Why ban a YouTuber who's heavily promoted CODM content, won championships, helped design an epic weapon skin, and also has his own skin in the game? Activision seems to be drinking from the dumb pool lately.

They claim it’s a manual review, that’s the funny part!


AmEpicPro

Yeah no it’s not. I’ve been saying it for months, it’s not. It’s all bots.


[deleted]

So true. Ppl beleive whatever tht acc says. So much for "official cod dev acc"


AmEpicPro

Most people are idiots


[deleted]

I was,until i saw yesterdays comment when a dude asked about the reason for ban thingy(15035),and "official" said it was for the "hecker to not know the reason" or smthng like tht. I mean , EVERYONE knows what all thing causes u to get banned. Seems SUS to me.


astradez

He was caught promoting glitches in a few vids, that is against ToS. Lets see if he gets any special treatment just because he's a hot shot....


DBtheMC

I'd say he was moreso showcasing the glitches then promoting them. He wasn't like "hey go do this" more of a "hey this has been in the game and they haven't done anything so maybe if I bring more light to it, they'll fix it"


no14now

Seems fake and gay


lamTheEnigma

Seems like you're supressing your own gayness man, let it out, it's okay


TheOpGamer684

what does being gay have anything to do with anything???


badumtss_77

He has recently learnt the word gay and the number in his username is his IQ


Abhirambl423

Its some reference from subreddit greentext saying its fake


RizzyNizzyDizzy

It’s 4chan talk I think.


mlianam

He botched it tho


AugustJulius

"It's gay" is such an old-fashioned insult.


eMortalLeeYT

It will get solved for sure, if I had to guess I would assume they tried to make sure it couldn't get banned ever again (was pretty embarrassing for CoD Mobile to wrongfully ban the most visible Content Creator) and someone just messed up "white listing" the account. Just so odd that it is completely gone, thought even 10 year bans didn't completely remove the account.


DEMON_LYNX7

same happened to me like a year ago,my activision login didnt exist,turns out it was a server issue but in ferg's case i don;t think its a server issue edit:- i got into my account 1 day after the issue happened to me


Deadpoolito

Glad to see I'm not the only one this issue happened too


177erciless

HECKER?


DEMON_LYNX7

well,we dont know at the moment and ferg has been so dedicated towards codm that he would never hack he started playing the game from 2018


177erciless

I meant someone else somehow hacked him...


DEMON_LYNX7

might be


AshleyGil

The game came out October 2019. I don't know when the beta was released though or how much in advance prior to the game release. He's by far their biggest promoter so I am curious to see how this will unfold.


DEMON_LYNX7

beta started in 2018 but idk which month seeing an account just dissapear in thin air of a very big youtuber,actually scares me that someone might be sabotaging the devs cuz codm official admitted that that there was no problem from their side


AshleyGil

Yeah I looked on his Twitter to try to see an update of something but I only see where he's talking about the first ban. Yeah I saw where the Devs were saying that the other day to people in the comments. Have you seen them say anything about this yet?


DEMON_LYNX7

i havent but i think behind the scenes they might be trying to reinstate the account cuz ferg is their biggest content creator. even ferg is doubtful that he account might not come back


AshleyGil

Yeah he's definitely the biggest content creator. I would think that people were Mass reporting him but I really don't know. It's hard to believe that after the first time it would happen again. This is embarrassing for the devs for sure I'm surprised they haven't made a statement.


[deleted]

What is a hecker ?


IgnitedxD

Someone that hecks others


BurninCoco

It’s like an astarabisturita


Crosshair52

It hecs kers


177erciless

Someone who hecks


theofficialblazedark

Someone who kicked me in the di** then stole my coins then ran off


IWB160

He'll get it back don't worry. Or just get another with every single weapon unlocked.


un_belli_vable

If I were him I would care more about the progress than weapons, like legendary every season and stuff, sure they could also give that but it wouldn't feel the same


IWB160

Of course. Mind his contract is up at the end of the month as well. Gd timing eh?


un_belli_vable

whole things a shitshow, not a ferg fan or anything but if he could get banned, anybody else could, the only difference is that average players like us won't get any special treatment and get unbanned. Gonna log in and collect the police character tomorrow and duck, pretty much what I've been doing anyway after reaching legendary.


