This Auction House Ban is BS.

So, EA finally releases a non-ltd 93 OVR LT.  It's selling for 400K.  

I get banned posting C Hinton and T Williams 92 OVRs (and others) for 288K to 290K.  I bought them for under 175K while "everyone was getting ready for zero chill".  Hinton and Williams were 2 of the 3 best non-limited LT's in all of mut up until this weekend.  300k is not an out of this world price.  I was getting 369k for ward and 349k for surtain.  They kept running out of the cheap ones and I'd manage to get 1 maybe 2 sold before the auction house was full again.

If everyone wants to dump their 92's and I'm gobbling them up...that's not an exploit or a cheat.  I'm on my console too, not an app.

You guys know, all those 92s I bought...are  94's on theme teams.  I got 425K for J Rice, somebody probably forgot he was a seahawk, sold him and bought him back (like I did with Oren Burke).  I was priding myself on getting the maximum sale on MUT.gg's  player pricing stats, which I've done a few times.

I'm using my fingers and thumbs on my controller,  no bots or third-party software.

That's against TOS. 

Let it go.

Wait how

Im sorry bro. I couldn't imagine getting unfairly banned . I would probably just quit madden unless you can plead your case to EA. Many ppl have gotten their ban removed so i would contact EA support and raise hell especially if you've spent money on mut.

I got banned in August 2022 and it pissed me off so bad I didn't play Madden again untill last week so I definitely know how you feel.

I read the TOS.  It's not against it.  They're gonna have defend themselves and win arbitration.  Then I'll let it go,

I'm appealing the ban and requesting my coins back.  I'm willing to escalate on principal.

It's not...I read it.  What I did was pretty simple and easy to describe and it's not farming by EA's definition.

The part "getting the maximum sale on MUT.gg's  player pricing stats" is what got you in trouble.  As I understand the ban evaluation process, it has no way to know what you originally paid for the cards and how much profit you are making.  However, it does look for outlier sales and transitions.  Anytime you are at or near the upper extreme of what people have purchased a card for, there is a RISK that it could get flagged.   This risk is even higher if you sell a card right before a market crash.

I intentionally avoid trying to avoid ending up at the very upper end of the price range as the risk of a ban is not worth the extra coins.  

Sorry that you have to go through this but hopefully others can learn from your situation.
