Mine got lifted a week ago. I think its due to mass reporting, playing on controller you wont get banned as easy.

I said that if i get shadowbanned twice falsely ill leave the game permanently, and its already been one false shadow ban

I've been Shadow Banned countless times over the last 4 CODS and there's really nothing you can do.

They can range from 2 days all the way up to weeks as my longest SB was 3 weeks.

Took me 7 days then you back, nothing you can do about it, it is what it is.

As I understand you all, I have already been in SB for 14 days

This game contains no shadowbans.

It has ‘limited matchmaking’ which can be checked on their site by logging in.

shadowbans are literally something else by definition, and its wild to me that people on this forum wilfully use the wrong term for their limited matchmaking situation.

Why is this what you're dedicating your life to. I've seen you here for the last month constantly fighting tooth and nail so people will call it limited matchmaking. Why do you care so much?

People call spawntrapping spawntrapping. If the devs gave it the official name of "basecamping" would you obsessively correct everyone when they called it spawncamping? People make their own words for things. The community name has become shadowbanning, so that's what it will be called. The literal definition is something else, but that doesn't matter. Farming has its own dictionary definition, but people use it as a specific term in games as well. People have decided to call limited matchmaking shadowbanning. Why does this matter to you at all?

verb: shadowban
block (a user) from a social media site or online forum without their knowledge, typically by making their posts and comments no longer visible to other users.

Officially it is called Limited Matchmaking. But it is a shadowban. Apart from sometimes high pings and long search times for a new match, there is no indication of the ban in the game. It's a classic shadowban. As you wrote, you have to go to an external site to find out about your shadowban.
