I have been banned for a day for violating fair play rules. I have never cheated, stalled or violated any rules. I only play heads up, so there is no way I could have ever been accused of collusion. I have been a player for over 5 years, I’m a grandmaster, a top 100 player and I have no idea what I did wrong. Is this a bug?? Has this happened to anyone else? I’m really dumbfounded.

Are you one of those guys who plays , then leaves for a while and let's the bot play for you and then comes back nearer the end for victory?

@empty saddle Never. I have never cheated or manipulated the game in any way. I never chat with anyone, but to say good game. I’m a clean player. I put in a ticket and still haven’t received a response.

2nd time for me also being banned for no absolute reason . No response from support on my ticket this time . Seems to be a normal thing here i guess . Pretty sad , Risk , which is a board game a lot of grew up to playing harmlessly is now controlled by an entity that can restrict your rights at will . I must have played someone that did not like something . I am also someone thats not into any kind of manipulation of this game .

I have started seeing some players just stack their capital and not make any attempt to take a continent, I was taking the board and wondering when the stacked capital was going to make a move, they never did when they could have done some serious damage.
Don't know why someone would just stack for 45 minutes- seems pointless. But to another player it looks like its a colluding player trying to draw your armies away for their other player to take the board.

I just got banned for a day as well and I don't know why. I never cheat. I don't leave and come back. I don't have any hacking abilities and I don't have two accounts or work with anyone I know. I just play a lot of risk. If i was cheating I think i'd be ranked higher than intermediate

Agreed…I am banned on a weekly basis because the AI flags my account because I play only 1v1 against expert and higher.

My guess is that when 3 players report you (in a day/week) you get a ban.
Happened to me once for "stalling" after an endgame with a guy who attacked in milliseconds.
Apparently others reported me too, I'm usually quite slow.

I guess it's the same for "collusion" - when 3 people think you're sus...

I was just banned for the second time. No explanation. I do not interact with any players outside risk. i dont leave to let the robot play and then come back. I have asked for an explanation so if I am doing something i might be able to modify what i do. i play many times a day and play expert and above so i see a lot of the same people when i play. wondered if someone was pissed off because i beat them and filed a complaint. Very frustrating!!! No recourse or chance to defend yourself.

I just got banned again for 48 hours for doing nothing. I thought it might be a glitch. Very confused by it. I hadn’t even been winning either, losing 4 of the last 6 games to start the new season. I just don’t understand this at all.

does it say for what? stalling? collusion? fake bot out maybe?
