In this post, we’ll walk you through a step by step guide on how to submit a ban appeal in order to get unbanned from Rust!
Similarly to DayZ account bans, if you landed a ban in Rust, unless it was a false-positive, it was likely due to:
- using cheats and third party software;
- sharing your account with someone else;
- being toxic or offensive;
- using glitches, bugs or exploits to your advantage.
In terms of the ban reason, all of them have a decent chance at getting overturned, apart from toxicity, if it was pertaining to threats, slurs and such.
Getting Unbanned from Rust
For EAC bans, you need to submit a Rust ban appeal via their EAC Support website. Here’s how to do that.
- Select “Rust” from the game list and authenticate your account;
You can sign up with Steam or just fill in your Player ID.
- Input your email address;
This email will be used for them to get back to you once they have reviewed your case.
- Choose the appropriate reason behind your Rust ban appeal;
If the ban was wrongfully applied, you can select “I didn’t cheat”. If the ban came as a result of an account compromise, you can go with “Other reason”.
- Write your ban appeal;
We’ve got your back on this one! Since 2015, we’ve successfully overturned countless similar situations with our professional and customized unban service designed to help you get unbanned from Rust.
Once you’ve completed the form for your Rust account unban appeal, press the “Submit appeal” button under the form, and your ticket will be sent to their Support!
How to Submit a Rust Developer Ban Appeal
In order to appeal a developer Rust ban, we must first get on Facepunch Studios’ contact form here, which needs to be completed as such:
- input your account’s email address;
- select “Rust” under the “Product” list;
- choose your correct Operating System;
- enter a concise yet accurate Subject, such as “Rust ban appeal”;
- provide your correct SteamID or Steam profile;
- your description of the ban appeal can be the same as the one for EAC.
Once that’s done, simply press the “Submit” button underneath the form, and your appeal will be sent to Facepunch Studios for review.
Now that everything is done, wait until they review your Rust account ban appeal and get back to you with their reply via mail. Also, make sure to check the Spam folder as well! Good luck!
And lastly, here’s a quick FAQ regarding Rust bans:
Yes, albeit not in every situation. The only way of recovering a banned Rust account is by submitting a ban appeal. That said, your account’s history as well as the degree of the offense plays a big part in the appeal process.
This really depends on their Support’s current volume of work. Nonetheless, they shouldn’t take more than 3-4 days to get back to you with an answer. As for the number of tickets, there’s really no way to estimate that, since every case is different from one another, regardless of the ban reason or timing.
Yes, Rust is also VAC-enabled and getting banned from it can also carry a VAC ban. VAC bans in Rust can be triggered by both EAC or Developer bans
Yes. It’s very rare for Rust to issue temporary suspensions, so unless the confirmation email informs you of a temporary restriction, it’s safe to say that the ban is permanent. It can only be removed by appealing it.
With an experience of over 9 years handling bans, we can help you get your Rust ban overturned by crafting customized appeal letters for you, based on your ban reason and case, which you need to send to their Customer Support.

Heya and sorry to hear that happened to you. Yes, they should overturn your ban following a review if they can confirm that the account has been compromised.
Was playing Rust then after 10 minutes got booted off and banned for no reason.
Hello, 7 years ago I played rust, someone stole my account and got me banned on it, I didn’t speak English very well by that time so I couldn’t do anything, right now I want to play rust and it has been around 1751 days from my ban.
Do you think I can do something about it?

Sorry to hear that happened to you. Indeed, having your account compromised as a result of malware can lead to getting it banned.
Hi, I got banned for growth out of nowhere, I didn’t do anything wrong while playing. I requested an unban from EAC and they denied it and didn’t even give me a reason why.
