"Pathetic game": Fans react as EA upholds Transfer Market ban against FIFA 23 streamer Danny Aarons even after appeal

sportskeeda.com:

A couple of days ago, FIFA 23 streamer Danny Aarons shared screenshots on his Twitter page saying one of his accounts had been banned from using the Ultimate Team feature, specifically its Transfer Market. EA was under the impression the profile had gone against its rules; this was the cause of the suspension. Even after an appeal by the Twitch streamer, it appears that his account will remain banned from the in-game market.

EA's reply from earlier today — which can be found in the next section of this article — has caused another outrage in the community. Fans criticized the game for what many thought was a false-flag suspension. One Twitter user even wrote that FIFA 23 was a pathetic title, considering Danny Aarons was banned even after spending a lot of real-life money on the game.

Earlier today, Danny shared a screenshot featuring EA's statement. It says that, after another round of investigation, the developers have concluded that he will remain suspended from using the Transfer Market for the foreseeable future.

The streamer shared an image of the particular response with the caption, "RIP Bozo." Here is a relevant part of EA's reply, as shared on Danny's social media:

The "note" being referenced in the screenshot was the appeal submitted by Danny Aarons after he was struck with the FIFA 23 ban. The content creator was up in arms on December 26 when he revealed the situation to his followers on Twitter. In-game screenshots that he shared bore an 'Important Notice', which alleged that the account in question was guilty of "FUT coin distribution" and therefore was no longer allowed to use FIFA 23's Transfer Market.

The streamer was adamant that he was innocent, claiming that he'd never bought coins on the specific account
