Most people anticipated that Modern Warfare 2 would experience some launch-day difficulties. However, the game is having an inexplicable number of infuriating issues. Most players of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 are dealing with a strange problem that causes account bans for no apparent reason.
Why Was I Banned From Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2?
Players are annoyed by an endless stream of issues ruining their Modern Warfare 2 gameplay experience, despite Infinity Ward’s assurances that they are looking into and correcting numerous issues.
Known in the esports and gaming industry Jake Lucky brought attention to the situation, claiming that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has a fake ban issue. He revealed that hundreds of people had messaged him, including players he trusted.

According to reports, players who submit ban appeals have their requests turned down. Additionally, no specific information concerning the bans has been made available through Activision’s support channels. Players only know they have a lifetime ban because they used “unauthorized software and modification of game data.”
Some players might be cheating. However, the fact that hundreds are being banned and all of their appeals are being rejected right away raises the possibility that the issue is related to technical problems Modern Warfare 2 is experiencing. So, you risk being banned from Modern Warfare 2 if you cheat, use harmful software, or modify game files.

“We are disabling attachment tuning until further notice to investigate crashes for users with 5 attachments tuned,” Infinity Ward tweeted. “If you currently have a tuned attachment equipped, you will need to unequip and reequip it to use your loadout.”
However, it’s impossible to say with certainty what’s happening with these allegedly falsely banned accounts or what might be causing it. All of the technical problems with Modern Warfare 2 are being looked into by Infinity Ward.
