Sticky Ban

Post by Alexshreds » 16 Feb 2018, 01:32

Your Byond ID: Alexshreds

Character Name: Detlev Kramer

Type Of Ban (Job-ban (include the job), Timed Ban, Permaban): Sticky?/IP-Ban

Admin who banned you (if known): Probably automated

Total Ban Duration: Perma

What other servers do you play on?

- All of them

Are you now or have you been banned on any servers? Which ones?

- I believe from TG some years ago. Never bothered to appeal though.

Reason for ban (If you have a Permaban, it should be the EXACT MESSAGE YOU GET WHEN YOU LOGIN with the Error code that looks like this: X##XXX##. If you do not provide this EXACTLY you can't be unbanned): "A11JUN17: Multikeying, Banevading"

Your appeal, including evidence (screenshots, etc):

I have a VPN called CyberGhost and use it when I do anything online except for certain things, like SS13, as I'm on a college campus. It runs in the background most of the time and on startup, automatically replacing my IP without warning. To keep this from happening I have to remember to open it up and make sure i'm not connected to its service and then shut it down, but alas sometimes I forget. There have been times I was connected but not sticky banned so it wasn't always my number one priority. I don't have a secondary BYOND account nor tried evading anything. I'll try to keep this from happening again.

Did you just get hit with the ban recently or was this a bit back?

It happened yesterday, so very recent.

I should also say that the last note I have shouldn't be there. I was the CE mentioned and reported the guy for grief but slc mixed up our ckeys and banned me instead. He quickly fixed that once he realized but I guess the note stayed.

I'll talk to Slc about that. Did the ban come in when you tried to log in with the VPN, so right away, or like a day after?

Well, the day before I played with my VPN on (unknowingly) and turned it off mid game and reconnected just fine. Yesterday it turned itself on again and once I connected I was banned.

Aw yeah, I remember that case, yeah I just double checked the logs and you were the CE, so we can clear that right up and scrub the note as soon as we handle the sticky.

Have you been active, in general, since June or did you take a break for a few months?

I did take a break for some time but it was most likely after June. I have only started using a VPN since around September though.

Well from what I can tell, it mostly just seems like a mistake you didn't mean to happen, so I can support this getting lifted, though know it may take some time on Apop's side as these things can take a while to fix.

Ok, pushing this into investigation. We'll check all your login records and if you never logged in with those from your IP or CID i should get this cleared up quickly.
