seat balance locked

so the other night, mid-session, i got a popup that my seat balance was locked. now i get it, security checks and all, but there was no warning or cooldown. it just froze everything during a pretty heated spin, which seemed weirdly timed. i’ve seen chat talking about it before but never had it myself, so wasn’t ready for the sudden lock. i’ve always figured the balance lock is mainly for detecting suspicious jumps in play, maybe to stall while they review. in theory it keeps games fair and stops funny business.

but here’s where i start doubting, what about the timing? why lock it specifically after a string of repeat outside hits? could be coincidence, sure, but it feels a bit like a cold shower when you're catching a pattern. not saying it’s rigged or anything, but if anyone else has seen their balance freeze right when they started picking up pace, i’d be curious to hear what led up to it.