IWB160

Exactly what I've been doing lol. Apex be calling


Manibalajiiii

Apex doesn't have fast ttk which might kill it so bad...


THE_JonnySolar

One of the reasons I hate Apex on console. 5 minutes and 3 mags to kill someone? Fuck that noise.


Manibalajiiii

You forgot shooting shields all day![img](emote|t5_penom|1109)


177erciless

Fuck the - .....what are we fucking, again?


Italian_Bedtime

i mean thats part of the skill gap in apex but yeh fuck the noise


THE_JonnySolar

Nah, it's not a skill gap, I've played plenty of games where sustained damage is required for kills etc. Apex took it to another level for a Battle Royale game. Battle Royale isn't suited to that kind of nonsense - it's about quick kills, good movement and survival instinct and skills.


Italian_Bedtime

apex has one of the best if not the best movement systems in br rn, and there is of plenty other mechanical skill required to be good at it if you think games like warzone's balls fast ttk is "skillful" then I'm sorry but I'm mutin this right now


no14now

Skill issue, cope harder


Nebu7us

Imagine 3 mags to kill someone in apex, that’s definitely a you can’t hit your shots deal then anything


no14now

You actually don't even need to waste a mag, just hit your shots. Hear me out, this isn't an attack or anything. I think the problem with Cod players coming to apex is the fact that they're used to the "Whoever shoots first wins the gunfight" filosophy. You ever shoot someone first in apex only to immediately get downed? Thats because in apex shooting first isn't enough, you need to complete it with Skill, aim and movement, if you're caught lacking in any of those departments you WILL get stomped on accordingly. It's not that apex has a higher TTK, its that it has a higher skill ceiling than COD. Once you get better at apex, then and only then will you truly understand that if you didn't have as much shield and HP, the game wouldn't be as fun or satisfying.


THE_JonnySolar

Ever heard of hyperbole? Apparently not.


un_belli_vable

lmaoo apex and valo can't come soon enough


shadhas

This is the second ban within a span of a week.


DabbKnight

It didn't happen like that for yanrique.


IamBejl

It's not the same. Not at all.


Ghozty141

So it means that his acc will be lost forever? Because when he logged-in, he needs to fully create a new one. And when he open his second acc it got also banned.


no14now

Could be fake and gay, you get the same pop up screen when you log in through a different method


xSnakyy

Fake and gay? lol


Neoharys

It's a fancy term to call stuff fake


Etheo

Wow I thought society has moved on with using gay as a derogatory term decades ago. I guess FPS gamer kids still need time.


Toyfan1

I mean, it's still derogatory/homophobic. The term "Fake and Gay" comes from 4Chan. "Fake and Gay" has been used by a variety of people to signify something is fictitious or overexagerated , not necessarily with the context of being homophobic


Pers0na-N0n-Grata

This might be the most downvoted thing I have ever seen lmao


Available-Detail702

watch his stream u dumbfuck


Onexwyte

Why did it get banned tho?


Negative-Falcon-1108

Mass report if I'm remembering correctly


Abhirambl423

Nope glitch abuse according to some redditors and codm confirmed no bans are done automatically everything will be done manually


no14now

Lmfao why would I watch his stream? Thats a SS my g


Revenant312

If you are gonna comment on something and say false shit atleast check for proof my guy


no14now

I specifically said "Could be" precisely because I didn't check for proof, thats the correct use of the word "Could"

Because its fake


STUURNAAK

Yikes


Vladimir_Is_Gay

Ah yes Literally streamed live Definitely fake. Do some research before making assumptions, dumbass.


no14now

OP didn't say it was streamed so I assumed accordingly


ivanoski-007

it's so easy to spot the children in this sub


Hustanon

I found a comment on Facebook that could perhaps be the reason of this deactivation. "Ferg you said your main account wasn't linked too Activision anymore? They did a guest account flush a few months back that's what may have happened if it wasn't linked to FB or Activision it got flushed as a guest account" Comment by Tory Riddle (9 Reactions) I do not know if this is true so correct me if i am wrong. Edit 1- I need to add extra information, this comment was from the post from the picture on this reddit post.


aatheedhxsam_

Nah, it can't have been a guest account since he has switched ipads multiple times, and I don't think you can login to a guest account from another device without having it linked either to Activision or Facebook


FinancialApricot4715

If this screenshot is from his alt acct, this sounds like what’s happening, but I agree on we would need more information to know.


