I wouldn't be too worried, in all honesty. Even if your system does end up banned, all you need to do is get a new seed for your console.

Just as a precaution, I'd avoid going online, but you should be aware that even if you haven't touched your system in weeks, the ban was probably being set in motion a month or more ago.

I turned on my system, went into my friends list and checked to see if I got the error and I didn't. Then I went into Pokemon Sun (updated because apparently I missed one) and checked if I was banned. Everything worked.

I'm still not banned. Either they're slow at doing this or there's a different underlying cause that no one has identified.

Oki thanks! But its not that if you block wifi and such, youre risk free? Cause im even scared to turn my 3ds on.

As a precaution, I've only turned my system on for a moment at a time (every few hours) to see if I've been banned by looking at my friends list, but I don't know if or when I'll be banned, myself.

I'd say just don't worry about it. You can stay offline, but it probably won't make a difference. Just play your games.

Just FYI, if you disable your internet (turn off your router or unplug your modem) and then turn on your system, you can disable the wireless connection on your 3DS (should be a drop-down menu option where the Change Themes and Settings buttons are) and protect yourself while still playing your system.

Long story short, turn off your internet, then turn on your system, disable the system's internet and avoid homebrew stuff for the time-being. Your system will be disabled from online connectivity.

One last thing, I disabled the internet of my system. Someone said i should disable sharing titles. Is that effective and how do I do that? I mean I just want to play it safe and I dont know if this is enough.
