From October 1st to October 31st, Albion Online banned a total of 34,649 accounts for botting, real-money trading (RMT), using cheats or otherwise breaking the Terms of Service.
The figure comes after the second month of the Dragonfire update, a period with far more reports than usual, and is well above the previous months: 20,673 in September, 20,285 in August and 12,213 in July.
What gets you banned
Botting, mouse macros or any automation that plays the game for you.
Buying or selling silver outside the game (RMT). Both sides are banned, even on a first offence.
Using cheat programs or third-party software that gives an unfair advantage, such as radar, scanners or speed hacks.
Trading gear or silver with friends, guild regearing and one-off high-value gifts are not treated as RMT. If you believe a ban is a false positive, contact [email protected].