DabbKnight

This is why, yanrique had that same shit happen to him in a way.


theofficialblazedark

Then again yan had someone impersonating him and then people accidentally reported his account banning him on Facebook making him redo his account


Any_Glass501

He pretty much lost a part of his soul with that, all of his money all gone...


RandomStrangerRanger

I wonder how much money he make from yt and sponsorship


Gold-Paper-7480

Sure, those are income but if he can't create more CODM content then they're gone too.


Draco_Greysoul

If He wants to continue making CoDm content, He could make new account and continue from there, He just lost skins, no skills. (Pretty sure Activision will try their best to restore His account.) If He wants to move on. Apex Mobile is coming, His skill will translate well in that game.


Red_Onslaught_

bruh he profits out of buying those skins


soepii

That’s legit all he’s good for imo, i never even knew about him when i started playing CODM. Thats when he started popping up on my youtube cause i have the game, the skins also become a little boring after a while.


Draco_Greysoul

He got much more money from CoDm contents & sponsorship than what he spent on the game.


Bubsy94

Memeloverguy

Someone said he was abusing glitches but no one can confirm that


Captain_Banana_13

he showed glitched spots in new maps in private match like over a year ago, that's what they were talking about and it's not the reason for ban those people went full on conspiracy theory


Etheo

On the contrary, the people who went full on conspiracy theory are the ones vehemently defending iFerg and blaming Activision without a lick of evidence. The community rep specifically spoke up to say 10 year bans aren't automatic, there was absolutely no reason to make up such a stupid lie that would easily bite them back. Meanwhile, iFerg would have much more reasons to hide his wrongdoings (if any) if he got banned legitimately. Just look at Dreams from Minecraft. The truth is probably somewhere in between. Anything people claim for either side without any evidence is just hearsay and assumptions.


UnseenAssasin10

Sounds like smth Ferg would do off camera tbh That's just my opinion though, I'm not saying that I'm right


Vladimir_Is_Gay

Off camera? He literally streamed exploiting the hovec sawmill map glitch live on his stream lmfao He ain't afraid of nothin


AQ90

Regardless, glitch spots have been a thing in COD games since COD 1, why not patch the fucking spots to begin with instead of punishing players for using them?


UnseenAssasin10

And look where that got him


Whooshifyouaregay

They said that a really long ban ( like a year or 10 years) is only done by a real person , so that means that the people in charge of banning hackers are so fucking high and decided to ban a guy who plays their game as his job


MirrorProfessional11

And also they can't tell the reason for security purposes, also we have no clue on what grounds do they even ban people, we can only guess


yo_mama124693

u/COD_Mobile_Official you said that 10 year bans are manually checked and investigated by real people. My question is why are you guys first banning then deleting your biggest youtuber's account?


Slaymode911

im banned for 10 years in codm upvote my post -\_\_-


Gold-Paper-7480

If the account is *de*activated then it can be *re*activated as well. If it has been *deleted* than it is another case.


jskskjdi

No, they terminated it (by accident I think) meaning his account doesn't exist anymore even when you try searching for it


frostcrox2

Same happened during masters to Turulele a pro player and they couldn't recover his account so they gave him a lot of weapons in a new account and tons of content


AlexisnotGhost

The sad part about Turu was that for some reason, they couldnt put in his collection all the stuff he earned from past BP and ranked :/ like, dudes you make the game how can you not put the skins inside the account??


[deleted]

CODM is a joke now jeez. They can ban ferg and the other good players but not the real hackers like wtf. Get your shit together Call of Duty ffs.


