[HELP] Service Bans

I'm just posting this because I'm curious how often people are currently getting banned for services on irons?

I've seen a LOT of this recently. I know some service providers take precautions, but I'm just wondering how likely a ban is. (I do know there is always a chance of a ban, I'm wondering how high that chance is right now).

im not sure, im having services done in my main via parsec hoping to lower the chances of ban

 

There are so many factors that go into this. Truthfully, there's no real way to answer your question aside from "yeah, IM/HCIM bans appear to be increasing."

Logically, I'm sure IM/HCIM services are more heavily scrutinized than regular accounts are. With that said, I think you drastically reduce your chances of a ban if you take the same precautions as someone would do with a regular account if they were careful.

IE - vet the service provider, make sure they aren't on a shared VPN/IP, ensure their location is within the same country/area as your IP, ensure they have lots of vouches/rep to hedge against botting, ask to speak to the specific worker on the account, ask if they're going to allow multiple workers on the account, and don't have them do something that's already highly detectable like infernal, etc.

 

Appreciate all the feedback. It seems like the safest bet would be to have them play via something like Parsec, although I imagine that may be somewhat annoying for the service provider.

Thanks all!
