Permaban (Superban) Appeal - Lukismness
Your Byond ID: lukismness
Character Name: John 'Bear' Manaux
Type Of Ban (Job-ban (include the job), Timed Ban, Permaban): Permaban
Admin who banned you (if known): By host
Total Ban Duration: Perma
Remaining Duration: Perma
What other servers do you play on? Paradise
Are you now or have you been banned on any servers? Which ones? *edit* Job-banned from PO - lifted.
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): Banned by Superban - Multikeying/Evasion (most probably from logging in from separate IP locations within quick succession.)
Link to previous appeals for the same ban (if applicable):
Your appeal, including evidence (screenshots, etc):
I currently use two separate internet connections due to having terrible Australian regional ISP connections - and as such, I have an ADSL and NextG connection. ADSL is used after hours/when nobody is home and NextG is used when the wife and daughter are using netflix/youtube. I've never had this issue before, but I logged into CM while I was on my ADSL connection, and quickly disconnected and logged in with my NextG, completely forgetting about it.
I can't use NextG all the time due to the 10GB monthly limit, where as my ADSL connection is unlimited, and obviously I would prefer my ADSL but can't stand the lag. This may change in a few months when they finally roll out fibre to the area (but who knows when that'll be).

Re: Permaban (Superban) Appeal - Lukismness
When I was filling it out, I was thinking banned from the server, not being banned in any ways. Edited post to reflect this.

Re: Permaban (Superban) Appeal - Lukismness
You don't use any VPN or anything on top of that, correct? It's just most likely due to switching networks really fast?

No VPN - and yeah, I ended up with a connection error while trying to get into CM, so I switch over to my other network. Then when trying to get back in I received the ban message

Apop is gonna have to look into it. He should get to you within the next few days. If it's just a network problem from being on at the same time, it should be relatively easy to notice and fix.

Re: Permaban (Superban) Appeal - Lukismness
So, the superban would not ban from logging in from multiple locations quickly. It would however, detect a VPN or something along those lines.
Have you, or anyone who shares your connection used a VPN to login to CM? Cause that is usually what happens with the superban. You use a connection that is tagged as a multikeyer.

WINE or a pirated copy of windows?
Those are the other 2 main reasons.

Re: Permaban (Superban) Appeal - Lukismness
Neither - I had probably played on the CM servers for about 2 or so weeks prior to the ban, and many moons ago too, using the same two connections without any issues.
Also, I'm able to still go on Paradise without problems - but this only occurred when I did the quick switch while logging onto CM.
If I recall, the reason I switched network connections was due to the ad that pops up while waiting to connect to the lobby had a loading error, and I thought my net had dropped out.

Re: Permaban (Superban) Appeal - Lukismness
If I recall, Byond shouldn't allow you to connect to the server under the same account if you're already connected to the server. You didn't swap accounts or anything between this, right?

Re: Permaban (Superban) Appeal - Lukismness
No, I only have this account - I'm pretty sure when I changed networks it was when I received this error, which prompted me to think that my family was destroying my bandwidth:

Re: Permaban (Superban) Appeal - Lukismness
But you never actually entered the server officially before switching networks? Did you exit the Byond connecting window before you switched networks or did you leave that up while you swapped networks? Apop will have more insight on what may have happened but I think if Byond did connect and just not inform you, it may has set both of your IPs into the round which then set off the system.

I didn't enter the server officially, no - I left that screen up, so it probably thought I was connected. I assumed it had disconnected me and switched networks, so I didn't think too much of it at the time. Cheers.

Re: Permaban (Superban) Appeal - Lukismness
Can't say that's really what caused it for sure, but that's my theory. Apop will be able to follow up on what he's got in the next few days.

Re: Permaban (Superban) Appeal - Lukismness
Ok, that message means the connection is blocked outside Byond.
I see you have connected to the forums from about 12 different IPs.
There's a very good possibility your IPS are within a range that is banned by our firewall. Are you 100% sure you do not have a Proxy, VPN, or VPS buffering your connection?

Re: Permaban (Superban) Appeal - Lukismness
I don't have a proxy, VPN or VPS at home - I do have a proxy at work, but can't play from my work PC anyways. I can access Paradise fine from home, but not too sure if the firewall rules you use are much different to theirs.
I usually access the forums from home, work and on my mobile - so it doesn't really reflect my Byond access.
147.209.**.** - Work (no Byond access)
203.170.**.** - At Work but not work (we have our own non-proxy IP address range so we can do personal stuff). I have used this to access Byond on my gaming laptop, but only when I do night shift/weekend, but this is rare.
49.197.**.** - Mobile phone (I've tethered this up to my PC, but very rarely)
When I get home tonight I can PM here or on discord my current home IP address that hopefully would indicate what IP ranges I would normally access Byond with. At the moment I don't use static IPs, but this may change come June when I get fibre.
Cheers!

Re: Permaban (Superban) Appeal - Lukismness
We use custom firewall rules I wrote.
If you don't have a static IP, it may not be possible to fix until you have one, since I'd have to go and remove loads of IPs or adjust rules.

Re: Permaban (Superban) Appeal - Lukismness
Fair enough, I won't be able to get static IPs on my current services - So I'll let you know next month when I hopefully get a better connection. Thanks!
**edit** Are you able to go off my current mobile IP address if I can provide you that as an indicator of the range that I would use until I get a static address?
I would just use my mobile phone net to access CM etc. (I have a 30Gb data plan on my mobile).

Re: Permaban (Superban) Appeal - Lukismness
Attempt to log into the server and let us know if your ban has been lifted or it has shifted. If we don't get any response then I'm going to assume you're not banned anymore and you'll have to appeal again if you are.
