。 Your previous online play session didn't end naturally, which is PREEEEETTY suspicious. If this keeps happening, we're gonna have to block you from playing online for a while. Make sure your internet isn't busted and try again.。 The warning of being banned is still there, but the approach and tone of the message really takes the edge off. 。 The ban exists because some players, whether intentionally or unintentionally, disconnect from online matches, leaving their team down a player and at a serious disadvantage. To maintain fairness, some games will stop you from playing online if you disconnect too many times.
。 These kinds of bans are typically meant to deter people from rage quitting matches, but it also effects players who just happen to have a poor connection between their console and the game's server. Occasionally, games whose servers are acting up will time out and kick people from matches, causing disconnect-related bans that aren't the player's fault.
。 It's a tricky situation -- and one without much of a solid resolution just yet -- but at least Nintendo's found a way to be cheeky about potentially dismissing even the rule-abiding gamers.。Tweet may have been deleted 。
This was the case for our Twitter user above, who said they were accidentally playing on a wifi connection instead of a wired connection, which caused them to disconnect multiple times. They received the message after the fourth time they disconnected. 。
