Rankomonaut.4708 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Hello players, did anyone get the suspension for no reason aswell?My wife and me just finished our wvw dailies and suddenly got the suspension at the same time."Your Guild Wars 2 account has been suspended for modifying or tampering with the game, which is a breach of the User Agreement and Rules of Conduct. Access will be restored in 4320 hour."Question is... what did I do? I only use TacO for trib SAB (although after last week I'm done, so I quit it.) I also use the arcdps buildtemplate thing - for the build template only.Strange is that my wife does not use any of these. Help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FerrenoNL.7928 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 I just got the suspension too. Likewise all I run is ArcDPS (with build templates) and TacO. Im presuming either of those is not allowed anymore.Gaile, forwarding to a generic information post is not very helpful. I've submitted a support ticket and will await Anet's replies there in private.@OP I recommend you do the same :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rankomonaut.4708 Posted April 12, 2018 Author Share Posted April 12, 2018 Thank you for your reply.While I totally understand that things must be done against players that use illegal software to hurt the game in whatever form, I'm kind of baffled and a angry that my wife and me got it suspended for using TacO (which was always fine afaik) (and must be the thing since it's what my wife used too).€dit: Yes, support ticket went out at the same time.

Well. i am sorry this has happen to you, good luck in the future and everything is a learning experience. @"Rankomonaut.4708" said:Hello players, did anyone get the suspension for no reason aswell?My wife and me just finished our wvw dailies and suddenly got the suspension at the same time."Your Guild Wars 2 account has been suspended for modifying or tampering with the game, which is a breach of the User Agreement and Rules of Conduct.

Oglaf.1074 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Both arcDPS and tacO are supposed to be kosher based on previous Anet comments/policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aandiarie.7195 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 I thought anet said you can use a thing for stuff that doesn't give you an advantage. O_O :open_mouth: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrizzFreston.5290 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 So much for you'll find information here... I mean all I read there is that a thousand accounts have been banned. Still no reason what for. What can I do to avoid that etc. I haven't used any lately so that's good, but still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aandiarie.7195 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 I don't use that stuff, but I thought there was a post a long time ago about something where use can use an action 1 for 1 or something where it was okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ardenwolfe.8590 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 As far as I'm aware, TacO is still allowed. I have no idea what the other program is. I strongly suspect it is another program that allows users to cheat in PvP . . . if all those threads are any indication. Edit: 1:37 in the video above. Unless something has changed, it can't be TacO, but clarification would be awesome . . . just in case.Edit #2: It's not TacO or Arc according to this.

Darknessz.9650 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 there is a HUGE problem in pvp and Higher TIER use programs to cheat and look at other player gears. how i know of this is during duel set up in private lobby. players would tell me about why i am using traits, rune and even sigil including amulets after losing many times to them or seeking guidance to play a class or elite system and this is which is breaking pvp overall seeing everything rather than experiencing each players builds unknown > @Ardenwolfe.8590 said:As far as I'm aware, TacO is still allowed.

Vyrulisse.1246 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 No appeals for anyone A.net? Really? You've been wrong before. Why do people hit by this have no option to have their situation looked at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julius Seizure.4985 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 People have been sniffing opponents builds and able to see things like enemy mines and traps for a while. I wonder if this is related?OP, maybe you don’t do this, but does some of the software you have include this feature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are certainly far more accounts using ArcDPS and/or TACO than that.Without evidence, I conclude that ArcDPS & TACO remain fine. And further, until proven otherwise, I'll assume that at least some of the people complaining about the suspension are being disingenuous about what software they use, some don't realize that there's an issue with another piece of software, some might have forgotten a previous use.And sure, based on past experience with such things, probably a couple of the 1600 accounts involved some mistake on ANet's part. I'm sure ANet took all possible steps to reduce that possibility as much as possible, especially knowing that they would publicize this mass-suspension, but there's no system so perfect that it prevents mistakes from happening. Still, in the absence of any evidence to the contrary, I'm inclined to accept ANet's description.tl;dr I doubt very much that the issue is with TACO or ArcDPS.

Papa Smurf.4792 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 I got banned too, and i dont use any 3rd-party software. i have one hotkey on my mouse linked to 1 skill.

Ardenwolfe.8590 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 If you look at the Reddit thread linked above, the developers indirectly list the programs that caused the suspension . . . if you look carefully. =) Otherwise, I'd appeal anyway. ANet has admitted mistakes have been made in the past. Might be a cause of such again. Just be aware, if it's not, ANet can call you out on it too . . . which is always hilarious.

The thread said they suspended 1583 accounts but I find it hard to believe only 1583 had arcdps and/or taco. Taco is simply an overlay and all arcpds does is read screen information so they should both be okay to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
