Stuck in matchmaking
I've been unable to matchmake for about a month now despite my connection to servers and internet working without any problems.

Is it possible I've been perma banned from multiplayer?

What's your level and highest weapon upgrade level?

Shouldn't matter, I think. No matter what save I use, it's the same deal. Stuck on matchmaking.

If you can see bloodstains and messages then you are not banned. When you "press any key" you have a popup. If it starts with "welcome" then you are not banned.

It does matter. Both kind of follow a natural progression. If your weapon upgrade level is too far off from your rune level you won't find anyone and vice versa.
Also, if your level is too high in general you will have trouble finding anyone as well.

edit: typos [/quote I'm on lvl 226 and max lvl weapons are +10. Same on my 155, 175 ect. I used to have no problem on any of these lvls but then it just stopped. I haven't altered the game in any way since. Do you think uninstalling and reinstalling would work?

226 (+max) isn't very active from what I remember. It goes up from 300 again, or so I was told. 155 on the other hand should give you some activity.
Usually, your sign won't show up for other players if you're banned. If you want we can test this by making use of password summons.

I already have tested with passwords though, that's the thing. 226 has been active up until now to my knowledge, as I can't matchmake at all. We can test it one more time though

With passwords? Absolutely. Passwords circumvent matchmaking restrictions.

Alright, pw: juice 12

Send a red or golden sign and I'll summon you in.
