The "shadow ban" buzzword that's been making the rounds around the Call of Duty community over the past few years has again been clarified by Activision in a new anti-cheat update today.
Previously, Activision said that players will sometimes be placed into "limited matchmaking," which is an "immediate response" that triggers a separate pool for players whose accounts have been flagged for "suspicious activity," which means the anti-cheat thinks those players may be cheating somehow.
