, tools, and random stuff over the years. Some of it might look sketchy, but I don’t know if any of it could have caused the ban.

I’ve never knowingly used cheats on Rust, so I’m really confused about the ban.

I got banned in like 2018 I was stoned and deleted a CFG file thinking it would give me better fps. I launched the game and immediately was EAC banned. I’ve tried on an off for years to reverse this and it’s never worked. And now, I tried again and I just can’t? The reference ID in game is gone. Is there a 3rd party to where I can get my case number to get this appealed. And what are good strategies for getting unbanned afterwards? I already have 2nd account I just want my skins and main account back.

Soooo…to start off i have been banned but honestly it wasn’t a unwarranted.

However, to clarify, I didnt cheat, i clicked a link which led to someone taking my steam account and google account (i got like 5 different notifications at the same time on my phone, and i had 2FA on every single account i had like discord, google and steam had about max security, etc.) for maybe like 3 hours, i took my accounts back, got back inside the game to play and boom it said gamebanned.

I knew why and how and I was shocked the guy managed, of all games I have, to cheat in RUST and get me banned within 2-3 hours.

I got like 20 different emails in chinese at the time emails as proof and some other stuff.

I was mostly a PvE player, when i first started playing the fame there was this one guy who taught me how to play and everything.

Ever since the day I first joined that server I never stopped playing on it

I have over 500h on the game and its been almost 580 days since the ban.

Every now and then my heart literally aches and sometimes I submit a ticket to facepunch to stop sucking eac off (sorry for bad language, cant describe it differently) and ask for support or something

Lately I’ve been trying to self host and play solo but i cant do even that, even if i run rustclient.exe (rust without eac or something apparently) and it still says gamebanned when I try to connect to my own dedicated server.

Summary or something:

I have tried to appeal to Facepunch like 8 different times the last 580 days, but nothing.

Also I have tried to appeal to eac twice, got rejected both times and was scared to appeal a 3rd time

Now a question:

do I have any hope? I am ready to buy the game again if i wont get autobanned or something.

Its like you have your best friends that went to another country permanently but you cant go to or with them because you are forbidden entrance there and dont have enough money for the ticked either

The sole reason I posted this is because I read that if this is your only ban or something you can get unbanned.

I made a new account ~7 months after the ban and bought the game just to try and see if I got unbanned and understand my situation better. I only remember that I couldnt join any server on the other account, forgot what the console said.

This has been my one and only ban i have ever gotten on my steam account, and the only time I have ever cheated in my life was back in 2013 on a laptop in minecraft on a cracked server (where everyone had killaura and reach) because I couldnt afford minecraft as a kid

Thank you for reading and please tell me some things that could help me and even more importantly-be real, if you think i have no hope, just say it. I think i need to hear it if i really have no hope

Hello everyone,

I am writing this post to request a manual log review from Facepunch or the Easy Anti-Cheat team. My account was recently banned by EAC, and I am 100% sure this is a false positive.

I have never used any cheats, scripts, hacks, or macros in Rust. The only software running in the background while I was playing was Discord (for voice chat with friends). I did not have any other third-party tools, overlays, or suspicious programs active.

My Details:

* My SteamID64: 76561199071300981

* Background Apps: Only Discord and Steam.

Update on my appeals:

I have already submitted official appeal tickets directly to Epic Games, Facepunch Studios, and the Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) ban support portal. Unfortunately, my tickets have been completely stuck in their automated systems for 56 days now. It seems like no human is actually reviewing them, and I’m just getting automated ghost responses or static pending status. This is exactly why I am looking for a human developer here to do a manual connection log check.

Thank you for your time and understanding.

It appears that there has been a mass false ban wave that has happened today.

Has anyone else gotten a EAC ban? Literally was banned this morning after playing for 6 months straight with no issues.
