Explanation

The game keeps flagging me as inactive even though I am actively participating in the game. I am always working on generators, unhooking, healing, etc. I keep getting the 5 and 15 minute bans. This has happened multiple times over different gaming sessions, maps, and killers. I am just playing the game and keep getting flagged?! There must be something wrong with the system to cause it to flag someone who is playing the game, not just hiding or staying in the same spot the whole time...
