Apr 05,25

In an inspiring tale of perseverance, a player known as b00lin spent 763 days fighting to overturn a ban issued by Activision and restore their reputation on Steam. b00lin detailed their entire journey in a compelling blog post, shedding light on the challenges they faced and the ultimate victory they achieved.

The ordeal began after b00lin played over 36 hours of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 beta in December 2023. Initially, they thought the ban might be due to errors during the testing phase. However, Activision upheld the ban despite b00lin's efforts to report the issue. While most players might have given up at this point, b00lin was determined to fight back and clear their name.

Activision refused to provide any evidence of the alleged cheating, citing security concerns. b00lin only requested "harmless" information, such as the name of the software being flagged, but the company remained tight-lipped. The case eventually went to court, where it was revealed that Activision's lawyers had no actual proof of wrongdoing. It became clear that the company takes anti-cheat secrecy extremely seriously.

In the end, the court ruled in favor of b00lin, ordering Activision to cover their legal fees and lift the ban. This victory finally came in early 2025, marking a significant moment for b00lin and setting a precedent for other players facing similar issues.
