Hi all, I've been encountering an issue lately with Skylords Reborn where it freezes my entire PC when it goes to sleep while Skylords Reborn is still running. I'll try to explain in detail below: What exactly happens/ description: My Windows is set to go to sleep automatically after some time of inactivity (30 mins). Last night I had launched the game and was doing some things in the AH and the forge, but had to go AFK for a bit. During this time Windows had gone to sleep automatically. When I woke the PC from sleep, Windows seemed to be unresponsive entirely (therefore I have not been able to screenshot/record it). The screen went completely black, except for the taskbar. My mouse can also still move around, but it does not respond when I try to click something. I tried to push various buttons to escape the frozen state (Windows button, Windows + D to get to desktop, Ctrl + Alt + Del, Ctrl + Shift + Esc), but none seem to work. It looks similar to when Explorer.exe is not responding. Usually, I restart my PC at this point by holding the on/off-button, but I had some work open in the background that I did not want to lose, so I decided to wait it out. After about 10 mins the Task Manager window finally popped up from pressing Ctrl + Shift + Esc, where it showed that Battleforge was not responding. However, at this point the PC was still not responding as a whole. After about 15 mins in total my PC started to respond normally again and I was able to shut down Battleforge through the task manager. I restarted the game and everything worked fine again. When does it happen/ reproducibility: 100% of the times when Windows goes to sleep automatically and Battleforge is running. It does not seem to matter what I was doing, whether I was in the forge or AH. I have not tried yet if going to sleep manually causes the same effect. I've encountered the problem quite some times now over a longer period of time and I try to prevent the situation by closing Battleforge when going AFK, but sometimes I forget. Log file: _log_proxy_0.log Additional information: I have no idea what exactly causes the issue, but I have a suspicion that the problem lies on my side, as I have not heard anyone else talking about it. Perhaps some graphic driver issue or something? The issue itself is not game-breaking for me so there is no urgency, but it just gets a little annoying when you have work left open on the background and your whole PC freezes. Thanks in advance for your time and efforts!

If you're able to, you could try to connect to another server using your VPN. Otherwise, you may be able to contact one of the mods through the Discord channel. Honestly, I am not sure whether this is the right place to ask this question. I'm only here because I noticed your post and had a sudden, similar issue. I've got a feeling that it is a technical problem, as I am pretty sure that I did nothing against the rules in my case and the problem only occurred as I tried to log on the other day. Would seem odd to me to ban people while they're offline without any warning or details as of why they're banned. I noticed that the anticheat system was updated some days ago, so maybe it has to do with that? Anyways, if you don't get any response or workable solution on here, I think your best bet is directly contacting a mod or admin. I'm probably going to do so as well, as I don't always want to rely on my VPN connection to play the game. EDIT: Just posted a message on the Discord channel and it seems that more people are experiencing this problem. From what I was told, the mods are already aware of the problem and currently looking further into it. I guess the best you can do is let them know you were affected too and wait it out.

I had the same problem today, even though I have been playing for months and never had the issue. Apparently the host server I was connected to from my internet provider had changed and the IP connected to it was banned (idk why, as far as I know this has nothing to do with me). Solved the problem by using a VPN, so maybe you could give that a try.
