BGMI Banned Account: Every game developer faces a serious problem with the release of games that is cheaters and hackers. Krafton is facing the same problem with their newly launched title BGMI. Battlegrounds Mobile India is one of the most popular Battle Royale mobile games in India. Krafton has permanently banned 2519692 accounts from October 1 to November 10 for hacking and cheating in Battlegrounds Mobile India.
Krafton posted, “Dear BATTLEGROUNDS MOBILE INDIA fans, At the end of September, we promised you that fair gameplay has always been and will be our priority. Today, we have some good news for you.”
Cheaters have no place in BGMI and in order to provide a fair gameplay environment to our players, we’ve been taking severe measures to remove cheaters from the game. Yes, we are aware that many players ran into cheaters even after we made our previous announcement on Sep 30th. We now have cleaned out most of the cheaters in the game, making BGMI a much more fun experience, and will continue to take whatever step is necessary to keep BGMI fair and fun.
BGMI Banned Account: Krafton has permanently banned 2519692 accounts from October 1 and November 10, Check how to Avoid
Here’s an update of what’s happened since our last announcement.
Total Number of bans (Oct. 1 ~ Nov. 10)
– Permanently banned : 2,519,692 accounts
– Temporarily banned : 706,319 accounts
Please note, that all of these are just in over a month. We’ve made further and stronger efforts to make BGMI free of cheaters. Here are four steps, that we have taken and we will be doubling down on.
- Stronger Cheat Detection and Banning Mechanism- Our systems continue to evolve as we bring near real-time ways to detect cheats and ban users from employing illegal means.
- Permabans- We had initially worked on the model that first offenders will be handed out temporary bans, but as of now, we have shifted all bans to permanent bans. There’s no room for a second chance now.
- Manually verify and ban any accounts that use promoting illegal programs among high-rankers. We are monitoring accounts that used or promoted illegal programs among high-rankers in real-time. If there’s any illegal program used found, we are banning them permanently immediately.
- Blocking YouTube channels- We are monitoring real-time in YouTube for any channels that promote illegal programs, and if found, we are blocking the channels immediately while working with YouTube.
Based on such measures taken, the number of accounts that are being banned has significantly increased compared to before and resulted in a decrease in the number of reports made in the game.
Before we leave, a few things for you to remember.
- If you are using cheat tools, you will get banned eventually, if not immediately.
- Don’t share your accounts with anyone. Apart from the obvious implication of losing your social media access, it might be used to test cheat tools, and your account will be banned.
- Keep reporting – We sometimes take time due to the sheer number of reports, but we do eventually take action after proper consideration.
- Doesn’t matter if you have spent UC, or have not been detected earlier, or if you have a social media presence, if you cheat or use cheating tools (or have used in the past) you will be handed a permanent ban.
Lastly, an amazing round of thanks to all of you who play BGMI, and support us on our social media. It means a lot. We have come a long way in the past month in removing cheaters, and we want to thank you for the countless reports and support you’ve shown us along the way.
