Lost Ark dev Smilegate is working on bringing back all those real accounts it accidentally banned
Lost Ark developer Smilegate recently banned a wave of bots to prevent cheating, but a number of real players have found they were banned too.
Bot bans obviously aren't uncommon in any online game, particularly MMOs which can have huge playerbases. Smilegate recently put a ban wave into effect on Steam, getting rid of a large number of bots, but it also seems real players were caught up in the crossfire.
The ban appears to have mostly affected players that haven't logged in in a number of months, or those that have a small playtime. While a ban might not really matter to the player that isn't too invested in the game, bans do matter for your overall Steam account. Recent reviews on the game's Steam page are mostly negative at the time of writing as a result of the recent ban.
