Joined soldier slot on Highlander lobby #974790. About 2 minutes later I see that I got removed from the lobby due to a sudden cooldown ban.

More details

Sadly, clicking "more details" just routes you to the bans section on your profile page. It doesn't provide any more details at all. Is there any obscure reason I suddenly got cooldown banned? I was finishing my soup when I joined the lobby. Perhaps I am not allowed to eat my last few spoons of soup when joining a HL soldier slot? Idk :wacko:

So it looks like this happened:

Lobby leader banned you, Lobby launched, and you get reported for being AFK by the system. The latter should not be happening indeed, thanks for letting us know ;-)

 

I hope by now your cooldown has expired and you're able to have fun again ;-)
