wow im such a noob. help with ban?

Post by cyray7 »

*sigh*. today was a pretty sucky day. basically what happened was this...

i wake up, excited to have a funfilled day of wc3, and hopefully level up. first i decide to play a few custom games, and of course i hacked.. :). also, i used a maphack which was detected by ladder, but was obviously fine in custom games. after i finished my custom game, i immediately went to a ladder game. once the game started, i immediately recieved the message "your cd-key has been disabled". i log off warcraft 3, and immediately search the internet for fixes, but i find nothing of value. so i figure, oh well hopefully it will be "unbanned" after a while...then i remember. Xantan posted a list of free cd-keys. YES! i quickly download the cd-key changer he posted and enter one of the cd-keys. turns out these CD keys were IP banned. when i try to access battle net i get the error message "you were unable to connect to the battle.net server". this only happens on US WEST and US EAST. i can connect to Europe and Westfall (beta), just fine, i havent tried asia. my question is this: when will i be un-ip banned, and when will my cd-key work in ladder again? also, does trying to connect to the servers/ladder games reset the ban-timer (will it make me have to wait longer)? Also, would buying a new game and getting another legit cd-key work? also, i have a static IP so i dont know how to change it if thats even possible to get around the IP ban. any help would be appreciated!

IP bans last only 24-48h or one week afaik.
Anyway, your key is banned, that's bad!
I think it will work again for custom games after a while... (maybe a month?)
I never had this problem, so I can't tell you for sure. But I think I heard of that.
Anyway, the ladder ban will last, so you won't be able to play on ladder with this key!

I think the ladder bans are permanent, and normal bans go for up to 2 weeks..

Your IP Ban will only last a while, but if your CD-Key is banned you might as well call it quits and don't click me another for any enjoyment on WC3. If it is 20 bucks thats pretty cheap considering it is 40 here for both RoC and TFT. I would just wait a few days and get a fresh copy.

Bans are permanent for ladder games, but the IP ban will go away. Btw, trying to access it while it's still banned will increase the ban length, so only try it once a day.
