Ban appeal for legitimate player (Scalle01) - help please!
This concerns the ban of a fellow players account, nickname Scalle01.
His account has been banned for no reason whatsoever, without any warning. He is known in the community, he is fair, polite, honest and 200% legit. I can not imagine anything wrong with his account, or the way he plays and/or treats fellow agents, on the contrary, he is a rolemodel for many of us.
Since he can no longer access the forum, I will post his request for help in this matter, and I sincerely hope the community will back him up in this matter:
"Hello everyone, may I have your attention for a brief moment. 10 days ago I suddenly could not log into my scanner. Acces denied it said. Intel, forum or Wayfarer aren't accessible either. After I contacted the support I received an email with the information my account was terminated. I honestly don't have a clue what they are accusing me of. I don't spoof, only have one account, didn't bought any items online, did not participate in wintrading. I have submitted several ban appeals. Those are closed and the decision is permanent.
If you know me or if we ever played together I would like to ask you to write any references or testimonials if possible. I'll gather those and will contact NIA personally. You can PM me or ask my email.
Thank you for your time and hopefully we will play again soon."

I can't understand the ban decision.
Scalle01 is a good agent and player. He took part to several events and anomalies with our WoB community and it was always a pleasure playing with him and AzraeL0104.
I don't believe he's been cheating either, not his style. Not at all. He does not need that to be efficient on the field.
Please Nia, re-evaluate this case, thanks...

Hi,
I only know Scalle of several OP's and that is including a x-faction starburst to remember a fallen resistance agent
I cannot believe that he cheats and he is community minded, we should have more agents like that
So please recheck this NIA

For me this comes as a shock and is totally unexpected...
I've met scalle01 on several occasions, from anomalies over helping hand in the orga of a First Saturday and of course in the field to take down RES fields and make big **** fields ourselves. All of this in a good manner and with loads of fun and joy. In my opinion agents from the other faction can 't deny the fact he 's friendly, kind and respectful. The times we've met in person, he 's always in the good companion of AzraeL0104 and I can only say he 's not at all in the cheating business!
I hope to see you active again soon agent Scalle01!

have to agree on the above comments!
@NianticBrian please make a review of his case

I've met the player on multiple fs'es and worked with him on several ops. I would be very surprised if he was actually doing something wrong.
Please investigate the account because i'm sure he hasn't been cheating.
I can not believe Scalle cheats, we played together on numerous occasions, and never saw something suspicious.... please restore the account of our friend and fellow WoB.

So please recheck this NIA

Scalle01 is probably one of the most honest person I met, he and Azrael0104 are wonderful agents who are always available and willing to help. I spent a lot of time with them (anomalies, FS, OP's, Hexathlon) and be sure Scalle is not a cheater ! He's a well known part of our community and appreciated by many !
@NianticBrian & @NianticCasey please have a look at this as something went wrong with your detection algorithm...
This is not fair NIA,... this agent is far the most legit player i've met...
Please revieuw his and our request so he can play Again...
I agree 100% agree with the above comments. There must be a mistake that happened that caused the ban. I also ask NIA to reinstate his account.
The same here

Scalle01 plays sometimes in my neighborhood, I never had a problem with him, Scalle01 always had a clean and clear style of play. No player from our faction has had a problem with him. I hope he gets his account back. Some time ago, Sebcho85, a Brussels resistance player, had the same sad ban problem. I hope the two of you can get your accounts back.

I was contacted by this player Scally personally about this. We play in the same regio but appossite faction.
Why do I speak for somebody of the other faction? Because we may be enemies in game but friends in RL. And how can we play withoit the other faction.
Can we at least get a reason why Scalle his account has been banned?

I can only confirm all the above messages. He is a very helpfull person, both ingame and IRL/professionally. A rolemodel for many of us. This ban frightens me because it could happen to any of us without any explanation or cause. I can only think of a faulty algorithm or some kind of game mechanics that isn't working properly.
Please review this ban and reinstate his account please. It would be a terrible loss for our community and soooo unfair. We can't let this happen. All players (x-faction) who know him will agree on this one.
I met Scalle01 during the Antwerp anomaly and witnessed how he helped the enlightened to claim victory through normal play.
Fully supporting the above requests to reinstate the account.

Scalle01 is a respected and honest member of our community. We participated in starburst for a deceased RES agent. Please investigate the case thorougly and reinstate his account.

@Scalle01 is a very honest agent and respected on both ENL and RES faction for his fairplay and plays with a no cheat mentality. Banning him is unreal for me.
Please review this ban and reinstate his account.
This player is legit. He regularly participates in all events, operations (he even participated in the last French national op)
His ban isn't legit
Ce joueur est légitime je l'ai déjà rencontré à plusieurs événements d'ingress et autre opération il a même fait le déplacement depuis la Belgique pour participer à l'op hamal 2.0 il est plus que légitime. La suppression de son compte n'est pas légitime ce joueur est un exemple dans la communauté.
Although I don't know scalle01 personally. Is he a well-known person in the community. never have I heard any complaints about him either from the res or from the enlighted side. please restore his account because he certainly doesn't deserve this.

The same thing happened with JASOEDA, a local player on IOS. 🤨
He has been totally banned since October 29 - without any reason at all. He does not use special apps, he only has one account and is the only player in his family.
He is a 100% honest guy 👍🏻👍👍🏻 and there is no doubt that he played fairly. He made an appeal but has not heard anything yet.
@NianticBrian & @NianticCasey can you please look into Scalle01's case and Jasoeda's case fast?
We're losing awesome, generous players to stupid errors. Fixing these random bans really is important for the community spirit. 😉
And our belief that Niantic values justice and righteousness.
PS It is great to see RES and ENL working together to correct the unfairness :).

Fellow Agents,
Your contributions, messages, posts are heartwarming. The fact that I can comment in this thread means that my account has been reactivated. I've received a mail which states they reviewed my account. I contacted the community management team with a link to this thread. I firmly believe all of your messages did matter and I can not thank all of you enough for the support and the way you took your stand. As mentioned, the way how this community unites when necessary is an example! If all these lockdowns and pandemic measures are over we'll meet again in person!
@AzraeL0104, thank you for your support. Thank you for listening when I was frustrated. Thank you for your post. Thank you for everything.
Agents, I will see you soon!
Thank you. Bedankt. Merci.
💙❤️💚
It seems that you are very sad and are in court, this banned agent can appeal on a form that appears in the email saying that your account has been closed.
