# How To Avoid Bans in EFT

**Follow these tips to keep your account safe:**

***Moderate Your Stats***: Balance your headshot %, PMC/Scav kills, and K/D ratio.

**Limit PMC Kills**: No more than 10 PMC kills per hour. High velocity of reports => Very fast ban

**Minimize Reports**: Avoid gameplay that could lead to being reported.

**Play Time Matters**: Accounts with higher play hours are less likely to be banned.

**EOD/Unheard Accounts**: EOD /Unheard Edition accounts generally have a lower chance to get reported.

Usage of Risky Functions: Risky functions which may trigger tripwires on EFT's server-side may cause you to be flagged for a ban.\*
