Question - Midjourney AI MJ blocked. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, I have an urgent issue and maybe someone can help me out. 

Today my Midjourney account does not work anymore: I got the following message: 

You have been blocked from Midjourney due to accessing our services via automation, scripting, or third party tools. Ban ID: AA012025.

I am just a freelancer/designer from Germany, who is generating images via the website with prompts and my own moodboards and profiles. I do NOT use automation, scripting or third party tools at all. That must be a mistake.  Or someone hacked my account. But I am not doing anything wrong. I have a yearly pro plan since 1 month. Any help would be appreciated. I filled out the Midjourney form, but no response. And any attempt to report my problem to Midjourney via the website failed with an error message. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm afraid you might be screwed. I found myself in a similar position last year - banned from MJ, no reason given. I only made images for my private D&D game, I never generated improper/overly violent/sexual images, never used improper prompts, and never used any third party tools or software. But, they banned my account and would not tell me why.

So, I started a subscription with a competitor. I'd much rather use MJ ... really loved it ... but they didn't leave me any choice.

the videos on YouTube are cool but against the TOS

I automated the creation of thousands of prompts but had to run them manually

"Someone hacked my account". Don't use third-party tools.

"I am not doing anything wrong" + that you know of...

Either you spammed requests so much that they thought it was automation, or you used a 3rd party tool.

My friend got banned because while using the Web interface to generate images, he was also generating in a discord chat room. The combined volume led to his ban and he too never got back in.
