For Those Banned (New Phone?)

For those who think they were banned incorrectly did you recently get a new phone and transfer apps instead of redownloading?
I think that could be a glitch in their new algorithm.

    They are asking if (when you got a new phone) did you use the Android/Apple method (or Transfer App Wizard style) for automatically having your selected Apps (and Pics, Data, etc) transferred from your old device to your new one.

    That probably preserves all the App Data on your device (copies it onto new device), and may contain info that was specific to your old device, which they could maybe tell somehow didn’t match what the game's saved data would be on your new device.
    (don't know if that is what is catching some people, but that is what OP is asking people about)

    As opposed to just getting a new device, and starting from scratch, manually going to App Store to fetch all the Apps you had on your old device. And having to set them all up again.

    Was in the process of transferring my data to new phone at the exact time when they pushed out this algorithm. And no I am not banned.

    No, I had my phone for over a year now. I used the official Google Play App store and update it every month when it needs to. I've been doing this for 3 years, and because of this ridiculous ban, I got banned too. Sooooo

    No. Transferring data is fine

    A year ago ( roughly) I upgraded my phone and transferred everything via android backup. Never had any issues with mcoc either. So its perfectly fine to do that.

    Not how it works, even when using the strictest MDM environments for transferring phone profiles.

    Some of your friends are grasping at straws rather than admitting that they either knowingly or unknowingly broke the TOS. Breaking it on accident is still punishable.
