Akabinxstar PermaBan appeal

[AkaBinxstar]

Your Byond ID: Akabinxstar

Character Name: Walter 'Hollywood' Colt

Type Of Ban (Job-ban (include the job), Timed Ban, Permaban): Experimental SUPERBAN

Admin who banned you (if known): Automated banning system

Total Ban Duration: Indefinite

Remaining Duration: Indefinite

What other servers do you play on? None other than CM.

Are you now or have you been banned on any servers? Which ones? I don't play on any other servers to be banned.

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 host: 0000XX1 - This is the Multikeyer and Evasion Superban. If you are seeing this, it is because you have been tagged as a Multikeyer, Evader, or VPN user. You may have also been tagged if you use WINE as griefers have been using it. To get this ban processed or lifted, goto the CM forums and post your Ckey in the Ban Appeal area under the EXPERIMENTAL SUPERBAN THREAD. It will get checked a soon a soon as I see it, as we will check it against the Bans that have been combined to this.

Your appeal, including evidence (screenshots, etc):
I was using a VPN unblocked during school so that I could actually get play ss13, I must have not read the server rules well enough, because I didn't remember anything about VPNs being against the rules, So it caught me by surprise to see that I was banned.

No notes on the person.

But lets be real, if you read the rules you would know VPN isn't allowed, it's literally highlighted in yellow and it's like, 5th line or so, or you could've just searched VPN.

STRICTLY FORBIDDEN.

But who knows, maybe apop will still do something about it.

[AkaBinxstar]

I admit that my reading of the rules was not to completion, I did read what the rule name was, but I didn't read the actual statement following.

Have you used a VPN to post on our forums? Be advised, I can check all the IPs you've posted with, so be truthful. Cause if you say no, and I check and find you did...

[AkaBinxstar]

I use two different VPNs, One is a browser VPN, the other is the one I downloaded recently to try and play CM, I deleted the one I used to try and play CM, and the browser one is the one that I actively use. I only use it during school hours, And I'll usually leave it on afterwords, so I might have used it while posting on the forums, I'm not sure.

[Emeraldblood]

If you throw a post down without any VPNs on here it would probably help, assuming you haven't already done so at one point.

[AkaBinxstar]

I'm pretty sure this post doesn't have a VPN on it

[Emeraldblood]

Right. Apop will get around to this in the next few days when he's free. I don't know if it's been asked but have you always been using a VPN on the server? If so, how often did you get onto the server with it being on?

[AkaBinxstar]

I actually never used a VPN on the server before.

[Emeraldblood]

So the first time you tried is what pulled the super ban on to you? How long have you been on the server prior to pulling the ban?

[AkaBinxstar]

Yeah, The first time I used a VPN that I had downloaded to my computer was the time I got banned. I'd say I've played on the server for about 2 weeks, If you are talking about my time in the actual game that I got banned, I'm not sure, it banned me when I tried to play.

[apophis775]

You probably used a shitty free VPN, which is what got you caught. Nearly all the free VPNs are used by griefers and the like, so they are tagged and dump you into the multikey ban.

You have no notes, or tags anywhere else so I adjusted this.

Let me know if it doesn't work.

[AkaBinxstar]

I think there is still an IP ban? Because I can still play, but my cousin can't play on her own computer

[apophis775]

That's correct. I only unbanned your account, your cousin has to make their own appeal.

Marking this resolved.
