    Hello i have been told that you are able to help on this matter. I am a veteran player since 1998 have never used a VM in my entire life and i was flagged for use of a VM i have petitioned and received no response other then automated one. I played on a single toon for 6 hours and logged out to find out i was suspended. I have 4 or 5 games installed on the pc and an external hard drive for extra space. Diablo 3 / oculus / steam / battle net launcher which is part of diablo and mine craft dungeons. No software of any kind that could be mistaken for a VM. I am extremely upset because now after the suspension they can flag me again for absolutely nothing. In order to keep playing i need to understand how a false positive works and why i was targeted. I know you guys are super buisy and we appreciate you but this is insane to me. I dedicated my life to this game and have never cheated. I can give full specs on pc ect if needed its a brand new dell ordered less then 3 months ago running a 2070 max q and I7. windows 10 fully up to date. Nvidia drivers ect. Absolutely no third party software exists at all on this pc. thanks in advance i need some hope here this is making me crazy.

    It's funny how often people suspended for VM usage play the victim card. You definitely did nothing wrong, and we should feel sorry that you were incorrectly targeted ;)

    Eat your 7 day, lose the VMs, move on with life.

    I just know that they are doing suspension waves for VM usage right now, as people I know that were using them got hit by 7 days also. They were all using VMs. I have a suspicion that this played a big part of the removal of the queues. People were testing the waters with VMs.

    There are a lot of salty tears right now.

    The amazing part is I do have VMs for work on my machine and run them. Yet somehow have never got banned in all these waves. Might have something to do with people are using the VM to play EQ.

    Just speculation though.

    I'm in the same boat. I use VMs frequently on the same machine I use to play EQ. But I *never* use VMs to play EQ. No issues here--never received a suspension or warning.

    Stop using VMs to play EQ on truebox servers, kids. It's that simple. I always chuckle at how shocked people are when they are caught cheating or trying to cheat.

    i often use vm for work and other things, i have NEVER been warned or suspended, people that were banned for vm usage were doing something wrong with the vm, not just having it installed.

    hell ive even had the vm running alongside everquest and NEVER been warned, banned, suspended.
