Your appeal, including evidence (screenshots, etc):
Well unfortunately I do not really know what evidence I can provide But I can tell you what happened. On 11/16/2017 At approximately 8:10 PM EST. When I got on I pop up box opened and said something about another user using my Ckey and that I could be banned for it(not actually sure what that is by the way). I thought this might be an error with BYOND so I closed down the game and restarted it. I got the same message. I believe I closed and restarted one more time, just in case. After clearing the popup I sent an adminhelp message saying what was going on, that I had received this message. Skysoldier (at least I belive it was Skysoldier, as he contacted me later) received the message and basically said to sit tight while he looked into it. After about an hour and a half went by (I continued playing in the round) Skysoldier messaged me back and said that it was basically impossible for it to happen by accident and that he would have to ban both of our accounts and that I could appeal the banning. After answering a few of my questions about the appeal process and if I should be concerned about my password security for me I was banned with this message.

You have been banned by skysoldier.

Connection died.

And that is what is leading up to this appeal. Now I don't quite know how or why this has happened. I only have the one BYOND account. No one else in my household is old enough to play video games (single dad). I play frequently on this server but I'm in my mid-thirty's, I know not to share any type of personal information. I've only ever logged onto BYOND on my personal computer and ex-wife's computer, but the latter was years ago and likely doesn't even exist anymore. And have never logged onto this specific server from anywhere else. As far as I can see it that only leaves a few options, either someone has maliciously hacked my account somehow and I have no idea why anyone would do that, or it is somehow a random, nearly impossible occurrence.

Thank you for taking the time to look over my appeal.

This is gonna be interesting.
Do you use WINE or a VPN?

[Grimcad]

I do not use either of those things.

[Grimcad]

Just a friendly bump to show I'm still Interested in getting this researched and appealed. I know that you and your team are working on it apophis and this is in no way meant to rush you, as I understand perfectly well where this falls on the list of priorities, but I have seen an appeal die before due to lack of communication from the person appealing and do not wish for that to happen me.

Than you all again for taking the time to look over my appeal.

[Emeraldblood]

We're still aware of the case, just things like these are going to take some time. A lot of logs need to be searched through so you'll just have to hold on for a bit.

[freemysoul]

Ok, while I dig through the logs and check it through, I need to ask some questions.

1. Do you use a Mac computer/laptop/netbook?
1a. Do you use any form of Macwrapper?
2. Do you use a Modified version of Byond?

[Grimcad]

1. No I do not use a Mac/laptop/netbook.
1. No (don't know what that one even is).
2. I just use the version of Byond straight from their website.

[apophis775]

Are you still getting a ban message?

[Grimcad]

Just attempted to log on, and no, I do not have the ban message.
Should take this as a "you are no longer banned"? Or should I stay off for a while longer until you can figure out why this happened in the first place?

[Emeraldblood]

If you don't have a ban message and you can log into the server normally, it's lifted. He's asking if you can log into the server or not.

[Grimcad]

Well then yes, I can definitely log into the server.

And thank you to everyone who took the time to look over my case.

[apophis775]

Resolved.