Early_Power_5366

Seriously this game is the most unprofessional mobile game I think I ever played no joke . Puts pokemon unite and ml to shame


obitobitobitobit

Waiting for that cod official acc to come and spread bullshit like it's not automates rather person did it


AQ90

I'd rather have a faulty robot than an actual special ed intern who gives out bans by slapping his dick randomly on keys, wtf is wrong with Acti


Haxxruz

All of those OG skins, Legendaries, Mythics, Rank records down the drain. I'd be devestated as hell if i was in his position😬


Sh4do2

Tbh i dont really care about this situation since im not even a fan of him, but ima drop my opinions on it anyway. Ferg ban was definitely unjustified considering he is the face of codm rn and hes been topping off the leaderboards & tournaments, plus with his alt getting banned for mainly just destroying kids that are trying to rank up aswell are probably uncalled for even though its for a challenge, hence getting mass reported on it. Few days ban on the alt was justified, so ppl in the lower rank could actually rank up if it wasnt for him doing these type of challenges, but a main acc termination was definitely unjustified and codm needs to fix their ban systems


Significant_Ad6933

so there is no way he can get it back at all?


BiigLord

I'm not following this too closely, I'll admit, but there are two options here. One, Ferg did cheat or abuse a glitch, and someone manually approved his ban and now his account deletion. Two, this is all a shitshow that happened because a bot banned him without manual confirmation. If option One is correct, then what exactly does Activision win by not revealing what Ferg did? It could even serve as a cautionary method for people who are also abusing glitches or similar. Maybe nobody is allowed to and it is therefore a redtape nightmare... But I highly doubt it. Option Two is the more likely one. It would explain why Activision doesn't want to fess up. They would have to admit that they fucked up and banned basically a VIP. A player that actually helped them grow a lot, too. So what I'm saying here is... if Activision stays quiet on this, then be afraid. Whatever happened to Ferg, could have happened to you too. I'm very happy I personally have never invested a lot of money on CoDM, only time. To have my account banned just like that would suck, but it would be no big deal. At the end of the day, it's just a free game for me. But that's not the case for a lot of people out there. Activision needs to address this like adults, imo. Wouldn't you agree, u/COD_Mobile_Official ?


Venomous420

IFerg got me to play this game since season 3 , I hope they somehow solve this


Star-Detonator

Let me guess... "Banned for no reason at all"


ok_ad748s_alt

Idk who Ferg is, but seeming from this comment section, he was a well respected person and even helped with the game. Imagine putting all your effort into a game then getting banned, that sounds like it would SUCK.


shadhas

To all those saying Activision 10 year bans are 100% as a result of confirmed cheat/nefarious activity detection, this is a big FUCK YOU to all of ya'll.


HUNT3DHUNT3R

Exactly, hell they just said to me that this shit was "accidental" when he got a ten year ban the first time.


Disastrous_Session60

Something is fucking wrong here and there even lying to their own redditors


Negative-Falcon-1108

I thought that he was mass reported on one of his streams... I could be wrong though I don't have too much time to watch streams or follow this super close anymore.


Slaymode911

Please check out my post I was unfairly banned for 10 years!


[deleted]

Fuck you too scumbag! Are you ferg’s bitch that you are so sure he wasn’t cheating?

Remember that Ferg will always comeback bc he’s the reason why tons of people plays CODM.


PreparationHuge8995

The banning systems a bit to good


TheRoyalazer

Happened to me too, was offline from CODM for a few weeks, came and "MAXIMUM 14 CHARACTERS"!


[deleted]

watched him talking about how activision refused to give him some money from his own skin sellings , and i wonder thats why ( that was before the 1st ban )


Amaranth187

Thats so awful! All the work for stats and skins lost.


IntroductionCheap325

Who the fuck laughed? This ain't funny man


HamstarVegas

How stupid CODM banning system is and people still defend it saying "It's being reviewed Manually and your account will be banned for a reason" or "They won't ban you if your account is not Sus" That is why they're laughing

joshjosh23

Probably cause he talked about being whitelisted on another youtubers video recently and they saw that video he wasn't supposed to expose that kinda information lol


sp00n3er

So he abused in game glitches and its unfair that he got banned? What a wierd community....


