Playfire updated for me today and so did GMG instantly so hopefully this trend keeps up.  I already have $18 in rewards, hoping to climb to $30.  Rush Bros and SSZ should help me get there. 

 
Just to satisfy my curiosity, I submitted a playfire ticket. I was surprised to get a response with 3 hours. I underlined the interesting part.

Hello Bruticis

Having investigated your steam account, based on a report we received from another member, we can see indicators that suggest that you have been using third party software in order to unlock achievements to earn Playfire Rewards.

This is against the spirit of the Rewards Beta Program and it goes against Playfire's T&C and unfortunately we have banned your account as a result.

Bans are not up for review and we will not discuss them.

Kind Regards,
Karl

At least they closed it with a kind regard, so there's that. Just to level the playing field I reported everyone in this thread (better safe than sorry) to Playfire.

What did you submit the ticket for?

Wow, that .gif is at least 10 years old (as if you couldn't tell because of the reference to Limewire). Really brings me back.

I'm glad you decided to indulge me after all. See, that wasn't so bad. Now the mystery's solved, and you can spend the rest of your life tracking down the user who reported you. (Wasn't me, not gonna do volunteer work for Playfire/GMG, maybe if they threw me some free games).

Honestly, it's sort of a joke for them to ban someone after being reported but ignore other obvious signs of people gaming the system.  They should either just let everyone be since they haven't implemented any safeguards or scrutinize everyone equally.

I'm reporting all you pirates and keeping all the playfire rewards for myself (that's how it works, right?)!

Spoken like a true pirate. Always ready to double-cross everyone else to keep all the booty for themselves.

I think it's pretty shitty that someone reported you. I frankly can't believe that they'd ban anyone anyhow as it's laughably easy to manipulate Steam achievements. Since the whole premise of Playfire is based on something as fragile as that, I would think they'd show some goodwill and ignore what likely 80% of the people are doing anyway.

Honestly my bigger concern is that they'd even ban you over a simple report.

Did they actually look into it? What would serve as evidence for that? Or did they just believe whoever reported you?

My guess is that their detective equipment is pretty low-tech or they'd be banning a huge chunk of their users. Most likely the activation of certain achievements and not pre-requisite achievements. I've heard that some are pretty impossible to get or are bugged.

Honestly, what have they got to gain here? By limiting when you can use the GMG credit (i.e. not with certain vouchers) they've effectively turned credit into a choose-your-own coupon. Why not let everyone claim whatever they claim and take a laissez faire approach?

I was honestly surprised they even admitted it was from a member report. You'd think they could at least lie or leave that part out to protect their confidential informants.
