I couldn't summon last night or see any summon signs.
I did mod my guy to max stats and all equipment last night lol
Not sure if it's a ban, but I don't mind really. I only play PVE. Summons and people invading me we're fun though...

It's on a number of websites both PC and consoles. An increasing number of people think they got banned. Steam had problems but no info on the console servers. Perhaps some changes taking place? Otherwise, it's PvE time if they ban edited saves.

Im fairly sure they didn't or at least not a mass ban wave currently, my save is edited and me and my friend were playing last night til about 6am. Could be the users network errors and they think they are banned or maybe the DS2 servers are going haywire who knows. I play on 360 so it may be different for other platforms.
As I said in my previous post, if people would read it fully, the way you can tell you've been SoftBanned is when you can connect to online, see bloodstains, other players' phantoms, etc., but you cannot see summon signs at all, and when you lay your sign down, you won't be summoned no matter how long you let it sit. From's server team are the only ones who can issue a notification about you being banned, but they rarely do so, and prefer to just ban people outright. If you claim it's my NAT type, I have an open NAT, with a Syslink WRT 1900AC Dual-Band router, Prioritization for Xbox Live (since that's what I play on) and my Xbox. Never had any problems with the online until last night. I was in a private chat with my friend who was getting invaded all over and could summon tons of people int he exact same spot as me, in the same SM range. SoulBanning is real guys.

I never said it WAS your NAT type i said it could be. And the possibility in going against the EULA in any game banning is a real possibility. Just thought it might be a better idea to find out for sure if you are banned or if there is just network or server problems. Why jump to conclusions? I have my save modified and i am still able to interact online.

i also am having the same problem, cant see any signs, cant invade nor be invaded.... i see bloodsteins and phantoms and messeges but thats it. it feels like i am banned too but yet no notification. in the past i received a soft ban for dashboarding from pvp but they did let me know and told me to use bone of order to fix it... it worked but now well... no notification an am just stuck not knowing if banned or not. :(

From what I read they are having some problems with servers or something.
A lot of people think they are banned currently but probably aren't. Some say it works then stops working then starts again. Some say it doesn't work at all.
I'm on xbox, I can see the bloodstains, people running Around and messages.
When I went to lay down a soap it said failed.
I haven't played since last night though...
I'm sure it's a problem with the game because I'm reading this is effecting a lot of people
But like I said I don't care because I don't pvp. Just wanted to play around a bit since I've already beat the game. Not enough xbox one games out currently....boo

They are banning save editors guys. I had the same problem, and emailed their support, a mass ban wave went out.
