 After WhatsApp declaring its boundaries and banning anyone who was using apps from third-party vendors, WhatsApp administrators have now turned their sharp eyes to ban anyone who defies their privacy rules. It was a tally of numerous accounts that used third-party applications strongly condemned by the officials of WhatsApp.

They claim that such apps do not consider the privacy of their users although lots of WhatsApp users appreciated and preferred third-party applications to the official WhatsApp. Of course, we all think GB WhatsApp, Fm, and WhatsApp plus had better features to give than the mere send and forward buttons present in the official WhatsApp. The anonymity, flagged posts, anti message deletion, mention them all proved the difference.

The ban is currently ongoing strictly to all those users who did not comply with the earlier warnings they received from WhatsApp immediately after the announcements were made. Imagine I saw someone who was banned 100 years without using WhatsApp. Yes, he/she can decide to change the user contact, but it as well costs you because it’s not the old number you had and therefore there is a huge task of notifying everyone that you changed number. It even becomes harder for those with huge contact lists.

However, some other WhatsApp users still depend on the third-party applications earlier condemned even after passing the announcement. These are advanced applications that come with anti-ban features enabling everyone who was banned before to use WhatsApp again. We don’t know where this will end; the competition is still on although not as stiff as it was before the ban was passed. What is WhatsApp going to do about this anyway, let’s just wait for later announcements?

Whereas as we wait for further actions WhatsApp will take upon the anti-ban features, there are numerous grounds on which your WhatsApp account could get banned. These grounds are termed as a violation of rules and WhatsApp terms. It is already in action. Violation of WhatsApp rules and terms has then been defined as another way possible one could get banned in accordance with the earlier bans WhatsApp defined this year.

This is strict and every WhatsApp user should be aware of such violations. Some we make knowingly, others we haven’t learned about even after these many years we have used WhatsApp. Today in this article, I will describe all possible channels through which you can be banned.

The Four Violations of WhatsApp Rules

ban

  1. Sending too many Messages to unsaved contacts

If you have used WhatsApp for a long time, then I am sure you have ever done this. We all forward message because it’s simpler to send the same message to multiple contacts both saved and unsaved. However, sending a message to a number that you haven’t saved in your contact list is now taken as one of the violations that could cost you the whole WhatsApp account. WhatsApp is saying, to be safe from getting banned, save all contacts you wish to chat with, either through a direct message or mere forwarded WhatsApp messages. Note that!

  1. Being blocked numerous times by other users

Now, this is tricky! WhatsApp is saying that, if your account gets blocked by many WhatsApp accounts in a short period, your account is at risk of being blocked. However, they did not specify either it would be a temporary or permanent ban. And as well the number of time someone should be blocked in order to qualify for a ban. That remains unclear, however.

  1. Creating too many groups

Another violation of WhatsApp rules is if a user creates too many groups which contain members that are not saved in his or her contact book, that account with the administrative authority of all those WhatsApp groups stands a possibility of getting banned in a short while.

  1. Using Fake version of WhatsApp

Right again they mentioned it in the new terms that WhatsApp is implementing. These versions of WhatsApp they are trying to draw to our minds are GB WhatsApp, FM WhatsApp, and WhatsApp Plus. All these are considered being fake or earlier on termed as third-party applications. This warning specifically goes to WhatsApp users still using third-party apps with anti-ban features.