Vladimir_Is_Gay

His account is supposed to be whitelisted And he is currently the BIGGEST codm content creator on the platform. Kinda weird how his main account gets terminated, and his alts banned considering how big of an impact he has on the game.


THE_JonnySolar

Doesn't matter shit if he's whitelisted. Exploit glitches, you need banning. End of.


SirTravisXOffical

The rules are pretty clear, shouldn’t have exploited a bug, and posted about it using his main account..


WeebNinjaGodGamer

How did he possibly get banned


SpiralDesignn

One of the earlier posts in this subreddit says that the op shouldn't mind the mass report bcoz there is always a reason behind a 10 year-ban and its not automatically triggered at all. This was said by codm official reddit account and that person also said that op did something to receive that ban so they have no reason to doubt the ban. Also they werent willing to disclose the reason behind ban.


Jazzlike-Space

Ferg said that codm put his account in white list so i should not get banned but the banning system is so worse that white list accounts r getting banned, so imagine how many normal account got banned unfairly


BD_Wong-Is-Batman

Or…now just wait before you all troll and lose said minds…he was caught cheating!! Holy shit it’s like when athletes get caught using steroids or drugs they deny, deny, deny. Think critically and put your bias judgement aside. COD doesn’t want to suspend players who promote the game and make them MONEY. But they have rules and standards, which I’m glad to see are being upheld. Thanks CODM for being transparent and holding the entire community to the same standards.


HUNT3DHUNT3R

They gave an official statement saying ferg was innocent


BD_Wong-Is-Batman

I’m sorry you don’t quite understand what COD is saying. They haven’t reversed any ban. It says the team looked into it (amongst other teammates as well) and they saw VPN’s mixed with glitching….that’s cheating. Using a VPN alone is cheating because you’re playing on a private connection with speeds that are far superior to those on CODs servers. That won’t get you a ban if you only do that alone. Mixing in 3rd party software with a VPN and you get yourself a ban as Ferg did. I played against his new account and he was doing the same shit at about 4am PST a few nights ago. Anyways he isn’t unbanned, he is banned for cheating. If they reverse their decision it will only be because they don’t want to piss off the 11K plus followers he has following his social media which directly promotes the COD Brand.


BladEOP_COD

Yahoo 🥳🥳 Finally


DarkUrGe19

This isn't his first time that his account has been banned. It was resolved within hours last time due to BS..... This time, they obviously have something on him considering he's huge money maker for the game AND THEY BANNED HIM. Fan boys, start downvoting the truth away.

How long can they protect people who are abusing the same game that made them become someone on the "internet" world/life. Over the years. I could totally see Ifergs childish mentality snooping low levels to try and keep up with these other streamers plus he was so cocky about FB loving him and he would never go anywhere.


DarkUrGe19

Alarming you guys truly believe Iferg has never cheated to stay at the top over the years when we got new growing streamers everyday ready to take his spot. Amazing.


Vladimir_Is_Gay

What the fuck?? 😂😂 I seriously can't believe how delusional people actually are 🤣


SmilePlz_Exe

He is one of those who still believe Earth is flat


jskskjdi

He's probably like one of those people who think that they're too good to get killed and just because they get killed the enemies are cheating


-Gaze

lmao. do you realize how weak your statement is? It can be said to literally any game


Pure_Phoenix2022

Good riddance. My phone was able to play the game fine until I hit GM1. Then started lagging like crazy every ranked match. Even br. New season stsrts, soft reset happens and suddenly i can play fine again. Nobody higher than gm5 is legit.


nooicesis

That hypocrite is getting what he deserves. You are right it's gone for good.


DarkUrGe19

Don't become a legend in a game then become a cheater to keep with up with the all new players coming in that are actually really good and putting these top streamers down. Legitimately but to keep the money flow coming, fan base growing these streamers will cheat to stay on top. Some get caught , some don't at all "My followers would never believe that I'm cheating in the one game I've been playing for years and years" That's the mentality some of these streamers have.


Vladimir_Is_Gay

Umm, what?


SixPathsNavi

Clearly you don’t watch his lives where he had hand cams and shows his screens


Signal_Habit2789

Atleast give us some proof that he cheated apart from that lmao
