Gaming Has anyone gotten banned from playing Pokemon Moon online?

[Deleted-19228]

If anyone plans on unbanning themselves and re-using their save, unless there's some concrete proof to the contrary, do not do it. While the game does track your playthrough using your local system time which wouldn't hold up in a court of law, this is not a court of law and Nintendo could see it and ban you for it. Once you register for a trainer card all of the information from your save will hit their servers showing you did in fact play early. I suggest NOT going online with that save at all. Pokemon also have the dates they were found hardcoded into them. Yes, you could edit anything timed and save it but it would be better in my opinion to dump it altogether.

No one knows, just do what people have advised.. for now, if that does happen having no traces of the games on your system is the best way to currently avoid any further repercussions

you dont need third party software? just the fbi?

Nope, just FBI be updated to the latest version[/QUOTE]
ok thx alot, so i already deleted the cia and then i delete the ticket separately right? did you personally do this?

 

[proflayton123]

Purely speculation right now. I still don't think there's been any confirmation (or denial, for that matter) on whether more bans have happened since the initial chunk.

There's been no communication from Nintendo on this matter outside of the one statement from a representative, which simply stated that those who accessed the internet features have been banned.
And yet here some of us sit, unscathed...

I mean you don't know, people like me who went online but didn't have no bans YET are still in the red zone due to that, maybe day before release, bam. Hopefully not though, but seeing as they've done this im quite astonished. A major release with the piracy high, they've done a good move~

Bans on pirate, what a delightful thread.

Pip'

Wrong, troll. Bans on EVERYONE. Including those playing legitimate cartridges.

Yeah I did this also, the current safest thing to be doing

 

[alexj9626]

Yes, including the leaked .cia its self, backup your save..

I dont mind deleting the .cia, i was thinking in getting the new ones anyway, but the tickets part is not clear to me.

What would that cause in my 3DS?

So, when I went to bed we were still at the low 90s pages.
Anything important I missed?

But what about those (who haven't/may not) got/get banned? :v Which is what I was planning on doing

Nah, just people getting crazy, like all day long.

If your system date isn't actually the current time when you started the game and it was several months/years off and you wait the same amount of days from when you actually started your playthrough, go for it.

Yeah, I'm in that camp too. That's why I'm feeling so paranoid - I did a Wonder Trade just hours before the bans rolled out and I wasn't touched.
I've got no reason to doubt that they're going to do another wave of bans, which sure doesn't help the anxiety.

Did u delete your game and save you file like I said too do?

Seems over exaggerative. I'd assume the date and times of saves go by your ds time, not a server time. There also shouldn't be any reason your save data info would go to Nintendo.

i have an o3ds xl i don't plan on ever going online with again, to bypass all that hacky stuff, IF i wanted to get eshop access permanently back and online play would I just need the SecureInfo and FriendListSeed from it? I saw a guide awhile back but just wondering what to use. Literally the only reason I even care about this banwave right now is this was my N3DS XL with a capture board =/

Spotpass though

Yep, there's not a single trace of it left on my 3DS. Deleted the game, .cia, save (stored on my PC), Activity Log info, all that stuff.
I doubt it'll even come close to guarantee safety should Nintendo really want to get every single offender, but I agree that it couldn't do any harm.
