He previously outlined the specific reason in an old thread/post:
So yeh, it's either due to him giving out the Concord codes and then cancelling, or (most likely) the keys he was getting from CDKeys etc were flagged as being obtained through fraudulent means.
So what? They paid for their games. No reason for you to defend Sony for something like this for any fucking reason. It is absolutely not acceptable.
My console is usable. I can save. But I cannot connect and patch games
Have what? Buying vouchers from cdkeys is not illegal. Even if, user don't have to know that
Man, this is worrisome since I've been getting my PSN wallet funds from instant gaming® exclusively for the past 2 years to buy games from the PSN...
Game codes for PSN usually come out of retail packages or are packed in with consoles, so the chances of those being fraudulently obtained are lower unless someone stole physical copies of games to get the codes or stole the codes out of the game or console boxes like GameStop used to do. They once tried to sell me an open PS3 game as new and the online play voucher was missing. They claimed it was lost, but it was probably because the employee who played it redeemed it. They did offer to sell me one, though.
Exactly. I'll either find another hobby or go back to a high end gaming PC, if PlayStation go fully digital.
The thing is unlike GTA, CDKeys directly sources their codes. They either buy them cheaper in Central/Eastern Europe / Middle East or get them from publishers (for games, it currency of course).He previously outlined the specific reason in an old thread/post:

Yeah, and of course this one is even harder to figure out due to language barrier. I do have some games on Japanese PSN, but always felt a bit iffy and started importing physicals back in PS3 days. I do have some DLCs though.
It was mostly PC Engine games as it was my favourite retro console and not many games were released for North America. I even had a Vita TV just for the PC Engine emulation.
Ahh, yeah, that's a good point. And you can't exactly import that. Thankfully between MiSTer and emulation this isn't as big of an issue now days.
Huh, that's interesting and I have been using them with no issues for many years.Nah man, they don't. Not always at least.
I was specifically told that the key that got revoked by Steam was because it was stolen.
They are by far the best and most reliable grey market keystore but they don't ways get their keys through official channels.
It just goes to show what these companies think of their customers: docile consumers who don't think for themselves, and that they will just blindly buy whatever it is they're selling. It's pure gall these companies have to sell licences and then revoke them at the drop of a hat.One thing that makes me skeptical of this thread is he has an old thread on it. Why not just bump the old thread instead of making it appear to be another ban?
As for fuck victim blaming. I do agree with that. No company should be able to remove an entire gaming library based on a single incident. Period. IMO, maximum should be to remove the title/funds in question for account purchases in question and for behavior to remove them from PSN. To lose an entire library that dates back to previous generations is brutal but this is the digital only future many want.
It stays up and they will send u a email saying all subscribed or cards canceled
In defence of the OP I don't think he is making it appear to be another ban, he says in the OP "I had my account permanently suspended in August and have constantly reached out with emails but had not one single reply."One thing that makes me skeptical of this thread is he has an old thread on it. Why not just bump the old thread instead of making it appear to be another ban?

Just to be safe, any game I by digitally and really like, I also purchase a physical copy, if possible, just to always have access to it in case of some weird shit, just like this.
Companies respond to numbers. OP stated he has more than 600 digital games. Calculate roughly the total cost and include it in the email.
